User Reviews

Users praise Patreon for podcast listening and for enabling creator support, but report frequent reliability issues on Android. The top pain points are media playback and casting problems (Chromecast), lagging and buffering with download-related crashes, and recurring login or error messages. Several reviews also cite updates or monetization as sources of frustration, including fees and a perception that the app isn’t stable or data-efficient. Despite the positives, these core usability problems undermine a smooth experience for many users.
Pros
  • Excellent for listening to podcasts; many reviewers rely on it as their main podcast app.
  • Positive for connecting with and supporting creators; valued for the community aspect and funding opportunities.
  • Strong overall user sentiment and affection for the app (reviews like 'it's the bomb', 'great app', 'I love this family').
  • Perceived value in enabling creators to reach and engage with their audience.
Cons
  • Video playback and casting problems, including Chromecast support not working.
  • Lagging, buffering, and download-related crashes that can brick the app.
  • Frequent media playback errors and login/authentication issues.
  • Monetization concerns and perceived excessive fees.
  • Instability after updates and ongoing reliability problems.
Recent reviews
The platform itself is great but recent updates have made navigation worse and introduced a bug where when I try to comment on posts my keyboard will open and immediately close. Opening the posts on a web browser (firefox) allows me to comment, but I feel the layout there is even worse so I'm stuck in this limbo of browsing in app and if I want to engage with the community having to track down the post in the web version and commenting there.

Good nexus for managing subscriptions for artists, but it has to be the buggiest, nonfunctional, and impossible-to-navigate app I have seen. I can't update payment methods. I can't browse a list of who I'm currently subscribed to. It takes an absurd amount of time to load anything. How is the app this piss-poor managed? Do they have an IT department? A software engineer? Monkey with a keyboard? This can't be the apex of art subscriptions.
