User Reviews

Users appreciate PaperKarma's concept and find it reduces junk mail and environmental waste with a user-friendly interface and responsive customer support. However, many report significant delays or failures in stopping unwanted mail, persistent junk mail from some senders, and technical issues in the app such as crashes and poor photo detection. Additional complaints include limited app functionality (like reordering recipients), confusing subscription management, and difficulties cancelling subscriptions. Overall, while effective for some, the app has consistent performance and usability concerns.

Pros

Effectively reduces the amount of junk mail for many users over time.
Simple, intuitive, and easy-to-use interface for unsubscribing from mail.
Customer service is generally kind, professional, and responsive.
Supports environmental benefits by reducing paper waste.
Subscription cost is reasonable for the service provided.

Cons

Long delay or ineffectiveness in stopping certain mailers, with some users receiving junk mail even after many months.
App crashes and technical issues, including problems taking photos within the app.
Limited app features such as inability to reorder mail recipients or modify subscription plans easily.
Auto detection of mailers from photos often fails; manual input is frequently required.
Subscription management and cancellation options are confusing or not directly available in the app.

Recent reviews

This app used to be excellent, but when I signed up today for a one-month subscription and went through a pile of about 15 things I don't want to be sent anymore, 100% of the time it did not find the company name and I had to look it up manually! Their automated scanning of the company name and matching is completely broken! They also do something kind of crummy where they won't let you add a new company to unsubscribe unless you pay for a 6+ month subscription. Lame. 😕

Photo recognition virtually never works, so taking a photo of the mailer feels like a waste of time. Very disappointing that in order to help expand PK's database you have to have a 6-12 month subscription. Monthly subs are unable to contribute, which makes no sense because PK benefits greatly from an expanded list of companies. Success of opt outs is silly. If the subscription cost increases at all without improved service, it wouldn't be worth it.
