Review summary

Users appreciate Selfcast's unique concept and frequent casting opportunities, with some reporting success in campaigns and praising responsive support. However, major issues include persistent bugs, especially with uploading media on Android devices, forced subscriptions seen as unreasonable, frequent crashes, login problems, and lack of basic usability features like translation and filters. These drawbacks severely limit the app's effectiveness and leave users frustrated.

Pros

Offers many opportunities for casting with daily postings.
Quick and helpful customer support responses.
Good concept and intuitive system idea.
Successful placement in commercial campaigns leading to international filming opportunities.

Cons

Unable to upload photos and videos from Android devices, hindering application for jobs.
App is buggy, crashing frequently especially on photo/video uploads.
Requires a monthly subscription to apply for jobs, unlike other casting agencies, raising suspicion among users.
Poor app performance: slow loading, freezing, and login issues, including inability to reset password or delete account.
Lacks essential features like language translation, job filtering, and proper data management options.

2024-10-05	An*****	There are many opportunities that are posted daily in the app. I was lucky to get selected for a commercial campaign that led me to filming in Georgia, Abu Dhabi and Serbia.

2023-09-05	Di*****	Great idea, but it doesn't work on my Android phone.... How hard can it be to fix the app in 2023... I have to do crazy trick in order to do anything in this app... And I am paying monthly subscribtion on top of that... Its just rediculous...

2023-05-10	Ng*****	Been trying to get the app to work but no success. Uploading pictures is impossible and the app shuts itself down every time you try to add one.

2023-03-02	Er*****	I had problems uploading pictures...I think that says it all. In an app for casting is probably the number 1 thing It should do right.

2023-01-04	Ka*****	Can't upload pictures and video, so that means - can't apply for the jobs. Now you need even to pay for subscription, so it would be great if for my money I can use the app properly, not only pay for nothing. Unfortunately, now it's absolutely useless

2022-11-28	Os*****	You need to pay a monthly subscription fee the apply to the roles. Sounds suspiciously like a SCAM to me! Especially as no other casting agency does this. Makes you doubt if they actually have any roles to offer and just collect the subscription fees for a nice steady income... :(

2022-10-05	Ve*****	As of now, you need to pay money to apply for jobs in Selfcast - which is something other casting agencies (in Finland) don't normally do, so safe to say it might be better to leave this app alone simply because of this fact. The app seems to be non-functional buggy, slow and has not allowed something so simple as an upload of a video for a casting opportunity - something the application is "designed" for. As this isn't the first time, it's quite clear the app isn't cared for as it should.
