User Reviews

Reviews for Locals on iOS show strong creator-first value with raw, unfiltered content and direct creator support. Users praise diverse content and independent journalism. However, the majority of feedback centers on reliability and usability issues: frequent buffering and slow loading on videos and streams; live streaming problems and limited chat/navigation during streams; sign-in/login and cross-device account issues (including Rumble integration); UI/UX drawbacks like small fonts and poor discovery tools; and monetization glitches such as coin purchases and subscription confusion. Overall, the platform is valued for its creator content, but reliability and usability must improve.

Pros

Raw, unfiltered creator content and a platform that supports creators directly.
Diverse content including independent journalism and posts from notable figures with fewer restrictions.
Value for money and direct creator support make Locals appealing.
Broad range of channels and community features that users appreciate.

Cons

Frequent buffering and long loading times on videos and streams; often requires restarting the app.
Live streaming issues, including a spinning wheel, chat usability problems, and limited scroll during streams.
Sign-in/login and account management problems across devices; cross-device issues with Rumble integration and password resets.
UI/UX/readability issues like small fonts, keyboard blocking, and poor discovery/navigation.
Monetization/payments issues such as coin purchases blocked for weeks and subscription confusion.

I can’t never even use the app because it never loads!

by Ni*****, 2026-07-04

Loading is terribly inconsistent and happens seemingly at random. Please do something about this, as it stands I’m only here for the creators I follow, and simply tolerate the app in order to watch them. The background play is appreciated and convenient, but I should not have to close out an app multiple times for it to work. We live in 2026, loading should not be this bad. I apologize for the harsh words, and I’m sure you guys are doing your best but this issue really needs attention.

Videos will play like normal and then will randomly stop and restart from the being. I’ve updated the app. I reinstalled and it’s still the same issue. I’m glad I only joined 1 Chanel group.
