User Reviews

BuzzBell is praised for urgent contact when phones are silent, easy setup, and peace of mind for families, especially in emergencies. It performs well for staying in touch across distances and for elders who don’t answer traditional calls. However, several reviews highlight problematic marketing practices—ambassadors who harass people on campus or in public and pressure users to download or invite others—which can undermine the app’s appeal despite its strong core functionality.
Pros
  • Reliable urgent communication even when the phone is on silent or in Do Not Disturb mode.
  • Improves connectivity with family and friends across distances, providing peace of mind.
  • Easy to set up and user-friendly, with a clean interface and features like Dark Mode.
  • Helpful for emergencies and for staying reachable by older parents and teens who don’t answer regular calls.
  • Buzz and Bell enable quick alerts and multi-channel contact (text, call, video).
Cons
  • Aggressive, unsolicited marketing by ambassadors, including campus outreach and street promotion.
  • Pressure to download or invite others and a sense of being trapped in conversations without clear disclosure.

I love this app! It’s the beat way to get someone’s attention when I need them!

My daughter moved across the country for work and we barely talked as her phone is always on silent so she would often miss my calls and messages. She told me to download BuzzBell and ever since, we've communicated so much better! We send each other Buzz and Bell messages when we need to get a hold of each other and call and video call each other too! It's so much faster and better than regular text and calls. We added the rest of our family and friends and everyone loves using it! I recommend!
