User Reviews

Overall, Growlr for iOS is seen as unstable and outdated. Reviewers repeatedly report bots and fake profiles, plus scams, which undermines trust. The UI is described as old and rarely updated. Moderation and bans are viewed as inconsistent or unfair, including false abuse reports. Technical issues are common: messages freezing or not loading, login or password reset problems, and occasional crashes. Billing problems also appear, with reports of double charges or unexpected subscription fees. A small number of users still praise real, long‑standing members and a safer content policy, but reliability and safety concerns dominate.
