User Reviews

Users praise Name Shark for helping learn and remember names by linking them with photos and for its intuitive, engaging design. The app is valued in education/group contexts, with games/scoreboard features that boost motivation. However, repeated issues dominate feedback: the paid sharing feature often fails or is unusable; the app crashes and freezes; there’s little or no updates or support; and some users suffer data loss or unrecoverable groups after issues. Reliability and support gaps hinder usability despite a strong concept.

Pros

Terrific app; intuitive and helpful for connecting names with faces.
Useful for education/group settings (teachers and students) to memorize names.
Games and scoreboard features add engagement and motivation.
Nice platform with a solid concept for learning names.

Cons

Paid sharing feature is broken or unusable; users are charged without receiving the service and refunds are unclear.
App crashes and freezes, especially when adding photos or attempting to share.
No ongoing updates or active support; appears abandoned for years.
Support contact methods are unreliable or nonfunctional.
Data loss or inability to recover groups after reinstall or issues.

It is imopossible to add a photo of a new person. GameShark doe not open my camera, nor does it give me access to my photo library.

The sharing option that you have to pay for does not work and there is zero response or any type of service to get your money back. The free part of the app would be great if it worked consistently, but it freezes up constantly when you want to enter a new name. The only advantage is you do have an easier time remembering people’s names because you have to REenter it 600 times into this app. LOL

I love this app and I pay for it every year, but it doesn’t seem to be updating? I have submitted emails and assistance, but not hearing anything back. Would gladly change my rating if someone reached out to me and helped me with my purchase.
