Fizz: Your Authentic Community Positive Reviews

Useful but brokenI am an avid user and early adopter of this app at my school, and I really enjoy it, it fixes so many things I dislike about social media and even when it’s stupid I still find useful info about what is happening on my campus faster than any other medium. However, it does have a major problem, and that is blocking. I have a stalker who was able to identify my posts, and even after I blocked my stalker comments were still viewable to them. I still get notifications when they call me out by name on comments or reFizzes and the only solution would be to irreversibly delete my account. While I can understand why this is a more difficult issue to fix than it seems this should be a development priority and until then I can only say: download this app, but post nothing.LordgronkVersion: 1.12.22

FrustratedI found this app about a week or so ago and i’ve grown to love it, but they updated posting amounts by making you “wait a FEW MINUTES” before making a post after you’ve posted 3 within like a half hour to an hour? 🤨 Sometimes I just have a lot on my mind and want to post so why am I being put in time out just leaving and reentering the app every few minutes to try to post again. I’m not exactly sure how long it makes you wait because usually I leave the app out of frustration because I can’t post on it (yasss user engagement!). I get spamming issues, but maybe there should be a cooldown for people flagged for spam by… MODERATORS? Why am I forced to be shut up by an app who spreads… community? Socialization? Also the way I can’t even use my handle anymore for ALL of my posts? 🤔 What was the point of this change? So now not only are my posts unable to be verifiably posted by ME, but I truly don’t understand the point? Can other people not just enter their pseudonym as my handle? I don’t know… but I do know that i’m getting frustrated with the updates 😩 Just let me post freely please!!!.Taylorp04Version: 1.13.23

Some recommendationsI use Fizz often and I have a few badges left to collect, though the “SIMP” badge doesn’t seem to be functioning properly. I’ve had the top post of the day several times with the crush category but it doesn’t unlock it for me. Additionally, the badges are my incentive to keep posting so I would love if there was more for me to accomplish. Maybe make one for being at the top of the leaderboard? Or make one for tons of down votes? That would be hilarious and challenging. Also my friends with samsung devices really want fizz but they are unable to get it. The last thing I might recommend is a chat option for mods to communicate and also help make the platform safer and more user friendly. Thanks Fizz, Looking forward to the next update!.BacelightVersion: 1.13.121

Fun, exciting, relevantAt my school (Stanford), everyone I know is on Fizz. I use the app mostly for campus news and memes. It’s really fast paced because there’s literally a new post every minute but that’s what makes it good. The DMs are also pretty useful if you want to get advice from others while staying anonymous. A couple suggestions: allow people to send images in DMs, allow posting of videos.Slowninja5Version: 1.5.1

BugCool app but a bug is making the experience impossible. After a while of using the all, I realized I couldn’t delete DM conversations, as each time I refreshed, they would reappear. Then I noticed that as I was getting new messages, I wasn’t able to open the conversations. To see if it would help, I deleted and reinstalled the app, and now none of my conversations will load, even if I start new ones. The DM feature is completely broken, and I’ve lost contact with some friends I was messaging. Posting and commenting works fine, at least. Even if the moderation lets bigoted posts through now and then..Juryrig16Version: 1.13.27

My Favorite AppI legitimately use Fizz more than instagram, snap, and tiktok combined lol. There's new content all the time and it's all so funny and relatable. Plus the different features and different kinds of posts are so cool and endlessly entertaining! If you're not on Fizz you're missing out on one of the best ways to be part of campus culture and community imo.AliDrewsVersion: 1.5.3

Great replacement for what YikYak used to be!Works great, I like the tags features and organizations that are all from my school. Glad there is something like this when YikYak got bought and became worse. My one suggestion that I’d like to see implemented would be to be able to pick which campus you are on, within the school, and be able to only see fizz posts from your campus..IanhamboneVersion: 1.13.39

Why am I getting mutedI really enjoy this app however I got muted for an hour for some reason and it said because of spam posts but the last post I had made before this was 20 minutes prior and as far as I can tell none of my posts were taken down. I wish there was an appeal process because I definitely feel like I was unfairly muted.Okblue12135*Version: 1.13.59

I need more than 200 charactersI should not have to make whole refizz chain just to finish one thought. Why did you shorten the character limit for no reason?.RuthAnn107Version: 1.13.98

The app is beneficial but messy and bullyingThe app has its benefits when it comes to getting information fast…… but it soons turn into a platform that people who go to the university and who don’t go to the university to hide behind anonymous messages and expose people business or even bully those because they have an option of being anonymous.Kayla06.hallVersion: 1.12.22

My TestimonyI used to be down in the trenches. I was a hardcore trapper. Then I discovered fizz. Fizz has changed my life. People talk about finding God and how God changed their life. I found fizz instead. Sincerely - Your local trapstar.Hardcore TrapstarVersion: 1.13.10

EDITING!!Unfortunately I be on this app. I wish I could edit stuff after I post to add tags or possibly even change a post from anonymous to showing my handle. Would be a much appreciated addition to the app..Mochibella123Version: 1.13.22

So addicting !!The fizz culture at stanford is so fun and entertaining ! Seems like everyone is on it w all the helpful campus updates and memes HAHAH Only thing I’d say is it could be more organized thru filtered tags.Fizz userVersion: 1.5.3

Great start, some suggestionsI really enjoy using the app and have gotten a lot out of it. The search results need to be cleaned up a bit (ex: “RA” returns posts about rabbits) and it would be nice to sort posts by their tags (confession, dub, etc)..Go_GiantsVersion: 1.3.1

So many bugs and glitchesPls fix... It's extremely glitchy on my Iphone XS Max. Randomly quitting app, when I start up there's only one post on top and its randomly on light mode when the app is set to dark mode. just so many weird things like that..078967453Version: 1.11.9

Useful but glitchyFizz has been so fun for our school during the past couple of months. it wasn’t until after recent updates, fizz has been acting very strange. people are unable to post with their leaderboard handles, people have been able to use others’ handles, and posts have been randomly deleted from the feed. fizz has a lot of bug fixes that need to be taken care of!.User nicoleVersion: 1.13.94

Fizz: Your Authentic Community Negative Reviews

ZERO STARS HONESTLYAll this all does is allow people to bring people down and silence the people actually posting for help. This app has done nothing but make colleges degrade others. Other than people posting about wanting “s3x” it’s just people bullying others and spreading rumors. but everytime i post about s3xua1 assu1t and predators, the post is taken down. By far, if this app was never created maybe our campus would actually talk and learn communication skills instead of staring at a screen making us act like middle schoolers that weren’t raised right. adding on, we cannot even post news about the school or school events or names without it it getting taken down but people post nudes and who is the hottest and has the best body and can cuss eachother out and there is no problem. i will not be emailing anyone. at the end of the day this app only allows bullying, child p0rn0graphy, and turns students against eachother instead of us coming together and facing real problems..Baleigh_yahVersion: 1.13.150

Harsh PunishmentsI just got muted for the second week in a row because people want to abuse the moderation system. I just got muted AGAIN for absolutely no reason! An anonymous person made a post that said “does anybody want some head this morning” and I JOKINGLY SAID “did you brush your teeth yet?” And I just got muted for ANOTHER WEEK after being unmuted from a the PAST week!! And you guys never responded after telling me to send you guys an email. And the reason why my post was got removed doesn’t even correlate to what was said!!! The report system is being ABUSED. This is getting ridiculous. Update: I just deleted fizz because I keep getting banned every other day for absolutely nothing. I feel like I’m being targeted by the developers and walking on eggshells making posts because I don’t know what’s gonna get me banned for a week and what’s not. It’s overkill at this point..TotallyQuotable😍Version: 1.13.114

PSA:Do not get this app! I got it about a month ago, and it was already starting to negatively affect my mental health. The anonymity removes any consequence for what is posted; I have seen people take others photos without permission and post things that are clearly not permitted according to the app’s community guidelines. They claim to have regulations but frankly I don’t see those being enforced nearly enough for the app to be safe. It makes me feel paranoid that someone will take a photo of me without permission and post it if I do anything to stand out. I was way better off not knowing that students at my school were so toxic, and it’s hard for me to trust anyone I don’t already know. It honestly makes me wonder if they just made an extra step that says not to post inappropriate content but didn’t pay to have anyone moderate anything. For this app to be safe, the regulations it claims to have need to be enforced!!!.Bekah965Version: 1.13.98

Terrible performanceI’d give negative points if possible for the deplorable use of AI to “auto detect breach of ToS”. The app could be so cool and useful if it weren’t for the fact that every little thing triggers the AI to suspending and muting my account. Mention the President of my schools last name informing others of how he’s financially crippling the school in a cordial manner? I’m putting “personal info” out there that could hurt him. Tell people he’s using campus resources for selfish projects that benefit no one but him when the schools struggling financially? I’m silenced because I put him in jeopardy. Say me and someone were sucking toes, I’m apparently harassing people. Your app is a dud, stop using AI to skim comments because it keeps giving false readings of what’s an actual offense and what’s legitimate content. I’ve gotten my comments and posts removed 5-10 times (whatever leads to a 24 hour mute) and each of them is because of a false reading..FmoszhjurcbnmxfooVersion: 1.13.68

Lack of moderationFizz is fun and everything until you factor in the fact that it’s full of young adults that know no boundaries. Moderation is lacking and sometimes the mods flag things that don’t even violate guidelines but they’ll let racist, sexist, or even posts threatening violence go. I tried to let it go but it turned into a cesspool really fast. It promotes a mob mentality and another status quo that people, especially college students, love. However, just because they love it doesn’t mean it’s good. Bullying is very prevalent, inciting violence is also prevalent. There were posts promoting mowing protesters down, doxxing was promoted, and more. I got tired, deleted my account, and I don’t plan on ever creating another. This is a social app that allows people to put others down for the simplest things and no one is watching and no one cares..C.f. FNAFVersion: 1.12.25

TerribleSo I was hired as a mod for Fizz a few weeks ago, did an interview, signed the contract and everything with one of the higher ups, attended one of the training sessions which were from 9-11pm on Friday night, admittedly couldn’t stay for the entire session, left after 30-40 minutes, and then the morning of the day of the launch I was secretly removed from my role with no context and told I was no longer a moderator. When I asked why I fired, they told me it was because I didn’t stay the full session last Friday night? There was no warning that you would be fired if you could not stay the full session, or how long the session would be for. I just don’t understand. I stayed for a good majority of the session and even have the notes and slides on how to be a mod. This organization is run by a bunch of greedy cowards..ScjkscvjtedvVersion: 1.12.7

Fake/ai generated contentWhen launching at my school, the administration is obviously using fake engagement to boost the app. Everything from fake likes (over 300 in 1 hour from an app that no one has) to fake posts that are just verge college memes with the school name thrown into it. I was genuinely excited to see something like YikYak without all the things that I hate about YikYak, but for some god awful reason we need to be propping up our dead anonymous app with instagram screenshots of girls who go to the school with captions “she’s so fine” or names of people I know with a “crush” flare next to it. All with over 100 likes despite the fact that no one at my school would like that stuff. TLDR: this app is dead internet theory out in full force. Save your time, don’t even entertain it in its current state..BigMac027Version: 1.13.105

AwfulThis is the worst app I have ever come across. Blatant bullying, harmful, inappropriate, unsolicited photos of young kids, and hateful words being said about kids. This app is marketed towards young adults in college and is creating pain, drama, and creates rumors that are either extremely harmful to the victim or simply just false. The reporting feature on the app has a button that allows you to try to take down these awful posts… but they still stay up no matter what the post is. This anonymous app is just another resource for cyber bullying and an extremely harmful one. I would seriously advice this app being taken down or remodeled because it has taken a tole on the lives of many young adults’ mental health and well being..Janice)&$Version: 1.12.7

It needs moderation or somethingGive hormonal college students the ability to post anonymous seemingly unmoderated posts about anything they’d like, what do you think will happen. Most posts are overly sexual, people trying to find drugs, and as one of the other reviews stated, the app seems prone to inadvertently support bullying. There is a good chunk people seemingly genuinely interested in the app, sharing information about misc topics or sharing memes. I was impressed with how effective their launch was and the amount of users they got using the app. I think this app has a lot of promise but in its current state I find the app a little disgusting, nothing to do with the devs or the team, just a matter of how it’s users are currently using the app..NX22222Version: 1.13.23

Bullying and misinformation galoreDon’t use this app, all people do is bully and mock students by taking photos of them/their belongings without their consent. This happened to my sibling who used to go to Samford. Someone took a photo of him and typed out a bunch of misinformation about him that was just so blatantly false and it somehow got a bunch of upvotes, which I assume is all ai. These people need to be held accountable for their lies and bullying, get rid of the whole “Anonymous” name feature to your app and hopefully it will die down a bit. Only a coward would take pleasure in bullying others and spreading misinformation behind the name “Anonymous”..ThatonequietgurlVersion: 1.13.85

Blatantly full of botsAfter a disastrous launch where basically no one joined the app, the posts fell off entirely after about a month. Around a month before my college’s fall quarter, when other colleges started their fall quarters, there was a huge influx of posts talking about being in class and calling the college by the wrong name. The obvious bots never repost or reply, and posts started getting hundreds of upvotes after a summer of maybe 10 max. The developers clearly use bots to make their app seem more alive, and it ruins the point of this app..TrayourasVersion: 1.13.106

New update :/You now can’t turn off the OP button when commenting on your own post, and you can only post under one name. For example, I run a student organization that has a handle, and if I comment on one post using it, I can’t then comment as an anonymous user — so I’m stuck replying formally as my organization and unable to comment as myself informally. This update is awful for student organizations and makes anonymity worse, and isn’t that the whole point of the app, even if they meed your email to sign up?.All Names Are Taken ⭐️Version: 1.13.32

BullyingThe anonymity allows college students to target other students at college campuses and bully them. Ever since this all has been released on my campus, it has been nothing but homophobic, racist, and harassment posts. There’s supposed to be “moderators” but they can only do so much as they are students as well. Specific students are targeted daily and talked about/slandered. This app does not bring any benefits to colleges..Maners71Version: 1.13.40

An Evil AppAnonymous posting on a college campus? How could that possibly be harmful?😏 Whatever this app puts itself out there as being, it is not. There is nothing wholesome about it. It allows anonymous cowards to post malicious mis-information with the intent to harm. And harm it does… My family is victim to this and the company takes no responsibility. It has no contact information and it’s leadership does not respond to inquiries…at least not so far. Avoid this app. It is everything that is wrong with social media. Universities should band together in opposition. At the very least, hold people accountable who post hateful and damaging information. Just disgraceful. I will give it one star only because a rating is required to post. It does not deserve even that..RJW651Version: 1.12.5

Bring back rank!! make the UI less crowded!!People liked the leaderboard, it was a part of fizz culture in a sense. also, the UI is very cramped as of lately. the buttons are overly large and everything has big circles around it now, the og was better. please fix this!! also, when u scroll down on your posts the tab at the top bugs out in unpredictable ways..Im gonna regret this nicknameVersion: 1.12.26

Bullying platformMy mental health has been god awful thanks to the things others are *anonymously* saying about myself and other students on here. The amount of bullying that flies free on here is ridiculous for an app that’s designed to bring people together. Harassment, people making repulsive statements about children, rumor spreading, and a disgusting disregard from users for how their words/actions impact others. This app should be removed from the App Store..ThismfrightVersion: 1.13.152

AwfulFizz is an app used at college- they reached out to those college students to be a moderator- the students were expected to post 30+ times a day about where parties were and things like that. There was a payment monthly until it was decided they no longer wanted you as a moderator! The people who run it are impossible to get in contact with. Also ridiculous they are promoting underage drinking and partying.DF23VFLFVersion: 1.13.27

Reflects the worst of humanityI don’t understand how people can be happy with themselves while consistently making fun of and bullying the same people: individuals that they’re aware are likely on the app and seeing every post about them. An unmoderated, anonymous platform for contained, university campuses allows anything to fly free, and promotes a culture that will destroy people’s lives for a cheap laugh shaming anyone who suggests literal simple decency and an acknowledgment of basic human dignity..A.graf.Version: 1.13.39

Risk of CyberbullyingI’m new to this app but even just the first few posts on my feed verbally abused college students and made fun of kids, classes, and professors. In light of rising mental health issues on my campus, apps with anonymous content and active bullying are dangerous. I don’t understand why the issue of bullying on this app isn’t taken more seriously—we need to do better to protect communities of college students. App deleted on my end..😇😜😝Version: 1.5.12

The worstYesterday I was laid off by FIZZ along with all other mods at my college for no reason. I was doing what they asked and a few weeks after launch they pulled the plug on “paid moderators” and said they ended the program at my college. They always kept delaying the launch. I was hired in December and they kept on pushing off until they finally launched on March 28th. I was laid off April 19th so less than a month in.YueseffVersion: 1.13.68

New bad updates- the fake corporate posts that the app makes pretending to be people have been repeating over and over again and it's insane - the profile on the bottom left will make a little notification symbol even when there's nothing - the latest UI is ugly. Please bring the old back. It's sooooo ugly. - please implement a drafts feature.GracefulDonut🐼🐼🐼Version: 1.13.133

Fake engagementThe upvote count on some posts is quite literally higher than my entire campus population. They fake their engagement and upvotes to try to create buzz and make them look successful, when in reality, this app is clearly failing and grasping for any engagement that people will give them. Would recommend any other app out there before this, it’s just bad practice..Fuzer123Version: 1.13.3

Unmoderated mess, fake engagementFizz is an unmoderated mess. in my school’s fizz i constantly see transphobic, homophobic, and sexist content. i’ve also had a friend bullied multiple times on the app. anonymity brings out the worst in everyone. the content that isn’t bad is fake, with the votes inflated 5x, and the same posts made by the fizz team posted to all their school communities at once. they also pay their moderation team to make fake posts in the app, which seems like what the spend their time doing rather than actually moderating. would not recommend brining this app to your school, it’s bad for the culture..Nicholas_ffVersion: 1.11.0

Insufferable moderatorsAs other reviews mentioned, at best this is an app for bullying.. However, the moderation system makes the app unusable. They allow flagrant bullying while they mute others for extremely petty or biased reasons. Not to mention they have an appeals process that they've self proclaimed to be fully inept. Overall i'd avoid this app entirely..Soulfood88Version: 1.13.126

Phone Number Verification BugPhone number verification locks you out of account. I already verified my phone number but there is currently not button to sign in, and the app is either broken or developers had a serious lack over oversight when adding phone number verification..Egs1173Version: 1.13.127

ModeratersThis app is cool and so is the idea, but the moderators are either biased, neglectful, or just plain flawed. Why am I getting banned because I don’t agree with someone, or I’m voicing my opinion. I don’t write hate and yet I’ll get a post taken down for a complete made up or random reason just to take it down, so something abt these moderators.FuxkfizzVersion: 1.13.26

CesspoolI think this is the most toxic app on the planet. Want to see the worst in people? This is the app for you. Petty drama, bullying and laughing at people. Like the worst parts of reddit, twitter, and yik-yak all put together. Speaking of which, nothing about this app is an original concept. Garbage through-and-through. Have fun trying to be the next Zuckerberg or whatever..HddikvfVersion: 1.13.68
