LinkedIn: Community & Network Positive Reviews

What title could a review possibly have?I like LinkedIn because it allows me to connect with wonderful people I have had a very very good experience with LinkedIn and interestingly though I never asked for a review because I never really cared because I never really thought I was gonna be jobless and only one person ever gave me a review and his name was Patrick O’Malley and he said something very very special but he made a mistake in the review or something and I was really confused by it but inn because it introduced me to Patrick O’Malley and now I’m gonna be speaking to Patrick O’Malley directly because he was very very Saint Patrick O’Malley perhaps I don’t know Saint Patrick O’Malley was very present in his utterances anyway that’s why I like LinkedIn anyway live on TikTok which TikTok TikTok tick-tock you know I was thinking about TikTok man you know I’m here and you know you’re kind of like a little bit late you know a few minutes later or whatever you know we have like broadcast delay delays you know going live going live at the world stage is very very important it’s a very competitive event and you know we do that we practice you know different ways so I’m gonna turn on the heat a little bit OK actually I was even talking here I was just kinda like doing a LinkedIn review oops oh well hey anyway LinkedIn is great so have fun LinkedIn I’m still looking for a job so please pick me up because I’m too lazy to get a job as you know LinkedIn very well but anyway I’m trying to get a job in rectangular maintenance or something like as a theoretician in like rectangular space and I need to make that space more three-dimensional kind of like if I want to do that it’s it’s all information Terry OK thank you.Xhris57Version: 9.1.510

Good Professional Platform, Needs UI AdjustmentsI'll say this first: LinkedIn is the first social media on which I had any type of success. My content, in-depth and thought-provoking, was often penalized by algorithms on other platforms. That said, I think LinkedIn understands that they are the dominant service of the business-networking world, so there is really no reason to change the platform. However, this undermines the user base in two major ways: first, users effectively have to learn and adapt to the algorithm, which has certain quirks that influence general platform engagement. For instance, my feed has posts from minutes ago as well as from weeks ago. Second, it is challenging to edit and draft within LinkedIn itself, and I often find myself relying on other mediums to do so. Polishing the LinkedIn editor, and adding flavor (italics, bold, underlining) to text within the UI would go a long way. That said, I have received more thoughtful, engaging, and insightful content from LinkedIn than on any other platform I've used (save Substack, with which it may be on par). So while the algorithm does a good job selecting relevant content, its timeline and preferences (for instance, the odd rule of thumb that authors ought to comment on their own posts) are somewhat confusing. Still, using LinkedIn has been, overall, a very positive experience..EmovoxVersion: 9.1.499

Networking but not enough supportI enjoy LinkedIn and its professional setting that it creates. It’s also easier to apply for internships and jobs through LinkedIn, without too many bots or scam jobs (such as Devil Corporations). But I believe that its extreme strict handling of the app also has some downsides, such as many of the app’s users getting restricted for small or unreasonable things. Personally, I was restricted from my account without any reason (the only possible explanation being that I spent too much time on the app) and have sent an appeal (through Persona) to unrestricted my account, but there has been no message back. LinkedIn claims that it will tackle any restriction appeals back by 24-48 hours, but I have been waiting for over a week without any message back. This is not uncommon, with many other people having no access to their accounts for months. All of the jobs and internships that I have applied for are left on hold because of this issue. I have done everything. I have contacted LinkedIn support on Instagram, X/Twitter, and through Email, yet there is still no mention of my account back. LinkedIn, please invest in more support staff or use a restriction process that is more lax (such as an email to the restricted person’s account and a questionnaire), rather than actual and official documents that need to manually be seen by staff and unrestricted with. Either invest in more staff or have an online system where a program can check all necessary paperwork and unrestricted users immediately. Also, please check my appeal, I really want my account back!.Shinenoch5Version: 9.1.459

One step forward, ten steps backUpdating my review (Jan 15, 2022): Everything below PLUS app freezes when trying to post or upload a photo. (Yes, I deleted and reinstalled.) No such thing as tech help from what I can see. Just consumer forums and FAQs. Down to 1 star and deleting from my phone. —— I used to enjoy this app, but it seems that it is getting less and less user-friendly on iPad and iPhone. For example, the landing page and profile page do not mirror the most important features that are on the laptop version. It would be nice to be able to easily view my recent updates and make changes to all of my profile sections--not just certain ones--from the app. A new thing I've noticed now is that some articles or links can't be opened in browser or forwarded through email/text. The "forward" arrow icon pops up with a "cancel" message instead and no other option. So weird. Sadly, the "app support" is just a forum of somewhat useless info, which is why I'm posting here. Hopefully the designers will read everyone's feedback on App Store and correct these issues in next update..DinaLoveVersion: 9.1.250

It’s a great networking and learning app.LinkedIn overall is a great app. I have found great people on there and connected with them to build my network. Also, the learning courses on the site are on par with sites like Coursera, Udemy, etc. I will say that it’s very noticeable sometimes when they change up the algorithm and show me things I’m not interested in, or topics that are meant to spark a negative reaction, but that’s social media for you. One of my biggest complaints is their job section. I’ve applied at over 1000+ jobs through there site, and the furthest I have ever made was “so and so viewed your resume/profile”, or recruiters that ghost me, so I continue to stick with Indeed on that matter. While LinkedIn is great for networking, I do feel putting a face with a name on LinkedIn can work against POC as I have been ghosted many times by recruiters or companies once they view my profile. For example, I talked via email with Company A, Company A LOVED my resume…..then I see someone who works from Company A view my profile…..I get a rejection email a few hours later. Not saying this to trash the app, only telling my experience, but overall, I still would recommend folks to get a LinkedIn page..Sipp94Version: 9.1.393

Thanks and one usability requestTop rating primarily because your team is responding to community feedback. I recently submitted two complaints about the document view feature provided in our profile. The viewer UI was unusable on mobile in the past and the content of the document didn't display properly either. Since then it appears the UI has improved and the contents display as expected. One last request to improve the document feature. Why not make it possible for a native mobile user to swipe the PDF pages? Currently the only method is to move the small slider UI at the bottom. Alternatively if swipe is a problem consider tap affordance on the right side to advance pages. Worst case make the slider easier to target and test to make sure viewers know how to use it. Lastly and related the entire content view often moves when navigating the tiny slider control which seems odd. Since I use the document view feature as a way to share my portfolio it's very important that the UI doesn't get in the way of somebody viewing the content of my document. Cheers..IvnosliwbVersion: 9.1.397

The only online business for your successLinkedIn has become one of the most powerful business platforms available for professionals, entrepreneurs, and companies looking to expand their reach. It is far more than a networking site — it is a dynamic ecosystem for relationship building, brand positioning, recruitment, and revenue generation. The ability to directly connect with decision-makers, showcase expertise through content, and leverage targeted outreach tools makes LinkedIn a strategic asset for anyone serious about growth. What sets LinkedIn apart is its professional intent. Unlike other social platforms, conversations are business-focused, which creates higher-quality engagement and stronger conversion potential. The job marketplace, advertising tools, automation integrations, and analytics provide measurable opportunities for scaling teams, generating leads, and building authority in specific industries. For entrepreneurs, recruiters, lenders, investors, agency owners, and consultants, LinkedIn is not optional — it is infrastructure. When used strategically and consistently, it becomes a predictable source of partnerships, clients, and long-term opportunities..A I developerVersion: 9.1.521

Dropping out of some service, but staying with other servicesThe role of LinkedIn is changing somewhat, and I am simply dropping the employment notification part. I retired some time ago, but I wanted to see how the employment sector works. I have learned how it works, and how easy it is to narrow down the advertisers and stick with friends that have lots of knowledge of finance, energy, politics, healthcare, and investment management. I hope to continue the basic service, but delete all of the add on support for job listers and speakers. I have about 2000 followers, a lot of whom are media, and they do sometimes utilize my comments for their customers. I am also in Bill Gates Notes, and I have the full Microsoft list of things like excell, one drive, etc. I will be continuing this relationship on LinkedIn. Also, my ongoing membership renews in January. I would like to continue the basic service, but delete the approximately $700 service which I had for the past few years. I don’t use the job service since it seems primarily geared to beginners. As an additional comment, I don’t think the service is very helpful. As an example, in the areas where I know salaries and incomes (some of which are disclosed in annual salary disclosures) I found the numbers in the job review to be off a lot. In some cases a CFO has a listed salary of about $200,000. When the person today would be making 8-10 times that amount. Would I apply (I am retired, not interested in jobs or training) apply for a job that the salary listing indicates the salary at the 10% level? It looks as if most of the salaries are for very young people. After deleting the job hunting data, could you send me a note with the cost of staying on the service for another year? I would like to stay on if possible. I will wait to hear from you. On my current subscription I definitely would not be interested in keeping it for another year../cfoVersion: 9.1.157

Disaster to destruction copyIt began as a plaster for covering highest level of drinking order by God's plan to feed his people. There were molds and cups to pour into when the leak started to empty out the contents everywhere but the destination necessary to fill the tank bedding energy. When the degradation began it clear a label had to be placed to free abscess of information being untrue or deceptive however much adaptation could prevent what would be a destroying of intended purpose. The plan had foiled into immediate propaganda about uncertainty when the underlying problem was fit for the problem that correction inevitably would be expansion of brain thinking towards the growing of usage acceptance in other methods to attain the desired result with little compromising of the future efforts to build and create products resembling the start of glandular catalysts' function.

Great, but annoying flawWhy every time I open a video, that annoying interruption pops up telling me that I can scroll to the next video??? I don’t need to be reminded **every single time I open the app** sometimes even more than once. I understand that you can scroll to see the next video or post. I am proficient in Snapchat, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, etc. Even if I wasn’t, I’m not gonna forget and I don’t need that annoying reminder every single time I open the app. I just want to enjoy the videos without that annoying sliding hand animation popping up and having to press the “Got it” button. Very frequently I have to rewind the video because of this and it detracts from my experience. Please reconsider this design choice LinkedIn. At least make it a setting to disable that reminder. It frankly makes no sense. It’s like someone reminding you how to make coffee every single morning. It’s like, I already know, you’re just slowing me down. I will update this to 5 stars if this gets improved. The app is overall great. Though I would also like better control of notifications so I don’t consistently get notifications I don’t really care about..David 1121Version: 9.1.405

SuggestionMy review will actually be a improvement suggestion for the app, regards user experience. I normally use LinkedIn on my laptop, just because I feel it is easier. You know that thing that there are things for big technology and small technology? So… LinkedIn should actually be also a thing for small technology, like a phone, since it is a social media/networking platform. But there are many features the app doesn’t do the same as the browser version. For example the learning section! I was watching a course on my computer, and have a few saved on my profile, but I could not find those while using my iPad. It is not the same interface, I had to look up in the search bar for the instructor, search through their long list of available courses, to just then find what I was watching. I feel like it should have been easier. LinkedIn is a great platform, it has potential to be great in all devices, just need more improvements!.MonroenwVersion: 9.1.522

From Robotics and Manufacturing to Lockheed Martin: How LinkedIn Helped Open the DoorLinkedIn has honestly been one of the most valuable professional tools I’ve used throughout my career journey. Beyond networking, it gave me direct access to opportunities, industry insight, and meaningful professional connections that helped open doors into the aerospace and defense industry — including helping me get my foot into Lockheed Martin. What I appreciate most about LinkedIn is the ability to connect with people from different industries, learn from experienced professionals, and showcase growth, skills, and work ethic in a competitive job market. As someone transitioning from manufacturing, robotics, and quality-focused roles into aerospace and defense, the platform helped me position my experience in a way that recruiters and hiring managers could recognize and value. For anyone serious about career growth, networking, and professional development, I genuinely believe LinkedIn can be a powerful tool when used with consistency, authenticity, and purpose..Jharrell2585Version: 9.1.546

Better as a creatorLinkedIn was okay until I became a creator. It takes courage to post but over time, like 3-6 months, it becomes easier. At that point it becomes a lot more fun and now I look forward to using LinkedIn and this app every day. Not sure what to write? Use the 2 year, 2 day, or even 2 hour rule (credit Nicolas Cole). Just post what you would have benefited from had you known it 2 years ago, 2 days ago, or even 2 minutes ago! Developers: thanks for your work on the app!! First request: wish the scheduled posts could be edited. Second request: wish commenting was just better organized for conversations. Like replying to a reply to a reply. Also wish that the best answers/comments filtered to the top. Would draw you in as a user to know that the first comments are the most valued by the community (when there are dozens of comments and you don’t want to sift through them all). Again thanks though for the great app!.SmithrofVersion: 9.1.340

Absolutely IncredibleThere’s this company called TravisMathew, they steal personal information from non customers and then email them relentlessly even after blocking and reporting. Thanks to LinkedIn I’m able to put these criminals down until the FTC or FBI finally steps in. Anyways fantastic app, I love putting down criminals who think they’re safe. My only complaint is that you (LinkedIn) think my comments are unwarranted even after asking this “professional LLC” to stop numerous times in numerous ways. Yall should take your security more seriously or else companies like TravisMathew will continue to prey on your user base For anyone else who wants to put them down —> TravisMathew. Look them up and tear them down! They’re violating EVERY privacy law and their HQ is in California… they earned and deserved their burning also don’t worry I already reported them to FTC and FBI… they’re not pleased with these scum bags either. Anyways great app, I love hunting these companies.It is fun..... But......Version: 9.1.416

Auto play video content is brokenNote to developers. As a long time LI app user, my settings have always specified to never auto play videos; I like to choose which video content I want to view. After a recent update, this selection stopped working and videos posted by some of my favorite content creators were no longer accessible to me. I would see a blurred screen and the spinning wheel. Finally, after searching all options in the settings section for the LI app for iOS, I tried changing to auto play video while on cellular and Wi-Fi and voila, the video content plays. Switching back to never auto play still won’t allow me to choose which video I want to view. So, I’m hoping you will address this newly introduced flaw so that users may once again choose to watch some videos and bypass others when using the LI app for iOS on iPhone. For completeness, yes, restart, soft reset, log out of app and back in, delete app and reinstall, and blame the entire problem on Apple for a few weeks before stumbling onto this observation..Fane RobertsVersion: 9.1.384

Good in some ways bad in othersI’ve been using the LinkedIn app regularly for the last 60 days or so as a job search tool. I’m not loving how under the jobs section it suggests jobs you’d be a top applicant for that aren’t even in the same state as me and they’re not remote. I’d rather do my own search and filter those out since it’s mostly showing me onsite and hybrid openings in other states. Additionally, the folks posting job openings either do not understand what Remote means or the options isn’t clear because a lot of the jobs that say remote, once you open the descriptions they have it typed out that you must reside in the state the company is in (which means those jobs are Hybrid, not remote and should not be shown to job seekers outside of that state). I understand the quick option of seeing jobs you’re a top applicant for or similar to jobs you’ve saved but when you don’t have the option to filter those it’s not a good option in my opinion. Additionally, as a paying premium member it’d be nice to have more in mail credits to use..Rgocon123Version: 9.1.342

Messaging has become terrible and extremely frustratingThe main thing I use LinkedIn for is messaging and the past couple of months with these updates the messaging has gone so downhill with more glitches and bugs than ever it makes me not even want to use it. Sometimes I click on a person to message and it just never pulls up the conversation or freezes when I am trying to hit send. Also, when you have a search going, it now disappears the moment you click out of the app to read a text or something which makes you have to keep putting in what you are searching for and it never used to do that. This app used to be great before they ruined it with pointless updates that only made things worse with no noticeable improvements. I would have rated 5 stars before these updates if that tells you how frustrating this has become..AllieB1479Version: 9.1.288

My Personal Opinion About This Website Is:I would like to start off with by saying that this is one of the most amazing app I’ve ever seen in my entire life and I would like to say Thank You for all your hard work and support on helping me through the tough times and the challenges that I had to overcome but I am grateful for still being able to try and keep my business going for the most part but I just wish that I could actually find people that really care about what they are doing and want to exactly work now a days. Because I have enough experience in this field and I would and most certainly could grow up to be a really great business and successful company that would expand all over the state and maybe even the country if proper tools were available to me. But yeah so I couldn’t have done it without you guys so Thank You for everything and Have Yourself a Wonderful Day.Jbeicker80Version: 9.1.374

Elevating Connections with LinkedIn!As a modern eGirl with a multifaceted background, LinkedIn has been my go-to platform for expanding my professional network and showcasing my diverse array of talents. From coding since the early days to being a Red Cross instructor and even a cattle auctioneer, LinkedIn lets me connect with like-minded professionals and industry leaders. I love the sleek, user-friendly interface that makes navigating through my connections and discovering new opportunities a breeze. The seamless integration with my favorite enterprise solutions like Microsoft and AWS is a game-changer, keeping my workflow smooth and efficient. LinkedIn's community is vibrant and supportive, perfect for someone like me who’s involved in tech, animal welfare, and even the entertainment industry. It's more than just a networking site; it's a platform where I can share my journey, from attending Google I/O 2024 to celebrating my Twitch streams and engaging with fellow World of Warcraft guild leaders. For anyone looking to build a robust professional presence while staying true to their unique brand, LinkedIn is a must-have. If you want to build a pleasure robot. Let me know. Whether you're a seasoned contractor, a tech-savvy eGirl, or a passionate community advocate, LinkedIn helps you shine in all your multifaceted glory.

Please add an unlimited word countI love LinkedIn, but would like to see an unlimited word count. There are so many times that I have a post that exceeds the allotted word count and it’s frustrating. I could condense what i need to say most times, but sometimes I need to be able to say more than what LinkedIn allows. If the post is good, people will read it. If not, they don’t have to read it and can just scroll on past. I’m sure if you took a poll from other LinkedIn users, you would find that most of them would agree that LinkedIn needs an unlimited word count. Don’t limit it solely for the purpose of making sure people’s posts are shorter. Give people the opportunity to add as much as they need to their posts. Sometimes you need to be able to add more to your post to properly say what you need to say because tightening your word count doesn’t always cut it..(Joe)45Version: 9.1.176

LinkedIn FunctionLinkedIn will get 5-Stars when their customers get to self-select which research study group we can join. For your informed consent… The goal is to compare the before & after mood & energy score of the LinkedIn employees and customers who participate in the 60-minute collaborative game. LinkedIn will have to be willing to promote my “Does Humor Work for You?” offer and handle the registration to the private Zoom link I will supply them. My reason is that I do not want to collect any LinkedIn contacts or give mine out unless the participant really enjoyed the game. The option to add their preferred contact info will be included at the end. That means LinkedIn must be willing to interact with me, a retired nurse who did not have the opportunity to do this research project when I had a premium account. To be invited to participate in the innovative online collaborative event, the answers to ALL of these questions must be YES: 1) Will you commit to full participation in a 60-minute interactive health edutainment event via Zoom? 2) Will you agree to complete the mind-body-spirit survey at the beginning of the game before the rules are explained and another survey before the event ends using the same device for comparison? 3) Will you agree to express yourself without foul language or belittling others? 4) Do you understand this is collaborative to help everyone do their personal best? 5)Are you of legal adult age?.Sister Sue Grandmother WeaverVersion: 9.1.381

Scam job listingsDear LinkedIn Support Team, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding a recurring issue that has been negatively impacting the user experience on your platform. Recently, I have come across several job postings that raise serious red flags. These listings request sensitive information such as credit scores and credit card details as part of the application process. This practice is highly alarming and clearly indicative of fraudulent activity. As a user who values the integrity and security of the LinkedIn platform, I believe it is imperative to address this issue promptly and effectively. Such scams not only jeopardize the trust of job seekers but also tarnish the reputation of LinkedIn as a trusted professional networking platform. I implore you to take immediate action to combat these scams. Strengthening the verification process for job postings and implementing stricter measures against unauthorized information requests would go a long way in safeguarding the community. Furthermore, I urge you to raise awareness about these scams and educate users on how to identify and report suspicious job listings. Proactive steps in this regard would empower users and contribute to a safer and more reliable job-seeking experience on LinkedIn. I appreciate your attention to this matter and trust that LinkedIn will take the necessary steps to rectify this issue. Together, we can create an environment where genuine opportunities flourish and users can connect and thrive in a secure professional network. Thank you for your time and consideration..Math24ReshVersion: 9.1.339

LinkedIn: Community & Network Negative Reviews

Horrible New User Experience and Customer ServiceUpon creating an account I tried to verify it but the third party service they used to scan my documents read both my name and birthday incorrectly. After I contacted customer service to address this I soon got locked out of my account and had to contact customer service to get back in. They had me scan and upload documents again several times with a different third party, and eventually unfroze my account after accusing me of breaking the community policy and terms of service by sharing my account and/or accessing other accounts, which absolutely never happened. I tried to follow up with the customer service rep by asking them to let me know if using their service while protecting my internet traffic with a VPN was not allowed or viable, since I assume it was my VPN that they mistook for suspicious activity. The customer service representative did not answer my question but did immediately restrict my account again and accuse me of breaking their terms of service and community guidelines again. When I asked for clarification I was ignored and informed that the case was considered resolved, that I would not be given access to my account again nor may I create a new one, and now I have no recourse for recovering my account. And the kicker? VPNs aren’t even disallowed by their terms of service or community policy. Absolutely abhorrent service. What a nightmare: a complete waste of time, energy, and mental health..BullroarerTookVersion: 9.1.451

Need to take likes awayI personally hate this app but need it to stay connected to some people. That being said, lately when I scroll, it’s adding unwarranted likes to photos or videos of people I don’t even know. Just now I was scrolling through my feed and as I did, likes (from me) were being added to a bunch of posts. I’m not hitting likes nor am I double tapping anything. Just regular scrolling and boom, like. Because of it, I’m now being contacted by people I could care less about! We need to be able to take these off. O have also been approached by men looking for dates. Men I do not know. This app isn’t for professionals anymore, it’s a freaking joke. Oh and by the way…Most of my feed are ads or posts from people and companies I am not connected with in any way. I never see posts from those I am and my own posts have gone down in views from hundreds to literally single digits. My last post had 6 views! Two years ago I had a thousand…how does this even happen? I have also put in my settings that I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A JOB and yet I get all of these messages from both LinkedIn and from potential employers telling me about positions or would I like to come in and meet, etc. Enough! I only keep this to stay in contact with folks who I am no longer connected with on other social platforms. This app and service has seriously lost its way from what it once was. AI, ChatGbt and other IMpersonal bots have made this no longer a place to connect with actual humans and more like a bot app to get spammed with nonsense. DO BETTER..Farley213Version: 9.1.524

Took My Card Info, Then Locked Me OutLinked In locked me out of my account for security concerns just after I opted for the premium subscription. I’ve filled out every form and ticket I could, I even reached out to their LinkedIn profile and Google and have not heard back. BTW the only way to get in touch with customer service is to have an account. How is that possible if you’re locked out? I was forced to make another account solely just to get in touch with customer support. I got one response from them… which was to log into my initial account to cancel the subscription. How would this help me if I’m locked out completely (can’t even get through Persona which I also super disagree with- you have to provide your ID and passport to a third-party company. This is information I’ve never even gave to Linked In let alone a total stranger company. It all just looks like one big red flag). I feel like I was just robbed, they took my card information then locked me out. I’m incredibly concerned and hope someone reaches out to me to fix this. I don’t reccomend LinkedIn whatsoever, they have practically stolen my money and will not respond to me so that I can cancel my subscription. I’ll update this review when it’s resolved, until then do not trust this company they will decieve you into a subscription then lock you out of your account so you cannot cancel it. Then they will not respond to you no matter how hard you try to reach out to them. I’m left to writing reviews and probably even a letter to their Company, this is crazy!.Abutmumawn136Version: 9.1.460

Regressive update on job search functionLinkedIn is the main app I use to search and filter for jobs, and before the update, I found it pretty user-friendly and easy to filter by multiple features. However, upon opening the app a few days ago, I noticed an update that seems rather regressive than progressive. I can no longer see my search history like I used to, making it arduous to re-type and re-search every field each time I open the app. This was a pretty basic feature that now makes using the job feature on the app a pain. I’m not sure whether this is a tactic to “create the problem then charge for the solution”, but this was one of the key reasons I loved LinkedIn and would recommend it to others. I hope whoever is in charge sees this and brings the features (multiple filters, search history) back. On a separate note, one thing I do not like is how the suggested jobs seem to not be “smart” at all. The algorithm does not learn from your searches and as such, will continue suggesting jobs you have absolutely no interest in. So that tab is pretty useless to me. I would suggest future updates actually include user-conscious job suggestions, bring back the user-friendliness that gave LinkedIn its edge, and prove to users that they actually care about the user experience beyond making profits..Emmzyy94Version: 9.1.464

Less than ideal job searching / brain melting posturingThe app works fine in terms of function, layout, overall design philosophy. But the job search function (a main draw of the platform for many users) is unnecessarily restrictive in some ways. For example, why would it be helpful to force a search to include job title? It is widely known that different companies title/describe the exact same position in vastly different ways. And what if I want to find a way in to a specific company but am open to multiple ways of doing that? In both of these scenarios, the job searching features are not very helpful- actually, they are actively making it more difficult. And dear god, the posturing... I cannot stand to look at the home page for more than a couple seconds. The ads, first of all, are WAY out of control. Far too many, far too annoying. Literally every other post. And the environment fostered by LinkedIn has created a tendency in people to posture to a degree that makes me outwardly, physically cringe. Posts are often inexpressibly self-important, or act like they convey the world's most important lesson in the cleverest way ever devised. Many examples/stories in posts turn out to be straight up fake. This is not a user problem- again, the environment of LinkedIn is the root problem. Zero authenticity to be had anywhere..DanielManningVersion: 9.1.480

Bugs bugs bugsThe basic function of this app is much more frustrating than helpful. Anytime I have a notification come across my screen while I have LinkedIn open, it completely closes what I'm doing in LinkedIn Without me highlighting or activating the notification. And even when using my Web browser to go to a company's website after LinkedIn, it will not let me share the link with anyone outside of my LinkedIn network. When someone else repost someone's post, and I comment or reply, when someone replies to my comment, I won't get a notification in my notification center or an email. And then if I go to messaging, it also does not show up in my Message center. And what prompted this review is I literally less than a minute ago had a notification come across my screen that showed new job postings in LinkedIn that matches my searches. When I literally clicked on that notification as it came into my device, and brought me to LinkedIn, all it did will show me previous jobs I've applied to; does not show any new postings of anything related to what I'm looking for. The notification was basically completely pointless It's almost impossible to get accurate notifications and for anything to work the way it's supposed to. As someone with chronic pain conditions and vision loss, this app really needs to consider accessibility with people that use screen readers.EhlertmanVersion: 9.1.487

Undermines EmployabilityLinkedIn works against the candidate. By funneling candidate applications through one clearinghouse (the vast majority of employers place their ads on LinkedIn), the individual candidate is drowned in a pile too high for employers to manage without either neglecting a large portion of applications or processing them through pre-screening software that reduces a candidate to some point in 3- or 4-dimensional space. In the good old day, candidates who were out of work and most desperate to avoid an adverse outcome like eviction enjoyed an advantage over their working counterparts: they had the time to pound pavement and reply via snail mail, fax, or hand delivery to an ad found in the classified section of the local newspaper. Back then, the employer night receive 80 responses (60 from unemployed job seekers). But now that the Internet and that software place us all within a few mouse clicks and keystrokes from candidacy status, employers receive 800 applications, 600 from applicants who already have jobs. Sociologically, LinkedIn and other job portals are not equitable. They just benefit employers and make the rich among workers richer. LinkedIn also encourages its users to contribute to dialogue by posting comments or essays. I have had interviews rescinded by employers who misinterpreted an essay as some sign that either I am not a 24/7 company man, that I am not a team player, or that I am not a professional who accepts injustices or flaws in the workforce with grace..ShadowAmericaVersion: 9.1.329

Losing its appealLinkedIn as a platform to find and be found for job opportunities is great, but it’s shifting into being Facebook with stories and how the posts are used. I’m spammed for jobs in messages that are not remotely relevant to my experience and you’ve removed the ability to communicate to recruiters what I’m passionate about. Despite marking I’m not interested in contract roles, I’m contacted about them non-stop. Create a way for me to not show up to these recruiters or for me to report them soliciting contracts that I have no interest in. As a user right now I feel like I’m entirely at the mercy of whatever a recruiter wants to talk about and recruiters/companies are taking advantage of their controlling position in the job market. I can get all of that nonsense by posting my profile on Indeed or other websites, make LinkedIn a far more comprehensive platform for job seekers as well. I understand you’re working to increase time on app, engagement, and other metrics with the use of posts, but it more and more resembles Facebook. It’s becoming so far from business oriented and nothing remotely close to productive. It feels like you’re struggling to decide if you want to be a social media platform or if you want to be a professional/work based platform. Why are you adding features that Instagram and other social media apps have? Instead, why don’t you build out better ways to ensure jobs are actively being filled instead of farming for resumes, ways for users to control what employers and roles they see and are seen by, etc.. Have you all lost sight of the big picture?.R-FernVersion: 9.1.201

Bring my account backLinked In locked me out of my account for security concerns just after I opted for the premium subscription. I’ve filled out every form and ticket I could, I even reached out to their LinkedIn profile and have not heard back. BTW the only way to get in touch with customer service is to have an account. How is that possible if you’re locked out? I was forced to make another account solely just to get in touch with customer support. I got one response from them… which was to log into my account to cancel the subscription. How would this help me if I’m locked out completely (can’t even get through Persona which I also super disagree with- you have to provide your ID and passport to a third-party company. This is information I’ve never even gave to Linked In let alone a total stranger company. It all just looks like one big red flag). I feel like I was just robbed, they took my card information then locked me out. I’m incredibly concerned and hope someone reaches out to me to fix this. I don’t reccoment LinkedIn whatsoever, they have practically stolen my money and will not respond to me so that I can cancel my subscription. I’ll update this review when it’s resolved, until then do not trust this company they will decieve you into a subscription then lock you out of your account so you cannot cancel it. Then they will not respond to you..Karam97Version: 9.1.464

Suddenly banned from account after just a few days of creating an accountDear whom it may concern at LinkedIn, I am writing in hopes that someone from customer service or corporate will see this review and help resolve my account access issues. I started an account last week and was not aware that you had to put your government name on the account. I used a variation of my name which all my close acquaintances know me as. I signed up for premium access including a 30 day trial subscription. Imagine my surprise when after I updated the app of few days later my account was banned out of the blue and I had to verify my government ID with persona to possibly regain access. Now, I didn’t have too much of an issue with this and readily sent my passport info even though it didn’t give me an alternative like it said it would in additional information. five days later, I am still unable to access my account because persona has not verified my account. After reading further did I notice that my account name and my ID name had to match. But how on earth am I supposed to change my account name if I can’t get into my account??? Am I to stay in limbo forever until further notice while my 30 day free trial passes day by day? Why don’t they let us submit our government ID and tell us to use or full legal names when we are creating our accounts? Please help.American Abroad AnnieVersion: 9.1.462

None existent tech supportI been using LinkedIn for a few months now, but recently I was locked out of my account because LinkedIn’s verification system won’t work. I can’t even send a request because the system thinks I already sent one already. I’ve looked around to find any help. LinkedIn has no phone number to call tech support, so that’s a bad sign already. I’ve tried to send a support ticket and that failed because I need an account signed in, so that’s not an option. I got so desperate that I contacting the Persona tech support team who made the program LinkedIn uses to verify people’s identity, and they at least emailed me back and told me where to go to send a account recovery email. So I sent that email ticket. After it failed to send after 8 times in three days until it finally got through. I even have a confirmation email that the email made it. That was 7 days ago. I haven’t received word from LinkedIn yet, nor is the verification system working. In fact, it’s even worse now because it said I attempted to sign in too many times after I just tried to log in today just once. So my account, job opportunities, and information are lost to me because LinkedIn doesn’t have anyone working in their IT department, which is ironic because that’s the career I’m trying to go into for a job..Phantom CriticalVersion: 9.1.459

Reflections on an Evolving App and Security ConcernsOver the past two years, this app has seen significant growth in content and learning opportunities. As someone at a certain stage in my career, I’ve had both positive and less favorable experiences. Currently, the benefits seem to outweigh the drawbacks, but there remain some valid concerns. One area of concern is social media. While I’m inclined to believe that LinkedIn offers more positives than negatives, it still requires substantial improvements. Many users might share my apprehensions about social media in general. Striking a balance between leveraging social platforms for professional growth and avoiding potential pitfalls is crucial. Now, let’s delve into security. The app’s security settings deserve praise—features like pass-keys, two-factor authentication, and support for multiple email addresses are commendable. It’s essential to maintain this level of vigilance. However, there’s a recurring issue: the frequent “password reset” emails from LinkedIn. Unlike any other company I’ve engaged with, this app and its associated website collect and share data (including personally identifiable information). As a user, I scrutinize these notifications carefully. And to let you the reader of this review know: No, I did not, and am not the requestor asking do you have my password reset. The frequency I get these email notifications, is high. Until this matter is adequately addressed, I hesitate to comment further. In summary, while security measures are commendable, the persistent password reset emails raise concerns. Let’s hope the app continues to prioritize security while addressing user feedback..Product19Version: 9.1.359

Hope you never need supportMy LinkedIn account was recently restricted after changing my email address, and I was told that I needed to verify my identity by uploading my government ID to a third party platform. This is an absolutely ridiculous requirement and a violation of privacy. You do not need to provide this information in order to create an account, but as soon as they flag your account as “suspicious” in any way you’re completely screwed. Additionally, their help options are hidden behind a login, so if you have a restricted account there’s no way to go through their help pages and actually get a contact for their customer service. I tracked down an issue submission form online, and my first request was closed with zero assistance. My second request I simply received canned responses over and over again stating that I must verify my identity in order to regain access to my years old account, and that I either must do so via Persona, or go to get a form notarized and upload it. Repeated requests to have my issue escalated have been no help. I have offered to contact them from my previous email in order to prove to them that I was the one who initiated the change, I also suggested that they could simply change the email address back to the old one. Neither option was viable, apparently, but I genuinely have no idea if the support person even read my messages so I can’t say they were ever really considered. This is actually insane - LinkedIn is a social media platform. Why don’t they simply have security questions/words that you set up ahead of time to verify identity? At this point I have no desire to use their platform due to their practices..Avenue6147Version: 9.1.453

Not what it used to beThis app has gone down the drain. It’s become a necessary evil: it’s needed to be successful in your career but the app truly gives zero value. The certifications you get from the app don’t translate to most companies and isn’t credible. There are too many recruiter “influencers” who basically give their opinions on what a makes a resume “marketable” and peddle paid services to “enhance” your resume. I did one with someone and I applied and the company told me my resume was unacceptable. There are too many grifters that spam your inbox to sell something and talk to my company for. If I talked about my company, I would be fired. Too many out of touch users who comment tone deaf things. LinkedIn doesn’t remove them because they’re “top contributors”. 7/10 of job postings are fake, like from Upstart, to show investors that they’re growing. It’s misleading a growing population of jobless people to have false hopes that a post is real. It’s also just become a humble bragging app. I legit saw someone say, “During my 6 years of working at google as a senior developer, I couldnt find the time to have a dog. Now, meet Fido, my cavapoo I got during the pandemic.” I’ve found better luck networking in person. I reached out to a recruiter (Leah Dillon) asking what the company culture is like and I received the nastiest response saying I should cold-DM someone, even though they added me back. After that, I refuse to even speak to any of the recruiters. This app was once a great app to actually learn about what other industries are doing and learn from great people. Now it’s a sea of scammers and fake job postings..Kingraptor11Version: 9.1.370

BEWARE IF YOU USE SUBSCRIPTION!!!So, long story short… I downloaded the app on my phone and was looking for jobs and all. I was at work and had my laptop with me and some downtime so I ironically open linked in to look for positions. I get a free promo thing for premium and I accept to try it out since it was a much longer than normal trial (almost 3 months it felt like). Now I check my subscriptions monthly in Apple Store and thought that since it was downloaded from AppStore and it was technically an in app purchase (the trial), that it would alert me of LinkedIns subscription. Time went by and I didn’t see any charges so I figured the subscription ended automatically. I forgot tho, the subscription was a lengthy one. LONG STORY SHORT: I ended up paying months of unknown $45 charges because the only way to know I had a paying/active subscription was from the website. The app didn’t notify me of any charges and you rarely look at LinkedIn anymore or on my computer especially. I feel the company knows that is a way to capitalize on people who aren’t as high tech or into the subscription based life as much. Really displeased with LinkedIn. I wanted to like the platform but i don’t know if I can consider using them again.@icamwVersion: 9.1.378

Nothing more than a social meeting placeAt first it seemed professional . A little later it was professional and social people meeting. Looked on my ex-husband’s page he had other accounts one of his names he called hisself big bone . Which was a total lie there was nothing big about it and I’m serious . I knew he was talking to other women because that made up a fake account for me to see if he would flirt. when he got home the entire conversation popes up on his (so called professional) page but he denied that he was big bone. Right as he got home and sat his iPad down the entire conversation popped up on his iPad. however I’m not stupid it would not be on his page if it wasn’t he who did that. But I have many reasons why I knew he lied about it. I rather not go into full details of how I knew he was using all these sites meeting women . Condoms disappearing. We were together 17 years and for 15 years he had no problem he always let me use his phone or iPad but all of a sudden the last three years it was a problem . he didn’t like me looking at it and he would reset the phone if I grabbed it before he could so yeah I don’t believe this site is not much different than Facebook Twitter or any of those other sites. Also on LinkedIn he would not accept my friend request so what does that tell me and anyone else I tell this to I just got sick of it and deleted my account not long after I had it . If people would use it professionally like it was made it would be a good site unfortunately they are looking for extra things that other sites have who are not professionals. So my sites deleted I’m happy I did it and I will never install it again..A long term customerVersion: 9.1.149

App issues for IOSI have a very simple issue that I have spent the last while trying to figure out how to report. If I could report it, it would probably be fixed and fine but not only is the issue annoying me, but it is preventing me from reporting anything. So here I am. Hopefully this reaches the right people. —Issue 1: Please make it possible to report small software bugs. —Issue 2: This is very small but annoying: Tango requires double tapping of the screen to switch between icons. IOS systems automatically zoom in on screens that are double tapped. Tango is timed and everyone can see how slow you are. That’s fine, competition is fun. But, I literally spent a huge block of time this morning fighting my app to zoom back out with a pinch after I double tap to place an icon. Can we please, please, please fix this? I just want to participate in the timed competitions with a fair playing field. Today not only did it keep zooming in, but it kept freezing directly afterwards to prevent me from zooming back out quickly. I’ve tried updating my app. I’ve tried restarting, reinstalling, etc…unless I’m a complete dufus (which is never off the table), this seems to be an application issue.

Evil platform - do nor trustLinkedin now uses security concerns as an excuse to demand you to submit your ID document to Persona which collects your info and probably share with governments. I wonder how Linkedin is STILL not satisfied that it has all YOUR work history, resume, personal info and contacts. Now it's FORCING users like me to submit my state ID to "verify" myself as if it is not enough they have both my email and send codes to my phone which I verified. They are hungry for user info and not unlike China, which they pretended to exit for ethical reasons. They just sell your info to organizations like Persona which takes your ID now. I would like to ask you, Linkedin and Persona, are you the central government? Why in the heck are you holding MY account and work opportunities hostage unless I give you MORE of my private information?! How dare you DEMAND we give you, a shady tech company, MY STATE-issued ID?? I am leaving your platform cus you are evil and greedy and manipulative. Even my BANK does not require it. Who do you think you are to hold hostage someone's work connections so you can ROB me of MY ID. And no - I am not giving you my work email either. You will not take advantage of us anymore. You are a evil corporation and so is the likes of Persona, using the false excuse of "verifying someone's identity" to further exploit us for private information. You should maybe reenter China since clearly you are now owned my similar interests that goes in the same direction. Save your patronizing responses. No matter what you say asking people for state ID for a stupid work website is evil and exploitative. Good bye and may your business fail..SpeaktheTruthLouderVersion: 9.1.378

Will restrict account even as you try to find jobsI downloaded and created the account with my work email. Found some potential jobs I can transition to so I used the nifty save job application so I can consider my options. Apparently in doing so it’s marked as “suspicious activity” which results in my account being restricted. Then when I go to lift it they expect me to hand out my id like it’s a normal thing to do. It may just be a personal thing but I don’t just hand out personal information without hesitation. Because of that I even tried to delete my account. Which I can’t do because they expect my id even to do that. Sorry but I’m here to apply to potential jobs to further my career. Not to get my information sold which is the only reason they are demanding an id. So that is why you’re getting a one star. I hope people read this review and take to heart not to make account with them. Also I feel like a LinkedIn bot will respond with “I’m sorry for your experience but we aren’t sorry. You violated terms and that’s why you were restricted etc” Well regardless don’t make an account with them. Apply to the jobs directly not through them. Not worth selling your identity for them..Belgar132Version: 9.1.487

Need Auto-Saving for DraftsI spent about an hour carefully crafting a reply to a message, had assembled a bunch of links and useful information for the recipient, and had to navigate away from the app momentarily to grab a link. When I switched back to LinkedIn, the app opened to the main landing page and when I reopened the message I had been composing a reply to, the text field was empty. I lost an hour of work and I feel so frustrated, distraught, and disheartened. Auto-save for in-progress messages is pretty basic functionality for most messaging programs and if your app had had it, I wouldn’t be in this situation. I wish I could setup a LinkedIn auto-response that directs everyone who messages through LinkedIn me to contact me on a different interface, so that I could avoid using LinkedIn’s messaging tool entirely. Objectively, the app is basically fine aside from this issue and does not really deserve only one star. I’m just still reeling from the emotional blow of this experience and looking for an outlet for my frustration as well as to share this feedback with you while it’s fresh and in a way that will help your team feel the pain that can be caused by this product gap and really understand the impact.

This app is pointlessI hate this app and I hate that I’m forced to use it. It has never led me to a successful job search that resulted in an interview or new job. I don’t think I should be forced to write positively toxic statements and generate content to be promoted or hired. But because LinkedIn seems to want to be a leader in recruitment and HR analytics internationally I’m forced to have to read dumb and completely irrelevant “therapy style” or personal posts from people I’ve worked with, am friends with or Ive never met. Should I be posting on this corporate social platform that I’m grieving because a person close to me just died but it’s okay because my job and coworkers are there for me? People from my current job come to work and complain to my face and then go on LinkedIn and post toxic positivity daily. Everyone is absolutely delulu on this application and platform. Completely DELULU! Because no one responds, I’ve paid from premium and reached out to recruiters and also responded to recruiters and they never respond back. It’s just a scam to get our money and an advertisement platform. No one has ever responded to any of my messages sent and the monthly subscription is insanely too expensive, and also results in no success or messages responded to..DelulumonaVersion: 9.1.417

Unprofessional customer service and inaccurate algorithmsAfter using the application for quite a while that I have added too many connections that I have never talked to. So recently I was trying to clean up those connections. Because I didn’t find any option to delete all unused connections all at once so I just manually deleted them. All of sudden I received an system notification that I was using a third party software and restricted for log in in 1 hour. I was so frustrated that I never used anything like that and I was just simply cleaning up my unused connections. I mean if LinkedIn has the option to let me delete them all at once then I don’t need to manually delete one by one and create a ‘high volume’ as they claimed. It is the inaccurate algorithms that mark me as something called ‘using the the third party software’. In fact I don’t even know there exists this kind of third party software. The customer representative was like this is a done deal that you are using the 3rd party software and any tickets regarding to this would be closed automatically. So LinkedIn made a mistake that they don’t admit it. And the customer has no right to point it out! See this is the way how they treat their customers!.ChanL996Version: 9.1.235

LinkedIn: Career Catalyst to Clunky ChaosI am writing this review after having used this platform for over 10 years. During this time, I found my first job, my first mentor, my first boss, and embarked on a highly rewarding career path here. So why am I being so critical? I write this review for the product leaders at LinkedIn who genuinely care about professional networking and are open to constructive criticism and feedback. LinkedIn was once a great platform, but it has become significantly less effective. My message box is inundated with spam, notifications are irrelevant, and the content has largely devolved into gossip. Furthermore, most useful features now require a premium subscription. Basic tasks such as scrolling and navigating are slow, clunky, and frustrating. The app takes an excessive amount of time to load, and finding the right people and content has become a daunting task. It seems some product manager must have created a presentation titled “Discovering and Executing Features for Maximal Monetization.” While that presentation might have been convincing, the result has been a product lacking user empathy. Consequently, my usage of LinkedIn has dropped to a bare minimum..FA236AFVersion: 9.1.384

Will not save profile pictureI have tried on my web browser on my laptop and in the LinkedIn App, and the system will not allow me to save a profile picture. It will let me upload a photo, edit it with cropping and filters, and hit the “save” button, but the photo does not save. In the web browser, the “save” grays out after I press it and does nothing else. If I then close the edit window, it warns that my changes have not been saved and gives only the option to discard changes and close the window or to cancel and return to the editing screen. In the App, if I press save, it comes up with a “saving” message and the wheel spins for about 3 seconds, then the entire app crashes and shuts down. Pretty worthless app if it doesn’t even function well enough to put in a profile picture. My other limited experiences with the app have also been negative. When trying to edit education history and work history, the app is clunky and sometimes slow to respond. It is also hard to predict where in your profile the info you are entering is going to actually show..A1n1mVersion: 9.1.340

Absolutely terrible experienceI recently created a profile as i felt it was time to make an actual professional profile that others could see. After doing so i proceed to add/ create 2 company pages one for my personal brand and one for a club/ non profit i run. A few days later i was automatically logged out of both phone and laptop access and told to go through persona for a "security check" after doing it multiple times it failed over and over to verify. When i tried again later it gave me messages to try again later since i submitted a report already. I was confused on the status of my account since i did nothing for this restriction to happen. I asked colleagues to search for my profile to which they could not find it. So at this point i don't know if they automatically banned my account for no reason or if its still on hidden and being processed. Ive found out this seems to be a recurring issue for many users. And to add onto that you can access support unless you are logged it. Well guess what you cant if you got locked out randomly.

Unable to AccessThis company is horrible! I have done everything from resetting my password, clearing cache, verifying identity, literally everything they suggested and I still can’t access my account on LinkedIn. I honestly hate that I ever put my information on this site. I feel like once you create a profile they kick you out and keeps your information forever. There should be a class action lawsuit against this corporation for keeping accounts open indefinitely without allowing people no other options to delete unless you sign in to delete. How is it possible to delete an account you have completely blocked me from accessing and yet they have all my information. I’m going to look into this with a lawyer because this has to violate something with personal information rights. I’m also going to look into creating a business similar thing o LinkedIn that allows consumers to actually be able to contact someone via chat and or by phone. LinkedIn doesn’t offer any sort support unless you sign in but they make signing in impossible. Worst experience ever. Worst corporation and no customer care at all..BeaüteVersion: 9.1.392

Please readI downloaded this app on my phone just so i could advise everyone not to use this website. For a senior project in my AP english class, everyone needs to create a LinkedIn account. Everything was going fine and I had spent about 3 hours working on the profile and only had about an hour or less of work left to do. The next day, I go to log in and there is an error message that says I need to submit ID due to suspicious activity. I talk to my teacher and this seems to be a problem with many other students. She contacts LinkedIn and they said it was due to a mass login on the same internet, and it will be fixed soon. The next day, very few students were still locked out, including me. I submitted my drivers license. The day after that, I was one of two students locked out. Skip a few days (3), and they FINALLY respond to me saying my account is permanently banned. I am now drastically behind in my class and this program is going to ultimately lead to my failure in this college class. I hope you guys fix your support team and maybe look at issues a little deeper before banning people..JdjxsbakcnsmzVersion: 9.1.281

Absolutely ridiculous. Continuously suggesting jobs that are not in my field. Notifying me that i appeared in several searches but only give access to a couple and then tell to reactivate premium to see the rest. Giant money grab disguised as an employment networking site..Garbage bin material.Version: 9.1.311

Privacy!There should be expressed action and change to the private information of your users. In particular is Search History and Financial information. Search should not be kept as there is no beneficial reason to keep it, once a search is competed, what benefit is offered for keeping it other than to sell it. This isn’t write nor part of the service business model to your users. Financial information more crucial as any purchases made within or of services that LinkedIn offers, once the transaction is completed other than a record of the purchase length of time of the service being offered should no longer need to be kept. This is very dangerous and always ends up in a leak when security is breached! LinkedIN already was a subject of end user data being leaked back in 2019!! once end users remove their payment information then LinkedIn not longer has right to that payment data. Period..BicardiSlangVersion: 9.1.213

Data privacy nightmareThere's system processes going on in your device that are not mentioned at all anywhere in tos or system permissions, if your wondering why your phone is going off like your having a telethon, this is the culprit, a data privacy nightmare. They are looking at your browser without consent, a very greasy and shady app that scrapes info from your device..Brutally honest userVersion: 9.1.533

GarbageCreated an account. Everything was good for a day. The following day I log in it said my account is restricted due to breaking the terms of service which I don’t understand how that is possible when all I did was list my work experience. So I input my password and of course for some reason that doesn’t work says it’s the wrong password even though this is the one I saved on iPhone. App required me to verify my ID so being from Ontario Canada I use my drivers license on persona. That doesn’t work as the barcode for the back of the license doesn’t line up with whatever they think it is on the app. So I can’t be verified and can’t access my account to at least delete the profile because of it being restricted. The best part about this joke of an app is that you can’t even talk to or get direct help from LinkedIn to access and mitigate the issues. Absolute garbage of an app with no support..Edmund J LehnerVersion: 9.1.531

Latest LinkedIn app not compatible with older SWMy phone has older sw that will not load the new app while the existing old app in my phone will NOT let me access the site until I load the new app As I unable to upgrade my sw, I guess I will no longer access LinkedIn via the iPhone app Why can’t I continue to use the last app version that has worked fine?.Mr. JulianaVersion: 9.1.411

Don’t bother subscribing to themAbsolutely terrible service, and don’t fall for there “free trial” cause they just end up charging you well over 100 dollars then when you cancel your subscription so you don’t get charged again they automatically cut all the paid features you had even with 12 months remaining!.ThekellshowVersion: 9.1.521

Created an account, subscribed for premium… Got blocked for no reasonI created an account about four days ago, and subscribed for premium features on the same day in hope of finding a legal translator in Vancouver. Now I cannot log in at all - my account was « restricted to protect my safety » with no ability to reinstate access. So there is now my personal information on their website with no way for people to contact me. An awful and horrible experience! Please do not sign up on this app - or, if it’s absolutely needed, like it was needed for me, consider to use fake name so that if gets blocked, you could easily create a new account. This is not an app for professionals. This is an app for idiots who want to think they are professionals. And it’s ran by the same kind of people too..Pvkom26Version: 9.1.470

Privacy Concerns – Attracting Scammers After Using LinkedInAfter updating my LinkedIn profile and applying to jobs, I started receiving scam messages, phishing emails, and even strange phone calls. I hadn’t used my email anywhere else recently, which makes me question how securely LinkedIn protects user data. Some messages even mimicked real recruiters but turned out to be fake. LinkedIn needs to tighten its vetting process and data privacy standards. Be careful what you post—scammers are clearly lurking..Movement picnicVersion: 9.1.467

TerribleIf I could do a zero star I would. They locked me out of my account for what they said an unknown reason. They wanted me to a security check where I had to input my email and password to confirm my identity which I did. Then they said it wasn’t enough so they wanted a bunch of personal info which I gave them that consisted of a facial recognition scan, license and passport. I advised them I needed it for work as we use LinkedIn so it would need to be handled asap. They said my info wasn’t correct even though my passport, facial recognition and Id were all a match. Anyways they are still working out a resolution which is ridiculous as it has been 2 weeks. Terrible customer service and horrible IT department..Reech411111Version: 9.1.460

CLEAR verification does not workLinkedIn picked the cheapest verifications among different countries, and in North America CLEAR is the most useless, frustrating, flawed, and under-serviced app for face-to-government ID app there is. Previously I made an account for my border verification during pandemic precautions, and it worked fine. Now, after literal dozens (it might be a couple hundred) of attempts, troubleshooting, and trying it still does not work. After 3 support tickets the LinkedIn team is very reluctant to even help its customers as it is still a developing feature. They advertise that profiles with ID verification get 60% more views on average, and I need this app to network with colleagues in the future. It is a real shame that my concerns are being denied, ignored, and covered up with bandaids with more troubleshooting routes- which- there shouldn’t be as many, because it should be accessible and accommodating to its users. Thanks to LinkedIn support team for failing me 3 times..C. HolmeVersion: 9.1.412
