5 ★ Had a Great experience using this app. Quite an interesting application ❤
5 ★ App,that is very communicative.Love it
5 ★ This is really fun. It's something different from other applications and definitely it's a very good way to connect with each other. You must try this application to connect with your friends and family. I personally enjoyed using this app.
5 ★ It's a very good audio messaging app. We can share valuable information with the world. We can make private and public groups for our conversation. This app is really helpful and amazing.
5 ★ It was an amazing experience with this swell app , it has many super cool options to share your memories and feelings. Really helpful and easy to operate .
3 ★ The latest update is not that great. I preferred when I could choose to play Swells that interested me rather than it automatically playing every Swell on the homepage. It would also be nice if we could see who liked/reacted to a swell - that'll make it easier to find and follow people who have similar interests.
5 ★ The best way to truly connect with the world
5 ★ A suggestion I have is to allow me to personalize my app experience through allowing me to change the color scheme. Also, personal swells that don't have to be about starting a conversation - on your personal page. Maybe a limit of 2 or something. Just to share a thought purely for sake of sharing it. The color scheme as it is makes everything feel unexciting and dull. Still getting 5 stars because I love the concept and I'd like to see more people join the app and for things to further develop.
5 ★ Wow. I love that days after I join I see the app update has the addition of user-requested features, such as speedier playback (1.5x or 2x speed). I liked the suggesrion when I first heard it in the app and I especially like that the devs are not only attentive to feedback but responsive in acting on it. The whole premise for Swell is unique. I predict if the team stays open to change in the UI, while standing by their core mission, it will be more and more successful. Kudos.
4 ★ I found the whole system very interesting. I understand the need for a human voice in conversation these days especially for those in isolation because of the pandemic. This app is on to something different. It still need some work and had a little trouble how to navigate the system and figure out when someone was speaking to me directly but Im sure I would have gotten the hang of it after a week's use of the system. I may come back to it after it's been around a while.
1 ★ Topics were not interesting to me. They were also worded in a manner that was supposed to be clever but just made it confusing and difficult to determine what the actual subject or topic of discussion was. Someone trying way to hard. A few cute and clever word puns here and there would have been fine, not every single one.
5 ★ Great App to use!
1 ★ Impossible to delete account, very small user base. Their's a good idea somewhere in here. The problem is you have maybe 10 very active users, who create the bulk of the content, and maybe another 20 who post once or twice. Not really enough to keep me interested. Normally I wouldn't post a negative review for that. But then when I tired to delete my account ( you need to sign up to see what the app does) I was unable to. I'm guessing this is deliberate so they can claim to have more users.
5 ★ This app ia really unique in its appproach Its a great place to interact and exchange opinions with people who ahare common interests
5 ★ The most amazing piece of software that I have EVER used in over 30 years of using technology daily. This platform truly transcends technology and meets the standards of becoming one with the Singularity. Geeky and heady...look just try it and you'll get it. It's unlike ANYTHING you have ever experienced with tech and social interactions.
