LinkedIn: Network & Job Finder for Negative User Reviews
✓ Keep on crashing , horrible experienceI am facing serious issues with app. LinkedIn app keep on crashing. Specially when you are in the messages and trying to type something. You spent 10 minutes to wright something and it will crash and you have to wright again. Horrible experience with new version. I have tried to uninstall and remove app data nearly 7-8 times. Still having same issues. Please fix it as soon as possible..Version: 9.1.230
✓ Out of all the OptionsThey are the most thorough platform available, full of many different types of new beginnings. However, I have not had quality customer support experiences with them. I have been trying to utilize a benefit that they offer veterans for some time now, and something is not working, but when I reach out to them for assistance, I get very little other than a vague response. I have contacted them on several occasions, but it’s still a mystery to me why this opportunity continues to elude me. I have given up hope, and I rarely use (or try to) the site anymore because of this. It makes me sad because I don’t have the resources and abilities I once possessed, and this is the best place for me to focus on what I CAN do and learn about new opportunities. I was looking forward to this being the beginning of the most lucrative and rewarding career in my lifetime. Yet, I have hit another stumbling block instead..Version: 9.1.331
✓ Racist platform - sells your ID on the Dark WebWhen I first joined LinkedIn I had support help me consolidate two accounts and that wasn’t an issue. Then because I debated some racists and debunked their lies, LinkedIn decided I was the guilty party and suspended my account. They demanded a copy of my ID front and back and/or passport. My identity could’ve been verified through my contacts who are high level attorneys, CEOs and even the Chamber of Commerce of which I am a member and LinkedIn sees that. They refused to reinstate my account. They’re racists as revealed by an article in NY Times in 2019! I then created another account and rebuilt my profile. After a while LinkedIn seeing I was getting a lot of traction to my posts restricted my account again this time claiming I had two accounts AND I NEEDED to provide a passport or ID again! These people are insane! Suddenly my credit report warned that my email address was compromised and was found on the dark web! Guess who did this? Yes, LinkedIn. This company is a racist lying bunch of thieves and you should really avoid it at all cost. It’s no longer the professional platform it once was..Version: 9.1.265
✓ Crashing!For the last few months I've been receiving "no internet connection" notifications when trying to refresh the screen - even though every other app on my phone seems to work perfectly fine. Secondly, I'm not receiving my inbox messages until days/sometimes weeks after they've been sent to me. Please rectify as this looks unprofessional when liaising with potential future employers. ————————- You allow customers to access LinkedIn premium via the app/from a mobile phone, yet when I have tried to unsubscribe I receive the following “Sorry, your plan can’t be cancelled on this device. Please visit LinkedIn on your desktop to cancel.” You are about to charge me a years subscription (over $700) to something I can’t currently cancel..Version: 9.1.295
✓ Not able to access on cellular, only WiFiI recently transferred Service from Verizon to AT&T. The LinkedIn app only works on Wi-Fi it does not work connected to cellular service. I have gone through all of the troubleshooting steps with AT&T as well as Apple. I’m on an iPhone 13 Pro. Everyone has said it is not an issue on their end that I should contact the developer. Please advise if there is some thing I can do to make this app push through on cellular service. The app is up-to-date with what’s available in the App Store for me. I use this app for business regularly and I’m currently only able to use it on my home computer or I also cannot access the LinkedIn website on a browser unless I am The app is up-to-date with what’s available in the App Store for me. I use this app for business regularly and I’m currently only able to use it on my home computer or my phone but must be connected to Wi-Fi. The strange part is on my phone I also cannot access the LinkedIn website on a browser unless I am connected to Wi-Fi. Please advise. Thank you..Version: 9.1.271
✓ Useless in China nowLinkedin used to be a perfect app in last 8 years. But after the new policy release in China it just become useless..Version: 9.1.255
✓ Can't upgradeNew version of LinkedIn doesn't work with my iPad on operating version 10.3 , why can't you make these upgrades backward compatible?.Version: 9.1.106
✓ Okay app - false notifications?App is okay, but there have been multiple times when the app says I have a notification and I log in the app just to see there is no new notification at all. The app would be much better if I don’t get these false notifications. Edited: we keep receiving the same response that our reviews get fed back to the product team, but nothing has changed. How long does it take for LinkedIn to fix a bug like that? Is that a bug at all? It’s unacceptable that I have seen people complaining about the same problem for months and years and nothing has been done about it. Sorry, down to 1 star for me..Version: 9.1.129
✓ App stalls all the timeIt’s been a while now I am struggling with this app now thinking that it might get better in the newer updates but no luck so far. It always kinda hang when I open it, even if at some time it shows up, it stalls in couple of minutes. Disappointed. 👎🏼.Version: 9.1.107
✓ Serious VoiceOver accessibility problemsI am a blind person using the screen reader voiceover for iOS and I am having some serious VoiceOver accessibility problems. For one thing, in the new version, when I double tap on my Contacts, the app crashes every time. Secondly, when I am browsing through my people you may know section, the app get slower and slower and slower the longer eyebrows. Thirdly, if you were using voiceover, there is no option to remove someone from your people you may know list so that you do not see them anymore. The accessibility problems with this app used to be somewhat minimal. I am really looking forward to seeing this app fixed and using LinkedIn again. It is one of my favorite social networking platforms. I apologize if other people are bored by this review, but LinkedIn also does not have any where in the app or on the app support page to provide feedback about the app. I would also be kind of nice if developer of LinkedIn provided details about its updates in its release notes, but many App developers don’t do this. It’s just a pet peeve..Version: 9.1.71
✓ Great app but..Great app but I have a lot of non-English speaking business acquaintances that post in their native tongue, which the app does not translate?? Maybe, LinkedIn could make a translate tab to make it easy...Version: 9.1.89
✓ ScamThey do not show you the jobs if you don’t pay them $34 per month. Which is expensive, because the same jobs are also on google too. They have scammers who impose as HR people, even doing fake interviews. If you report this to LinkedIn, they do not recognize it as a scam. I had an interview where I needed to perform a difficult 2 days test and an interview where the boss was racketeering me and harassing me. I also found more complaints about this particular company on google and Reddit but LinkedIn says, there is nothing wrong with them. Out of 200 applications, maybe 30 will download your file but only 11 will open your file. It means their platform is full of fake jobs. I have been applying for jobs straight to the companies and I know for sure they were not seeking for anyone but LinkedIn would post a job from those companies. Scam, a lot of scam. They just want your money. I was better off without them.Version: 9.1.337
✓ 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..Version: 9.1.339
✓ Rediculous bugI have to login everytime I open the app in my phone. It's rediculous! It's logging out automatically.Version: 9.1.200
✓ Please bring back exact applicants number in a job postingLooking at job market being hostile, the least we expect from an app which somehow helps the applicants in the job market like LinkedIn to work against the job seekers. Now in new release the max number of applicants I can see is 100 to any job posting. Once its more, it says 100+ applications…why? Why did you do this? Were there not enough thousands already applying to each and every job? The count was at least giving us an idea how tough the competition was, how prepared we should be, fair for everyone. Now with this new feature, you are taking away the last ray of hopes from us as job seekers. I hope you are not going to behave like other arrogant market leaders and so you feel you can take any steps because who is going to beat you in your own game. Please consider this request, or if it’s a confusion at my end somehow, I will eventually get to know and, I will delete this review. Thanks.Version: 9.1.350
✓ Dear LinkedIn can you please fix this, thank youThank you for reading my comment and enquiry today. I have a problem with the certificates section, I added in my latest certificates and they dropped to the bottom end of the certificates section. For example, I added in the certificate for providing CPR, but it is eventually put to the bottom of the certificates section. I think the latest certificates should be displayed first Otherwise, for me it would be great if I can drag and move (re-order) the certificates/licenses. Similar to what LinkedIn did for Education/volunteering section. My profile is Thomas Minh Tuan Thiên. Just in case. Thank you LinkedIn Team(s),.Version: 9.1.233
✓ Better edit abilityWe need to be able to edit/ delete photos from a post, not just text.Version: 9.1.232
✓ The absolute worst networking app...LinkedIn is the absolute worst, corrupt, and non user friendly social app out there. There are too many reasons to even begin mentioning all of them. Just to name one: if a user wants to unfriend or leave a group, LinkedIn intentionally makes it impossible to do so on the mobile app. I’m also still dealing with a “glitch” that the app had a few years ago. Without giving any permission to access my iPhone’s contacts, LinkedIn automatically dumped every one of my LinkedIn contacts into my iPhone’s contacts. Well over 500 contacts were combined with my personal contacts. Not a big deal you say? Well those contacts birthdays were then automatically also added to iPhone’s calendar. Everyday I would have at least a couple of these birthdays showing. For well over a year I was manually removing these contacts one name at a time. LinkedIn admitted to the error. Thanks that did nothing to help. So at this point I have zero trust in the integrity, honesty, or reliability of LinkedIn..Version: 9.1.136
✓ Expensive and trickyThere is a very convoluted process to cancel. It’s really designed to be tricky. And it’s such a rip off way that LinkedIn chose to do it - and blame Apple. 🤷🏻♂️ At $100 a month you never hear from Jobs you apply for. And spam is rife. This is at best a $20 a month app. Why charge $100 for people in Australia. 🐔🔨 Further you serve ads and notifications for non related jobs. And expect us to be thankful that you are taking money from the advertisers and from us - seeing out of area ads - and jobs for complete different industries which are no way related. I guess we are just paying to give you stats to justify advertising fees for recruiters 🙄.Version: 9.1.356
✓ App isn’t workingBeen getting a pop up error message for a week now saying the app no longer works and to go to the mobile site. I have deleted and reinstalled but pop up error still in place. Please advise..Version: 9.1.228
✓ Charge you for premium service. You never get it.I used to love logging into LinkedIn to see What my professional network was announcing, who was moving where, and keeping up-to-date with all of the new product announcements. The new algorithms allow all the “influencers” to push never ending promotions to everyone, but should you want to announce a new product launch and copy paste it to 3 groups, you will be classified as breaking the rules and using third-party software and thereby blocked. It has basically become unusable for a small business to announce product launches, as even if you copy paste, something you’ll be classified as using automated third-party software and breaking the rules. I’m pretty sure every big company won’t be struggling with this issue, but the small guy is as always screwed. I have tried to contact customer service, 11 times in the three weeks that I have been blocked, and yet they don’t answer, but still happy to charge me for the premium service..Version: 9.1.353
✓ Stuck on verification processI made my account two weeks ago and I had already successfully verified my identity, but last week it asked me to submit some photo identification again, but now I am stuck in a loop. Whenever I try to submit it, it says that I have already submitted a request. Other than this, I have loved this app so far.Version: 9.1.342
✓ What have you done to iPad users in last update!!Seriously- what are your developers doing? You have just guaranteed I won’t be able to use the app on my iPad. While before this update I could see posts reasonably well across the landscape layout now I have a tiny narrow mobile phone image in the central part of a landscape screen that shows almost nothing and I now can’t post from it because the space where text should appear disappears upwards out of sight due to the mobile phone profile! Please reverse this decision or produce an IPad specific app version - urgently!.Version: 9.1.340
✓ The app is not supported?I’m not able to use the app anymore, as it’s not supported for some reason? Instead it takes me to the website, where I have to login each time. Extremely annoying! Why discriminate users who don’t want to waste money on the newest phone just because of apps if my current phone is working perfectly fine! Why don’t you support all versions? It says it needs iOS 13 or more, I don’t have it! My phone is in excellent condition and is working perfectly, why are you pushing me to buy another one? Don’t discriminate users!.Version: 9.1.233
✓ Don’t like companies that forces you update appLinkedIn hasn’t been user friendly for a long time.Version: 9.1.192
✓ Had become a nuisance appWhy have you designed the app to generate pointless notifications? I get a red dot notification, and when I go to the Notifications tab, I’m met with a message telling me I don’t have any notifications. It also tells me to complete my profile, but after navigating to my profile it is not made clear what you think is missing. So I leave the app - only for you to create a new notification. And so the cycle continues. Unless you remove this ridiculous stream of boy-who-cried-wolf notifications, I’ll have to remove your app. Update: Thanks for the response but it does not address the problem. There is no specific notification to mute. A notification is generated by the app but does not correspond to any real notification. I have pretty much all notifications turned off except for activity involving me. I thought this was clear in my original text. Update 2: I’ve not made any further changes but the issue of being ‘notified of nothing’ has gone away since the latest run of updates. They must have either knowingly or unknowingly fixed it..Version: 9.1.84
✓ 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..Version: 9.1.342
✓ I’m supposed to pay for this privilege4 days ago I paid for premium and my first communication the app crashes every time I add a photo. Now when I try to cancel my subscription l receive a msg saying I can’t. I cleared all pending support cases and it still says I can’t cancel AND now that I must contact Apple” Wasted a great deal of my time in the first instance of trying to use premium services and now I’m getting the run around. My attempt at communication and premium services failed me terribly and I have now completed my communications through other means. LINKEDIN CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION PLEASE - APPLE CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION PLEASE - Could you make this whole experience any more difficult?.Version: 9.1.71
✓ Intrusive and annoyingI like LinkedIn as a service but the app is painful. I’ve turned off all notifications because it constantly lies about there being things to see. It persistently asks you to let it have access to your contacts even though you say no. Even though I’ve said no to allowing access to my contacts, it deceptively suggests adding people I know who aren’t even on LinkedIn. Sometimes I have messages from people that don’t show up in the app. It’s a disgusting app..Version: 9.1.51
✓ Frustrating on iPadOk so LinkedIn has become a default for all of us when networking professionally but if I can't update it on the move (which I am A LOT and my iPad is my go to device) then it's near useless. I work in a project oriented way and this is one of the sections I can simply do nothing with on ios. Well, it's even worse than that. It seems like I can go into accomplishments/ projects/ add projects but then there is no save button! It is impossible to save! How ridiculous. I have checked recent software updates, de nada. Back to clunking along via a browser? C'mon guys, sort it out..Version: 9.1.65
✓ The app hangs as soon as I start to browseThe app keeps hanging all the time. I open the app scroll down a bit and then it’s not letting me do anything. Click on any tabs, scroll up or down. Have tried to open and close many times still no improvement. Using iPhone XS Max. I hope development team can see this message and replicate and fix the issue.Version: 9.1.224
✓ Logout bugApp keeps logging you out..Version: 9.1.209
✓ Opportunity for improvementGood app and great platform. But needs to be able to change the feed to most recent and not see the same posts for the last 3 weeks to months. Job postings etc that are weeks old and now closed, posts I’ve already seen. Allow people to sort to most recent and keep updated on all content, not the same repetitive content. If other platforms can do it (Ie Facebook) I’m not sure why LinkedIn cannot..Version: 9.1.165
✓ Doesn’t work well on iOSI love LinkedIn and spend a lot of time on it. I have noticed more often than not errors about no internet connection (when I’m on LTE), ‘oops something went wrong errors’ or other random issues. Please fix them!!.Version: 9.1.109
✓ New sign in request on every time you open the aplHey Team at Linkden! Don’t know what have you changed in the new update. Everything time I open my app even with the FaceId recognition it still asks me to login and put my details manually! It’s become an absolute nightmare using the app. Being a professional I have to go on the app and use it..but now it’s insane.Version: 9.1.209
✓ Censorship and leftist ideologyIf you DARE go against any corporate sponsored leftist ideology as you are pushed non stop to adopt it, you will be censored, and lists made of you..Version: 9.1.332
✓ Really disappointed and frustratedReally disappointing that LinkedIn has stopped supporting iOS before 13.0. Like many people have said my iPad is fine just a bit old and I don’t need the latest tech especially when reuse lengthen use and recycle is key in the attempts be more sustainable. I also don’t have the funds for a newer iPad. As a newer job seeker linked in is pushing the “ let recruiters know you are open to work” feature, the only snag being you need the app to do that. So LinkedIn instead of creating an even platform for all you are creating more divide and inequality. Am sure that’s not your intention and if you can fix this there will be many more happy users..Version: 9.1.276
✓ The app for fake peopleMost of the content I’ve encountered on this app is fake. Fake people with their fake jobs and fake integrity awards. No. These are the lowest most untrustworthy people on the planet. Sorry but I can’t play your charades. The job section is a hot mess. More fake advertisements than Indeed and that’s hard to beat. Then you have a bunch of fake made of companies with their websites that took them under and hour to make. Are people still being fooled? Most of the jobs that are real are expired and outdated or closed. It just a stalker app. Provides no real business connections or opportunities. if you try to delete the profile they still want to advertise you for up to 2 more weeks. Sorry but when I delete you no longer have the option to do anything with my personal information. This app is useless. Just people spying on me or sending odd spam email. I can’t wait until I figure out how to reclaim my information from these jerks!.Version: 9.1.319
✓ SlowI get it it’s a growing network but it’s been around it a while now, and yet their system is still slow. Using it is like using a Facebook for work, but with 1 bar of wifi that keeps turning off 24/7. Other than that, it’s just like the web, it’s great for networking and everyone should get started on it for their careers!.Version: 9.1.143
✓ Too many notificationsI just went through over 8 pages of preferences turning off junk / spammy notifications. Unacceptable for a company of Microsoft’s stature..Version: 9.1.345
✓ Laggy ExperienceWhile everything works extremely well on a 15 pro max, LinkedIn is terrible. Always choppy, recently even choppier performance wise. Can't scroll a single page on this app that won't stutter, which is unacceptable....Version: 9.1.350
✓ Only sort of usefulAn account is basically required by potential employers if you’re applying to white collar jobs, but is incredibly difficult to sort thru or actually get a response from companies- especially if you are applying thru linkedin itself. Would recommend only using the app to find companies that sound interesting, vetting them thru glassdoor, then applying via the company website itself. Suggestion 1 for better UX: limit applications to 100 per job with job listings closing automatically upon hitting 100 apps received. I am tired of seeing open job listings with 100+ applicants because i KNOW that the hiring managers are only skimming the top 5% of applicants from the pile and then underpaying them for their experience. Suggestion 2 for better UX: Years of required experience being listed as a filter within job listings search. I am not interested in a job that pays entry level wages or says “fast paced environment” and then requires 5-7 years of experience AND a bachelors..Version: 9.1.221
✓ Fix this apoKicks me out whenever I try to unfollow something..Version: 9.1.214
✓ Unprofessional on accessibilityLinkedIn is good. I have always found the app has a second rate user experience. Even worse - being visually impaired I sometimes use text to speech - parts of this app are unusable with VoiceOver in iOS. Posts cannot be read once any notification is followed - I.e. outside of the newsfeed - and only “actions available” is announced. The bar containing the interaction button a (like, comment, share) is treated as one object; double tapping it activates the comment function, but what if I want to like or share?? LinkedIn, you need to get your house (including accessibility testing) in order please. I really hope you’ll read, respond and reply to this. I would appreciate knowing what you are going to do..Version: 9.1.185
✓ Always has the “Something Went Wrong” pageHave had the LinkedIn app for years on multiple phones and 4/5 pages will always have the “Something Went Wrong” screen on it so that it’s nearly impossible to use the app. I’ll get notifications and messages and can’t see them on my phone no matter how much a refresh the app. Probably one of the worst performing apps I’ve ever had, especially for a well-known company. Very frustrating..Version: 9.1.237
✓ LinkedIn won't updateIt was working fine until few days ago when upon launching the LinkedIn app a pop-up message said I had to update the app. Having no other choice to dismiss the message, I clicked on update but AppStore doesn't show any option to update but only to "open" app. I am guessing my iPhone 5 has reached the end as I cannot update LinkedIn. This is unnecessarily frustrating and now I'm not able too launch LinkedIn app anymore since I can't update it! Please either fix this or let me continue using LinkedIn app without updating!! The only way I can access my LinkedIn now is to use a browser like safari but that is too inconvenient as the fonts are so tiny..Version: 9.1.106
✓ Evil platformLinkedin is 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..Version: 9.1.374
✓ Stop snooping on the clipboard 👎Come on now..Version: 9.1.183
✓ Too many sponsored posts !Ridiculous: 1/4 of posts on my LinkedIn feed are sponsored posts. Come on, give us a break!.Version: 9.1.215
✓ App crashing frequentlyIOS version: 16.2 App is crashing frequently when messaging people. Sending a message takes a lot of time and app keeps crashing while waiting after pressing send button..Version: 9.1.295
✓ Constant ‘no internet connection’In theory this is a good app, use it when it works. However over 50% of the time it doesn’t work and requires you to hard reset your internet options - which isn’t worth doing for an app. Deleted.Version: 9.1.196
✓ Terrible tech support as a professional platformLinkedIn closed my account for absolutely no reason. After I’ve updated the Linkedin App, I was asked to re-login, but instead of logging into my existing account, it created a new profile for me, completely blank. I was confused at first but was still able to search up my old account and thought of it as a tech glitch. I reached out to the service team and waited a few days before reaching out again, after they said they’ll transfer my case to another team. By now I can no longer find my old account and am panicking, since it contains all my connections and the profile that I’ve built long and hard for. The team responded saying my account is restricted permanently for misrepresenting my identity, after I’ve provided my ID, and closed my case with no other details. Now I’m stuck with no information and a brand new account and no access to any of my past connections. I have offered the team to provide any relevant info to verify my past work/volunteering experiences, but I am just greatly disappointed by LinkedIn tech support. I’ve been patience since the start and comply with the rules, despite the great inconvenience that this has caused me work-wise, but I’m simply frustrated now that I may never get my account back for absolutely no reason. Apparently this has been an issue for many people and I don’t understand why it continues to be one, being one of the most professional platform used by thousands..Version: 9.1.320
✓ Lagging like it’s 2010Writing messages makes it lag so much it’s like using a gen 1 iPhone to type..Version: 9.1.309
✓ Insanely overpriced$50 a month to see who viewed your profile….Version: 9.1.344
✓ Surprise chargesSigned up for the premium free trial, didnt like it so deleted my account well before the trial ended. you would think deleting yourself off of linkedin would mean you wouldnt be able to open a premium account and get charged $50 for nothing but that is exactly what happened. so yeah, if youre unemployed and on a limited income - beware of the risks of using this service, not only did it not provide me any work whatsoever it scammed me out of $50..Version: 9.1.148
✓ Usually great until...Usually this app is great until I tried to purchase a premium subscription. After making the payment via iTunes I wasn’t able to use the feature. When I contacted LinkedIn they told me iTunes/apple hadn’t passed on subscription details for my account and I needed to speak with iTunes. When I contact iTunes they told me the issue was with LinkedIn and I needed to go back to them. Basically I’ve been sent on a wild goose chase with no solution. I’ve since requested a full refund as I haven’t been able to use my premium account. Very disappointing..Version: 9.1.130
✓ Auto closingThe app is auto closing when trying to open. It might be causing after recent update.Version: 9.1.317
✓ Clingy and irritatingEvery time you open the app it bugs you with un-avoidable notifications. Connect with these people. Invite(spam) these people from your contact list. Follow these topics. Follow these companies. Update your profile. Then you make it through the defenders and you have 40 connection requests from people you don’t even know. I’m sure it’s useful for power users - people who use it to spam and connect to 1000’s of people at once, but the downside is that it’s an awful experience for the average infrequent user who just wants to network with people they actually know..Version: 9.1.53
✓ Cannot post from appI have been trying to create a post through the app (standard post with one photo and tagging 4 people), the keyboard glitches, tagged people don’t appear in bold and the app eventually crashes every single time..Version: 9.1.283
✓ PatheticYou cannot save anything on this app, straight up joke and waste of time..Version: 9.1.183
✓ Nonfiction settings don’t work!I only want to receive notifications for my own posts or posts I’m mentioned in. Yet I get ones saying “name reacted to a post” and it’s just any random post. When I select “turn off notifications for this type” it turns off every post, like and comment notification meaning I don’t get notifications about comments on my own posts. I just want to know when someone likes or comments on my own posts. I don’t want notifications about random posts I’m not involved in and don’t want anything to do with. Also, when are we going to get the feature to show recent posts rather than top posts. You’re able to set this in the desktop version, make it available in the app!!.Version: 9.1.339
✓ APP freezes on Iphone, when you swipe right for the menu....The APP freezes every time the menu is accessed. i've reinstalled the app several times restarted my phone, and there is no fix it is really annoying..Version: 9.1.352
✓ Frustrating Experience with Persistent NotificationsI rarely leave reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with LinkedApp. While the concept of the app initially seemed promising, my experience has been marred by a single, yet significant issue that has significantly impacted its usability for me. The app features a "catch up" notification that, no matter how much I've tried, cannot be turned off. This persistent notification not only clutters my notification bar but also serves as a constant, unwelcome reminder of the app's presence on my device. Despite going through all available settings and even reaching out to support, the issue persists with no solution in sight. This oversight in design or functionality oversight shows a lack of consideration for user preferences and autonomy, making it hard to recommend LinkedApp to others. An app should empower and enhance, not annoy and intrude. Until this issue is addressed, I'm afraid I can only rate LinkedApp 1 star. Disappointing, as I had high hopes for what it could offer..Version: 9.1.350
✓ Why is LinkedIn App is not working on any ios version above 10 and on any iPadI have been updating regularly my ios on my iPad and did the same with the App accordingly. Apple is blocking further update on some ofits device ( probably to force you to buy a more recent iPad) so the Linked App can't be upgraded further. My iPad is running under ios 10.3.4 version but apparently linked App in is not supporting this version anymore and i can't use any longer the app which is very disappointing in deed. Why can't you support it?? Something that use to be great the LinkedIn App now turns really bad because of a stupid update!! Why?? Surely Linked in best interest is to increase its number of active users not to drop them because of technical updates. I am sure that the executives at Linked In and Microsoft should be able to understand that!!! Could you please listen to your users and do what is required to support us what ever version or update we are on!...Version: 9.1.106
✓ DifficultI was just trying to make an account for the app but it kept going back to the first page I was on when I first went into the app. It typically was frustrating with every single time I opened the app I had to go through a sequence of questions regarding friends that were on linkedin and inviting those who weren’t. It was too much effort just to look for a job. (not that is should be effortless).Version: 9.1.178
✓ Not all functionalities available and crashes when trying to invite people to follow a pageJust tried to invite people to follow our company page but when clicking on invite the app just closes and invites aren’t sent out. Tried it three times and it happened each time. Also there doesn’t seem to be a way to repost using the company profile and not the personal profile. So not a full replacement for the browser version..Version: 9.1.294
✓ Too expensive!Calling it for what it is. A typical social media site. If there is any pertinent information to the members they have to be paying for the premium level at roughly $80.00 a month. 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..Version: 9.1.311
✓ App gets stuck while scrolling down the newsfeedThis has been happening on my phone from a long time, there have been several updates for this app which i thought may fix the issue. But it still happens, making the app unuseable for me. Please fix it.Version: 9.1.116
✓ Not worth of cost1. Standard system generated response will come to this comment rather than some logical answer. 2. Advertisements are irrelevant. Even YouTube is removing advertisement after becoming a premium members. 3. Premium courses are not up to mark. 4. Benefits of premium members are not worth the money..Version: 9.1.201
✓ Stop emailing me pleaseTurned off all notifications in app, which isn’t a simple toggle you have to go through a load of sections to turn everything off yet I’m still getting emails. Also tried the unsubscribe link and that doesn’t work. I also don’t like how I have to unsubscribe for each email type. Why isn’t there an unsubscribe for all option. Bombarding me with emails is really making me dislike this app to the point of me wanting to close my account. But that then means I loose connection with a bunch of people I’ve worked with as linked-in has a monopoly on work based social media. I’m a very light user, surely there is enough recruitment agencies and serial career climbers to cover the costs and to just leave me alone. Pretty sure if I emailed someone has much as linked emails me I would have a restraining order point on me. Yes I could just mark it all as spam or setup a rule to move it to a folder. I don’t want a folder full of pointless emails, and I don’t particularly want them filling up my spam folder either. #firstworldproblems But when you get emails everyday that you don’t want it gets very annoying..Version: 9.1.341
✓ Job search section needs improvingThere used to be a separate job search app, which was great, but this has been retired. Job searches on the LI app are now a nightmare. I set up a filter with my criteria and it keeps deleting itself so I have to reset it every time. It used to work before but since a few days ago this keeps happening. Even when it worked, it would not save my filter search to “most recent”. I don’t care about most relevant, as someone looking for work, I am constantly searching so need to see the latest!! Please do something about it, it’s really frustrating. Still no progress. It’s actually getting worse and worse. Won’t let me select a city if I filter by country. It’s just so user-unfriendly 🤦🏼♀️.Version: 9.1.138
✓ New UI layout has no consideration for people with visual disabilitiesPaid for a premium account which now I cannot use because the UI is very bright. I am hypersensitive to light and I can’t use it. Want my money back please. Thanks for your response. I am rather dissatisfied and disappointed that you have ignored the core issue: which is essentially lack of consideration in the UI layout for people with visual disabilities. People with disabilities- you ignored those when redesigning the UI. You have not considered nor did you had in mind the user experience. At the end of the day is not about the money it is about wanting to use the product but not being able to because the extreme brightness harms me and I have no option to tune it down from the app or from the webpage..Version: 9.1.193
✓ Atrocious customer serviceAfter being charged over $600 for a product I didn’t realize I even bought due to their confusing interface I am being refused a refund and sent the same generic message about their no refund policy over and over again. I have used this website for years and am appalled by their dishonest practice. If you decide to ever use this website or app don’t ever buy premium (it’s useless) and don’t ever put your card information on it or you might fall victim to what I’m going through. They make it too easy ti misinterpret something and buy something with an insane price tag without realizing what you’re agreeing to. The app is also poorly designed as well. If you check Trust Pilot and the Better Business Bureau, they have a one star rating which is a huge red flag. Personally I would say avoid at all costs and don’t ever give them any if your information except for the bare minimum. Don’t expect a transparent app, business practice or to ever any kind of real conversation with customer service. Avoid at all cost but if you must use it Keep your expectations extremely low..Version: 9.1.285
✓ Useful app. Too many notificationsI’ve been using LinkedIn for a few years now, and find it useful. However, over the past few months, the sheer number of notifications has steadily increased, to the point where I can no longer discern when something really does require my attention. After reading reviews from other users this morning, I’ve now gone in and changed the settings to reduce the number, so will revisit this review in a few days. I feel it would be useful for LinkedIn to give the Settings feature greater visibility..Version: 9.1.51
✓ Annoying and disrespectful appI turned off almost all notifications in the app, but I daily get a badge on the icon and the notification in the app says that there are no notifications. Very scammy and disrespectful way of trying to get me to launch the app each day. If this doesn’t get changed the app will share Facebook’s fate on my phone and get deleted, and I might check LinkedIn once a month or so through the website. I don’t want to turn off notifications completely because a few of them are useful and wanted. Just don’t create fake notifications.Version: 9.1.116
✓ Sort function for posts is sadly lackingReally like the app, the chat function could be more visible, but this app is totally missing a sort function for posts especially a Chronological sort.Version: 9.1.219
✓ App is great except cannot choose languageApp's languagefollows ios system' language, not like linkedin website, you can choose preffeted language..Version: 9.1.104
✓ Keep having to log inIn the last update the app asks you for your login credentials every time you open it. Please fix..Version: 9.1.200
✓ Monkeys program LinkedIn’s algorithmsLinkedIn is a serial offender of last release notes. We don’t even get to know what they’re changing in the app with each release. Maybe instead of boasting of how great LinkedIn is to provide the “best possible experience”, you should reconsider your job matching algorithm. Something’s seriously wrong with LinkedIn’s algorithm. I received an email saying that my profile is ready for recruiters after I added location, job preferences, position and skills…and LinkedIn still gets it wrong. As a product manager working in Sydney, I’m definitely NOT looking for roles as a Medical Receptionist in Hobart, TAS, an Early Resolutions Officer, a Deputy-Principal Head of Year 10-12 role in Mornington, VIC, a Machine Tool Fitter in Bunbury, WA, a French Teacher in Heidelberg, VIC, a Financial Accountant in Northcote, VIC etc. etc. Please don’t have these algorithms be programmed by monkeys. Well, maybe monkeys would do a better job… Apart from this, please consider your release notes to be more detailed instead of the same “we’re here to provide you with the best possible experience and fix bugs”. Quite obviously, there are still bugs and I hope that search results like these are not considered the “best possible experience”. That is, unless you’ve set the bar for “possible” pretty low. Release notes are not there for patting yourself on the shoulder..Version: 9.1.374
✓ A failure in corporate governanceThe app works quite well against the basic proposition - once you’ve actually managed to reach that point. To get there, you’ll need to summit K2 - metaphorically at least: Every time you launch it, you’ll be taken through a cleverly crafted set of Yes/Next/No/Continue questions designed to get at your address list and all of its contact details. If this isn’t what you intend, be very careful and alert on each launch. I found it much simpler to just uninstall and give up on the app. Whoever decided this corporate policy has made a huge mistake of judgement..Version: 9.1.91
✓ Option to improve feed needs to be improvedThe app is solid and very easy to use. My complaints are the content in the Feed and that the option “improve my feed” really offers no real options except adding new people to follow. It should be flexible and let you choose what you want to see more of OR less of. For example, in my feed I don't need to see every single time a connection “likes” something. I also remember I always used to see when my current connections connected to new people. I used to see those a lot every day. That was helpful info if a contact connected to someone new in my industry. It worked well in conjunction with the other “people I may know” info. I almost never see those types of updates anymore in my feed. Can you explain why the feed offers me zero flexibility to see the things that are most important to me?.Version: 9.1.61
✓ Woke GarbageConnecting professionals sounds so simple but no, it has to be woke. Pushing pronouns and whatever else is the next woke culture nonsense..Version: 9.1.264
✓ Not user friendlyLinkedIn itself is basically Facebook for your working life but the only people really using it are telemarketers who use the info you publish to target your role for whatever the scam du jour is. Worse still every time you launch the app it asks you to invite every person you ever knew, looked at or heard of as a contact which completely negates any benefit from having the personal vetting process that a link (should) entail. That is essentially a referral system and the main reason I joined this ... whatever it is. Anyway if you need LinkedIn on the go by all means use it, but if you want a good experience as well don’t. You might also want to assess what benefit you are getting from using LinkedIn at all..Version: 9.1.102
✓ Broken appYour last version seems to be broken. I have to login every time I switch screen, the login does not persist. It’s beyond annoying.Version: 9.1.200
✓ Add key FilterPlease, to reflect the changing World and to support transparency and inclusiveness, to promote better and time-efficient experience of using your App, sounds critical to add a Filter to clarify whether Jobs offers mandate any medical measure (example covid-19 vaccination ) as essential condition of application. The clarity of this information would be appreciated by many! Would you be able to implement this? Thanks greatly!.Version: 9.1.255
✓ 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..Version: 9.1.250
✓ Spyware (Microsoft definitely knows better)App is constantly copying your data from the clipboard. Anything text, images, etc. that you copy is recorded by the app. Even when using other apps. Privacy NIGHTMARE. Their excuse of this being a “bug” is obviously bogus..Version: 9.1.183
✓ NotificationsWhat’s with the gizzillion notifications of jobs that match my criteria then when you click on them it says nothing matches my search...Version: 9.1.153
✓ LinkedIn rules your careerLinkedIn is getting a way too powerful player thanks to the network effect. This puts their users in an unbalanced position where they don’t have much power left. For example, Linkedin won’t allow you to create multiple personae. And they won’t let you connect to their app if you use a VPN. And they will ask you for your ID if they decide to do so and lock you out of the service until you comply to their rules. Maybe you don’t mind today as you get benefits from it. But think about it’s just the beginning. Tomorrow will be worst once you will have no more choice than being listed there..Version: 9.1.305
✓ Useless and scams for moneyFirst of all this app does not serve its purpose. There are no feasible jobs within a reasonable distance. All high school entry or hours away. I feel as though it’s more for pompous people to brag about their successful lives. Indeed is much more useful and actually has a variety of careers. Second they tried to ploy me for my money. I got an email offering me a free one month LinkedIn premium subscription. I put my required card info and the automatic purchase amount is set to a $500 yearly renewal? After I change it to a month and toggle with the premium benefits, I go to cancel. Now it is telling me I need to do so on desktop. I don’t have a computer, my laptop just broke. How is it that in order to sign up for features that require money my phone works just fine, but when I need to cancel said features I cannot use the same device? I’d say it’s all pretty convenient considering their strict no refund policy. You know what you’re doing LinkedIn 😉 I was able to google it and get it fixed in under 20 mins. A hassle and inconvenience. Thanks for the free benefits tho!.Version: 9.1.342
✓ Bad SEOThis app is really frustrating to use. When looking at a company’s open roles, I can’t filter by location because it will just reset the search to all jobs in that location, not restricting to the company whose page I was just on. If I try to restrict further by searching the company name, all these unrelated jobs show up in the search. This doesn’t happen on desktop so I’m not sure why it’s happening on mobile. Also the filters aren’t very functional - so many jobs that are included in the “entry level” filter but require 7+ years experience, or are marked as fully remote but are actually fully in person. The jobs I’m recommended aren’t even close to the field or function of my current roles. My home feed is just full of fake inspirational posts about CEOs deigning to give their employees breadcrumbs and people foaming at the mouth over their “generosity”. It’s not a good tool anymore..Version: 9.1.322
✓ Needs improvement FIX FIX FIXIt’s driving me bananas but if you search for a job and put one of the filters on (company, date posted, industry, function etc) sometimes if you put a second filter on, it will remove the first filter. Please please please fix this. I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max and am running the newest IOS software. It is driving me crazy. Also!! When you go to select “company” there are many companies that you are able to choose from or you can search for one, you should make one of the defaults be the company the person is currently at or ones that they search a lot not random jobs. It doesn’t make sense why the default ones aren’t based on frequency. I don’t understand how such a powerful and renown company can have so many bugs with their searching features. Hire more engineers. It’s unfortunate there is nothing like LinkedIn because I would love to use anything that doesn’t make me want to rip my hair out..Version: 9.1.312
✓ Its just OK which is NOT EnoughThe LinkedIn app has several limitations which seem unacceptable as one of the top social networks in the world. To begin, you cannot fully edit your own profile in the app. I’ve tried and there are either error messages that populate or entire sections unavailable for editing. Secondly, when finding content on your connections profiles which you would like to share, the “share” feature does not work the same. It displays on your feed as “Shared on LinkedIn” instead of the thumbnail of the content from connection that ought to display. Thirdly, the UI looks pretty bad and not designed responsively. On iPad, there is tons of dead white space along both the right and left sides. Why? I guess I expect that the app version of LinkedIn should be probably BETTER than the web since we live in an age where most people are on the move and don’t have a computer screen in front of them..Version: 9.1.98
✓ WhyDecent app but why the hell does it give you a notification when someone views your profile? And them when you see theirs? Rude. I just want to stalk in peace..Version: 9.1.355
✓ Has turned into a trashy dating siteWas once a great networking site with professionalism. Now I receive unsolicited messages from businesses I have absolute interest in, requests for friendship and connection requests from people I’ve never met. All I see are so called “inspiring quotes” and people who call themselves thought leaders. I’m a hiring manager and I much prefer the old fashioned way of receiving CVs, shoulder tapping or people giving me a call..Version: 9.1.75
✓ Lack of compatibility with older iOSDisappointed that the decision has been made to effectively brick the app on anything earlier than iOS13. My iPad doesn’t update higher than 12.x but is perfectly functional. I can see the latest timeline has loaded in the background. I also understand the push to stop supporting old tech, I work in the industry and have done for 20+ years. I live the pain of legacy versions every day. However, you could take the route of retaining access via the app with the warning that as you develop some features will either stop working or be unstable. Most users would accept this, it’s not a life critical app, it’s effectively social media. The experience on your mobile app through the browser is less intuitive, less friendly and actually just painful. Perhaps you could improve that UX instead if you’re pushing people down that route. You should do that before removing access to the good UX. In an age of focus on sustainability and discouraging throw away culture it is perhaps time to reappraise abandoning users because they are not on the latest kit. Those people may be on older kit for the right reasons. If it isn’t broken why would I consign it to the bin?.Version: 9.1.233
✓ App not displaying correctlyI have enjoyed the LinkedIn app over the years but the recent iteration has a bug. It won’t display properly on my screen. When I’m in the app, it asks me to use the app. I can’t navigate to the options such as message function or to view connections or my profile. Please fix it!.Version: 9.1.301
✓ CrashesAs soon as I open it crashes. Can’t use….Version: 9.1.317
✓ Great app, but has problemsIt’s a great app, but I have to put a low rating to get some attention. This used to be very stable, but in the latest releases messaging has become incredibly slow and unreliable, often the app will crash on an iPhone 12 just from sending a message. Let’s fix that, and I’ll update it five stars!.Version: 9.1.294
✓ Cancelling premium is impossibleFrom your phone it is extremely difficult. Why can’t that option be included in the app? Hate blatantly making cancelations difficult.Version: 9.1.112
✓ BlowsThe new app sucks its slow and isn’t compatible with older phones.Version: 9.1.205
✓ Chronological content feed - second attempt.LinkedIn... I love your platform. I have already posted a comment on the lack of a sort by “recent” function on for iOS. When I’m on my phone, the work around is to go to your mobile site, then request the desktop site, then select “sort by: recent”. The most recent update you just pushed out now has “lives” or something that feels like a clone of Instagram/YouTube/Snapchat/Facebook, etc. I do not subscribe to these platforms because I believe LinkedIn is the only social media platform of any substance. There is quality content and networking happening everyday. Why did your newest update add a cookie-cutter “lives” function and not a simple “sort by:recent” function. Why am I seeing 3 week old posts with recent posts scattered about. Totally ridiculous... The one platform I thought was doing a service to a community of professional people is slowly becoming just another social media platform..Version: 9.1.111
✓ One bug always kills meOverall a functional app, could do with makeover / aesthetic review to make posts more readable. BUG - when accepting a connection request, you are automatically sent to a list of suggested connections. Attempting to EXIT this list (X) freezes the app on iOS and requires a restart. This has been persistent for months now - please fix..Version: 9.1.118
✓ Log in every time I open the app?!The latest version keeps logging me out and I have to log in again every time I open the app! Please fix it!.Version: 9.1.209
✓ Fine but..Ridiculous to have it stop working altogether because you haven’t updated. And when you have to be on WiFi to update- this can cause work problems. Have updated- see no noticeable difference. What was the point of stopping use of the app to update?.Version: 9.1.310
✓ Could be so much betterYet again, I have missed the deadline for applications for a position. Some might say this is my fault, but I don’t think it is, as LinkedIn chooses when I see any given post. Yes, I could use a browser to sort my feed into chronological order, but why have an app if you have to use a browser anyway? It’s a simple fix, allow the user to decide what order posts are displayed, you can still push your advertising posts, but stop hiding the reason we are using your service. I will be removing the app, at least during this time when seeing a job advert on time is important. Thanks LinkedIn!.Version: 9.1.317
✓ A lot of bugsLogging me out. Nothing this refreshing. App crashes..Version: 9.1.210
✓ It has potentialLinkedIn is 5 stars when it comes to your profile and networking options. However, the job search feature needs work. The filters do not work very. For example, I always select the “on-site” and “hybrid” options for locations, and yet I will get job after job that is “remote” even though I have purposely not chosen that as an option. The website has the same issue if you try to use it on a PC. The site is also buggy from the employers side. My team has tried multiple times to post a job and I have received the same error claiming that there is an issue with my email. The app/website support is poor and I have not been able to successfully contact them. LinkedIn could make every other platform irrelevant if they could just improve their job search engine..Version: 9.1.345
✓ No iPad good layoutLinkedIn is a great application on smartphone and computer but this LinkedIn app is not good. I have the feeling that it’s just the smartphone version and you change the resolution to feet with tablet. Although this layout is perfect for smartphone, I think that it is terrible for tablet, I definitely prefer the web version of LinkedIn instead of this app..Version: 9.1.292
✓ Text entryOn iOS I’m used to using the native swipe to type in pretty much every app I use. It works well apart from in the Linked In app. Could it be that you’re doing a lot of processing that gets in the way? Whatever it is that’s happening it means that words often get missed increasing the friction to add content. So much so that I’m reluctant to bother adding value this way. Can you fix, please?.Version: 9.1.192
✓ I hope you like junk MailI’ve never had so much junk email from a company before. I used my main email so as to really keep my finger on the pulse, and it destroyed my inbox! One of those ones where you unsubscribe from one, but they have 50 other departments continuing to spam you with email. I was literally getting an average of ten a day. Sort it out Linkenin!.Version: 9.1.334
✓ Heats up phoneOpened the app today. Haven’t used it in a while. After 20 min of browsing around the back of my phone was very HOT. Why would “LinkedIn” require so much processing that it heats the phone up. Obviously something is wrong Closed the app and the phone cooled off fairly quick. I’ll delete and use LinkedIn on the web going forward..Version: 9.1.319
✓ The app on mobile is getting worse.Try and post with a picture or three or five and it just won’t work. You used to be able to post an article with pictures, but in the last month it’s become useless. When a post fails you get a button to tap so you can ‘retry to upload’, except you can’t tap it. If a button looks like a button and is a button, make sure it’s tappable. It’s basic UX..Version: 9.1.71
✓ No response back from recruitersHey guys don’t waste your time on this app. I needed a job ASAP, as I was working casually in a warehouse so I uploaded my resume and offer letter in this app. For sure they showed several jobs matching your profile but none of them give you a back response . It’s been more than a month and I was really hoping that this app would help me to find a job. Even I didn’t get to celebrate my Christmas and new year because I was unemployed.Version: 9.1.295
✓ 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!.Version: 9.1.235
✓ Job search charges and low quality applicantsIt seems LinkedIn is using AI in benefit of LinkedIn not users. I am using job search in past 7 years. It was working fine. Very clear and straight forward. Now it says free of charge ad but it works for couple of hours with 90% non relaxant applicants. When I started paid ads it started to charge me by any click on my ad. My daily budget finished within 9 hours. In free ad I could see cv of applicants. Now in paid ad it doesn’t show cv of applicants. I tried to contact support. I found there is no support contacts. It is showing support articles with general info. I understand LinkedIn needs money to survive but this is not the way a professional app make money. I am ok to pay extra but having access to filtered applicants at least with 4-5 days search. App recommend LinkedIn recruiter app. I checked reviews of app and found it is not a suitable one. Hope developer sees my review and at least connect me to a support team member..Version: 9.1.334
✓ LinkdInGreat articles to peruse. Should be able to turn the app to view sideways though..Version: 9.1.51
✓ Frustrating when openingThe functioning of the app is fine once you get in but it is super frustrating having to click through a dozen pages of people to connect with on various platforms every time you open the app. I don’t want to do that every time! I would rather have a big “find connections” or “find links” or “link me in” button that will take me through these steps when I want to, or one page that asks if I want to go through possible connections that goes through the pages of I say yes and skips them ALL and logs me straight in if I say no. It really deters me from using the app more regularly..Version: 9.1.152
✓ Account was Banned?I log in to see that my account was banned and have to verify??? That’s never happened to me before and there’s no reason stating what “suspicious activity” is being done? Even to get help as in a support ticket, or via email, you have to sign in but I CAN’T because my account is banned for no apparent reason! You guys need to seriously state the specific reasons as to why accounts are banned because I haven’t done anything but use your guys clarify app to get verified and also apply to jobs and post my degree so what’s the reason I’m so called “banned” for? Your customer service is horrible as well.. they’re should definitely be an easier way to contact someone other than being a member because you ban us for no reason and it’s impossible getting a hold of you guys. At that, it doesn’t even state WHEN our accounts will be off banned mode or how long it takes for them to verify. It’s ridiculous. I wouldn’t recommend this app..Version: 9.1.340
✓ Needs to keep upAbsolutely love the concept and idea of creating a career type social media to connect and build your career. But the app itself has some seriously easy fix issues it needs to look at to make the user experience better, and encourage younger people to take it up. The notification preferences are hell, you have to individually click 20+ tabs to decide if you want in app, email or push notifications. There is no simple way to toggle this. And when you sign up, the amount of emails are ridiculous. Next is the amount of advertising which is expected, but in addition, within 2 weeks I’ve had two “bot like” messages from people looking to sell specifically to my company. It’s unfortunately leaning towards more like Facebook than something that stands on its own, which doesn’t encourage me to use it, it’s nothing new. If LinkedIn wants to continue its success, it needs to remember we already have 9-5 jobs. We don’t need a second one bothering us. It should feel different than that and we should want to use it, not feel like we have to..Version: 9.1.299
✓ Updates.........lots of updates, which seems to be the way of things of late. Why make something nice that works and just leave it alone when you can ‘update’ it. Since a recent ‘update’ I get a persistent notification badge, only to open the app and find it tells me I have no notifications. Later on the badge will be back and so on... There are also so many notification options. Surely I don’t needs all of them?? I’m switching some off but it’s little unclear as to the usefulness of some of them. This could be simplified..Version: 9.1.67
✓ Dissatisfied CustomerBe extremely careful when using the LinkedIn Ap from Apple. I agreed to LinkedIn's 30-day FREE Trial and then overlooked cancelling at the end of the FREE Trial period. My credit card was just charged $69 for Automatic Renewal for the next 30 day period. I attempted to cancel the 30-day subscription, as I found that it was not benficial to me, but Apple does not offer that option. They take your money and allow you to cancel, effective follwoing the current 30-day subscription. So, the FREE Trial cost me $69 and a great deal of hassle trying to get reimbursed..Version: 9.1.122
✓ Bad updateThe app keep signing me off after updating it..Version: 9.1.200
✓ LinkedIn Good, LinkedIn app infuriatingBig fan of LinkedIn however the app is maddening! I end up with around 15 notifications a day, as it sends me Bobs birthday, then Tina’s birthday, then Terrys service anniversary, then someone I’m connected to shared a story about something completely unrelated to anything in my profile, then Arthur’s birthday, then I get a notification to check my news feed despite their being nothing new. Daily see who you know notifications, someone viewed your profile (click through and it’s still shows the last person to look at your profile a week ago). Afraid I’m having to delete the app until it’s be rewritten to package things together neatly (everyone birthday together, all service anniversaries/promotions together etc), and sorts out notification to refresh sync..Version: 9.1.113
✓ The unsafe fact about LinkedInLinkedIn is not safe to use, I made an account on here for jobs- however when I didn’t find any jobs I deleted my account, my profile picture has been uploaded to google search without my permission. After I deleted my account, my profile picture is still on google. I never realised- like Twitter, Facebook pages and things like that- that LinkedIn is just as public, I really thought it had my safety things and setting surrounding the app. I shan’t be using this app again, it’s too public and unsafe to use. It’s now the waiting game for me- to see if my profile picture gets taken down from google, I really hope this app becomes more safe for people in future. Maybe in future, don’t put people’s personal details online- that they’ve used to set up their account. Anything can happen, like for example identity theft- I really hope that someone doesn’t save my photo online, and scam people pretending to be me because of you..Version: 9.1.178
✓ HorribleThe newest update has them limiting your preferences for your job search an forcibly showing you state wide jobs like that helps. If someone like myself has set up job preferences why take them away and why start showing jobs to them that are outside of their preferences like a job search isn't already hard enough and tiring enough. Now I'm every time I open the app instead of being able to scroll through the recommendations I have to create different searches because the jobs recommended to me are 8+ hours away and don't interest me in the slightest. Just because I live in a state doesn't mean I'm comfortable commuting far and doesn't mean I'm trying to relocate to the opposite side of it. So who's dumb idea was it to add that useless and annoying feature that shows jobs to people outside their now very limited preferences. I don't want to be shown state wide jobs and according to the customer service rep it's a feature I can't manually get rid of. Dumbest update to date..Version: 9.1.160
✓ 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..Version: 9.1.213
✓ Toxic platformThis is probably the most toxic platform in existence. It surpasses Facebook, TikTok and others. It's all smoke and mirrors, fake professionalism and corporate appearances. The app itself only shows what it wants to show, regardless if it's not meaningful or useful to you. All it does is chase engagement. The amount of "suggested" posts is disgusting. You can temporarily hide them but they never go away. And then when you come back it all those hidden posts come back again. It's worse than some insisting and annoying promoter incessantly handing you flyers on the street, and even after you said no, they keep invading your privacy and making you see things you never asked for. I only go there to explore for potential job opportunities given that unfortunately a lot of employers post there. But the search, filters and all the tools to search are simply useless. It's just a game to show you more and more to keep you inside the app going in circles and 'engaged'. Zero intention to provide real value. Zero intention to create a useful community. It's all pretentious and fakery and it's disgusting. Ban TikTok? - Ha... ban LinkedIn..Version: 9.1.370
✓ Could be betterCan you add internal secondment as an option for employment type? Also can you have more affordable payment options as some of us can only pay weekly or monthly and not a whole lump sum payment yearly? Thank you.Version: 9.1.324
✓ Skill limits, and skills in job posting.Recently the max skills was updated to 100, however still that limit is bit enough. Why you could ask? Because job postings and skills did not match!!! As an example if a job posting requires Business Intelligence and you have Business Intelligence (BI) for LinkedIn are 2 total different skills. If you have Business Intelligence skill that have endorsements that were given years ago and today completed training that indicates the skill is “Business Intelligence (BI)” there are no option to consolidate them. Also based on LinkedIn job posting that applied I saw one same skill wrote as “Technical Specifications”, “Tech Specifications”, “Technical Specs”, etc. and depend on what have in your skills will match or not with the job posting. So please improve the skills section to use a matrix of synonyms that match with match with the skill, and/or increase the skill limit..Version: 9.1.369
✓ Get more onLinkedIn feature that has been added recently is terrible and annoying. Covers up half the screen and never leaves permanently. Boo.Version: 9.1.179
✓ Page admin bugI am no longer able to edit my posts as page admin. Can you please fix!.Version: 9.1.234
✓ Great idea - poor executionI’ve been using LinkedIn for 5 years plus now and believe it to be a great platform for networking and sharing relevant informations and promotions related to you industry. However, accessing LinkedIn via anything but a desktop computer/laptop is so frustrating that it lets the platform down. This includes mobile web app versions, fluidity and responsiveness of the iPhone or iPad version and considering LinkedIn is built for business - company pages cannot be managed or updated via the app. This is shame because LinkedIn gets active posting when at conference but from my professional point of view - would avoid using it offside on trade shows!.Version: 9.1.51
✓ Won’t updateProblem is the app is stuck in a never ending update cycle. Meanwhile I can see messages but I cannot access them or browse anything witbou updating. Which when I try to do fails with some series of messages. It’s an IPhone recent ish model so cannot see why. So every time I want o use LinkedIn login on desktop which obviously limits how useful it is compared to my phone. Please rectify the update loop!.Version: 9.1.335
✓ Account RestrictedMy account was restricted this week for no reason. LinkedIn asks for a copy of either my passport or driving licence to verify identity! Absolutely no chance! I wasn’t asked for this when signing up so why now? There are no numbers or email addresses to contact for the uk. Customers services is non-existent! I’ve deleted the app now, no point having it anymore. I had built up 186 connections and gained work from them. LinkedIn do not send any information regarding why the account is restricted. And I’m definitely not sending in ID as they’ve been hacked before and that is the last thing that I want is someone stealing my ID! Can’t give 0 marks, unfortunately!.Version: 9.1.104
✓ Very frustrating appThis app is REALLY frustrating because whenever I open it, it constantly hassles me to add all my contacts and go through and add more people, and it's a multi step process to dismiss this. It's also deceptive in tricking you into sending requests to people who aren't even on LinkedIn, without making it clear that's what it's doing. As a developer myself, I really don't like this app. Please make it less annoying and then I'll give it a better rating. I don't recommend it to anyone that doesn't want to be frustrated by it attempting to be a Facebook copy. - Just updated this review, and even a year later it's still just as bad - And more than year later, it's still just as annoying with a multi step process if you haven't opened it in a little bit trying to force you to add more people and follow more. Honestly hate this app now. Very unprofessional. - I notice a developer reply - but what a token effort, if you're actually interested in taking on this feedback you would read what I've written above and make your app less like ad-ware and more user enjoyable..Version: 9.1.78
✓ Horrible InterfaceI swear this site has provided me with so much stress just trying to set it up. I didn’t dropped out of college and I left my job but they are both in my interests and I cannot change them. Whenever I open the app it tells me to finish updating my profile but I don’t have anymore information to add. There’s no way to say no. When I tried to leave things blank because they don’t apply to me I couldn’t. I got a notice that I had shown up in a search but when I opened the notification I was taken to a page within the app that did not work without a laptop. Why would this happen on the mobile app? It makes no sense. I’ve made all the connections I want to for now but every time I open the app I have to skip through the page to make connections with random people I don’t know. This app and the website are infuriating to attempt to use. I use all kinds of other social media that work at least decently. This platform is by far the most angering to use. Maybe the team is overworked or has no time to fix these issues, but they are too glaring and long lasting to still be around..Version: 9.1.136
✓ SubscriptionIt not what it is used to be need subscription for everything. Very expensive poor deleting my account.Version: 9.1.315
✓ LinkedInHey, When I first downloaded this app on my iPhone X(my current phone) it used to work fine and now this just freezes most of the time. Could please find out why this is happening?.Version: 9.1.82
✓ Merging accountsSo when I moved job a few years ago, I lost access (I thought) to my original account and so set up another. Now I have regained access to my old account I wish to merge the two accounts. Unfortunately, this has so far taken more than two weeks, with assistance from LinkedIn only to have access to my old account properly disabled (by LinkedIn) and without access to my old connections. Still hoping to get this resolved but...it shouldn’t be this difficult. I may change the 3* rating friending in whether this is resolved successfully!.Version: 9.1.150
✓ This app allows spam emails and scamsWATCH OUT After signing up to LinkedIn I started to receive 10-15 emails a day from spam companies many which would lead to dodgy websites. None could confirm where my email address was taken from nor did they care I opted out 2-3 times from their email services. Shortly after opting out EXCEL FINANCIALS started to call me regarding investments (scam) which leads me to believe that LinkedIn does not care about your privacy or who is operating their app. My suggestion is to have a FAKE email address to sign up. That way your BUSINESS EMAIL doesn’t get spammed continuously. I’ve had trouble understanding who were actual clients and fraudulent clients which made me lose clients..Version: 9.1.122
✓ Can politics be away from LinkedIn?LinkedIn should be professional! Okay?.Version: 9.1.257
✓ Crashes on photo upload from iOSEvery time i write a post with a photo uploaded from Photos from my iPhone 6s the app crashes and never posts. This has been going on for years and has never been fixed. Rubbish given I have to use the web version on a desktop- defeats the purpose of the post tool on mobile apps..Version: 9.1.69
✓ Floods your inboxLinkedIn will send you twenty million emails about every little thing that happens with your account. I just got an email telling me about how I’d just changed my profile picture. When you hit unsubscribe you get taken to a very user unfriendly page where you have to go in individually and unclick every single little button to stop them from sending you emails with every notification. Would be way better if they had a way of opting out of the useless emails easily.Version: 9.1.375
✓ Social Connect NOT for CAREER seekers or EMPLOYMENT hopefulsONLY use for a self propped social site to highlight career accomplishments, this is in NO way a site assisting with career, employment, job, or training for such in any way. I don’t believe anyone in it’s history actually found or obtained relevant employment by association with this site. The app is disgraceful with countless & continuous problems, the functions, features & customizations are only there to frustrate since no real functionality, majority if not all content from being contacted will be not or scam derived with no reportable solution for removal. If you have the time to waste, money to flush for the Pro version yet love advertisement inserts along with pro paying versions, lack of responsive support services & never getting much in return then you Will absolutely adore & promote this bug infested nightmare…there’s way better available if a serious job seeker, career hopeful & educated enough to avoid this mess individual or business looking for hires. Hope this fades from App Store listings & internet history quickly for everyone’s sake, the world could only improve for it doing so..Version: 9.1.307
✓ Changes to LinkedIn.I too am very disappointed with LinkedIn and the direction it has taken. This previously was a great site for people to communicate with other people and companies. Whether it was trying to get a job, improving their position, finding a new workplace due to moving to a new area or trying to move up to a better job, talking with others about how to improve their job skills so they can prepare for a better job or keeping in touch with friends they worked with in the past or, even better, finding old friends and learning how to stay in touch with them. It WAS a great site. Now, as the previous commenter said, LinkedIn is now just another Facebook or Twitter. It’s totally lost all the professionalism it started with. If anyone in power within the LinkedIn organization reads this comment, please, please, PLEASE change the format back to what the original people or person had as their vision. If you don’t, I can foresee this site going down the tubes. I, for one, will do my best to start a new site with only one goal... to make a website for companies and individuals to get together and help each other grow both as a company and as individuals who want to help a company grow and a company willing to help their dedicated individuals grow within the company. Also, have learning institutions small and large contribute to the individuals growth. Is anyone out there with me on this?.Version: 9.1.156
✓ ASKING FOR MY PASSPORTI’ve had a bad time with LinkedIn firstly I made an account that was made accidentally and decided to start again but the problem being was from it being unable to delete it and just said “I am not a robot has been done incorrectly” or something and just kept on doing it so in return I hibernated it after 24h of reactivating the account it ASKED FOR MY PASSPORT TO CONFIRM MY IDENTITY like excuse me but why are you asking for this in the first place when I didn’t give it to you in the creation of the account REALLY FOR ALL YOU KNOW USERS COULD BE MAKING FAKE IDS and to mention that who knows what they do with the passport within deletion because a passport or id is to be kept very safe and prohibited from others. thank you 🙂.Version: 9.1.343
✓ Ugh another updateI wish developers would embrace a “less is more” philosophy around updates, especially those that change the UX. LI fills its niche well as the dominant social media platform (no surprises there)… but I’m here to discuss a different issue. After being harassed to update the app every time I opened it for 2 weeks, I finally caved and downloaded the blasted update. To my displeasure, the scroll function has been altered to have an annoying “momentum” feature. Why was this necessary? Why, for that matter, are most UX changes necessary? I will now be using the app less and going back to desktop because I don’t like this new experience. This isn’t just an issue with LI — I’ve noticed many popular apps changing UX in a way that’s counterproductive and irritating. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Focus on stability and security… the things people don’t notice unless there’s a problem..Version: 9.1.341
✓ Please fix article scrollingI was reading an article published on LinkedIn and noticed that as I was pulling up a new paragraph the scrolling of the page ‘bounced’ up so that more than one line was showing at the bottom of the screen. I assume this feature has been A/B tested and shown to increase reading duration. This is presumably because I as the user will be more likely to read the paragraph if the text is on screen. However, the bouncing detracted from my experience and will discourage me from clicking on articles on the platform in the future. If you want to microengineer LinkedIn to keep people on the platform for longer, it will inevitably come at the expense of value gained per unit of time spent for the user. I imagine this is a big reason why people have stopped using Facebook (for example) because they eventually realise their time spent is not meaningful..Version: 9.1.271
✓ EhI honestly have never written a review before, but I left LinkedIn because of this when I was fond of building connections on LinkedIn. However, someone had to make me very uncomfortable. LinkedIn is for professional use. When posting, there should be a sensitivity filter so what ever comment or post is being shared on LinkedIn directly is not hurtful or disrespectful. I had a horrible experience with someone disrespecting my profession and the person said “in ms your considered a joke” on my post that involved my profession having an appreciation week. That is the total opposite of what LinkedIn in is used for. Update: it’s sad to see that my review was overlooked and not cared about. Bullying or any form of making someone uncomfortable especially on a professional job app should be taken seriously. You should be able to post about your profession without someone trying to undermine a position. What a shame. Adding on to my review: I hope LinkedIn is able to talk with him, and give him a warning. It’s sad because I did not want to leave LinkedIn, but because of this behavior that should not be tolerated I left and it was probably for the best. I just wanted to be recognized for all the hard work I do for my job and post it on my page and someone had to ruin it all. I know it’s not you LinkedIn, but I hope you can help me..Version: 9.1.248
✓ Disgusting BehaviourMy friend has been down and out. Unable to find work, quickly running out of money, he called me in tears asking for help. I told him to use LinkedIn, and assured him that with some perseverance he would quickly find a job. With my help and some online research he quickly built up his profile and followed the guidance of following industry peers and leaders as well as connecting with others in his field. I also urged him to trial LinkedIn Premium. I realised a few days ago his profile had vanished. Confused and frustrated for him I contacted support (which by the way requires some adept manoeuvring) and was told he needed to contact Safety team, which he did. What followed was a series of emails (because LinkedIn doesn’t have ANY phone support) spanning several days and perplexing responses from staff that left him deflated, feeling devalued and once more dejected. All the while, his profile is hidden from all the jobs he applied for and those contacts he tried to add. I’m livid on his behalf. What kind of people would do that to someone already downtrodden? I can honestly say this is THE most disgusting experience I’ve had in a few years by any one company. I’ve actually decided to delete my profile and have urged my colleagues to do the same. We won’t support a company who treats people this way..Version: 9.1.343
✓ Good app, frustrating notificationsOn the whole, this an excellent and well designed app. The notifications however are a nightmare, not only do you receive dozens of notifications per day, it is complicated to alter which notifications you don’t want to receive as push notifications - to the point where I have turned all notifications off and instead periodically check the app. An option to toggle off all notifications except connections an messages quickly would be really appreciated..Version: 9.1.283
✓ Photo issuesApp is fine apart from photo issues. It automatically puts a strange dark preset on all my photos. Makes them grainy and over saturated. Fix this and the rest is ok..Version: 9.1.171
✓ Generally a very useful app!I like LinkedIn and make regular use of it. The connections feature and messaging feature are very useful ways of maintaining contact with colleagues and partners. I'm dropping my review down to 3 stars at the moment as the app is constantly notifying me there's a connection request or notice. When I check there's either nothing or a "do I know" this person connection opportunity. I wouldn't mind but it keeps asking me about the same person!! I've clicked close, dismiss etc over 20 times already. Very annoying!.Version: 9.1.108
✓ Great app but one issueI don’t usually write reviews but I’ve had to in the hopes that someone from LinkedIn will see. However, if something has been like this for a while I doubt a change will occur. The way the app is set up is very good and easy to navigate. However, ever since I can remember, there has ALWAYS been a lag in the jobs search section. When you do a search, the further down the jobs you scroll it always seems to lag and eventually freeze. I’d expect better from LinkedIn. Seems to work fine when you go to a company page and look through the jobs section. Is the app trying to load 10,000 jobs at once whilst I’m scrolling? Im sure you guys can find a workaround..Version: 9.1.363
✓ Crashes a lot since the last updateLinkedIn Premium subscriber. Disappointed that simple posts and images cause the app to crash frequently since the last update..Version: 9.1.209
✓ Look at what data it accessesThe amount of data this app accesses is rediculous, it literally knows EVERYTHING about you, not downloading until this changes. Just sticking to the web browser edition.Version: 9.1.330
✓ Used to work - forced update took an hour and now constantly brings me back to App StoreJust a useless clog on my phone now. Well done.Version: 9.1.324
✓ Notification IssuesI’m a job seeker and I’ve been using LinkedIn to aid in my search. However, I’m afraid of missing a job opportunity as whenever I get a push notification I never hear any sound, unlike with my other apps. I always see a red number on my LinkedIn app widget showing me how many new notifications I have however I never hear any sound. All other sounds seem to be working which leads me to believe it’s an app issue rather than a phone issue or operator error somewhere. Please help! Thanks! Also, unless I’m just missing it, I would LOVE the ability to select a custom notification sound within the app so I can identify a LinkedIn notification from all others. Thank you! Be safe! Oh! One thing I did forget to add is that I LOVE the section called “My Next Job Should Offer Me” where we’re able to specify benefits we’re asking for as well as the schedule we need. Oh and the Name Pronunciation feature is fantastic!!! Thank you!!!.Version: 9.1.187
✓ Dark ModeI use my iPhone on dark mode full time. I’m glad to see that the app’s launch screen is now available in dark mode. But, why isn’t the rest of the app in dark mode? Fix this, and I’ll change my star rating to 5 starts!.Version: 9.1.237
✓ IPhone X issue or app issue?For the last month or 2 now I have missed out on opportunities and new business due to not being notified of any contact. When I first realised I double checked every possible setting in the app and in all setting options on my iPhone X handset - everything was on as usual. Put it down to the recent GDPR regs and thought nothing more of it. Weeks later I’m still not receiving a single notification, even though there has been plenty of activity on my account in the same period of time! Frustrated beyond belief at the prospect of losing any further opportunities - please advise what I should do to rectify - thank you.Version: 9.1.86
✓ Not possible to see ‘most recent’ at topI just don’t understand why the mobile app would only show ‘top results’ at the top, rather than ‘most recent’ posts. Does anyone have interest in repeatedly seeing what someone posted weeks ago, rather than what is current? The job search algorithm needs some work as well. It doesn’t distinguish between jobs in different academic disciplines very well, so it’s hard to find ones that are relevant. Better for professional discussion than other social media, though, as not (yet) overwhelmed with bots and trolls. Although moderation could still be better..Version: 9.1.253
✓ Feel abandonedMy LI app will no longer run, I'm forced to upgrade the app, but my iPhone doesn't support the new minimum de for the latest app. Sad LI made that decision to not support earlier sw versions :( and being in transition spending $1k on new phone isn't the smartest idea right now. Laptop only going forward :( Still abandoned- their support said delete app and reload, there was hope as when I was reloading it said that it would load the sw that was compatible with my phone and that some features may not work. Ha, who knew the feature that wouldn't work was the app itself... they have a screen that comes up stating "update for the latest sw" but you can't get out of that loop, my phone doesn't support latest iPhone sw so it can't get the latest LI download. A silly loop they could correct if they wanted, I guess they don't want to, they closed my case because I didn't respond back in the hour, like all I have to do is mess with this app, ugh. Now you know why I feel abandoned....Version: 9.1.106
✓ FreezeThis platform used to be great but from past few weeks I’m facing issue. Everytime I start scrolling after few seconds it stuck, screen freezes and I have to close it and open it again. My phone and app both are updated but idk why issue persist..Version: 9.1.306
✓ LinkedIn, not professional a fee grabbing platform.As a 30 year truly global travelling Investment Banker, I know and appreciate honesty and dedication. I have front on faced professional behaviours and teamwork. In my opinion LinkedIn is in the business of selling professional memberships deals only. With a platform closed to close scrutiny, they operate a zero tolerance to criticism. They support filthy favouritism for big fee payers. Undeserving awards abound to help support faked job advertising and personal self serving tweeters. A horrible platform that needs to be shut down and stop the serial scalping of honest job seekers. An abhorrent HR unskilled collection of liars. Faked job adverts, faked profiles and false claims. An HR exercise in time wasting. Easy Apply is s con, designed and promoted yo score new members..Version: 9.1.271
✓ App crashes when I want to read my messagesLinked In, actually is the best app among other social networking apps, because off its focus on professions and professionally. But after updating to last version in iOS platform, when I want to read my messages, app crashes that till now I couldn’t read my very important messages and unfortunately I don’t have any access to content of my messages in my email or etc.😡 I don’t know the reason of this huge volume of updates without any improving in speed, reliability and stability of the App..Version: 9.1.122
✓ Pay attention to the reviews here!LinkedIn is a decent professional sharing platform that I have been using for years. But it’s highly frustrating when the developers go around making all kinds of updates but ignore the the fundamental issues that users are asking them to fix! Just look at the reviews here - something definitely wrong when you have so many users complaining about the notifications! Too many and they keep re-appearing even after you have cleared them multiple times. Only solution seems to be to unfollow the contact - which defeats the whole purpose of being on LinkedIn!! Get your act together and fix this problem- pay attention to the users!.Version: 9.1.137
✓ Posts should be in chronological order!Great app but it doesn’t make sense that posts don’t appear on the feed according the date they were posted. I’m not sure what the algorithm is - it might be that the posts that are most popular appear higher up the feed - which makes sense for an app like Instagram but not for LinkedIn which most people primarily use for job searches. I often have a job post at the top of my main feed which was posted 3 weeks ago, whilst I have to scroll to actively search for the ones posted today. A job posted that long ago is useless for freelancers as it is usually filled within a couple of days. This makes it very difficult to find jobs as a freelancer on LinkedIn. Please update and change this! (Note - when I mention job posts, I mean text posts on the main feed where freelance jobs are usually mentioned. Not the ‘jobs’ section of the app where mainly permanent job applications are posted.).Version: 9.1.277
✓ Chronological feedIt’s annoying that you can’t sort your news feed chronologically in the app. I often find that I only get updates from significant contacts *weeks* after they were first posted. At that point there’s little point in responding as everyone’s moved on. I don’t really understand why this option isn’t available in the app when it is available in the web version. It really devalues the news feed..Version: 9.1.249
✓ Notifications are not showing up for 2 daysI have all notifications enabled, but looks like since the latest update they stopped showing up for some. That is annoying. Probably gonna change the rate from 1 stat after you fix the issue. Also I was trying to report a bug or connect customer support and either you don’t have that option at all, or it’s hidden somewhere so deep, so even most experienced scavenger won’t be able to find it.Version: 9.1.308
✓ 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. Thanks for reading..Version: 9.1.226
✓ Useless update.....So linked in Upgrade their system without any thought for existing users. It must be Linked ins responsibility to make any upgrade compatible with existing software. What makes it worse is that it works fine on my phone but not on my iPad. Both using same level software. As one of the original members I feel that your focus has moved from members interests to money making and you now need to get back to the original focus of bringing professionals together. You have lost this. Half the time I find adverts and promotions of stuff I do not need rather than the forums we used to have..Version: 9.1.267
✓ Cost now?I’ve had this app before at no cost, why do I have to pay to reinstall it?.Version: 9.1.161
✓ Don’t give us the suggested posts!LinkedIn is a professional network. We choose to connect with the persons and follow the organizational pages to see their posts. We understand LinkedIn needs to make money so there are promoted posts. BUT please stop feeding us the so called “suggested” posts. It’s not Facebook or tick tok. 10 out of 10, they are just bad suggestions after all. Does LinkedIn really thinks it can have users spend hours and hours scrolling those suggested meaningless posts like they are using tick tok? Stop it please. At least give us an option not to see suggested posts. Even Instagram gives that option..Version: 9.1.353
✓ Appalling moderation system - AvoidNo longer a LinkedIn customer after many many years. I recently ended a romantic relationship with someone who turned to this platform to repeatedly call me horrifying names; threaten me with ‘war’ among other things only for this platform to continue to allow him on the platform. This platform is not worth it especially if you value your sanity and your safety esp even more if you’re a domestic violence survivor like I am. Unacceptable! I am appalled at the audacity of LinkedIn and as a CEO and C-Suite executive (I hold two positions) I will ensure my peers know about this. These flimsy moderation policies that social media suddenly has to appease a certain demographic so they can get away with bloody murder, is going to be the death of many platforms including LinkedIn. Shame for LinkedIn we were in the process of launching a hiring blitz following a funding round but will be taking our business elsewhere. This made LinkedIn completely untrustworthy in my eyes no question about it..Version: 9.1.349
✓ Location update FailureDespite many updates, the location update section to improve profile strength has still a problem..Version: 9.1.182
✓ Scrolling through job search results… how are you making this so annoying?On mobile app scrolling through job search results is painful. Initial scrolling is ok. If you then try and continue scrolling your app doesn’t respond until a second or third attempt to continue scrolling through results. Super annoying..Version: 9.1.289
✓ App stopped working iOS 9.3.6When start app, get prompted to update to the latest version and you cannot get out of the prompt. Go to the App Store, and it just says open app which takes you back to where you were. Tried deleting and downloading from scratch and get the same result. Cannot find any help. App now unusable!.Version: 9.1.88
✓ Needs improvementI was just trying to apply to a job on LinkedIn. They said to contact the employer by email and provided the email. When I press and hold LinkedIn does not allow you to select text to copy and paste into your mail. The email is also not a link I can click on to email. I unfortunately have to manually type in the long email letter by letter going back and fourth. Please fix this. I was also recently searching for jobs and reading a number of job descriptions. Many were in my field but did not apply to me. I would like to be able to hide them so I don’t see them in the future. Don’t see a way to do this. I only see Apply and Save buttons; no hide. When viewing a clients portfolio web link and clicking on it nothing happens within LinkedIn. This link should open up in Safari; I can not copy/paste it into Safari either and have to go back and fourth typing letter by letter..Version: 9.1.226
✓ Needs chronological orderNews feed is not in chronological order,i see news that date back to 4 weeks ago all the time. Bad bad bad..Version: 9.1.48
✓ 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..Version: 9.1.281
✓ Missing featuresNot having an option to remove connection or unfollow while scrolling through the feed is annoying. People who keeps posting junk or irrelevant content that completely hiding the industry news, when I try to remove connection with such people I don’t have an option to remove or unfollow them right from the feed it forces me to go their profile page and remove connection. Also the improve feed is not effective, I don’t want my feed to filled only with the recruiters post how advertise as if like they are looking to buy / commodities. I want to use LinkedIn to stay connected with the industry in ways that let me easily grasp what is happening in the industry. Should have different section for recruiters feed!!.Version: 9.1.167
✓ App crashing when trying to open articleI keep trying to open this article on LinkedIn on Spotify’s LinkedIn about Black History Month and the app keeps on crashing. Seems a rather weird coincidence, isn’t it? All the other posts work just fine, but this one seems to make the app crash. All the annoying ads you keep shoving in my face work just fine, and this inportant article about Black Culture and resilience can’t be opened because this app ‘crashes’. You should be ashamed of yourselves. On top of that, there’s no tech support email address anywhere, so shockingly no one will be able to help this. Will uninstall. Can’t use an app that does not support Black Culture and Black History Month. And don’t ‘thank me for my feedback and ask me to contact you through the link’. I opened the link. That’s not tech support..Version: 9.1.206
✓ Account temporarily locked outLinkedIn is a great service and I used it a lot for a number of its great offerings. Unfortunately for the foreseeable my account has been locked out and I can no longer access my profile or even share my details with other (eg potential employers). For a service that is the only of its kind nearly all potential employers will look at the LinkedIn profile of its candidates. If they cannot find one then there is little chance of that person being successful in their job search. I understand that security is of great concern and I respect that you are taking it so seriously however this backlog of users who’s accounts have been temporarily seems to have hit the company hard. Is there a system for fast tracking the process? I expect some people’s future livelihood could depend on it..Version: 9.1.332
✓ 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..Version: 9.1.340
✓ Where has the ‘Search Appearances’ analysis on my profile gone?I’m a premium user of LinkedIn as I like the perks of having features that regular subscribers don’t. One of these features is the weekly update to ‘Search appearances’, which shows which companies the people who’ve seen me in a search result work for. I find this very interesting, but since the last app update it no longer appears in the ‘Analytics’ section on my profile. I think it’s pretty poor practice to take away a piece of premium functionality that I’m paying for, hence the reduced star rating. Please look into this and bring this functionality back, LinkedIn folks..Version: 9.1.275
✓ Trouble finding people to connect with!I love the concept of LinkedIn however as a young person very new to the job market I find it difficult to find people I actually know or have worked with, to connect with. What I think would be a good idea, would be to be able to connect Facebook or another social media with LinkedIn, as many of us have our work colleagues, people we went to school or University, added on Facebook and this would make it so much easier to make connections, especially when just starting out using the app!.Version: 9.1.75
✓ Stop it!I’ve gone back and made sure all notifications have been turned off, however this app just doesn’t give up. I don’t want to keep seeing the same contract list “do you know this person” pop up, and I am not interested in the same jobs (which I am most definitely not qualified for nor interested in). The constant red alert numbers over the app is frustrating. Although the concept of LinkedIn is great, At this point I might as well delete the app. Until a fix is made for the notification issues I won’t be back! * I have followed all articles provided to others with the same issues that you have replied to here in the comments, and those do not work for getting rid of the push notifications..Version: 9.1.59
✓ My linkedin Profile has disappeared without traceMy personal linkedin account which i have had for over 10 years, through different roles and sectors in which i had built a large network, has now completely disappeared. No records come up when i search and no log-in combinations or recovery solutions have helped. I had not used the account for 18 months+ as i was not in need of it at the time, but if i had been warned that the account was going to be deleted or removed i would have acted to stop that happening. I have tried to get in touch with linkedin, but apart from a telephone number in the U.S. there is other way to contact them directly about this. Absolutely livid.Version: 9.1.179
✓ Latest update not compatible with iPhone 6Is there a reason why you're not allowing your updates to be available to cover the iPhone 6? It keeps telling me to update your app but then says it's unable to do this and asks me if I want to update to an earlier version but then it just keeps on trying to update the App to the latest version which it can't do. Really dissatisfied with your customer service or lack there of. Your Developers have missed the mark here and I’ll never upgrade to Platinum at this rate..Version: 9.1.235
✓ Worst customer supportBasically instagram, every time I use my account it gets restricted literally 2 accounts have been lost because of this stupid and fun fact is that I haven’t even made any connections on one of it, didn’t post anything just made an account added my details and boom they need verification, did that and still there’s not revert for now over a week. Stupid clone of instagram! All fake job adds literally, girls posting pics like Instagram there’s hardly anything professional here! And oh god the awful customer service! Don’t download this guys if your looking for job use indeed or something else but not this!.Version: 9.1.322
✓ Lag, performance issue on IPhone 11Postings take very long to load, screen freeze.Version: 9.1.352
✓ Terrible for job huntingPromoted job posts flood any search you might do to find work. These range from Sandwich Artist at Subway to CEO of a multinational corporate. Apparently, my profile of skills “matches” water infrastructure engineering. Unsure how being a graphic designer will help, but glad to see that the algorithms won’t take my job yet if LinkedIn’s are anything to go by. The last review over 3 stars was given 5 YEARS AGO. Get it together, LinkedIn..Version: 9.1.328
✓ New App UpdateInstalled new update and app crashes. Cannot use App..Version: 9.1.317
✓ GET RID OF CLEAR VERIFICATION!!!Everything else about the LinkedIn app is great, but using CLEAR verification is a terrible move by LinkedIN. I got scammed into getting CLEAR at the airport once too and it was utter trash. Apparently, clear won’t verify me on LinkedIn because my phone plan isn’t in my name. I’m a student, so I’m under my family’s phone plan. As are many other students, as are many other cousins, wives, siblings, etc. What a scam!! Also, how is having the same name on a PHONE PLAN even verification of IDENTITY. Customer service tried to then tell me longevity - what a lie - I’ve been on the same phone plan for 15 years!! To maintain its reputation and continue to get new users, LinkedIn needs to discontinue the usage of CLEAR now! For new users like myself, it’s really frustrating that hold users were able to get verified no problem before CLEAR came in the picture. The only thing clear here is that LinkedIn should stop working with such a joke of a company..Version: 9.1.367
✓ SpamTo unsubscribe from their emails you first have to log in. Then you have to click through 15 settings and disable them one by one. I thought that was illegal..Version: 9.1.310
✓ Annoying experienceOverall experience with the LinkedIn app is annoying. Starting with 1. “Getting started on linked in” bar keep coming back when I scroll down. Takes too much of real estate and I can’t even see other things because of that annoying bar. 2. I have accepted the one request so many times but every time I open the app, it keep asking me to accept the same request. 3. Buttons and behaviour feels like app is just running on a Browser. It feels subpar compare to other social media apps. LinkedIn really needs to modernise the app..Version: 9.1.111
✓ Logout on all closeThe latest update logs you out every time you close the app in iOS. It sucks having to sign in every time I open the app. LinkedIn please fix this. This wasn’t happening before the latest update..Version: 9.1.200
✓ Great app - destroyed by updates! 😡I have an old iPad. It works. I am happy to be off the escalator of "Must have the newest tech". About five updates ago the update said it wasn't compatible with my iPad - but I could still use the old version. The next few updates arrived with a notification box that said "Update now" or "Later" so I could continue using the app. The latest update arrived with a single option "Update now" and I can no longer use the app. So, dear developers, goodbye!! I guess it behooves me not to be associated with an app that is so technologically inept and exclusive to new tech owners! 😥To add to my woes LinkedIn did contact me (good!) but didn't really listen (bad) and then closed my ticket without my agreement - they sent me a message "We are closing this ticket unless you click this link 😳 but when I clicked it I got "Sorry, this ticket is closed" (worse) and the app still won't update or work on my iPad!.Version: 9.1.106
✓ Linked in is malwareLinkedIn is copying the contents of your clipboard every keystroke. IOS 14 allows users to see each paste notification..Version: 9.1.183
✓ LinkedIn lies in wait for new card details; beware!If you think you have avoided the enormous charge after the trial period, think again. I entered new card details MONTHS after using the free LinkedIn trial and they quietly and craftily charged me the guts of a hundred dollars. I wasn’t successful in my job search earlier in the year and this will constitute a burdensome hardship for me. But do LinkedIn or Apple care? Of course they don’t. There is no option to reverse the payment because “technically” you “authorised” it. I guess nothing in life is for free (except the infrastructure and education of the workforce in every country that Apple operates, as it pays no taxes to any Government). Enjoy all your free stuff Apple. And enjoy my money. I would have used it to feed myself, but I guess you’re not well capitalised enough already..Version: 9.1.87
✓ 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..Version: 9.1.176
✓ Forces users to updateStop forcing users to update the app to keep using it. You aren’t a live service game, you’re a website. Imagine thinking all users can afford to download updates with their mobile data..Version: 9.1.238
✓ UnusableThe app is completely unusable in the evening due to the lack of dark mode. If you are using Linkedin then the chances are you work a day job and in front of screens for a large portion of your day. Why would you then torture yourself at night by exposing yourself to this draconian looking app. For a company worth 20bn+, I can’t understand why the developers are so far behind on the implementation of a feature that has become a staple for all mobile apps. I’m writing this review in dark mode. I read news in dark mode, I respond to texts in dark mode, I even have an app on my phone created by a solo dev and that has dark mode. While in thisrhythm of flicking through these apps, tell me WHY would i subject myself to the blinding torture of using the Linkedin app? Because I can’t find a reason It makes me think that Linkedin will be left behind in many other areas of technology in the coming years..Version: 9.1.232
✓ The app itself is garbageThe app itself is a rather impressive spire of garbage, from its notification settings maze to its secret privacy conditions, and the service forces you to connect to 30 people and write a bio and fill in your education every tab you flee to, all while piling in an endless stream of sewage from the web and through their pay gates, into your inbox, as all you can hear is “we’re selling you as a product, you, you dear user, we can make so much money by pushing these entirely irrelevant articles down your throat that it’s hilarious - and we’re still going to push for you to pay us in the form of a premium service run on the insecurity of eager-to-be-hired starting users!” While some people might enjoy this, I recommend they go back to Instagram, this is a site that was - somewhere along the lines - intended to get us jobs and expand our connections. To sum up, this application and the service it provides are comparable to that of a dysfunctional table leg. The minimal amount of effort put into development and cartoon-style silhouette left behind in place of the user consideration make it a laughable attempt at, well, anything. Welcome to LinkedIn - ew, what’s that on your feed?.Version: 9.1.133
✓ Show me your papers! Repeatedly suspended.I have used LinkedIn for the last time. There is so much effort in building a LinkedIn profile and like other texh giants," they" have the ability to suspend one's account. It may be automatic, it may be AI or it may be someone clicking buttons. It could have been me making a joke, asking, "What? No fact chexking?" to a post where someone said, "Wrong is wrong, even if everybody is doing it and right is right, even if nobody is doing it." Whatever the reason, they have shown me repeatedly that this is not a platform that I can trust or depend on when I need it. I resisted giving them my government issued ID to regain access to my account, the last time this happened and eventually, "I Loved Big Brother," like at the end of 1984. I sent them my ID and they still did not unlock my account. The promose was broken and was just a lie. They feel that they have power over us but it only works if we cooperate..Version: 9.1.322
