GBI'm a 60 year old grandmother and I've… I'm a 60 year old grandmother and I've been a Pinterest user for quite a few years now. However I recently deleted the app from my phone due to the number of emails I've received regarding pin removal due to them being "against community guidelines" While I appreciate that Pinterest needs to police it's content to some degree I'm also aware that algorithms are not known for either intelligence or understanding nuance....but then neither are quite a few people. I'm also deeply concerned that you allow children of 13 to use your app. There is so much information available to show how highly addictive the kind of algorithms pushed by Pinterest are. I don't consider you can have any kind of "moral" high ground when you allow 13 year olds to access your product. Even if you remove every pin that might mildly offend anyone the very nature of what you offer is corrupted even if it's just an endless steam of puppies and kittens. P.S : if you consider a picture of a man wearing make up with no top on against your rules but allow thousands of male models in their pants the problem is definitely yours.

GBThe absolute worst platform imaginable The absolute worst platform imaginable. I've LITERALLY been emailing back and forth with 'customer service' (what a joke to even call it that) for 3 months trying to get them to help me upload a product catalog. If it weren't so unbelievably infuriating, it would make a great SNL skit. It should not be allowed that a platform of this size make it so incredibly complicated to navigate as a business owner trying to understand and take advantage of their offerings, and then have ZERO live customer service support. I will not be using this platform any longer. Which is really unfortunate, because I was really hoping it would be a beneficial one for me.

GBfundamental UX feature missing: board search when pinning to be fair, I mostly do like the UX of the Pinterest app on Android. it's well designed and has some innovative features I wish some other apps adopted. why am I upset? in the past few years users have been requesting a search function in the boards when pinning something. I don't understand how something as simple as that isn't attended for by their UX team. it's such a key feature of the Pinterest experience—pinning things on boards. but they make it very hard by not allowing users to search through their boards to quickly find the destination of a new pin. this is a feature I use on end on the PC version (which by the may still does not support dark mode 😂).

GBPinterest is not what it used to be Pinterest is not what it used to be. Now, using this app is a mine field of invasive pop-up ads that cover the page you are trying to read and don’t go away, even when tapping the “x” several times. When viewing my saved pins for recipes, it does this making it nearly impossible to follow the recipe as I am cooking. Sick of it and moving to a different app.

GBRan by boring people Used to use Pinterest back in 2010. Haven't used properly in years. For some reason last couple of months of 2024 I keep getting emails about pins being removed for violating terms. Album covers and such. Must be ran by some right straight laced boring folk now as none of them have been offensive in anyway, but conveniently the appeal link on the email never works. Chuff right off you boring people.
