I am a long Kickstarter baker I have back 62 projects on the last 5 backings 4 have been scams, product that don't work, or never gets to me and all I hear is that Kickstarter is not responsible, there are no filters on who creates a projct and that is a credibility I issue
Great app and I like that you can manage your pledges and if you received your item but I feel like it is quite hidden. It would be great if you could have that toggle button on the profile tab next to each project. This would make it a lot easier to see what you are still waiting on and things that have arrived.
This used to be great app that you could expect to get your reward for backing a company trying to create something great - it had turned into an app to help fledging companies play games and delay delay delay getting you what they promised - I suggest you save your money and a lot of frustration. And wait until they become a real company you can order a real product from - Kickstarter has made themselves a place for companies to act badly and treat people poorly! Hope they fix this platform to protect the backers!
The idea behind Kickstarter is great, and many new and innovative ideas have been realized because of it, but they have a major flaw in their ethics that has caused me to delete this app and I recommend everyone be very careful who they fund for a project. Kickstarter will do NOTHING for its users if a funded project fails to deliver its product whether by circumstance or intention. So you were charged $80 for a product and haven’t received it? Too bad. The other 1100 people who were charged haven’t received their product either? To bad. There is no recourse. There is no way to get your money back from this scam. Beware
This app mostly encourages you to look for and back projects. Aside from providing updates it doesn't let you manage already backed projects.
I tried logging in to support a project for the first time, I’ve had an account for years but never really did anything with it. I am CONSTANTLY getting emails to support garbage that doesn’t interest me until today, an artist I follow and enjoy their work is having a kickstarter. So I go to log in and just nothing. I put in all my information click log in and..... nothing happens. When I think it’s my password I go to password reset, nothing. Literally the app doesn’t do anything. This is wack. Probably going to delete the app and just leave it alone again for a few years again.
Logging in is a pain in the a**. It won't even let me reset the password. Doesn't have sign in with iCloud either.
When product designers don’t deliver in a product, they keep the money and Kickstarter claims they are not responsible or culpable. Beware!!!
