Real examples of app review UX complaints grouped into patterns to help you understand where friction is killing retention and driving uninstalls.
"I literally cannot find the settings page anymore after the last update — they moved everything and there's no back button where it used to be. Had to Google how to cancel my subscription on my own app."
"The bottom nav disappears when you scroll down and doesn't come back unless you scroll all the way up. Makes no sense on a long feed. Drives me insane every single time."
"Downloaded it, made an account, then it just threw me into a blank dashboard with no explanation. I had no idea what to do first so I just closed it and came back two days later and honestly still don't get it."
"The setup wizard skips like half the steps if you log in with Google. I never connected my calendar and didn't even realize that was a feature until someone mentioned it in a review."
"Every time I try to enter my address the autocomplete kicks in and overwrites what I typed with the wrong street. I've had two orders go to the wrong place because of this."
"The date picker on the booking screen is unusable on iPhone 14 — the confirm button is cut off below the keyboard and you can't tap it. Have to dismiss the keyboard first which took me forever to figure out."
"The home feed takes like 8 seconds to load every morning. My wifi is fine, my other apps are instant. Something is clearly wrong on your end and it's been like this since the November update."
"Switching between the Messages and Projects tabs has a full second lag with a blank white screen. It makes the whole thing feel broken even when it technically works."
"It asked me for location, notifications, contacts, AND camera access all within the first 30 seconds before I'd even done anything. I denied all of them and now half the app doesn't work but it never explained why it needed any of that."
"I turned off marketing notifications but I still get them. Then when I went back to check my settings the toggle was back to on. Pretty sure it's resetting every time I update the app."
