W | Bear : Photos & Videos App

The app needs a few updates however the good thing is that the creators respect user privacy by making it member-paying. NO ADS EVER. Good for me. Plenty to see if you’re polite and respectful.

Just another useless app that doesn’t appear to have a lot of users. They have a deluded price for paying customers and I’m guessing most of their reviews are fakes. Their rating certainly defies logic otherwise. I was annoyed immediately when I saw the choices for profiles. How can you include ridiculous “sports” like water polo and surfing, but NOT hockey?! I was going to contract “support” to complain about this omission and ran into another insane blockade. You don’t have to attach an email address to create a profile, but you can’t contact “support” without one. Okay, so where do I do that? I looked for several minutes under profile and settings and couldn’t find a place to do it. I’m deleting the app and hoping my uploaded pic is eventually deleted. I suppose it will get deleted when the app folds, which I’m guessing will be pretty quickly. They certainly can’t be making any money on it the way that it is. Tip to developer: You are trying to break into a well-saturated arena of social apps. Getting started has to be easy and intuitive and you have to give people a reason to WANT to come back.

Constantly force closes and glitches out.

Love the app it’s awesome, I’m meeting a lot of new people on it

I am running iOS 16.6.1 and all of a sudden the “back” button has disappeared. Whenever I look at someone’s profile private pics, I can’t go back. I literally have to reboot the app… When I go to update my profile, there’s no save button port back button, so I have to reboot the app and then go back and realize that the profile has not been updated. And why is it that when I block certain people from accessing my private packs they can still view them??

Decent app but for as much as it costs, updates more often than once a every major iOS release would be nice.

**BEARS BEWARE THIS APP IS COMPLETELY NON-FUNCTIONAL ON IOS 17** This app no longer works on iOS 17 which is no surprise considering the last update was over 3 years ago. I am currently only able to access the app and my account via a spare phone running an older iOS version. Be advised that if you update to iOS 17, it’s at your own risk of losing your account at this point, as there is no way to access outside of the app or really get to the dev. How they can still consciously accept payment for a product subscription is beyond me when they’ve basically left this app to die. The app is otherwise okay but obviously not designed for newer devices and in need of a massive refresh. Videos cause crashes, removing private access causes crashes, just old and unoptimized.

Just use instagram or regular dating apps. Lots of creeps. There was a guy doing weird stuff with his dog.😭🤮Mainly older men. I’m out!

Don’t expect updates or bug fixes. Zero effort is put into this app. Most people I know abandoned this buggy app a long time ago, so there aren’t really a lot of bears on here, I mostly see minimal/blank profiles from international chasers

The concept of the app is awesome and I love it. There’s really no other platform like it. It’s like instagram meets old tumblr. My issue is that updates haven’t been pushed out in 3+ years. I had someone repetitively requesting an unlock, even after I blocked them, I was still getting notifications that they were still requesting an unlock, a total of 20x. If you’re giving the option to block someone can it please actually block them ? There’s so many quality of life changes that can be made to the app for improvement, but again, it hasn’t been updated in 3 years. I guess I’m not sure why there hasn’t been any app development when they’re still collecting profit off of premium features
