You pretty much can't do anything. Connected to my 1.5GB wifi, it tells me connection errors. Disconnecting from wifi makes those errors come faster. I watched like 6 videos, and half of them weren't in the language I picked. Can't upload a video due to the connection errors. Then I see on here they reply to everyone with this kind of review, blaming the person for not having a good enough signal. This isn't the next tiktok.
Reviews for Clapper: Video, Live, Chat
← Back to Clapper: Video, Live, ChatNot a useable app. Can't sign in, can't use it. I don't know how anyone can, I have fiber, and a new phone. I can't create an account, search for videos, see videos. Huge waste of time. Look, EVEN IF my network was trash, and my phone was trash…it still runs other similar apps JUST FINE. I've reinstalled several times and cleared data. So, I'm just not having this app ever. This is the 20s, I'm not emailing someone to get an app.
Not to sure about what's going on. I have one human follower, the rest are clearly bots. The bot "followers" have no content on their profiles, and all they do is click like on your videos. Most videos are of people talking about stuff, I hear enough talking, I want to be entertained at the end of the day. Also, many videos lag, and it looks almost dubbed :/ Seriously, Im not here for likes or listening to more talking, I'm here for fun. All and all, it's a decent app if you prefer this genre.
Has immediate access to live and videos, but the lives do not show up on the fyp. Not easy gaining exposure so you have to do more. It may be good for some but frustrating for others. May try it again in the future. Its good for people looking to make friends and connect if you're a social butterfly; is what the verified folks keep making videos on there for new users.
Clapper is close to it's competitor tiktok. But the app lacks a lot of key elements such as a search bar for sounds, filters, video editing, and uploading videos either buffer or stays at 40% and says video can't be uploaded. With how bad the duet feature is they might as well take it down. Also the app doesn't have an adjustment for sounds so you can't change when the sound starts and stops. If this app wants to be a competitor and gain more people, these key elements need to be addressed.
I like it so far...it's similar to tik tok...so, the switch was simple. I only wish they had a music selection to go with my posts. As of now, I'm only posting my old tik toks. But, I'd like the ability to create as I used to with the other app. The editing was key...plus, the music created an "ambiance" for the posts. Thank you...love it so far though. 😁
I like the app for the most part, but 2 issues I have is I think they need more of the same category selections like tiktok has and I think they should add filters and templates etc. Its been a few years since I've joined and nothing has been improved. Also, when I upload my own video with my own logo on it, I get a warning about how I can post it to my page, but not the fyp because of their stupid AI that detected some stupid watermark. So f'in what...it's my watermark for my video! Petty
This app has potential to be a TikTok replacement, but there are issues that need to be fixed. For example, even if I down vote, I still keep seeing content I voted not to see. Sometimes, the videos loop and I will keep seeing the same content on repeat. The first few videos I uploaded had gotten a few hundered views, and the last two had one or two views. So, the algorithm doesn't seem that good. Lastly, you can only add 5 hashtags and no location. Needs imrovement for sure, but has potential.
Overall is good and it has much potential if more features are added. One essential feature that is missing and it really annoys me is the inability to select a cover for the video. When you upload the app will select for cover the first second of the first frame and it usually look weird or miss the point of what that video is about. I suggest to add the cover feature including the ability to add a picture as the cover as in Reels.
New to clapper. So far I notice you get a lot more views and it seems to have more abilities for small businesses to sell their products, which is awesome. I also love the groupchat feature. It works to truly make it feel like a community. The downside is the editing and quality is VERY limited so you have to do it outside the app. The for you feed is...meh (lot of politics I don't agree with show up) but I hope it gets better with time.
I personally enjoy Clapper due to the fact that that it's similar to other apps but you have more freedom here! It's easy to learn how to navigate through the app when first starting out. Clapper has alot of great options to choose from. I enjoy that Clapper allows great content, great options for content creators, and so much more freedom and not being penalized for so many things like other apps penalize you for! Thank you Clapper for being so great, allowing me to connect with ppl I relate to
There's potential to be a good competitor to the likes of TikTok and Instagram. Few things, though: the notifications are kind of terrible, there is no search option for sounds, and the overall aesthetic of the app is not pretty (yes that's a big deal). Add more stitch and duet options, and the ability to search for sounds. "Filters" and effects will also be welcomed. I know it's supposed to be creator focused. Videos do not upload. Just get the spinning ring.
1/19/25 updated rating. I've actually dropped it down to a 1 star. I'm trying to enjoy it but it's very hard to do. The video quality is not good, my algorithm is not algorithming, TONS of stolen content being shared, no filters to find videos, unable to share videos with others, etc. I don't understand how a social media app that's been around since 2020 has not made needed improvements to keep up with other media platforms. Fingers crossed improvements come sooner than later.
Came over like many others, a tiktok refuge. I have great wifi, yet I can't load a single video. In the 24 hours I've had this, I've seen 3 vids. Thats it. It crashes, the vids I do get to see are glitchy. I would really like to use this app, but so far, it's impossible. It doesn't even load on my cell wifi. I have nothing. All other apps load immediately. **edit** just got the notification that they are limiting access...
Have tried for about a week to get this app to work. Will never let you sign up for an account or load anything, just keeps sending notifications but can't ever open them because the app won't let you sign up, every time I get to the birthdate screen, it says there's an error and won't go any further. I've tried signing up using Google, Facebook and phone number, all 3 same issues. Have reinstalled numerous times with phone restarts between. Totally unusable. Uninstalled and moving on. Bye 👋
Terrible algorithm. The more you click "not interested" the more they force the exact same content into your feed. Not worth the download. Likes and follows mean nothing because they force you to view what they want you to view. Even if a "wide variety" of content is available, it forces the same set of videos you've already clicked "not interested" on half a dozen times already
there are things I like about the app; that it's 18+ the lack of censorship, the ability to grow. but the platform needs SO MUCH IMPROVEMENT. editing tools are non-existent, so I recorded with my phone and upload my edited versions. however, the footage uploaded looks entirely different than what I actually filmed. colors are muted, & the video turns out grainy. don't even get me started on the music selection. there's not a single recognizable song available.
Edit: Sounds like a lot of hassle. It would just be easier to delete it and look for something better. Next time make a fully functional app. Just downloaded and tried using ph. number to sign up for an account. Then I entered verification code at sent through text. This is as far as it will let me go because after that it just kept trying to tell me to sign in and I haven't even made a password yet. What's the point in having this app if you can't even sign up for an account?
App won't allow me to create a profile, "opps, something went wrong" error code. Can't create a profile using either of the tree options. What's the point in downloading! Response to Clapper media group 6/27/24, I've deleted and reinstalled your application multiple times in the past and again today. Still nothing happens, my phone is up to date and everything is working fine; with the exception of your app.
There appears to be a bug where views don't always get counted for, example; I'll get a few likes on a video, but the view count stays the same, which makes no sense. Also, it sometimes crashes when I edit videos, but I can easily edit them before uploading to the app, even though that might be an issue for other users that aren't as technologically inclined. There's potential here. You can not create more than 1 account at this time. 1/7/25
