Description
Been using Kickstarter for a couple months now. It’s basically a crowdfunding platform where you can back all kinds of creative projects – stuff like art, design, tech, games, and more. Pretty solid app if you’re into that kind of thing.
Here’s what you do: you can browse through tons of projects, read about what they’re trying to create, and then pledge money to help make it happen. And there’s also a way to save your favorite projects and get reminders before they end. And the creators can use the app to post updates and stay in touch with their backers, which is cool.
Look, if you’re into supporting cool new ideas and getting exclusive rewards, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the app can be a bit buggy sometimes – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take on Kickstarter. I've tested a bunch of crowdfunding apps and this one's pretty solid. The selection of projects is great, you can easily back the ones you're interested in, and it's cool to get those exclusive rewards. But I do find the app can be a little glitchy at times, and the whole process of backing projects and waiting for them to be completed isn't for everyone. If you're patient and love discovering new creative stuff, though, I'd definitely recommend giving Kickstarter a shot.
Pros & Cons

- Easy to save favorites and get reminders
- Creators can post updates right in the app
Cons

I've enjoyed Kickstarter for a long time, but the app is only so-so. Push notifications have never worked, uninstall-reinstall included. It's never felt straightforward to see the status of the...
