Neptune - Be Yourself

Maybe I’m just optimistic, but I hope it gets better with time. It was easy enough to make an account. However, that’s where it stops. None of the videos will play aside from the very first one upon signing in. I closed the app and went back in. The video tried to play, skipped a couple of times, then completely stopped. I can’t even accurately judge any of the programming because none of the content will play. Hope it gets fixed so I can give a better rating later.

From a poor launch to poor management, it’s no surprise that Neptune isn’t hitting even 10k users. The remaining staff (who didn’t leave TWO WEEKS after launch) are rude, wannabe tech bros who have no idea how to take criticism and use it to better their craft. They can’t even maintain their other social media pages to keep people hyped and engaged, so take that into consideration when trying to join this (very buggy) social media app. If you want to watch reposts of subpar lip sync TikToks with a bad filter over them or other content you’d usually just scroll past, then hey this is the place for you. But there is no community, there is no engagement. Yet they’ll beg you to PAY promote posts to push them to a barely looked at feed.

The app itself is excellent but it’s not without its flaws that being said it’s still an excellent app. It’s been through some bumps and it’s had to do some reworks however, I love the fact that the feed is nice and smooth and granted more features are coming, but I want to remind the public that this app is still being developed and still being tested so you’re gonna see things you may not be used to but no app ever starts out great right out the gate. What I love the most about the app that it puts its community first, and it listens to its audience for lack of better terminology. Granted it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of TikTok but then again it’s not trying to be TikTok. It’s gonna be Neptune. What has been released to the public is what is polished by the team and the beta testers. What I would like to see is when we go to our personal profile, we should be able to scroll through all of our videos without having to back out and slide into the next video, I’m sure that’s in the works. I’ve been a beta tester for this app since they launched the Beta I was one of the first 500 to be able to test it and I’ve seen it grow immensely There are some features that a lot of people are still waiting for obviously live but live is something that isn’t cheap to develop and this project is self funded so I honestly believe that we need to give the developers a break and not be so harsh and critical. I’m still a beta tester and I’m running the app on iOS 26 on an iPad eighth GEN and it’s running pretty smooth so keep up the good work and I’m looking forward to seeing what else will be released in the future. To the public trust me when I say Neptune‘s just getting started, let them cook. You ain’t seen nothing yet and it’s only gonna get better..
