About this app

Backers on Kickstarter are passionate, creative visionaries that find joy and connection in funding new ideas and bringing them to life. Discover projects in categories like art, design, film, games, hardware, and music, then pledge to your favorites right from the app. Make the world a more creative and innovative place while receiving awesome (and often exclusive) rewards.

Creators can use the app to keep up with their own projects on the go, as well as stay in touch with their backers.

With the Kickstarter app, you can:

• Join like-minded backers to help make new ideas a reality.
• Stay connected with updates from projects you’ve backed.
• Save your favorites and get reminders before projects end.

Project creators can stay up to date from anywhere:

• Easily track your funding progress.
• Keep up with comments and pledges.
• Post updates and respond to backer messages.

For the past few weeks, the app has been buggy to the point of almost being unusable. I always get a red "Something Went Wrong" error when I try to change rewards or manage my pledge. I have cleared my cache, uninstalled/reinstalled, and still nothing. The site seems to be okay but it's just annoying to not be able to use the app.

Used to work great. They keep doing unnecessary updates that break things. You used to be able to fix a failed payment method in the app. But now it doesn't give you an option to change the payment method, just to retry the card that failed/doesnt work. Now I have to fix such pledges on the desktop site. This worked in app before they changed it! They also changed how your pledges appear on your profile. They were arranged chronologically, but now they constantly change. Hard to find anything!

Basically whatever someone dreams up, has a chance to present that product, or idea to the public. Enough backers and it becomes a reality. A chance to get great deals on unique, well made, useful items of all kinds. They take some time to arrive. However, of the items I've backed so far, each has been well worth the journey! Recommend checking it out!

While I love Kickstarter and use it a lot, I find the app to be quite unusable. I constantly keep getting notifications that my app is offline, even when it isn't and this notification repeats over and over, preventing me from doing even the most basic thing such as sending messages. On many occasions, the rewards won't load. I am not sure why the app such a substandard performance.

Since the update, I have been running into a number of problems. In one instance, it kept adding a "bonus pledge" onto my pledge. The app is much easier to use than going online, but these glitches mean that you have to go online anyway. Plus, the app needs to be able to sort successful pledges into those that have and those that have not been fulfilled.

It looks like a nice interface, but the app is unreliable, often failing to sync and stalling. It offers no substantive advantage over using the website. Instead of just getting email updates that prompt to visit the website, I get the email, and an app alert as well. Tapping on app alerts frequently loads the app, which either stalls, or opens my web browser, which re-opens the app, which re-opens the browser, where I can finally read whatever the message was.
