NGL: anonymous q&a Reviews

Love using this, my followers got me 💀 I post one almost everyday

All good fun! Really easy to use

NGL is so cool

omg yasss it’s so slay!!

I like NGL because it does its job without unnecessary bells or whistles. However, it seems you can only have one account connected, which is perfectly fine for the average user, but I use multiple accounts and it would be neat if I could rotate between them. Many of the people leaving negative reviews are complaining about the $10 "hint" feature. I agree; it's scammy and misleading, even as a joke. I think the feature should be removed entirely because it goes against NGL 's whole gimmick, which is its anonymity, and it feels like an invasion of privacy to break that anonymity. If you really want to know, you could always try to personally find out.

this is not okay, i have paranoia and anxiety, i downloaded this and shared it on my twitter page and all the questions (from my ACTUAL friends were fine.) and then i started getting some creepy ones, which i have now realized were coming with the message "sent with ❤️ from team this app" they were borderline threatening and i don't understand how developers thought this was a good idea, it caused me (and another friend) extreme distress because we were receiving messages like "yo stop leaving me on read", "not gonna judge but why...", and my personal worst "meaning of life?" and my friends worst was "i wish i could look like you" and they are very private about there personal life and only 2-3 people know what they look like irl and it truly scared them, please remove this feature it is unsafe and can cause horrible things.

NGL was working fine for me. The problem came when I saw that I could see who sent the texts. So I spent $10 to see who they are and it gives me a completely useless hint saying what phone they have (and sometimes how close they are to me). Now I thought that it was just a joke and that maybe it’d give me other hints, but they were all the same. I want to warn anybody using NGL: DO NOT SPEND $10!! IT WILL NOT TELL YOU WHO SENT THE MESSAGE!

P.S.
It was a nice little joke the developers made, but it’s really out of poor taste. I hope that y’all either bring the price down to $3-$4, or make it to where we can actually see who sent the messages. Making people pay just to get Rick-Rolled is highly irritating.

NGL does what it’s suppose to do which is good BUT when using it and if you come across a message you really wanna see who sent it you, you have to pay to see which I didn’t mind since it was cheap BUT it doesn’t ACTUALLY show you who sent it. All it literally does is show you what kind of phone it was sent from. For example, “this message was sent from a iphone 11”. It’s very misleading how they try and get you to pay for something that doesn’t do what’s it’s suppose to do especially if your paying for it. So at the end of the day your better off just not paying for it an stay away.😑

I received harassing messages and NGL advertises when you pay you can u lock the senders information such as user name, type of phone and location. I was just emailed today by a this app team member that they have no way of knowing who sent the messages and neither can I. They are scamming peoples money. I was told to “just delete NGL ” then at the end of the email I was told “please email us for further assistance”. You just told me to delete NGL and there’s nothing you can do about someone saying they have been watching me and know where I live and I’ll find out “soon” who they are. I would stay far away from NGL. I will be contacting my lawyer to see what can be done since this app team lied about helping its customers.

I am giving it one star because I made a purchase for 6.99 so that I’m able to access additional features on NGL and after the purchase was made, the features were not available for my usage. Getting in touch with someone to receive assistance is little to none existent. I get an automatic reply with a link that sends me to FAQs in which my concern was not even listed. I think NGL is fine to use when it’s free. I have not got the opportunity to experience a paid version. They need to fix it. I am highly irritated that I am now having to go through a refund process because of this. And I will know you longer utilized that app ever again.

I posted my link on my story and as usual, I got messages. When I open NGL , the messages doesn’t show. I delete NGL and get it again and there are the messages. Then it happens again. I don’t want to keep restarting my phone or deleting NGL just to see the messages. Is there a possible way you can fix this?

NGL within itself is good. It does what it’s supposed to; providing a way to fill time and get a good laughs out of the responses you get from followers. My main issue is this one weird bug that always seems to happen to me. Id post the link and only get 1-3 responses. Of course, mot every follower is going to participate and Im well aware of that. The issue im having is sometimes my friends tel me they sent one and show me proof but when I head onto NGL , I get nothing in my inbox

It’s an okay app. It does what it says it does. You ask questions and get anonymous answers. What I don’t like is it is $7 per week to “see” who messaged you. I say “see” cuz all it does is give you hints as to who the person is, “where they’re from” “what kind of phone they have” etc. so unless you know what type of phone and everything your friends have you really don’t get told who they are. If the developers are going to make you pay $7 a week they should at least tell us who they really are or make it $7 a month.

This is a cool app for what it is intended for. I honestly would of given it 5 stars if I could add multiple accounts like IG has.
I think if you guys do an update and make it where you can have up to at least 3 accounts that would be great! I don’t like odd numbers but 3 feels right.

As far as the hint feature, I agree with the previous reviews and think it should be taken off but you have to make money somehow and some people might pay to find out who it was.

Also when posted on ig we can’t seem to change the color or the background of the post to our stories like we can with original stories we create. I think trying to add that in there allowing even the slightest change in the color of the background so that way it doesn’t get to complex would be great.

So I downloaded NGL after seeing a lot of people using it on IG. I started to suspect they were bot generated questions and my suspicion turned into reality when I removed the link from my IG and I kept getting “anonymous messages.” It’s not an app that you can search for me and send messages, so where are they coming from?

Not just that, but I tried disconnecting my Instagram from NGL before deleting it and it doesn’t even give me the option to do so. I don’t feel comfortable having NGL continue to be connected to my IG. Can someone please tell me how to make sure my data is deleted?

Beautiful Souls can share how they deeply feel without being seen. It’s a start, soon enough with enough exPRESSion and learning more about our own authenticity we can say what we feel gets to be exPRESSed (pressed out) of us and be SEEN in so doing with ALL Love & Compassion. We deserve it HUmans! HEALERS let’s go!

If I could rate NGL ZERO STARS I would. First of all, NGL ’s responses don’t seem real. They seem made up to make it seem as if people are responding. NGL has limited features or prompts which continuously push you to try to purchase the Pro or Plus version. They push this in hopes of you seeing who respondedanonymously, but when you pay for the WEEKLY(yes they charge you 6.99-$10 every week) you don’t get those features. I’ve requested a refund and reported NGL to Apple and the proper outlets. Very misleading app that uses false advertising to get people to pay.

Fun app and all but… I copied the link to put on my Instagram story but I got busy before I could post my story and somehow I’ve already received 2 “anonymous” messages. Oh they’re anonymous alright. Just let NGL be what it is, having ready made messages from NGL itself takes away the whole point for me. It’s not a huge deal because it is just a random fun thing to do on ig, but to the developers, I don’t think this feature is necessary!

It's a great app to receive messages anonymously. And it's safe enough to where it's not a random link that'll send you elsewhere. I like that you don't need to download NGL to respond to someone. I like that there's no limit to how much can be written. I like that there's no ads! One thing I don't like is the auto generated responses from NGL . i know NGL sent those messages because I've seen the same question prompts on other people's stories.

There doesn’t seem to be much security. Like I literally just typed in my handle, didn’t have to sign in or anything, and I was able to post to my story and share. I tried posting to my story from the this app app again with another one of my accounts on default on IG and it let me post it to that story too. It just makes me feel like anyone can receive anonymous messages using my name and picture from any account and that’s kinda sus

NGL works fine and it’s a cool concept, but my problem is it says “see who sent it” so I click it and it makes me pay. Whatever that’s fine, but when you pay it just gives you an absolutely useless hint. It’s ridiculous and a bit scammy. If you read this don’t pay the 10 dollars to see who sent it Because it doesn’t actually tell you.

Also I’m pretty sure it fakes some responses.

NGL is great. Nice UI/UX. Rich look. Does the job.

I’ve heard complaints about the Pro subscribers. $10 per week is too high for what info they’re giving (only phone OS and city). But I’m not here to talk about that since I don’t have that subscription.

My only complaint is, STOP IT WITH THE SPAM. You guys give way too many notifications where you want me to share it on Instagram. I can only put it so many times.

Beyond a point, my followers are going to be annoyed.

So please, take it a notch down. Too many notifications asking me to open it and then share my question up on Instagram is a tad bit too annoying. It’s already on my bio, I don’t want to be adding it on my stories again and again.

Sometimes whenever I have questions or statements to open they duplicate whenever i post another this app question and it kind of gets annoying because i don’t want to just look at the same stuff, this needs to be improved where some questions don’t duplicate. Overall tho this is a fun app whenever i’m bored and want something to do :)

The intention to make this a fun app for friendly drama was definitely there. But the anonymity is definitely taken advantage of for people to send negative and inappropriate messages. What’s worse is having to pay to see who sent it, and then it only shows the model of the phone. If there was a way to sign in to NGL so that we can actually see who sent the message, then it would be better.

NGL is ridiculously unethical:
1. It claims the submissions are anonymous, but then allows you to pay a weekly fee to get “hints” on who sent each submission
2. It sends you bot-generated questions that don’t come from your followers. I got a question before a single person had seen my story, and then a second when only one friend had viewed and they were the most boring milquetoast questions, obviously just there to make you feel like more people are using it than they really are

I gave it two stars because the messages I got that were real were fun, but I found out after the fact that if it says “sent with ❤️ from the this app team” it’s a bot-generated message and they intentionally do not make this clear at all. It can be fun to use otherwise if you’re aware of that I guess, but it was disappointing to find out that some messages aren’t real. The last message I got was “spill some tea on your best friends” (which is kinda messed up to begin with) AFTER the link was no longer on my story, which is how I realized that many messages were fake. Not cool to scam people.

It's a fine app, but definitely is not at all robust. You can only have one account linked, which is alright for casual users, but like someone else pointed out, it's very annoying for those of us who have several Instagram accounts and would like to use this for them. There's also no way to log in and get your old responses if you delete or offload NGL . I had to offload NGL for a while, and when I re-downloaded it and tried to log in with my same account, all previous responses I had gotten were gone. There were some of those I would have liked to hold onto...

All in all it's a fine app, it just could use some work to bring it to more than just a cheap Instagram gimmick app.

I NEVER EVER have written a review. For any app. EVER.
And I feel compelled to write this.
Yes, NGL does work well for anonymous messages and can be pretty fun.
Except for well, this:
“my friend has had a crush on you for the longest time”
As someone who hasn’t had anyone who’s had a crush on them, I failed to notice the “sent with ❤️ from the this app team” at the bottom and proceeded to go on a witch-hunt to find who sent this. After everyone swore up and down that they did not, my friend found articles and reviews talking about the fake “anonymous” messages.
I do agree that this helps with interface and people responding so IF this has to be done (which I don’t think it should but whatever) please put harmless messages like “how’s your day” or “what’s your favorite color”. There’s a lot of interesting things that might be entertaining for friends/followers that are not directly stating that someone has a crush on you.
Please proceed with caution and make sure to read which messages are real and not.
Apparently, the messages weren’t always there and they got in trouble for that. I think that goes to show something about the developers to begin with.

To be honest it’s alright nothing special, my cousin had told me about this and I tried it out it’s just entertaining. I believe some of these messages aren’t really even being sent from people on your social media. I paid to see who had sent what messages, all it states is the location and phone they used (apple,android,google). Came out to be fake because it only showed me 1 out of multiple that I got, I cancelled right away. Then that’s when it clicked these messages are coming from NGL itself…

I have been using this as a way to connect with my followers on instagram and up till now it’s been great but there is a bit of a problem I’m a high schooler that dosent have the money for the pro version and I’ve been getting some creepy ones recently I just wish that I had a way to know who was sending these creepy messages without paying

NGL always glitches freezing it will tell you that you e a new message but the minute you go look it’s nothing there every since I had downloaded NGL it’s always seem to have problems I’ve reached out numerous of times for them to fix the issues and problems and it’s been well over almost going on 3 months and it’s still not fixed so since they don’t want to try and fix it and they’re not doing anything about it I’ll be deleting NGL I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve reached out to them this is sad

this app is such a amazing app I love it so much. It’s so much fun when you’re bored. I use it all the time. it sends you notifications. and it’s so easy to use. you will never forget it in the back of your phone. and it’s so easy to use on Instagram. all it really is is a link. and then you’re there download this app you won’t regret it

this app NGL is nostalgic but I bought the subscription to see who is sending me the messages, and when I bought the subscription, I click on one of the questions and is saying that I can’t see the message because it’s not available for love messages but if I pay seven dollars for the subscription to see who sent me the messages I’m supposed to see the messages I’m supposed to see who sent the message it don’t matter about. No love stuff like that is still supposed to be to where I could see who sent it because now it’s just a waste of my money, so that could’ve been said or notified before getting the subscription and I would’ve understood it but no matter if it’s a love message or not, I’m still supposed to see who sent the message!

NGL sends messages impersonating your friends. These messages are marked with a warning “sent with ❤️ from team this app”, but that warning is easily missed and can be easily misinterpreted. The warning was also only added after they received pushback for being deceitful. Before that change, they would still charge you to get hints on who sent the messages, even though they were fake.

Some of these fake messages make for good prompts, like “who do you miss” or such. But others are clearly pretending be to a real person. I’ve received fake messages telling me they miss me, wanting to hang out, asking me on a date, etc. I received a fake message complaining about being left on open, and even had one that said “my parents always talk about you in a good way”.

I understand giving out prompts to encourage people to open NGL , and thus create a new link, but those prompts should be innocuous questions. Ask “what’s your favorite color?”, “Who’s the best artist?”, “dogs or cats?” Not “im gonna ask you out”.

The person who developed NGL is a scam artist.

I have been using NGL for the better part of a month thinking that all the questions that i was getting were genuine. After the second week of using it i began to get repeat question spelled in the exact same way every SINGLE time. asking friends and people i have on my social media there were not as many people engaging with NGL link as you would assume. nevertheless i would still get questions as if someone was engaging. NGL used Chat GPT to formulate and send questions to users who don’t get a lot of engagement on the platform to make it seem like NGL is working properly. i HIGHLY do not recommend NGL to anyone!!!

I have been using NGL recently and have been seeing strange messages that non of the people I know that wrote it, oh and it makes u pay like what $7 just to see that it’s the this app app it self? I got a question a few minutes ago saying “my bf likes you wont stop talking ab you”
I just absolutely hate this feature it makes me uncomfortable thinking that maybe one of my friends sent it to me but yet I, wrong it’s the bots.
Please fix this problem and stop making the questions weird so u can stop making people feel uncomfortable, there are minors that use NGL for crying out loud like me.

I love NGL this app, it’s a good way to pass time and know why others think about me. But I have one big problem with it. I don’t know how to access the in - app settings and/or change my account. All I can do is share the link for my old account, which I’m not using anymore, and it makes me frustrated. I wished I could just change my account and view the in - app settings. Please help me.

Greet my name is patsy I came from the beautiful family of Samoa. What I like in NGL is fun and is good so I get to know others people’s that I don’t know well. What I like the most In here is that my friends are in Samoa or other school we talk up here in NGL so that why I like NGL. Samoan kids like NGL the most because it fun and good. NGL make kids and people happy and if your happy with NGL please don’t make it to much msg not good or nonsense 🤪

I was trying to post a reply to a message I got but NGL keeps telling me to update and there’s no button to tell it to update later- and so when I have to click “update now” there’s nothing on NGL Store (since it took me here by clicking that) to help me update it?? I’ve looked like 5 times but maybe I’m missing something-? And I can’t update it through NGL itself because I can’t back out of the update prompt to answer the question response, let alone update it in settings possibly as I can’t click anything than the update button- and it pops up as soon as I open NGL 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ any tips?

NGL is aight and pretty fun to engage with my followers. But the subscription is a WASTE of money. I wouldn’t recommend it at all. They don’t even show me who sends the message or give hints. NGL says it doesn’t support it? Like what bro? Like fix that or give me my money back cause that’s so dumb. Why have a subscription for something that isn’t gonna work? Might as well be a scam. Just don’t buy the subscription until they actually fix it or something. But all in all NGL is okay for anonymous messages and all that.

In all honesty, I tried downloading NGL to see if anyone had any hidden intentions for me, or if I can connect with some friends and anonymously, and for the first few days I thought it was going well cause I was getting responses but then I saw a review on here that said this app send messages with love, I ran through most of my messages and about 95% of them were from this app. I’m disgusted and Apo because I’m someone who doesn’t have very much friends and it’s hard for me to reach out due to my social anxiety, and NGL completely ruined it by giving me false pretenses that I thought people were reaching out to me instead, it made me feel more alone than ever that I was getting spoken to by robot. I’m gonna start researching if there’s a lawsuit for emotional damage because I genuinely do not feel OK anymore.

Absolutely awful that they don’t keep record of their users knowing the potential trouble this could cause. I’ve been getting harassed for 2 weeks now, to the point that I’ve changed my phone number, and someone anonymously messaged me and what they said correlates to the text messages I had been receiving. I paid the $7 to try to find out who it is (because this person follows me on Instagram) and all it showed me is that they have an iPhone 13. When I reported it to NGL and was able to email them, they apologized and told me to block the user. I don’t need to block them. I need to know who they are so I can finally go to the police about this! Seriously don’t waste your money if something happens that you need to know who’s messing with you.
