The ad-apocalypse hits

this app was a great site for just scrolling around but its gotten to the point where it adds it the unskipiable 10-15 second ads, really. No other social media does this. The video links cant be reposted in discord like you were able to do before, making it harder and harder to even share the memes that are not some sort of porn or propaganda to begin with. I used to enjoy iFunny but the devs are just making that harder and harder to do.

edit: almost forgot, along with the unskipable ads, there are memes that are just flat out replaced by it, ads on the bottom of the screen in a little bar the entire time, and ads shoved in-between each couple comments in every single meme. I haven't been here as long as most of the people (only around 4 years this up coming December) but that is long enough to know that iFunny once wasn't a giant billboard for stupid mobile games like every other phone app now days. I never really minded the small ads on the bottom of the screen or the ones that you would occasionally get in between each meme (I have even gotten to read some good web comics because of the ads every-once in a while. The ads in the comments seemed pretty bad but then this new unskipable crap is just unacceptable for an app like this. It's really sad to watch my favorite app become such a trashy piece of crap so fast because of a thing like the ad-pocalypse. Why do the devs have to do this to us, I just don't understand.

2,680 Days

I’ve been using this for the past 7 and a half years and I really think this is the update that’s gonna break me. I’ve sat through update after update of “improvements” that have slowly alienated your user base further and further from you, you add actual improvements like saving videos only to remove the feature a month down the line. While I understand you are a company that needs to make money, the level of advertisements on iFunny has become absolutely ridiculous, you can’t scroll more than 3 memes at a time without coming across one and now there are ads in the comments separating every 2-3 comments. While all of these are quite annoying changes, they really are nothing more than minor inconveniences everyone loves to get upset about, but what’s more than a slight nuisance is your most recent entire overhaul of ui. It might not seem like a big change but moving the apps style of scroll to be the same as that of the browser website is the dumbest and most jarring change I’ve seen come to iFunny at least since the introduction of in app videos. 7 and a half years of mindlessly scrolling to the left and now I’m supposed to throw away 2680 days of muscle memory in favor of a “seamless timeline” that does nothing but take up more of the overall screen than needed and ruin my meme going experience.

Change does not always mean good

2,100 days, almost six years I have looked at iFunny almost every day for a little under six years. I wouldn’t still be here if I didn’t like it. I love this app. I have seen the bad and the worse parts of iFunny, and I love it and it’s dysfunctional community. I’ve seen the trends and most of the updates. But an update does not mean an improvement. After 2,100 days I am finally starting to look at iFunny less and less all because the most recent update. Advertisements in the comments. The “feature” does not seem like that big of a deal at first glance, however the sheer amount of ads makes scrolling through comments a jarring experience. It completely halts the mindless scrolling that iFunny is essentially based on. It creates this space where now no matter where you go, once a post becomes popular enough, you see advertisements. There is no longer a break between the ads. There is only a constant ever-unyielding advertising experience. Nobody is enjoying the new experience. People are angry, people are leaving. And frankly I don’t want to see iFunny hurt over this. But with the new update this app no longer offers anything that you can’t get on a different meme based app. Now this app only offers the same memes that everybody else does, with thrice the ads everybody else does.

This is getting ridiculous

I have been using this app for years and years now ever since I first discovered it as a kid but the amount of ads are getting really ridiculous and people are angry and you’re going to start ruining your app. It was on thing to have them in between features that’s fine, in the comment section it started to get a bit much, the content section is harder and harder to navigate cause of all the ads buts that’s not why I’m here. I shouldn’t be hearing ads playing over videos, now you could say that’s how it was recorded and weasel your way out of it but the first two times it played it didn’t have it, the third time an audio ad just Kept repeating itself, I went in the comments, still played. Tried watching a video in the comments, still played in the background over the sound of the video I was trying to watch. That is absurd and never should’ve been a concept especially with no way to stop it other than completely closing iFunny and having to come back to whatever you were watching now gone cause the feed reset itself. You’re going to start losing a lot of followers if you keep putting an inordinate amount of ads in. Soon it won’t be “this app” it will be “iadvertise.”

Just stop.

I have had this app since the beginning, and up until recently their updates have been largely positive. I tolerated the ads understanding full well that bills need to be paid, etc. The new vertical scrolling is where I draw the line. There isn’t a single positive that I can say about the newest format. With the new format, I am viewing up to 3 memes/ads at a time, not fully sure where to stop my scroll lest the next video in line start playing. AND IF I manage to stop scrolling at the appropriate interval, I’m now distracted with the previous and upcoming features in the same frame with no way to single out the meme I’m looking at or zoom in should I need to. Not to mention the fact that if I accidentally touch the top of my screen, the entire session starts back at the top as if I’m on Facebook, etc. The old way was perfect. Double tap to like (now it’s a triple tap because the first tap simply pauses the video which I never asked for), scroll up for comments (now I scroll up and end up 10 memes down), scroll left from comments to see the next meme (does nothing now), etc. It’s bad, and literally has no benefits. No one likes this. Change it back or at least give us an option, because honestly this is ridiculous.

iFunny has always been bad, but it’s gotten worse in other ways

It’s normally been a place for the vile, which is why it came off the AppStore in the first place for a while. But it came back, and there were certain rules put in place, so the horrible horrible stuff wasn’t there anymore. It was fine.
Now they push out dumb updates, mechanically ruining iFunny . With trying to copy Reddit to now completely changing the scroll system. The recent scroll system conflicts with how you got to the comments (swipe down for comments, swipe sideways for the next post) so it’s dumb for normal longtime users. People also post really long posts, so you have to scroll down and down and down for the next feature, very frustrating if you want to just skip a post.

There’s also how stale featured has become, it used to be basically handpicked funny stuff, now it seems automated, picking everything and anything.
Mods are abusive, you don’t like them you’re gone, which is fascinating. Posting a comment making fun of a certain mod who had relations with an underage boy, you get banned from commenting until you delete it. The point of iFunny is to be funny, and it’s known to be a bit edgy, but you can’t mock a pedo? Odd. It’s just become so bad.

Ifunny is great buttt

Ive used this app for years but after a while you relies your just on there to avoid life or even just social media your on there subconsciously just hoping for something to make you breath through your nose a little because nothing else can but after a while your just liking posts from 6,7 years ago from a guy who got off a long time ago or has been on for over 5000 days I know meme community’s look down on this app because it’s about as basic as just finding funny pictures can be but that’s what I love about the simplistic idea of it. Reddit is kinda complicated to a normie like me, tags groups with tags can’t find anything or people I actually relate to but everyone and I mean everyone on this app relates to the facts that we have nothing better to do than swipe and feel nothing and we all appreciate and look down on eachother which might sound bad till you realize it’s negative reinforcement like f that guy gonna do 10x better kinda like fat shaming it works but is harsh weird you read all this if you did

Big Issues

Before criticizing, I want to preface by saying that I enjoy iFunny , and it’s one of the best for keeping up with trending memes. With that out of the way, for awhile now (months), the absurd number of features have been difficult to keep up with. I may be cynical, but I think the reasoning is that the more time people spend on iFunny , the more advertisements they’ll see, and generate more revenue for the devs. The other issue is the nasty undercurrent of alt-right users. This has been prevalent since the 2016 election, and I feel the main reason for why many people have left iFunny since then.

2021 update: the ads have supposedly gotten worse, however some users like me have Lockdown or Blokada to block this nonsense. Without it, many users report their phone battery drains and overheats from the amount of ad trackers. On top of that, features are being pumped out by algorithms at an even faster rate, which is impossible to keep up with and causes the community to be spread thin. Many like myself demand this to be less, preferably when it was around only a few sets of 20 a day. If no changes are made soon, your userbase is going to decline fast.

Ruined studio

I’ve been using this app for an entire decade now and this overhaul of the studio has been hands down the single worst update in iFunny’s history. What exactly were you thinking with this one?

You removed the iconic gif caption font that gave them an identity and replaced it with bland and tasteless Arial, you removed the ability to make impact font memes which had just been making a recent post-ironic resurgence, image caption posts now compress images into the shadow realm where any text is barely legible if at all, and worst of all, you completely did away with the entire comic maker that has been a staple of this app since its inception and was the genesis of both textposts and a myriad of timeless memes. Do you guys even have a reason for all this? Or is it because you just got bored and had to make some terrible changes no one asked for again to spice things up?

Stop regularly making iFunny worse for no reason. Stop trying to add features no one wanted or asked for like a map or leveling system. Restore the old studio. Instead of trying to fix what isn’t broken, maybe just focus on keeping iFunny running the way everyone likes it instead.

Best stay clear updated.

I’ve been using this app for over a decade to casually pass time. I’ve been there since the Will Ferrel days. iFunny went from using recycled internet memes from other sites to for some reason being community of mainly Alt right edge lords. I don’t even look at comments anymore let alone participate because everyone wants to be correct and cynical rather being reasonable. I’ve also noticed that all the original creators who posted good and funny memes are either gone or banned.

iFunny itself is an unstable mess. I’ve iFunny on least 5 different phones in the last decade, and it still randomly crashes, sometimes it’s unresponsive trying to swipe, if I look at a profile it is stuck in a loop were it doesn’t open. There are games I play on this phone and my phone doesn’t get anywhere near as hot as it does when I browse through this app for a few minutes. How does my phone overheat just from looking at a few memes?

After all the racist and political features and community being very toxic with anyone who doesn’t fully agree with them I ended up uninstalling iFunny . There is just so much negativity one can take.

The yearly ruining of the app is happening again

As they do every year, the devs have filled iFunny with so many ads it’s completely unusable. A full picture ad every 3 comments and another ad every 6-7 posts. Literally can’t even use iFunny till they fix it. They do this every year and each year it gets worse, then they lose all their users, then they panic and put it back to normal. Wish they’d just leave it good.

Previous review:They fixed the ads issue. I get an ad every 15ish posts. Much much better. iFunny only requests location every now and then instead of every couple of memes Original review: The ads are getting out of control. You have to wait ten seconds every time you open iFunny (which you will have to do often because the comments stop working after a couple minutes) because an unskipable ad plays. Then once in iFunny every 10 or so images is another ad, and now instead of one ad you get groups of ads unless you let iFunny track your location and browsing history. You have to hand over horrifying amounts on information to get even basic functionality.


By


Been around for a long time

I’ve been on this app for almost 8 years. Seen it all. The good the bad. Whatever. My biggest issue with iFunny is the moderation/censorship and the ads or whatever they’ve got disguised as ads.
Moderation is horrible. It’s all run by some automated algorithm/bot that barely works. Completely normal content with no TOS violation will be shadow banned or flat out deleted while other heinous things stay up for months. And the “Featured” posts section is constantly at odds with the moderation. Featured posts are supposed to be picked by staff, but so many of them end up deleted by the mod bot. Features themselves are worthless and inconsistent now because that process feels automated, and now features are over saturated.
And let’s talk about the Ads/Trackers. iFunny will make a brand new, top of the line phone overheat and drain battery within 15 minutes of use. I and many other users have started using apps that filter ads and tracker requests and iFunny will easily send over 2,000 requests a day to your phone. This is ridiculous and makes iFunny unusable to anyone just starting out.

Also tazandra is a pedo

IFunny it’s at it all time low

this app never been great but it was a source to find something occasionally funny through the filth but now, It’s almost unbearable going through it. Now that this app wants to compete with other apps like tik tok, they want to optimize endless scrolling through iFunny with no end so they can milk the users for all they’re worth. The features are a shadow of what it used to be, they where good amount of picked pictures and videos that were shown to every user everyday and you can always count to find something funny, but now that at all time theres 999 features ready for you to see, it’s just a unfiltered mess of garbage, nothing funny. It’s all just boring politics of idiot users, porn, just horrible stuff you expect to see from Facebook Instagram and tik tok. this app was different that why we used it, we were tired of main stream media so we went to this app to find gems that you couldn’t see anywhere else. this app was never great but it became a dumb that we liked to be in, now it’s boring and liked everthing else, something I don’t want to be part of no more

Genuine Hellscape

No better hornets nest to throw rocks at, if you’re looking for a social media platform for that weird quiet kid in your 3rd period that only spouts edgy conservative one liners and hates women this is it. And on the back half of that coin you’ve also got insufferable agenda pushing goobers that fill the comment sections and collective with whatever their current high horse necessitates. You’ll see slurs, human death, posts meant to offend every single group of people on the planet and you’ll see bait so good that thousands fall for it and bite the hook with an unmatched ferocity. And eventually if you linger long enough you’ll learn to revel in it. Come to look to it for alternative takes and a better perspective on the overall picture and underneath all that it’s still a great app to host and look at funny memes. A timeless classic. Apes locked in a confined space just throwing feces at the wall and each other.

Best you could (probably) get

I’ve used this app for a while now and whilst it’s better than other meme apps, it’s not perfect. Collective just doesn’t want to work properly anymore. I’ve used the feedback feature to let the devs know about this issue multiple times, yet it’s been at least 5-6 months now and the issue still isn’t resolved. The main issue I have with this app is that with a combination of ads and devs using it for bitcoin mining, it loves to overheat my phone and kill the battery. I’ve used an ad blocker for about a year and a half and it ran fine, but with this most recent update, they found a way to bypass the Adblock. Though, I still love iFunny . There’s plenty of tags to explore so you can find the content you want, the features are pretty entertaining yet slightly repetitive due to being featured multiple times. Overall, iFunny has its flaws, some of which are due to devs being incredibly greedy (and lazy) but it’s still a great app nonetheless.

Good app, poor function.

I have been on iFunny for a very long time, a few thousand days with an account and without. The advertisement increases recently are not exactly pleasant, especially the comments ones. They ruin iFunny immersion.
I enjoy the features and collective, but there is and issue.
Collective is supposed to be many thousands of memes that could be features eventually.
The frequency of the features needs to be reduced, maybe not the old 40 to 60 a day. But something near 100 memes, these help set the daily culture and general culture of iFunny . Please help me relate to others over a common set of features, what I mean is that people are no longer seeing the same memes at relatively the same time.
I do not have time to look through multiple hundreds of memes each day. If I have extra time or need more memes there is collective to look through.

Crashed my phone HARD

I’ve used this app for 3+ years on a daily basis. Then finally last night, I tried loading it up before bed to scroll through some memes while waiting for my wife. It opened, but just had the logo stuck in the middle of my screen. I hit the home button, but it wouldn’t close iFunny . So I hit the power button to put my phone to “sleep,” and my screen went black (as is normal) but then when I tried to get back into my phone a moment later, the screen stayed black. I couldn’t “wake” it. I had my wife call my phone, and the ringtone went off, but still nothing popped up on my screen. I had to hard reset it, and I even had to try multiple ways of doing that before one try finally worked. Immediately deleted this app off my phone after that. I’d rate it 1 star, but I had to give it 3 stars just for the years of entertainment it provided. Be careful though, it apparently can turn your phone into a brick.

They don’t card about their app, it’s only a money producer

They haven’t had a properly functioning app in many, many months. Their feature and subscription system is broken, it doesn’t refresh at all. If you go to your subs you’ll see the same posts, in the same order over and over. They don’t refresh. This has happened for months now. Rumor is they use iFunny as a data miner. I believe it. It runs slow, it won’t load pictures, won’t load profiles, but ads will send you straight to the store if you accedently click one! Don’t worry, their money making tools function just fine!

iFunny is almost exclusively a data mining operation. iFunny is almost inoperable without a VPN due to the vast amount of data constantly being taken from your phone. If you use a VPN, iFunny tells you it’s a “security risk” and that iFunny won’t work with it. This is the exact opposite of the truth. iFunny only functions with a VPN and they are lying when they say it’s a security threat to use one. It’s a security threat to not use one, and the main threat is this app.

App is harmful to your phone

iFunny used to be a lot of fun, but the ads have ruined it. I don’t just mean the quantity of ads, which is ridiculous enough as it is. The ads actively harm your phone, like a virus.

It used to be, you could scroll through memes all day with no issues. Now you get about two minutes worth, then your phone starts getting unreasonably hot, your battery will start to drain faster than normal, and you phone will become sluggish and slow. You’ll quickly get to a point where it becomes hard to scroll, and you have to fight just to close iFunny out. It’ll take about two seconds after iFunny is closed before your phone will start to function normally again.

The Lockdown app used to block ads from appearing, making this app useable again, but recent updates have stopped that, and iFunny has become a virus once again. And given that there are ads on the memes, ads in the comments, and 1 - 2 ads in between memes, you can’t escape their viral effect. Best to just avoid iFunny all together, and protect your phone.

Spicy

Been using iFunny since 2014 and a bunch has changed since. It has the best funny memes, you’ll even get to see them early before they hit Facebook and racists jokes. The community doesn’t care what race you are as you get treated equally with hate. Everyone has come to an agreement of hating the LGBT+. But despite all that you can make friends with like minded people in the comments, find people with similar interest in hobbies, games or even living in the same area you are (im in your walls btw.) if you hate free speech and want censorship because we don’t agree with your ideology then iFunny isn’t for you, for years devs kept it free of speech but censor and ban violence such gore or anything involving death (go to Reddit for that type of stuff) this isn’t twitter for you to “cancel” someone because it won’t happen here, an being anonymous is a plus!

Awesome app! But question…

I love iFunny with every part of my heart, even the dark parts! I like going into collective and seeing what the community has to offer, and what may be featured next. In previous versions, I would go through collective and see the same posts by the same people over and over and over, and when I looked at their account, either this app would crash, or it would only be one version of that post. I think it’s amazing how you changed that. I also love how you reach out to the community, by doing your own posts, like the name change ( I think we all know which one won ).

Now, I bet you saw this review and were thinking “ Oh, a question? And what would that be? “. Well, here it is. Like I said before, I love how you interact with the community. I was wondering if I could help out with that by working for/with the this app team. Even if there’s no pay ( I already have a perfect paying job as is ). Even if I’m just the janitor of this app and I’m just cleaning it up, I feel like it would be an interesting experience. But also to be working with thousands and millions of people. Once again, even if it’s about the quality of working as a school janitor, I’d be willing to do it. If you need some sort of a resume, you can contact me in the this app chat(I_am_Carrot), or by email. I’d be willing to do anything for this, even with no pay. I don’t expect a response anytime soon, as that’s how getting my job went, so I’ll be waiting patiently.

Best app ever

Lots of people underrated iFunny by giving it 1 star because they say it has sexist, racist, and other ones that offend them, I never see what they are talking about because everything is mostly just like some type of funny situation, yes I have a repost account where the author of the memes still get credit, I just go on there for a good laugh which never disappoints, I have made many irl friends sharing a laugh at some of these, without them I wouldn’t be a very cheerful person like I always am. Some things do offend people but it’s their choice to take it to heart instead of ignoring it, it is the internet not a safe haven, as for weaboo/furry/fandom/Bronie accounts, I honestly think they should not post stuff on I funny because people come on iFunny, and go into collective to see funny stuff not the stuff listed above, if these people want to give I funny a 1 star they need to think, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all, there are plenty of apps such as band and club apps and irl conventions for people that are weaboo/furry/fandom/bronies. With that said the developers do a great job on iFunny despite all the 1 star reviews, they diserve recognition for their efforts to make iFunny possible and free, very few know how hard it is, great job developers keep it up🙌 iFunny also helped me through tough times and helped me stay sane until I was able to finally graduate highschool and relax🎓🙌😁

Community and moderating staff

I’ve had this app through 4 generations of phones. I remember the days before accounts, when every post you made would belong to the community. Since then, this app has grown to a community centered around many communities, where you will find all sorts of personality. People striving to be featured as much as possible, creatives building their own niche communities, and just random posters of various success who are simply happy posting what they and their subscriber base find enjoyable. It seems every update (that isn’t a bug fix) brings with it a new way for each and every individual to express themselves in new ways; most recently and most notably, the chat function comes to mind, where previously widespread communities find a home to chat and share behind the spotlight of the public forum.

Recently, while they’re discredited by many creators, the mod team has shown me just how diligent they are in their problem solving initiative. Reports are responded to around the clock and with speed and accuracy. They care about their community, and clearly do their best to protect their content creators. For these reasons, I recommend you add iFunny to your list of media platforms. Whether you’re looking for a laugh, to keep up on the latest news, or want to feel the freshness of aspiring creators and community builders, this place is for you.

To all the people who got their feelings hurt...

I saw a lot of comments about how people are hurtful and I’m almost 100% sure that there left by white moms in their 40s or people who can’t deal with some backlash on a post. It’s the internet, people are mean, get over it. The only bad thing about this app is that people post stuff that doesn’t relate to what iFunny is meant for, comedy. but if you stay in featured and in the right tags you can usually avoid all the stuff that is garbage. But it just gets kind of annoying either having to wait for more features, see the same kind of memes, or try to brave the horrors of “collective”, which there’s a 75% chance you’ll find something foul and nsfw. If I’m being totally honest, I think that any accounts that don’t primarily post stuff that is related to comedy should be penalized, because it really takes away from the fun when you see a lot of things in the for mentioned “collective” that aren’t funny and are gross, nsfw, lude, etc. It’s just that this platform is made for comedic purposes, and there are plenty of other platforms that could and would let these people post what they want without ruining other users experience or getting as much hate for there post (which is usually deserved). But other then that, I recommend this app.

Love and Recommendations

I absolutely love iFunny and I have enjoyed it for years. I love using the explore feature to find certain content and follower my friends as well. iFunny is the best app I think for finding hilarious videos and images.

I do have a few annoying issues with it as well however (but not your faults more of things that could be a apart of iFunny but aren’t) the main feature I would like this app to add to iFunny is the ability to scroll through my liked page easier. I don’t know about other users but I have tons (can’t empathize that enough) of liked content and it is very hard to find old things I have liked, bc I have so meany. So I’ve been building on this idea of some type of organizer in the liked part of this app. I thought maybe something to do with having a drop down menu sorting by all the tags of each liked image or video. Of course there would be some pictures/videos with no tags on them but those can be categorized together as well. I think this still make it hard to find some liked content seeing how not all tags match the content but i still think it would really help.

Sorry for the long review really hope you read it and find a way to make it easier to search for content on the liked section. Stay funny👍🏿

My go-too app

I’ve had iFunny for 5 years and 2 months. I am 23 now and when I wake up and this app is usually my wake-up app before I shower and has been since I first installed it. I also use it before I fall asleep if I’m not too tired. The ‘features’ they pick out for us at given times are questionable on how funny they can be but everyone has different tastes in comedic content so I just like it anyways and move to the next picture or gif or whatever it may be. So yes, I am the laid bad reviewer because iFunny is a privilege and I am thankful to the people who developed this and still are keeping it fresh. Speaking of development, they have brought this from a pile of crap from having it removed from the store to listening to the users and implementing everything we need to waste our down time.
Now I can look at stuff that peak all my interest and even learn new things.
People on the internet are going to be people on the internet so if you’ve used the web for at least a year you’ll know what to expect and have fun with these crazy people if you keep a moderate mindset while using this app. You might even meet some of these crazy people and have lots of fun with them. So, don’t take iFunny too seriously and you’ll love it.

Horrible community, Great layout

On this app, you can come across many things. Generally speaking, you will most likely find offensive material made to trigger certain groups of people just for a laugh. At times, it seems the entire community hates certain groups of people just based on what they like. iFunny says 17+, but if you go into collective and scroll through 50 posts, you will most likely find some close to nsfw posts. The layout of this app is amazing, and easy to access for anyone. You can find stuff you want through the tags, and look through.. very old.. outdated memes.. through the shuffle menu. The featured section is generally not considered funny by the main community, but it’s a decent show of good posts that will never break the rules (mostly). Certain things bug me such as the fact that the amount of “smiles” one has only counts to posts you directly made, completely ruining the number of smiles you have if you’re a republish account. There is also the fact that many lewd accounts exist and get thousands of subscribers and top comments despite being exactly what the this app rules go against.. At this point, it’d be easier to list iFunny as 18+ and just allow porn already. Overall, it’s not a great app.. If you want to see funny memes, go to twitter, or even facebook.. This is a toxic app that I do not recommend, and this is coming from a person with over 500 days logged into iFunny .

Its going downhill

I’ve had iFunny for a long time. To be exact, I’ve had iFunny for 2,191 days (the number of days spent on this app). It was all fun and comedic stuff way back, it was very enjoyable. Slowly and carefully iFunny has been degrading. People getting offended, memes getting taken down, people starting to just upload random crap that doesn’t and shouldn’t belong on this app. It’s quite literally become a snowflake subreddit, but in its own app. Now they’re acting colored usernames, stupid senseless updates, and more. I’ve been following this app with the Test Flight app and honestly the only good update that I thought they would keep was a button to save both video and image memes. It was great but I guess they didn’t want it. A lot of the old great this app accounts got shadow banned and now its a bunch of people uploading anime crap, animal videos, video game montages/compilations, and more. It’s no longer this app. Its iUploadWhateverIWant and that’s that. To be fully honest, I’m going to stick with this app as long as I can stand but it’ll get to me one day and I’m going to uninstall iFunny and recommend everyone to either never install iFunny or uninstall it. I’m not giving iFunny a 1 star review because I believe it has potential. If the developers and the owners actually cared for iFunny , they wouldn’t let it flop. Hopefully in the future things will change but I won’t put my faith in it much longer.

(:

As a member of iFunny for about 2,100 days, I can honestly say I regret not reviewing earlier. This was one of the first apps I downloaded to my first ever iPhone, before memes were even called memes! I’ve always loved iFunny, it brings me and now my boyfriend laughs with most of the feature sets. Some aren’t fabulous but I love the new first feature Friday’s and small boi Saturday’s being as I’d love my first feature! I mean seriously I’ve given you guys 2,100 days of my life lol I don’t care so much about that though as I hope to see action actually taken against accounts that post inappropriate/gross things. You can report them all you want and the post will get removed but the accounts need to be. As well as the people telling everyone to “kill themselves” or other hateful speech. It doesn’t affect me as I could not care less what people on the internet think of me but others don’t have an ego as big as mine. In this last update you said you would be more active on this and I’ve seen no change, just a bunch of talk no walk. Also your app keeps automatically rating your features 1 star and I feel bad because I usually would give more

Avoid if you're a decent person

I've been using this app for over 6.5 years now, and I've typically enjoyed the content and iFunny itself. However, over the past year or two, the community within it has become so ignorant and hateful that iFunny is too infuriating and disheartening to use. There have always been some of these individuals, but now they have become a very sizeable, toxic community, and so vocal that you can't avoid it. EVERY TIME a feature portrays someone that isn't a normal white male, the comments are flooded with stereotypical and hateful garbage. Every. Single. Time. Not only that, their herd mentality makes it impossible to make any criticism or remark that either calls out such hatred, or isn't in alignment with far right ideology. A majority of the time, any comments that are totally appropriate, but raise centrist or leftist points in a totally civil manner, are reported as "highly inappropriate." Clearly these users are abusing the report function to avoid EVEN HAVING TO READ anything they don't agree with, much less try responding with any attempt at dignity and open mindedness. If this doesn't paint a clear picture of the now dominant culture of iFunny , well, use it for a few minutes and find out for yourself.

It's not easy to leave behind an app that has been a part of my daily routine for years, that has been my absolute go to in times of boredom. But being around such company makes using iFunny more of a burden than a pleasure.

Racist and sexist featured posts

This place is kind of a breeding ground for racists and sexists. The comments can be deeply offensive and I believe this app promotes this culture by featuring racist and sexist posts. Sure there is some funny stuff in between, but iFunny was clearly made by men for men.... I don’t feel very welcome just by seeing the posts that are made.

And let me tell you I frequent reddit and video game forums, this app is BAD. Very low moderation, at least for sexism, racism, transphobia, etc. I also had iFunny when it first came out and I used to love it. It’s the features like, a girl with Arabic writing labeling her ISIS, fat/ugly shaming women, and otherwise objectifying women that makes me uncomfortable scrolling iFunny sometimes. The good content is good on iFunny but the bad content is, well, really bad.........

I want to add (in response to some developer comments I see on other reviews) that I report everything I see that is what I outlined above, i never have any way of knowing if anything was done about my reports so they don’t feel like they do anything. I just feel that based on their regular features, and just the community they’ve created, iFunny is no longer for me. If you don’t like racism, sexism, bigotry, etc, I’d just recommend staying off iFunny. Theres plenty of other places to get memes with communities only half as bad. This place might be some of the worst of the worst :/

Used to be good

this app was such a funny app that I looked forward to going on every chance I got. Feature sets would come out 7 times a day, with about 10 features each, and almost all of them were funny videos and memes I could laugh at and share with my friends. That’s not even half of it, because I also got into creating my own memes and the comment section was always hilarious, including funny responses to the post. Fast forward 2 years later and as much as it pains me to say it since I used to love it, this app became a terrible app. Nowadays the feature sets have 60 memes each, which might sound awesome but there isn’t enough funny content that can be posted this quickly, and about 90% of these memes are either reposts, cringey comics, or posts that flat out aren’t funny or aren’t even memes. Occasionally I’ll scroll to a meme that has me on the floor laughing but everything else is just so bad. Not only that, but the comment section and collective are completely filled with bots asking for desperate teens to buy their premium Snapchat to look at their nudes. A lot of the community have become toxic and rude as well, and you could probably count me in that group because of how dissatisfied I am right now. I know this sounds biased and like an exaggeration, but iFunny has deteriorated from an amazing meme app to a bot, porn, and furry infested trash can. Until this app fixes their app, it’s gonna be a hard 1/5 from me.

Not for the faint of heart.

I love iFunny, the community, and the conversations I’ve had on it. I’ve met friends, made enemies, and have been able to share things I find both comedic and deadly serious. The community is a lot smaller now, so you tend to remember names and people.

Keep in mind though, this is not an app for children. It is not for the easily offended. this app is a community that encompasses a variety of radicals, on all ends of the political and moral spectrum. I’ve spoken with anti-semites, diehard communists, and even individuals who support terrorism. But for every one character like that, I’ve met a dozen more that I’ve genuinely enjoyed. Marines serving overseas, single parents, people just looking to spread awareness of the issues that they face every day.

this app is more than just a meme app. It’s a platform for politics, debate, discourse and discussion. People share everything from wholesome photos of their dogs, to borderline pornography. If you can stomach both the best and worst people have to offer, you’ll appreciate what this app is. If you can’t stomach that kind of thing though, I urge you to move on. At the end of the day though, this app is about comedy, light and dark alike.

Prepare for toxicity and mediocrity

While iFunny is a great way to tap into the infinite, and at times chaotic, flow of memes, it comes at a price. The community is absolutely toxic, as one would expect for the internet, but to a degree that is borderline unbearable. You would be strained to find a single post that doesn’t have people flaming each other in the comments, and this is ignoring the typical “ironic bigotry” that is so common on the internet today. This isn’t the fault of the developers it’s just what happens when you have a community centered on meme culture. What is the fault of the developers is the constant addition of unnecessary changes to the format that often hinder the experience, the latest of these being a system in which you are repeatedly taken to the exact same meme over and over again after you finish scrolling through the ones that had just been added. There is no reason for this, and it is just one example of the constant tampering with the format that makes being a long term user of iFunny a slightly less pleasant experience. iFunny isn’t without its merits, however, as there is a near constant stream of content that is more or less fairly enjoyable, but you should be aware that you will be faced by a buggy app with a toxic community.

Issues

Overall iFunny is entertaining and a fun thing to do when you need to kill a few minutes or are bored, but there’s a lot of things on iFunny that make me want to distance myself from it. There are many accounts with large followers that post actual Nazi and white nationalist beliefs without even attempting to be subtle about it. Despite this being against the terms of service these accounts grow huge and often don’t get banned, and even if you’re not subscribed to them you can’t avoid coming across one of their posts every now and then. I get that any media platform has users with different opinions, but the fact that the this app team has actually selected posts from obvious Nazi/racist accounts to put in the Featured section for everyone to see makes it seem like they’re emboldening them. Also, for the past few months iFunny has been almost unusable for me. I use an iPhone 6S and with the most updated version of this app I can barely even scroll through two posts without iFunny lagging or freezing. It takes at least twice as long to check my subscriptions now because of how slow and unresponsive iFunny is. I hope that this will be fixed or improved eventually. Overall it’s still a good app at the core tho
