I've been reading PS online for free for years and thought that it was appropriate to buy the paid app. No, the high price tag does not reflect the amount of content within the app, which is well-designed and will hopefully be updated periodically. But, remember when you are considering whether to buy that PS is a major supporter of suicide prevention and that this is where their profits go. Also, if you are expecting an app like the last one, it isn't. And if we are honest, we wouldn't really want that again remember when every law enforcement agency in America descended upon the app because of the content of some of the secrets?
There is a reason that we need Frank to sort through the secrets that should be posted and those that are not for public consumption. If you decide to buy the app, enjoy the interesting multimedia experience and new secrets, and feel good that you are supporting a good cause, but don't leave bad feedback because it isn't like the old PS app. It isn't supposed to be. I love postsecret and have the book.. But this app is pretty awful. Very difficult to sort through all the secrets because it's a weird interface shaped like a giant ball..
I mean- I get it, and it's clever.. I wish they would at least update the secrets. Bad content caused users to complain to me, Apple and the FBI. I was contacted by law enforcement about bad content on the App. Threats were made against users, moderators and my family. Two specific threats were made that I am unable to talk about. As much as we tried, we were unable to maintain a bully-free environment.
Now, you've been duly warned, too. A lot of what you'd see on the app, or on the blog, is of the NSFW ilk. I'm 14 and I wana know what a guy notices in a girl," wrote fgslfivealfb, to give one example. Not exactly as fulfilling as the original PostSecret app, those who have switched over have started complaining. But then again, without the visual part, we won't come across any penis pictures.
While 99 percent of the content posted on the PostSecret app matched the type of moving stuff found on Warren's curated blog, that unsavory one percent dominated enough for Warren to pull the plug. We all know what happens when the Internet gives users a visual forum to roam anonymous. The site became "rife with penis pics, vicious attacks and other disturbing messages," according to ReadWriteWeb.
And that anonymity is part of why it reached the top-selling spot in the app store. Unfortunately, the scale of secrets was so large that even 1 percent of bad content was overwhelming for our dedicated team of volunteer moderators who worked 24 hours a day 7 days a week removing content that was not just pornographic but also gruesome and at times threatening.
He said users complained to him, Apple, and the FBI about bad content. Two specific threats were made that I am unable to talk about. As much as we tried, we were unable to maintain a bully-free environment. Weeks ago I had to remove the App from my daughter's phone.
