★★☆☆☆ No news. Only capitalism.

Two BuzzFeed originals followed by endless product promotions. Make your money BuzzFeed. Smh.

★★☆☆☆ i used to love buzzfeed…
by mmp19911014 · Mar 27, 2026

buzzfeed is an app that i have not only used longer than basically every other one but in my mind used to rank far superior to all others. it used to be filled with unique, thought provoking, educational content. i would constantly send my friends the articles and it was a multiple times a day checked app for me. i used to scroll it every night before bed. for months and probably more than a year now i have laid down in bed to scroll buzzfeed and within minutes i am closing the app. i have never in my entire life seen more gross consumerism than what fills the feed these days. every single post is about purchasing something. and no im not in the shopping tab. its absurd. you used to be a rare gemstone among the masses. and now sadly i cant stand you. i dont need 75+ shopping articles with a different title but the same items. it’s gross and frankly boring and lame. people can’t afford gas or groceries we don’t need links to buyout amazon. i expected more of you. you were capable of more. be better buzzfeed. you sold out and it sucks. a long time lover turned hater.

★☆☆☆☆ Ads ruining the whole app
by Nope368 · Feb 3, 2026

I’ve always loved scrolling through buzzfeed articles but their ad placements are so very annoying. They make it so you accidentally click on them constantly. I get needing ad revenue, but come on. I shouldn’t get taken out of the app every 10 secs by some random ad

★★☆☆☆ Way too much on the screen
by Kgarza78 · May 3, 2026

Really need to pare down the content. It's overwhelming on the app and makes me not want to use it.

★☆☆☆☆ My review
by KimmmmmAA · Apr 12, 2026

Too many quizzes and shoppings for me. Now there’s an ad that pops up when you actually find something to read and it’s really annoying. One thing I’ve noticed, that has nothing to do with this, is on the shopping posts there’s this Vampire Exfoliant thing that been posted for years. I don’t think it sells that good if they’re still trying to get rid of it. Maybe it does work and that’s why it’s ALWAYS there but I’ve never seen it at someone’s house or ever been talked about. Doesn’t seem like anyone wants it. Again that has nothing to do with anything though, just my thoughts.

★☆☆☆☆ So buggy, so glitchy, so sad
by MrClean303 · Apr 4, 2026

Remember old Buzzfeed? When it was entertaining? Before they lost their soul? Anyway that’s not the point here. This app is a no for me. Freezes, glitches, blanks out randomly halfway through an article, basically all the same things their website does. They tell you to do the same thing they’re going to do when they reply to this review… contact support and they’ll walk you through resolution! Super helpful :) Support acts as if it’s the first time they’ve ever heard of these issues even though we’ve all just been living with it for years now. They ask you to refresh cookies and cache, reset your phone, uninstall and reinstall the app, the whole deal. Poor Buzzfeed.

★☆☆☆☆ Booty nana app
by #ckyl · Jun 29, 2026

This app is so nuts and it always lags when im trying to do a gyat dang quiz. Get the makers of this banned immediately. Buzzfeed more like booty feed.

★☆☆☆☆ Used to be for entertainment
by Mimi5017 · Feb 25, 2026

I used to really enjoy BuzzFeed. They would post some news but you had to realize to take their reporting with a grain of salt. I enjoyed their listicals, quizzes, celebrity news, shopping tips. Now every post is so political. They have moved away from entertainment and moved to one sided “news stories”. I know I’m not their target audience, but I still enjoyed their site and would scroll past the political posts, now it seems to be 90% political and maybe 10% entertainment on a good day. Christian republicans need to stay away. I don’t mind a little one sided stories, but it is to the point now of aggression.
