Customer Reviews

• Great app!!

  by Damian Morales

  This is a great app! Great social media!! One problem, when I first open the app, it makes my phone reset it self!! Don't know why? One it resets the phone, if I open the app again, it's all fine. Only on the first time if the day that I open the app it makes my phone reset!! Anybody else has this problem?? Other than that it's an awesome app!! Thank you!!

• Awesome app

• G+ > FB

  by Justin Mangual

  Honestly, this is better and more professional than Facebook.

• Great

  by Nerline77

  I love it.

• Great for picture sharing

  by WASSAAB

  I don't use the social aspect of the site, but this is great as a picture sharing reservoir. The auto upload from the phone is great. Plus the enhancements are fun, sometimes dramatically improving the image.

• Perfect for us

  by Sanchez1975

  My wife and I use Google Plus for communication with our family of which many members are spread all over the world. The Hangouts make it perfect for us to get in touch, and give our daughter some face time with her cousins all at once. The app brings all the functionality to our phones and truly allows us to connect whenever, and wherever. The format is great. It takes away all the BS that you traditionally find on FB, and places the elements you really want to see up front. If you're on Plus, I recommend you get this app to supplement and expand you're experience.

• Very handy

• I hate it

  by killer6965

  Every time I open this app, the share menu on the bottom is open and it doesn't go away, there's one pic for me to share but cannot select it and cannot close the menu bar no matter how many times I select the "x" to close. I'm deleting this crap, thanks google for a bad executed idea.

• Ok

  by Niasiakyss

  I don't like how on my phone the photo share keeps popping up and when I hit the x it's still keeps popping up

• Review

  by Bighorn1525

  Enjoy the app greatly. Like the ability to pick areas of interests. Does Facebook one better.

• Great for Storing Photos

  by dqeryofdhorggi

  I had about 1700+ photos on my phone taking up almost 3GB of memory. I couldn't back up my phone to iCloud because there was not enough storage, and I didn't want to delete any photos. Google+ was perfect. I backed up all my photos to Google+ and was able to delete any off my phone and they were still backed up into the app. It also has an auto backup where any photos you take will automatically be backed up into Google+. I was able to delete my photos from iCloud thanks to them being backed up to Google+, and allowing me to back up the rest of my data to iCloud.

• Great App

  by Cecil Miles

  This is one of my most important tools in building my network and promoting my blog. I hope the information I am sharing is found useful and interesting. Google plus allows me to keep those who have taken interest current on new posts and I follow them to keep up on their interests.

• I like it

  by Miguel151169

  Quick and easy to use. I still need my friends to join Google+.

• Better than facebook.

  by Dangerainbow

  I like that u can use that for yo education and informations.

• Family awesome App

  by Search4Truth

  All I have to say is for families this is an awesome social media app which I totally prefer or Facebook !

• Crashes every time in open it

  by everetthiller

  Finally decided to give it another shot. Crashes whenever I open it. The web version design is too busy. Feel like I'm drinking from the firehose. Also had to get rid of all the default feeds. Feels like the feed equivalent of bloat ware.

• ???

  by I love u John cena

  I don't like how the pictures on the bottom open when u open the app. Also I don't like how my pictures that I post stay at the top and the others are always are on the bottom. But I like everything else

• better than nothing.

  by PhilB@B

  it allows for auto photo backup. which is good. however, I hate the UI. it's so inconsistent to anything else. ugh.

• Good App

  by Djones3541

  I love the google plus it's nice way to stay in touch and follow nice people.

• Continual pop ups asking for reviews

  by badqat

  Isn't something that makes for a fond review. One star because of this incessant pop up.

• Things I love about G+

  by DeeMisetz

  The UI is great. It's smooth and fluid, with many easy to use features. Do I care that all my friends are not on it? No! It's a plus! My friends and acquaintances destroyed FB. When IG became better known, they soon destroyed that too. Hopefully they never come over. FB can just keep stealing G+ ideas for those ppl I left behind on FB.

• Photo backup flaky

  by David Everingham

  The auto photo backup has been problematic lately

• Great app!

  by Corey Hardman

  Love the clean look.

• Fun!!

  by Derrick Hanna

  And simple to use!

• Nicely done

  by gmplr831

  I enjoy using google plus. Even with it being on iOS it works quite well. I am very happy with the interface and have had zero problems with it. I hope that Google will continue to promote it. Thank you.

• Smile :)

  by Coyotetooth

  Love google plus wish more people I knew used it!

• Why u no use?

  by Me27328

  Best social networking site. It is faster and has more features than the others. Why does no one use this?

• Great app

  by Iraklid94

  Great app...!

• Good but can't get all features

  by Yostdude

  I really like the app except that i can't get emoji gifs like everyone else

• I like it!

  by HeatherKay1383

  I like google plus because it's easy to control what you want to share and who you want to share it with. Uploading pictures is a breeze and I like the news feed. 5 stars from me!!

• Love app but freezes a lot.

  by nodyes

  I joined Google+ to back up my mobile photos in a cloud separate from my hard drive. I'm a family history buff and we back up everything "just in case". As I explored the social functions of the Google+ communities I find a lot to enjoy but the app keeps freezing. I see a post, click comments, it freezes. I click +1 on something, it freezes. I scroll my feed, it freezes. Usually I have to kill the app and try again. I'm thinking that other than photos I'll just do Google+ on my laptop.

• No Idea!

  by Dxgbx

  I have no idea how you do it but this is awesome! I love it and will keep trying to navigate!

• Excelente

  by Renancito1

  Lo mejor de Google pero deberían actualizar la aplicación con el traductor incorporado como en crome

• Fits the need

  by MinMT

  Reasonable app that allows you to use +Google on the iPad. I wish you could set a specific circle as your default feed instead of just all, but in general it is straightforward and I have not experienced any glitches.

• Love it

  by monks97ue

  See above

• So far so good.

  by Mika Rose

  ...for now.

• My newspaper

  by YOATHOME

  AAAAA+++++

• Good

  by YoloAppRater

  It's good but sometimes it crashes on me.

• Just throws away a comment if you type it out and there's an error.

  by StarKruzr

  That behavior, specifically, is unforgivable on a service that prides itself on acting like a longhorn blogging platform.

• How I think

  by Xfdxxbffd

  I love this app

• Better then Facebook

  by eric james

  I use it way more then Facebook in fact I removed the face book app from my phone .and I only access it by my mobile browsers

• Kill bill

  by Gale bell

  I can do this because I like how I have instant upload on my photos & its great meeting new people or catching up with old friends on google

• Great app

  by LilianC

  an awesome app for keeping up with my iphone photos!!easy to share with my google connections.

• Communities

  by Pepin24

  I've been using this app for about six months and love it for the communities that I can find on it that are specific to my interests. I have found several international groups for knitters, crocheters, tea lovers, and more. We support and encourage one another, share websites patterns and advice. It's a wonderful tool for interacting with like-minded people love it!

• I love this app

• Love it love it love it

  by Loudfur2004

  I am always using google+ over Facebook. The format is so great, and it's been made into an app without losing greatness! One comment I have though is that it could be faster.

• Great

  by Thunderpud

  Wish more FB users would move here !

• Loved it before, but...

  by Kryss C.

  This app was freaking AMAZING! Had no problems with it whatsoever....up until last week. The app constantly freezes & waiting for it to unfreeze or tapping my screen in other places doesn't work! I'm ALWAYS having to just leave the app altogether! Fix this please!! Would've been five stars...

• by ℳℑℳℐ

• Terrible Bug

  by Thomas_M_

  This app freezes randomly when I try to make a post. I have to shutdown the app completely to regain control of my iPod. This bug makes the app unusable and stressful.
