What goes wrong
Worst ever app made cant even get my account back due to the sick captha thing….. and cant even make a new account …most labour puk app ever made
After one minute of use, a “network offline” message appears and the app freezes.
Account banned for no reason
Useless app, it has only about 10% of the LinkedIn web: posts, follow and adds. The rest is not available in the app, totally useless for me.
This app is useless in attempts of finding a job. All they do is post unrelated jobs that have nothing to do with what you're looking for.
What goes well
I get most of my business through LinkedIn.
Excellent experience with this App.
Best Networking Platform
This app makes it really easy to do the things the website version does without having to read a tiny screen like you would if you pulled it up in the phone Internet browser.
LinkedIn is one of the best I have ever used as, it's safe, fast and reliable.

When I try to view my applied for jobs I can’t get to it. I select job tracker but am given no options to switch to applied jobs and can’t even scroll on the page that is brought up which is saved...
I wish you could hide all posts with certain topics or key words. After losing my baby all I see are posts about babies and maternity leave.I’ve deleted all other social media and about to delete...
I cancelled my subscription due to predatory enforcement. They banned my account over my business name that's been active for a year with zero issues, while auto-closing support tickets without help.
