Expensive paid business features and pay-to-play model
8of the 52 read·15%
Users must pay $89-$179 monthly to respond to posts or advertise services; prices too high for small businesses.

“Went from community to extortion — If they decide that you are "self promoting" because you comment on people's posts looking for your services they restrict you from commenting from a personal page and require you use a business page. Which would be fine except they won't let you comment from the business page unless you pay them for the lead through their "opportunity alerts". This app is not about connecting…” — ★☆☆☆☆“Cash Grab App — Recent changes by the Nextdoor app have squashed any hopes to thrive as a business. They want me to pay $89 for every subject that I want to respond to (junk removal, moving, hauling etc…) I can’t imagine paying $300 a month to pay for the chance to respond to a post with no guarantee of getting a job from a neighbor. By the time I respond to a post (because I am working) there are already 10 - 20…” — ★☆☆☆☆“Payment ?!??? — I could understand maybe 25$ dollars a month but 179$ is ridiculous these are very hard times for small business” — ★☆☆☆☆

“Banning — Terrible. Bans users that don’t even use the app! I made an account because my neighborhood was having a lot of shootings once I moved, I deleted the app. I come back to the App years later to find out I’m indefinitely banned. Tf??? I’ve never even made a post or anything. Developer responded with a link I already filled out. Still waiting on hearing back” — ★☆☆☆☆“Bad app — This app sucks and always drama also they removed my old account for no reason I do not recommend this app at ALL!!!!” — ★☆☆☆☆“Ridclious — They always blocking my page all the time Becuase i recommended a business and other people do it all the time I have done it for 3 years and they keep doing it to me.” — ★☆☆☆☆

“Most biased app on internet — Totally biased against conservative speech.” — ★☆☆☆☆“Love being censored? — Then you'll love Nextdoor. It's a POS.” — ★☆☆☆☆“Horrible app it’s super controlling — This app is by far one of the worst apps ever you can’t talk about God too much. They can take your post down if you mention Jesus and so much more, the guidelines are ridiculous. What happened to our constitutional rights someone should look deeper into this I would stay away from this app. Someone should sue them.” — ★☆☆☆☆
Overrun with bots, scammers, and unverified accounts
4of the 52 read·8%
App removed postcard verification; bots, fake profiles, and scammers can create accounts without being who they claim.
›read 3 of these reviews
“Overrun with bots, isms, and rule violations — Nextdoor no longer verifies via post card - meaning anyone can go on and make an account and not actually be who they claim to be. This has allowed in bots and bad faith agitators to work neighbors into frenzies. Also - Nextdoor doesn't verify moderators. So many now are also bot accounts who just ok rule violations. Nextdoor has good rules: no religion, and no national…” — ★☆☆☆☆“Terrible — Don’t use app, full of scams, and separate to that the company support doesn’t work and all around is basically a terrible version of Facebook marketplace.” — ★☆☆☆☆“Platform full of bots — There’s so many fake profiles trying to lure ppl nowadays it’s way above average for any platform. Please beware who you deal with on this app.” — ★☆☆☆☆
Excessive notifications and unwanted emails hard to disable
3of the 52 read·6%
Users receive thousands of unwanted emails and notifications despite declining; unsubscribe options don't work.

“stop! — WAY too many notifications, way too many ads! and yet no options anywhere to disable these notifications or block these ads. why force it upon us? UGH” — ★☆☆☆☆“notifications — Right when i downloaded the app it asked if i wanted notifications, i pressed no, and i got thousands of emails from this app for weeks. they trick you on purpose. When you go to unsubscribe, it doesnt work and it forces you to go to the app and manually click every toggle to get rid of the emails. so unneccessary. trash app.” — ★☆☆☆☆“Why — Why so many ads? More than likely no response from the developers. You claim this is local news, that is completely wrong, why?” — ★★☆☆☆
