Google now. It's purpose, it's privacy compromise, the power drain, and that people who use it are too dumb to really understand what's its for.

SNS and Sneakers, applications to take part in drops new boots and later for example resell them with big profit... it's so fkin bugged, sometimes I have to refresh app like 10 times or wait 15 minute before I see newest products and it's not because of lag, because everything is going fine when I change categories or go to setting, 0 delay, just the most important category like main page is working so trash and when my friend for example got already available X product on his phone, i have to wait 15 minutes before I see it also

I downloaded a Stud-Finder app. It didn’t work—not at all. There was some component on my phone that was lacking. I would have preferred they’d give software and hardware specs on what was required before I wasted my time. I suspect my phone was too old. It was a Note 4. I wasted approximately an hour on a lost cause.

There have been other candidates for the title of “Worst Bad App” but the one I described is the first that came to mind.

Don't remember. It's just easier to remove the good ones I guess.

Cannot remember it. I always uninstall the app immediately if I find it bad.

Messenger isn't as bad as Facebook but I think the recent redesign made it worse, in my opinion. They're really trying to be Snapchat, and they should stop. It's sort of like when an adult tries to be cool and starts being like the hip young teens.

Some game apps, there are a lot of ads when playing games, and it is difficult to close ads.

It's difficult to determine, John. Many of the poorly performing apps have faded into obscurity over time, or they've undergone significant enhancements and become quite commendable.

there are many, but I think the worst were fast downloading browsers and wifi hackers.

While it's always fun to discuss the best apps out there, sometimes it's equally important to shed light on the not-so-great ones. One application that left a particularly sour taste in my mouth is [XYZ App]. It promised to revolutionize [insert purpose], but instead, it was plagued with constant crashes, sluggish performance, and a confusing user interface.

Navigating through [XYZ App] felt like trying to find your way through a maze blindfolded – frustrating and ultimately pointless. It seemed like every tap led to another error message or inexplicable freeze-up. And don't even get me started on the bombardment of intrusive ads that popped up at the most inconvenient moments.

Despite numerous updates, [XYZ App] never seemed to improve, leading me to uninstall it faster than you can say "app malfunction." In hindsight, it serves as a cautionary tale of the importance of thorough testing and user feedback in app development.

Of course, this is just my personal experience, and others may have had different encounters with [XYZ App]. But if there's one thing we can all agree on, it's the value of constructive criticism in helping developers create better, more user-friendly apps in the future.

For me, the worst application I've ever encountered has to be cleaner. Whether it was plagued with constant crashes, had a confusing user interface, or just didn't deliver on its promises, this app left a lot to be desired.
On the flip side, I must give a shoutout to Snapchat as one of the good apps out there. With its innovative features like Snap Map, Stories, and Filters, Snapchat has truly revolutionized the way we communicate and share moments with friends and family. Its user-friendly interface and constant updates keep users engaged and coming back for more.
