Good Sometimes people forget that this is a blogging cite but it is. I've been using it more and more recently and I've been on the platform for a little over two years now. I have to say a lot of the bugs have been fixed but we're still struggling every now and then with the video player. The community could be a little bit nicer here and there but that's just about every platform ever. It is fun to just put my thoughts down on my blog though.

Works simply and wonderfully I love the tumblr app because it is so easy to manage and maneuver without a bunch of ads or other distractions. It's simple and quick and I haven't had a single problem with it yet. UPDATE 9/23/16 I don't know why, but the app is SO SLOW and takes so long to load now. I just made a new account and my dashboard isn't as full, so maybe that will help, but I'm taking my rating down because of the speed. If it gets better, I'll be more than ecstatic to come back and update my rating.

Still has issues Dashboard loads fine, no problems with GIFs or videos loading, so I like that. But Jesus H. Christ! Why does the "Account" tab freeze so much? I can't check my drafts or queue without the app freezing and closing. Please fix that. Also maybe add the ability to add tags to published asks when editing them, and adding photos to text posts! Thanks.

v6.9.0.04 on lg g4 Attaching photos in messaging takes ages/doesn't work most of the time. There needs to be an easy way to reply to replies. The messaging system would be better if I could search for text in the message. Fix the way tags work: the app should be able to remember the tags I use most, and I want to be able to blacklist certain tags. Update: the app crashes if I load all of the gifs in a gif set.

Crashes Often & Resource Hog Plagued with "unfortunatly Tumblr has stopped" crashes the past few versions and a huflge resource hog. Even after you close it contunes to run using up way more ram on my phone then necessary. Please give us the ability to install to SD card. This app takes up a crazy amount of space!

AWESOME I find it really hard to have a neat yet popular platform to write anything in my interest. Tumblr is a great app to help me share my thoughts to whether it's about love or even political issue. I love the interface. It's easy to adjust theme and most importantly to post something. Other writing platforms are too confusing for their layout setting. tumblr rocks.

Randy Saylor September 18, 2016

Why constantly wanting me to login AGAIN and AGAIN?? And looking up passwords too. FORGET IT. THERE'S TOO MANY OTHER PLACES TO GO ON THE WEB! Often slow in loading. Probably because of my lack of ram or similar issue. Sorry Tumblr but I'm pissed!

jacob kiser September 16, 2016

Slow loading, auto refreshes back to top Make auto refresh setting so we can choose if we want to see what's New instead of auto scrolling to the top of the new stuff, if I'm reading something and get a call this happens and it takes hours to find it if not days, so please change the settings and let us decide. Also whoever made the data rate slower should be fired.

Tamagoakura ugh September 17, 2016

Drafts is all messed up, the app keeps crashing when I try to post anything from there or it just doesn't post. If it does it makes no indication of it so I have to click "post" a few times then check my blog to see if it actually worked. I'd say to fix this but tumblr's code people are literally a bunch of chimps with a pc so why bother.

April Gamboa September 20, 2016

Constant Crashing Fun site but wow the app sucks. Everything takes forever to load even with wifi. It will crash and stop working out of nowhere. And mind you, I just use it to look at dumb memes. I can't imagine what torture it must be to actually try to post things with it.... EDIT: I've dropped a star because it has been crashing even more lately to the point where it's almost unusable.

Seyyed Ali Hosseini September 26, 2016

Use too much DATA I was checking the app usage data, i was viewing over browser Firefox same content same viewing setting, auto play videos and gif files, i found huge diffrents over the app and browser. The app download the all content over someones page but with browser, download the contents when its on your screen size not more than that. The app use 4.6GB while the browser uses only less than 1GB. I found the app download the content even when its not on your screen size. Fix it please, thanks

Raymond Shattuck September 21, 2016

App freezes up and stops working Not all the movies come in or even 1/2 of the photos. Then you start out viewing good then the app locks up stops working and shuts down. Lately when turning on the app. It's been timing not coming up until you put in a complaint. They sent me fixes but they have not work. Like unstalling and changing app strings. Still have the same problem. Never had this issue before.

Eliza Knight September 25, 2016

Useless app So tumblr got bought out by Yahoo and then proceeded to suck just as much as Yahoo? Why is tumblr not working to fix the biggest problem? Users can't even enjoy the damn app because it crashes so much. "Oh but look, we changed some useless feature that no one can even use because the app will crash before they get to it." Completely useless.... Here's to hoping that one day they'll actually improve this app.

September 18, 2016

Worked before... not anymore? Before the latest update, the tumblr app worked for me for the most part (except if I had slow WiFi, then nothing would ever load) but after the update videos ALWAYS crash the app. I can't play videos at all without the app exiting and restarting. Also, audio files have never been able to play for me and I'm not sure why. Audio on other apps like soundcloud and spotify work great on my phone but tumblrs streaming is off or something I think

September 22, 2016

Worst app ever! Shame on you! There is plenty of issues that have been raised here but what?!! Hell you care about your users. Send my kudos to those morons who you hired cause this app sucks like hell. You know the issue and I dont want to waste my energy by repeating again. Least you can do the pictures arent loading anymore, this shows how genius you guys are. In any minute mate, your business will go down once you meet with a competitor! R.I.P Tumblr!

Chris C. September 17, 2016

Annoyed My two issues so far is. The spam of fake and porn accounts that try to follow me and me not being able to prevent that. Also. Every time I refresh my notifications. They do not dissappear like they should. I'm forced to sign out and back in, in order for the notifications to be cleared/removed. Fix this asap plz

Elizabeth Self September 22, 2016

Let the bots learn Recently a lot of people have complained that their baby videos are getting flagged as porn and taken down, but actual shady porn blogs are bombarding us from all sides. If we could flag the porn ourselves you could maybe improve your flagging mechanism.

Todd Cantler September 15, 2016

Really? How is it still in play store? This is by far the worst app I have ever used. Worthless. 100%!! I know you guys see these reviews, but yet never fix this issue. Why even release updates? Doesn't fix a single thing.

A Google User September 15, 2016

Yet another useless update After about 6-10 updates it still automatically resets to the top of the dash and loses progress if you leave the app for any reason. The 'new post' button gets in the way a lot. The followers list needs to be put back into alphabetical order or at least have options for newest followers, recent posts and alphabetical order. Also after the newest update its crashing almost constantly regardless of how much time you've spent on it.

Clint Foster September 19, 2016

A bad experience all around. This is such a bad app. It opens. That's about all I can say about it. IF any of the videos play, the sound won't work 9/10 times. Audio posts simply don't work. GIFs barely load. Pictures will stop loading after a few minutes of being on the app. It's just broken to put it simply. But don't try using the mobile site. It's way worse. So really, pick your favorite color of diarrhea because Yahoo is just plain sh¡tty.

Erik Andreas September 20, 2016

Tumblr add dark mode(my eyes get irritated when using app on low light) Why does everything refresh when orientation is changed? Pls make the tabs on top always stay there. *BUG* The app no longer allows me to follow blogs, it automatically unfollows...pls fix

J Miller September 25, 2016

Opening links with app barely works The app works okay on its own, but trying to open tumblr links with the app instead redirects to the Play Store telling me to install the app about 90% of the time. I see that happen on iOS a lot, but this the ONLY Android app that has this problem.

Eunbi Kim September 16, 2016

And YOU'LL PROBABLY NEVER BE BORED AGAIN?? Seriously..?? Stop upgrading everything to make Tumblr look fancy etc!! Stop it! You need to fix the main problem here first!! Pictures won't load!! Come on!! I am not the only person on this planet who facing up this damn problem!! Why are you not listening?? It been months but you do nothing!! Do something!! Where the hell are your engineers?? Just remove your idiotic tagline coz all of us are tired of waiting any good news from you. Once, a great app and now just a sloppy useless app that wont load pictures. lmao!

Lex Trujillo September 16, 2016

What did you just update? Links need to be put directly forth to the app? I want to share things but now I can't because they need the app to view a blog. They have the app but it goes directly to Internet. It only asks you to download the app and once you do that, it won't bring you to said link. Yeah, that's not cool. Fix it fast.

Skip In Perth September 25, 2016

This app needs a exit confirmation option When using this app you are constantly using the back button on a small phone it is really easy to accidently exit the app. That means I have to open app and re-srcoll dozens and dozens and dozens and dozens of posts to get back to where I was viewing a slow and frustrating process for such a simple mistake. This could so easily be solved if you just make an optional pop-up saying "press back again to confirm exit Tumblr app" so I can abort exit accidents! Would you please seriously consider the idea?

Nicholas Hinds September 15, 2016

Manages to only get in the way occasionally Handles basic things like displaying posts. Really good at loading ads, not super awesome at loading images on other posts. Forgets your place in your dash when it's the least convenient. Mediocre but unable

Confused Kat September 19, 2016

Terrible. If it could be less then one star it would be. The update actually managed to make the app worse. Almost completely unusable. Dont bother getting. Id rather deal with the crashing non stop then not loading anything. Yet another worthless update to make the app even worse then its become

Blade Trahan September 16, 2016

Notification So I don't know which update it was but when I go to reblog something, the notification appears at the top of the screen for every individual thing I reblog. It used to not be like that. It's rather annoying and I wish it went back to what it used to be. Other than that, the app works fine. I wish I could give a picture of what I mean.

Kate Arkwin September 16, 2016

Cautiously optimistic (Hahahaha I WAS WRONG) Previous update: Not crashing as bad (so far), also really appreciate the description for this update actually telling me about the update. Still waiting for the removal of the STUPID 'since you've been gone' and 'in your orbit' features though. CURRENT UPDATE: Crashes so frequently as to be completely unusable. I'd call this app a joke, but it stopped being funny a long time ago.

Telana September 16, 2016

Better than Facebook I guess So, I like this better than Facebook, but holy crap that last update is making the app crash literally every time I open it. Please, if it's the only thing 2016 gets right, make it stop crashing. I'm on a brand new phone with hardly anything clogging up my internal memory. This should not be a thing, guys.

Sezgi Uygur September 23, 2016

Auto empty my cache It's a great app but it fills my memory before I realize how much I scroll on my feed. Maybe it's a good thing, like a reminder saying: you're too much on tumblr! Wouldn't it be wonderful if it would auto emptied it's cache? Is there an option and and where can I find it?

sean embery September 22, 2016

Slow Spend too much time staring at a buffering circle every 5 seconds after several minutes loading time. Not my WiFi, not my data & not my tablet. All have been checked. What does that leave... You.

Sean Hauer September 21, 2016

Quick post icon... Could you please give an option for the quick post circle in the bottom right hand corner to be placed in the left corner or other places. When I use just my right hand to scroll and hold phone I am constantly hitting the pop-up quick post icon and it is really annoying.

cool cat dave September 16, 2016

It shuts down SO MUCH Literally the worst app in my phone. It used to crash before, then it got better where it only crashed once a month or so, but now this latest update made it impossible to use. It crashes a second after opening it. God.

Renee Caruso September 17, 2016

Really really hate the fact that with EVERY single reblog there's a individual notification for every one. Even with it turned off, they still show up! Lots and lots of spam blogs following me more and more each day. Otherwise the app is fine, but please fix the damn notification problem.

Aileen Tan September 16, 2016

App keeps crashing? Not sure whats wrong but ive had tumblr for literal years but just yesterday its been continuously crashing everytime i open it up. Very dissapointed, i hope you can fix this problem soon

Sky Tearz September 19, 2016

Video loading All videos are constantly running at the same time automatically leading to more data to be used and other videos are lagging to watch. I have to wait for several minutes to load just one video that i choose but only small fraction can be load everytime. Then have to wait and wait. Why tumblr just dont copy like facebook video. Easy and fast.

Maggie Naylor September 15, 2016

Like it, but for one thing I can't figure out how to access people's libraries on here. it's not super user friendly in that not every feature available on pc seems to be available on mobile... May be one o' them id10t errors....

Rebecca Fischer September 16, 2016

Crashes and Overall Quality Issues Since the latest update, it crashes over and over in my fully updated Nexus 5x. Even before that I would stop frequently or lose my place. The worst thing was that any read more based off of a question response wouldn't work. I'd have to like it and read it in Chrome if I remembered. I just wish it worked as I enjoy Tumblr so much as a social network

What's New

Item 1: Queue management

You can do it on the web. Now do it on your phone/thing. Adjust the publishing frequency of your queued posts, and pick the best time of day to reveal them to the world. Go to the account tab (the person icon), tap the dots next to one of your Tumblrs, and then queue.
