CNDO 17+

Started off great, became lifeless over time

First of all, I would like to say that I want to be thorough as possible in reviewing this app. The concept of this app is very cool, especially considering the fact that you get to interact with creators and get to know them better. I understand that the app is still in its early stages and that many updates and add-ons are to come. Still, there are many things that should be improved on as soon as possible.

The flaws? The fact that the creators and admins essentially stopped interacting within the chats, and they don’t even set up any unique challenges anymore. When the app first launched, these creators interacted pretty much on a daily basis with the communities. Nowadays, it has become a “ghost town” where very few people engage in the chats anymore due to inactivity. It’s very irritating that people have to APPLY to be in these communities, but then once they get let in, they come to find out that their favorite creators and admins haven’t been active in over 70 days. It defeats the purpose of even OWNING the app since you can get a similar experience being in a community on Amino, except with more people wanting to interact.

I have also been following CNDO’s social media, and they put a lot of emphasis on social runs specifically based in Germany. This is fine and totally acceptable, as it’s a great way for people to get together. However, I’m disappointed with how there’s not a lot of promotion and emphasis on the other communities that do different things, such as makeup or art or fashion. To add to the creators not being active, there are never any meetups —not even virtually— arranged for these communities. It creates a huge degree of separation among many of the people participating.

With that being said, I can see the potential in the app, and I would be lying if I said I didn’t form any great connections. The problem is that there is no consistency, and I think that many of these creators need to be held accountable and actually be willing to participate in these communities instead of using it as a personal promotion for their brand.
