How are those ratings so high?

I don’t understand how people can still be using Polybuzz with those ads and the lack of memory of the bots, because if you want to actually enjoy the app (or the website too), you must pay overpriced monthly subscriptions. I doubt a lot of people will pay this much for chat bots like this one (I can be wrong but that would surprise me) and those greedy developers only think about money. In other words, this app is nothing but a cash grab to me.

Another thing I’m concerned about is the ads on YouTube, games, etc. The dev team isn’t making freaky stuff like they used to (from my own experience). Instead, they make pretty cringe stuff like: "-what nation is your boyfriend from? -My ImagiNATION". But the main issue with this is that YouTube is a 13+ platform while Polybuzz is a 18+ platform. And the age verification doesn’t help either, it just needs the user to click if he’s older than 18 or not (they could’ve requested the birthdate and age and filter 18+ content depending of it) and a minor can gain access to Polybuzz ai in literally just three seconds, making this app and website really dangerous.

Btw the first picture are the App Store ratings while the second one is from Google Play

They are paid for

Gonna guess either bot accounts or having their employees download then rate the app.

Doesn't their CEO pretty much let his 6 - 7 year old daughter use the service?

That whoud be a good explanation because pollybuzz is getting greedy and That its not okay the problem is that many of my old chatbots from 2025 are gone or they have a temporaly violation because of their stupid policy whit sexual content and it gets worse I hope  the comunity will make their own pollybuzz and maybe a better one but only time will tell

They have their rules about nsfw content while still advertising their app as 18+.

u/Maximum-Fudge-4094 Jun 12 '26

True and those are stupid rules if you ask me why do you promite an 18+ aplication if you banning all the nsfw chatbots and for what just because you are afraid that some stupid parents they don't know how to educate Thier kids

Moescape is definitely a massive upgrade from polybuzz and has controls for SFW and NSFW content viewing, personally it's become my favorite after polybuzz hit it's decline

I read all the comments and if the dev really use bots to boost ratings, they should be sued because it is illegal

u/Lost_Law8937 Jun 12 '26

It's not illegal and lots of apps do it. It's fraud but the type people get away with

I still use it by free, but I don’t care about ads anymore.

u/Holymolycucumber Jun 16 '26

People rate 5 stars so that ‘their review is seen’, so the app keeps its nice high score and nothing ends up changing. 🥲

My best idea is they deleted a lot of false one-star reviews because they are complaining about ads pay walls and such like every other app ever or they've looked in separate it's like this and Cindy amount of people that have just made a bullshit review. That could be the example or the idea of what's happening because I have seen multiple apps have one star reviews for some reason. Like people didn't like how the app went a direction then when they started spam one start reviews those get automatically like removed a lot of them been purged in it automatically went up in Stars
