If I can give no stars at all I will. shitty app, the UI UX looks very professional, which tricks you to think that it's a professional app. the customer support are responsive, but they're gener... See more

They discontinued a perfectly functional Rabbit with a buggy, unfinished software that doesn't work half the time, and when it does it still doesn't have any features that would make it worth usin... See more

They bought out Rabbit, an actually good site, just to kill it and attempt to absorb its userbase. Then they tell everyone to download Kast, a program that not only can't do things nearly as well as R... See more

Absolutely horrid. It has nothing to do with rabbit whatsoever. It's pretty much an ugly UI and invasive version of skype or discord. You can share your screen and you can turn on your webcam. Welco... See more

Terrible and unreliable

Was ok, then got terrible. Nothing works as advertised. constantly dropping people out of parties. Such a bad experience will never try again.

Sadly very poor.

I saw all the bad reviews and I thought it was a bot.
But now I understand.
This app deserves every single one of them.
Using the app, sometimes the feed doesn't load. Constant video quality drops even on a good network connection on both sides. Same with very poor audio quality. Sometimes I can't join a party even when my request was accepted.
I do not believe that purchasing the premium is worth it at all if the standard license functions as poorly as it does.
Ask Rabb.it if you can borrow their program.

So annoying.

When it works, it's great. Now if you're willing to restart it 100 million times for the audio to finally work. Pretty sure I spend on average 15-20 minutes just trying to fix the damn audio with my friends before I'm able to watch with them.

Honestly miss rabbit. Kast can't seem to fix the many issues it has. Rabbit was never this annoying.

minha festa não aparece na pagina inicial do site mesmo estando habiltado em público

i am having a problem with my parties here in kast, even when i leave my party in the public option enabled, my friends often cannot see my party on the homepage of the site. so I have to copy the link to my party and send it to them, and it’s very tiring to do it every time, I would like you to fix this problem if possible because I really like watching movies with my friends here and also meeting new friends here from kast . thank you !

Surprised by the reviews

Surprised by the reviews. For a fairly new program and in an increasingly competitive video conferencing market, this app/software is certainly on its way there! It's new and needs work, granted. There was trouble in initially inviting people to the party, but once in they are always there and can easily access it, which I think is a plus on how companies will be doing their meetings with set people. I do recommend and am seriously considering upgrading to premium to support the improvement of this.

Fantastic service

Fantastic service. Rabbit's dead, folks, and services like this take time to set up. Their customer service is fantastic and helpful, too!

Buggy

It seems there's a common set of bugs that I how have affected me and my friends using Kast. It's better than nothing, but it's a pretty frustrating platform (complaints are for browser and Windows apps). I would be highly reluctant to recommend it to others.

- Multiple of us have had problems gaining access to private rooms. Either it doesn't send the request to the host, the host can't approve the request, or the guest can't accept the invite when invited. The only solution we could figure out was for the host to temporarily make the party public, which allowed any trying to get in immediate access, but it also meant we couldn't close the app or navigate away from the party without losing access. (This solution also let in random people who hadn't been invited that the host then had to manage.)

- At least one friend was able to join a party, but she couldn't participate in the chat on the browser app. She'd post a comment. It'd display what she said for herself, but it didn't display her comments for other party members. She had to download the Windows app to be able to participate.

It's great for what it's needed for

It's great for what it's needed for

It's a great app for spending time watching stuff with friends, It's no Rabb.it but it sure does great and is the best option available in my opinion. Works quite well for watching stuff with friends and family remotely, something that in this day of Covid and stuff, is very much needed
