Top Ten Most Dangerous Social Media Apps

Several suicides have been linked to this app across Ireland. People can ask anonymous questions and torment others. There's also sexual harassment. Many of my female classmates have been solicited for sex on this app, by this unknown person. It could've been a classmate joking around or a 50 year old pedophile. My friend told me that someone close to her was cutting because of all the cyber bullying she experienced on this app - ethanmeinster

This app is used for cyber bullying and sexual harrasment its also used for child predators and for people to actually urge people to commit suicide! This website needs to be taken down!

I once read a story about someone who used this. She sent anonymous hateful messages to herself, then later committed suicide.

I think this site is stupid.

And I've heard stories of trolls and bullies. - Lunala

After what happened to that girl at Virginia tech kik is a very dangerous site for younger kids with no common sense

Many ignorant teens put their Kik account name on their Instagram bio. This would make them vulnerable to complete strangers and online predators. - ethanmeinster

Oh yeah, I've heard of this app before. I knew it was dangerous. - nintendofan126

I think it's safe if you give your Kik to just a small group of friends. - BlueTopazIceVanilla

I tried going on once, here's the types of people on here

The Perv: The most common person on here. Some 30 year old jacking off

The Kiddo: Some 8 year old looking for girls because, that's what the kids do

The Predators: These are real people and if you see a man over 40 on here instantly close out. They sometimes use videos of girls to lure in little boys "stranger may be using a simulated cam" is a red flag

The Bots: robots putting up ads for other chat sites

The Real People: Very rarely, you will find a nice person on here to talk to. But, this is really rare - Yatagarasu

It's basically video chat with strangers. Not such a good idea... - ethanmeinster

It lets you talk to strangers, which is creepy if you think about it.

It's such a stupid idea

Top 1 Most Dangerous Social Media Apps.
Very most wanted app it.

Rather toxic place. Many discussions I've watched are on very low level, mostly name-calling intead of actual arguments. The requirement to use real identity doesn't help at all, it's like everyone gets some kind of internet rage. I've seen social sites allowing more anonimity where the users can be much more civile.

I used to be on facebook, I deleted mine in 2017, and one day in 2015 someone tried hacking my facebook I got a log in alert, I was lucky to be online to dc them - trains45

Thankfully I don't have Facebook. There are lots of cyber bullies on the Internet. Especially the ones that tell victims to commit suicide.

Absolutely disgusting app! Lots of marriages have been damaged and or destroyed by this garbage. Lives are ruined by it as well

This app is of the devil. You can pretend to be anyone and cause only horny people enter there you can guess what things could happen to you..Lord knows I warned you.

I don't know

YES U ARE RIGHT

You're basically giving your secrets out to strangers, thinking that it's safe. However, the app lets you talk to people near you, making you lose anonymity. - ethanmeinster

This game is a haven for pedophiles. Kids are sexed up with provocative clothes and suggestive dances, and exposed to players of all ages, In a dating site format where kids get to present themselves as single, married, divorced, in a relationship, etc., and indicate what gender they are looking for, just like any regular dating site. A 13 year old can easily befriend a 40 or 50 year old, invite them to his or her house, get into bed or into a hot tub, and have a conversation in a private chat, with only a censorship program to protect them, which the kids can easily trick. In fact, for them it is a fun challenge to bypass the censorship and be able to curse and talk about sex. Most contests on Avakin are held via Instagram, so kids have an incentive to get an Instagram account, through which they can share photos and all kinds of information. Already a 13 year old girl was targeted by a pedophile through Avakin life. But instead of protecting the children, the game developers have ...more

If you have never been to a gossipy college you have no idea how bad it is. This app is used for bullying those who are different or who rubbed the wrong way with some people. They banned names so users make codes, but it is still obvious who they are talking about. Sometimes users write distinguishing features about the target, and it sows hate towards certain groups of people. Horrible.

You can anonymously chat with people within 500 meters. This has caused whole schools to face rampant online bullying. - ethanmeinster

Sounds like an alternative way of spelling Tik Tok. - XxembermasterxX

The problems are not well-dealt with at all! I was once scammed by a pedo and they asked for nudes. I reported him, and nothing was done! Team Amino literally did nothing.
A close friend of mine was also targeted by someone, but of our age. My friend was led to believe this other person was a transgender male who loved her, and my friend loved "him" back. Turns out (since I got to talking with "him"), that SHE was actually just a cis lesbian female who had a crush on my friend. My friend was in tears when I broke the news to her.
I feel bad for anyone who comes into this app unaware and ignorant to the dangers and emotional threats that come with Amino.

Team Amino hardly takes action to prevent harassment and bullying. They also allow sexual based text in private chatrooms and unlisted communities. They're also always bringing out terrible updates and features.

Filled with different fandoms and communities amino can make people feel lonely and sad and has a terrible moderation team, a pedophile was reported several times and team amino made no attempt to stop him as he ran around a community he made with over 4,000 members perving on multiple underaged girls.

I agree amino needs to work better on stuff like this

A friend of mine made an account once on the page not the app, but then found out that it knew her location! Every time you log in, it tracks that location.

And we checked the privacy settings on instagram, they have share or not share your location but not a don't track me, and her location settings on her device (tablet) wasn't even on! I think it's creepy even if the page only sees this.

And here's another thing:
You need to make an account to even SEE any posts! Yes, you NEED to have an account. And the page wants your email or phone number plus your real first AND last name!

One more fact:
If you search instagram hack or a similar search, instead of seeing stuff about preventing hackings on instagram, you see stuff about how to HACK INSTAGRAM!

So, I recommend you to NOT use instagram, and don't let your children use it. I recommend for your kids, messenger kids on facebook.

And also this page, you don't need an account AND you can see ...more

THIS APP IS SO STUPID
why the hell would someone subject themselves to this kind of stuff?

One of the main points of Instagram is to get likes. This encourages people to try to get more popular by posting photos publicly, though there is a private account button. There's also direct messaging you can get from anybody. No one else sees it, so it can easily be used for inappropriate content. I've been cyber bullied on Instagram before, but it doesn't happen as often as it does on some of these other apps. - ethanmeinster

As long as the account's on private and you don't accept ghosts who could turn out to be pedophiles, its fine.

OoVoo is safe because you can chat with who you choose and generally your friends are people you know.

It's basically like skype. Added a stranger who turned out to be some pedophile forcing you to send nudes? Your problem. Could've prevented it with one click of the ignore button. - vashappenin

I remember hearing about bad things about this app in 2014 I don't think I heard about kids being kidnapped, and if you put it in child mode she would of just copied you just like talking tom and ben do - trains45

It's not a social media app but the rumor was never real?! Because of you guys they removed chat?! - Ilovestephanie

That isn't a social media app, but I heard there is a pedophile in her eyes. And some children got kidnapped. So don't download it. I deleted it right away. And the taking care of her app.

Just a hoax. It has been proven that no kids were missing. If so you would hear it all over the news - Yatagarasu

This app its pretty weird. It ask you a lot of questions and just boring. I don't know what's so dangerous about this app?

Is the best app for kids they can try to do dances and express them selves my little girl did not talk a lot but 3 weeks later she was talking a lot and dancing and dressing like herself again your kids should get it

If you think this is for kids then I would respectfully disagree. - Frogg

Tiktok is what keeps me going... watching big influencers have fun doing dance trends and being funny and making me laugh, and for those who had claimed for there to be no saftey settings,that's a le as I have mine on a private account so only people I accept to follow me can and there's a setting where you can set so only certain people can view a post.

This app has become so dangerous parents are urged to keep their children away from it. With all the dangerous features people are at risk, especially children and teens. It’s more for grown ups and people have been in danger from this app.

TikTok was my life till I found out Children where getting kidnap off the app although I love it I would not recommend because of the kidnapping problem.

Musically is a dangerous app. It may seem fun and fine but it will get your kids to commit suicide. The comments on musically cause all that

Filled with little kids... retarded

This app can lure pedophiles

I have it, but it's dangerous - KaykayZ

Vine is STUPID!

Vine, very unsafe... kept me up for hours laughing... its had me dead

There was a video on the news of a woman who went to the club with her friends on Periscope. Eventually, she started drunk driving, and people viewing it called 911. Thankfully, nobody was hurt - BlueTopazIceVanilla

Do not download it its really inappropiate. This random person that I don't even know who he is sending me a nude pics of him by the beginning of a dial number +91.It's A MASSIVE HAZARD. Don't do it.

1 word it had momo - XxSEVEREDHUMANITYxX

It’s an odd site that lots of teens use where other strangers can send anonymous messages to them which could be rude and insulting which can cause severe anonymous bullying

I remember hearing people say it was dangerous on sept 2014, that it can watch you and stuff, I uninstalled it it made me nervous, and facebook app was trying to force me to get it, because they moved the messages on the facebook app to messenger, I don't have to worry now since I don't use facebook anymore - trains45

Safe if you only add friends. I'm allowed Facebook + Messenger in 1 month. I can finally use animal filters on me without having to have Snapchat (which I'm nt allowed$ - Lunala

Adware virus found.

Risky

Ok, PopJam is THE MOST weirdest app ever, and you can post selfies! I saw a grown up man posting a selfie, and he talks about LGBTQ all the time in front of little kids who play it!

This is very unsafe and is a big help for child predators and shouldn’t be an app Tik Tik is much safer

Rampant with pedophiles.

Not safe. Just like tiktok.

This was linked to 3 mass shootings in 2019, including the Cielo Vista Walmart shooting in El Paso that killed 22. People in the forums were promoting gun violence. Dangerous. - SamanthaRosie

8Chan is basically a version of 4Chan without any rules whatsoever, there is a reason why this site isn't listed on Google. Also, in order to access the site without getting DDoSed by a random user, for the live of God, use TOR.

You can get stream sniped both in gaming and real life - B1ueNew

I used to have this app but not any more you try to make your avitar match with real life when you just install it it says put access on mirphrophone and if you deny it you cannot play the game also it looks totally innocent on the outside but really it is a tracking device.And when you call somebody there is statics and THEY TRY TO TRACK YOU DOWN please do not install this app

L.A

Snow is a hacker paradise. It’s like snapkiz it lures you to the danger. You would not believe all the dangers that lie within.

A female 'friendly' photo sharing site where they can be free to share photo 'collections' of themselves with virtually no boundaries. Girls as young as 13 have been seen in questionable photos.

Horrible, I must say. Long story short, you can interact with men over the age of 30 to about 80. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR KIDS! You can strip, for money, again not for kids, and have LOTS of sex. Do not recommend.

Imvu is a sexual things where kids can lie about there and don dirty things like twerk for money strip and have lots of sex. I belive imvu should be banned. I usedx to have it and it caused lots of trouble for me

For me, Pinterest is the most great app! Its help me find idea for my art work too! I ♡ it! But sometimes, there is a little nude pic.

Its trsh and its dangerous

A guy could end up pulling out something inappropriate - MissWinnipegJets
