LinkedIn: Job Search & News 12+

LinkedIn review

Greetings,

I’m here to tell you why you should install the app called LinkedIn. This app is so great for expressing yourself you can post a review or critique of any subject you like and it can contain as many as 3000 characters.
That’s more than enough to get your message across. You can leave comments on other post and when you repost you can add your own thoughts, which is great. This app is also fantastic because the other users on the app are always looking to help others users out giving marvellous advice for your personal and professional needs and the experience I get on the app is friendly and inclusive and you can also play games on this app, Queens, is my personal favourite it’s a game to challenge your brain a little bit and it’s a great little extra on this app, there is also two other games on the app. You can become a premium member on this app which offers lots more coverage and tools to grow your platform and you can have your account verified. Images, short videos, can be uploaded which can be a lot of fun to surf through.
Direct message is also a feature in this great app since I began using this app it has been such a fun and creative experience, download enjoy yourself and I am certain you will love it.
Thank you.

Terrible bugs, issues and experience

Terrible experiences with this app. I updated my phone then accidentally got locked out of the app because I couldn’t remember my password, so I tried to reset my password but to do that you need to be logged into the app, which I can’t do because I can’t remember my password. Each time you click to reset your password it says you need to do it in the app, and each time you go into the app it locks you out for not remembering your password. It is a silly situation that I’ve never experienced before with another app or website. Trying to get someone at LinkedIn to help is like trying to get blood out of a stone. I have tried contacting them by email, via Twitter and just get an automated response with no help. I work in legal services so use LinkedIn for a lot of networking and was trying to organise a huge networking event through LinkedIn which would have created a lot of traffic for the website when this happened. I have found numerous online message boards where many people have had the exact same issue and in the end have asked LinkedIn to close their account so that they can use another website for networking because it drove them crazy. It is perplexing for an app to not have an automatic quick fix for something like this I n 2025.

Lack of compatibility with older iOS

Disappointed that the decision has been made to effectively brick the app on anything earlier than iOS13. My iPad doesn’t update higher than 12.x but is perfectly functional. I can see the latest timeline has loaded in the background. I also understand the push to stop supporting old tech, I work in the industry and have done for 20+ years. I live the pain of legacy versions every day. However, you could take the route of retaining access via the app with the warning that as you develop some features will either stop working or be unstable. Most users would accept this, it’s not a life critical app, it’s effectively social media. The experience on your mobile app through the browser is less intuitive, less friendly and actually just painful. Perhaps you could improve that UX instead if you’re pushing people down that route. You should do that before removing access to the good UX.
In an age of focus on sustainability and discouraging throw away culture it is perhaps time to reappraise abandoning users because they are not on the latest kit. Those people may be on older kit for the right reasons. If it isn’t broken why would I consign it to the bin?
