So Im gonna start off by saying that i used to love Brainly, but now, it sucks. I have enough points, so I dont have to pay (and If you help other people with questions, you dont have to pay either) but its the moderators and customer support that is annoying me. The moderators are so picky about what is posted, and they delete so much stuff. I have read their policy on posting and answering questions, and loads of questions that are deleted are allowed, but removed for no reason. I have reached out a couple times to moderators and Brainly staff, but they never reply back. They always ignore feedback. I suppose there are good parts on there, but the moderators have ruined the site. I get they have a job, but lots of them are abusing their powers, or doing things that arent allowed (liek plagiarizing answers). So I guess I like brainly, because I can get a good amount of help, but just watch out for the mods.

HATE IT!
January 6, 2021

I think what branily does is cruel, it helps you on questions you know, but you have to have branily plus to get help on the ones you don't know. I think branily should give free answers to those who need it!

It sucks
September 20, 2022

I would not recomend this app/website. You have to pay for everything, and you can't do anything without paying. This makes me mad because I needed help with a problem, and it needs me to pay to even ask the problem. I get that you need the money, but there are otther websites that are ten times better simply because you get to learn for FREE. Thanks.

Brainless
June 12, 2022

Yeah brainly is typical brainless app and make the students being lazy, the thing is people who answered in brainly was paid as freelance,

i was involve working as freelance answered questions the funny thing my manager from brainly doesnt know that my answer true or false, because she just graduated from senior high school, to clarify my answer she hired more freelance as "quality" to crosschek my answer, and again

Because incompetent of manager and people who working permanent in brainly on there doesnt know about science or math, thats why all of the answer from brainless incorrect

$#*!ing useless
November 23, 2020

What a piss poor $#*!ing site. It promises answers but 9 times out of 10 no one answers my $#*!ing questions unless theyre easy asf, any question remotely difficult is ignored until its sinks to the bottom never to be $#*!ing seen again. And the site is filled with $#*!s desperate for those $#*!ty points that are mandatory to ask questions, so they give you bull$#*! answers. And thats not even going into the lonely 12 year olds asking for a date on $#*!ING BRAINLY of all sites, goddamn. I got my hopes up thinking this would help me out with my homework but boy was i $#*!ing wrong. My hopes were dashed and my time was wasted. Bad site all around, youre better off going on reddit and asking your questions on one of them homework help subreddits. Jesus $#*!ing christ, what an atrocity of a website.

About 50% of the answers on this website are fake, and if you don't make an PAID subscription account you can only view a couple answers per hour. Bad service.

Parental warning!
November 12, 2020

This site is a sexual grooming site! They got their claws into my daughter! Someone pretending to be members of the kpop band BTS was communicating with her on a chat thread. They told her they could only talk in the early morning hours between 12:00-5:00AM because that is when it's daytime in Korea. They did the usual grooming, asking questions about her looks, age and saying how she was special and pretty. They said she was hot. They said that age wasn't a thing to them because it was only a number. They only way I found out about it was when I woke up in the middle of the night and found her asleep with her laptop turned on on her lap with the chat room open. Parents beware!

Do moderators of Brainly "work" for free or something? Why are they so bad? Moderators abusing their power is still a thing of the present after months and months. Yet Brainly is seemingly doing nothing about it. An example of bull$#*! things they do on a regular basis is deleting A LOT valid answers/questions. I also see many wrong answers that I KNOW moderators see, and do nothing about it. In some cases, I was able to find the right answer. So I posted it knowing it's correct with intentions to help others. Unsurprisingly, within a day or two it gets deleted by a mod. Mods who delete my answers will usually snoop around my account and delete more of my valid questions/answers. I tried to contact Brainly about these things but they were very unhelpful. Another thing, the points system in Brainly really sucks. It basically encourages people to answer questions without trying. Which is why I get so many answers that are literally gibberish. All they want are the free points. Allowing 2 people to answer is often useless as well. Just about every time I go to a question, the second answer copies the first one. Again, all they want is the free points. Great job Brainly team.

I have so much trouble useing Brainly. When ever I ask a question with a photo, it gets deleated every time. It's so frustrating, like, I'm only trying to do my homework. But, what I don't get, is that it gets deleated like 10 seconds after I ask my question, I seriously feel targeted when I post something there. I would not recamend, so I give it a 1 star.

Brainly sucks.
February 28, 2023

I like to help people a lot. So I just hope on to brainly and answer stuff.
Guess what, this website SUCKS. This website will randomly delete your answers which you've WORKED A LOT on, with stupid and unrealistic reasons. They will just believe a person who wants the answer to be deleted. They will delete someone's HARDWORK and EFFORT just because someone said it's because "Deleting other people's homework". When the person does not even have evidence of me doing that. Brainly also deletes other people's CORRECT answers for no reason or for it just being 'gibberish'?
Brainly needs to get to the mark and stop banning and doing stuff to people for no reason and without any evidence of doing something. Wish I could give it 0 stars.

If you use PayPal, watch out. I've seen someone get charged by Brainly even though they don't use it. I don't know how Brainly hacks into people's PayPal account, but it's insane. It's 13+ OBVIOUSLY because Brainly is letting teens and adults date. The moderators just HATE people, they delete correct answers without no reason. I've used Brainly a few times, I have gone into it for answers, but at least HALF the time, the answers are wrong or they just say "I don't know sorry." Brainly, you need to QUIT hacking into people's PayPal account.

My opinion on Brainly.
September 9, 2022

Brainly is HORRIBLE! Yes, I got a 100% on one of my math tests, but that was ONE time. 55% of the answers on brainly are incorrect, so you never know if you'll get it right or wrong. I think I would do so much better WITHOUT brainly. My mother bought the monthly or whatever it's called, and I believe it is NOT worth it, so don't buy anything. People just want points and they want to be the best on this app/website, so they just type random answers and they get the points they want. That's why you usually never get any questions/answers correct. DON'T USE BRAINLY! It ruins my grade! Trust me. DON'T USE IT!

I put 5 questions in a row and nobody answered them. I made sure I written the sentences correct. I had alot of anxiety, that I couldn't do my homework and then I uninstalled it. It can be really bad and annoying. I wish I could rate it 0 stars.
