Pi Network 4+

I connected to my Facebook. And my Facebook has a nickname. I tried to change it for the first time in the app... and there doesn’t seem to actually be a way to do so. Even though it says “this will be the only time you’ll be able to change it” in other words one time chance.. my name is different becausw of my job. I don’t like customers looking me up. Sooo connecting to Facebook seemed to finalize my “official name” I guess. And transferring your pi CANNOT be done without your official name as it states in the app. Otherwise the chat seems weird so I don’t enter it. Just a bunch of kids being immature. Rather than actually discussing pi. Makes sense though. It’s in the start-up stage. But hopefully it turns into something!! 🤷🏼‍♀️ Doesnt hurt to add!

I was recommended this app by a friend, obviously since it's invite only. I enjoy the concept, on the go crypto mining with no battery drain. As far as the functionality goes it performs as purported and expected, however I have some confusion on how to do certain things.
I know the app is still in beta, so it could be that. But when attempting to add people to my security circle, attempting to add an existing user, doesn't link up correctly with my contacts or whatever, it says no contacts have pi, which I know they do. I added one by user name the very first time the screen came up and I found him, it said error cannot add, then it wouldn't let me search a second time, or from then on and has only said no contacts can be added. Is it a security circle thing or an app thing, or at least direct me to tech support, lol its not exactly advertised who to contact for this and I haven't found anything so this is what I had to resort to, to let someone know and ask for help.

I’ve had this app for at least a year, and have seen how invested they are in their work as well as what us users are capable of doing. This network is showing a lot of promise.

I have a gripe with issues that are reported multiple times, in multiple places (threads, reviews, etc), by multiple users. I can understand that the focus is spent on expanding the capabilities of the network, but there’s been a few issues that has yet to be addressed after years of inquiries. One in particular prevents preexisting users from adding each other in the app. And this wouldn’t be a huge gripe for me if it wasn’t for the fact that the base mining rate has dropped at least three times since I discovered the bug. This bug not only affects how many known users I have registered, but also affects how much Pi I can mine.

Not an awful place to spend your time in, especially if cryptocurrency is your forte. But if you’re looking for something to causally mine some crypto, you may want to find a service with their needs more prioritized.
