This app could potentially supplant Tik Tok overtime. As Tik Tok's censorship following it's acquisition by US investors such as Oracle, Silver Lake, and Abu Dhabi-based MGX, and UpScrolled already having questionable ethics, this may be the path forward.

Is it ready? It's been promised for a year or so now and was only available available by some signup list.

My problem with loops is I can only scroll four videos before it stops scrolling. No matter what. I've tested it a few times on different devices because I wanted to try moving friends off Tik Tok.

I can't figure out why it just stops.

Loops has a lot of bugs, but my biggest issue with it is the video quality is awful for anything with lots of motion, especially moving water. If I wanted videos without motion I’d take a picture.
When I asked dansup about this his reply was “we’re happy with the quality”, glad he is, no one else is though.
The app has had more “coming soon” announcements than anything actually materializing. I appreciate his vision and effort but not his delivery, and dear lawd his egotistical posts, yikes.
I would love to see Loops turn into what he keeps promising but so far, it hasn’t.
