The answers usually are right but I don't believe they moderate them and also you can watch an ad to see an answer but the thing is its always 2 ad's but they say its 1 and sometimes even when you watch the 2 ad's it still tells you that it requires brainly plus to see... Thats borderline false advertising
90% of the time, you get answers from like 10-year-olds, it just sucks like $#*!. Like today I asked the question Why are electronegativity values helpful in determining if a bond is ionic, polar covalent, or just covalent? And 2 people answer my question with poop, like what the hell? Then, my answer got deleted cus apparently, it was against tos
It's a great website to get the answers to your questions, there's always many people on the website so you'll probably get a question of yours answered relatively fast, that's one of the positives for Brainly. However, I'd say that's where the positive side of the website stops, while it gets the job done (your questions answered), it prevents you from seeing answers if you're 1. Incognito, it's a bit irritating, and asks you to make an account, so I simply do that to evade it then. 2. after you search for two questions, it asks you to unlock a 7 day free trial. Why do I need to buy answers? Shouldn't questions just be answered on the spot? They do provide the alternative for it, which is watching ads to unlock your answers BUT I WATCHED THE 30 SECOND AD and my answer wouldn't be unlocked despite me clicking on it and only redirected me up to the top answer saying I should unlock Brainly plus. The only reason I even bothered with Brainly is because there's more answers available on it then another service I use with less people.
Man this app is really bad.
It begs for your credit card like a fricken homeless and you have to watch the same $#*!ing ad every time
Man $#*! these people I wanna kill them and there family
They also have some 6th graders answering the question giving wrong answers
Its a great tool for asking questions, but they wont let you see the answers if you reached your limit of 15 answers it wont let you see them until you watch an ad of create a account and you have to pay for some answers. Don't get me wrong it does help with homework and test.

I can't make an account on it it keeps saying we can't complete your registration? I downloaded the mobile app and the SAME THING also SO MANY ADS why do we get limited answers? When you can't even make an account also there is no search tab in the mobile version which makes the quality much worse
Brainly is good for the first tow minutes like somepeople say but in reality their reprasentative literally tried to get someone to buy brainly premium
Brainly is SO annoying! It never lets me see the answers to the question! I need to watch an ad or pay to cheat on my test or homework, and it's stupid. It helps because I get the questions right, but it's just annoying in general. Only use if you want to have a headache because of too much ads or get scammed by paying for it!
It has been some days... when i search a question and its answer is on brainly and i try to see the ans and its showing this
I bought Brainly Plus 3 months ago to finish up school without too much effort. Now that school is starting up, I tried using my account again, only to find out that the 1 year of Plus I bought for $24 no longer works and I have to pay another $24. I tried to contact support, but they have no email listed and their in-site contact does not work.
I have the receipt on my purchase of the brainly plus site it was supposed to have me covered until April of next year but doesn't let me change my password. It sent me a link to reset it but doesnt allow me to then log in with new password. Been weeks with this problem.
The thing is whenever I use brainly, and ask some questions, many times I get improper or incomplete answers. And they want me constantly to try their purchased version by blurring the answers and wanting me to watch a video otherwise. And by mistake I tapped on a profile icon and then when I returned, the answer I had accessed to by watching a video had been blurred again. Very frustrating.
Everytime i use this website i am let down. I run out of answers and i have to sign up. So i try to sign up but i am unable to. Why? Because it says they are "unable to complete my registration" I will say this though, it helps with studying and if you are able to sign up it will be easier for you.
This place is the worst website every but u know first it was good at first then they started asking for money and charging people answers that they themselves don't answer and they start deleting your answers because it apparently doesn't follow their guidelines and their for they all are $#*!ing GREEDY DIRTY BASTARDS $#*!S AND I HOPE THEY WHEN THEY ALL DIE SOMEBODY $#*!S AND SPITS ON THEIR GRAVE.
I would rate it zero stars if I could. Let's start with this: it has the potential to be a great website but no. Every time i ask a question no one ever answers it correctly so there's no point. Even "verified" answers are incorrect. Also, someone told me to be a verified answer so I applied 4 times and they never got back to me. Ok so it wouldn't let me sign into my account and my password was correct. I ALWAYS say sorry we can't complete your registration at this time. UGGGG
The fact that questions are displayed on a timeline shows that they can be easily missed.
It's been days and my question hasn't been answered, but on other websites like Quora, i asked the same question and it was answered way faster. Also it randomly logged me out of my account for no reason...
The site allows you about two free answers daily. After those two answers are used, Brainly will place 30-second ads, sometimes double ads, on upcoming answers. After a few of those ad-powered answers, it just blurs the answer. If you want answers anytime, you will have to pay $2-3 USD every month.
Some of the moderators are unreasonable and harsh. For example, I reported an answer that violated the Honor Code, as it was copied STRAIGHT from Google. That answer was both marked brainliest and soon after my report, expert verified. I was very frustrated. One of MY answers was taken down by a moderator named "Katie" because it "violated community guidelines" when it absolutely DID NOT. I looked through the community guidelines and honor code and I found absolutely nothing against my answer. It was a simple statement that came without explanation, just like some other answers on the site. It did not have any language, statements of negative intent, plagiarism, etc. There is also a particular moderator named "JonHenderson55" who has been described as "unprofessional." I agree. This moderator gave me a warning- which others can see on your profile- for answering someone's question with a quote from another question. I wanted to help and I was not aware that this violated community guidelines. His removing my comment was reasonable, but a full-on warning for something I didn't know was against the guidelines? I think a warning should be given to someone who has SERIOUSLY and intentionally violated guidelines. He also deletes a majority of comments under his answers.
Even former moderators have warned against relying on this site.
Overall, I believe that Brainly has potential because it serves as a friendly, safe hub for students alike to help others.
However, this site seems to rely a lot on the students answering questions rather than the moderators and "experts" verifying answers. I like that there is a voting system so you can see which answer is the most credible, but to me $2-3 a month for student answers is not worth it.

I tried to renew my Brainly Plus subscription but every time I try it it doesn't work when I punch in my credit card number, THIS WEBSITE SUCKS!
HI, send us an email to [email protected] so that our support team can help you resolve this issue.
Answers are generally reliable and helps alot with my work, people are friendly but the moderation is not the best as answers that are correct or questions are sometimes deleted for no apparent reason. This has sorta been fixed but it's annoying. I love this app though and I do recommend it.
Cant even see answers without them putting ads in and most of the time theyre just advertising themselves
Hi, ads are what keep Brainly free for everyone. Without them, we would have to charge each student to use the site, and not everyone can afford that.
