The social network for the inquisitive

Ask.fm is a social network that puts a twist on services like Facebook, Twitter or Google+, as it focuses exclusively on questions and answers that are sent and commented on by its users.

On Ask.fm, as on other social networks, you create a user account and set up a list of friends you can send questions to. They'll answer them and will send you questions. The questions can revolve around any topic, from generic to particular or personal. The possibilities are infinite.

Ask me whatever you want

The purpose of Ask.fm is to satisfy your curiosity by giving you the opportunity to ask your friends about anything. They'll be able to do the same, and you'll even have the chance to search for other users and view their profiles, seeing their lists of questions and answers as well.

Ask.fm allows you to import contacts from Facebook and Twitter or to find them through a search. What's more, you have a list of random questions to inspire you, and when you get a question from your friends you'll get a notification. Responding to questions is really easy on Ask.fm. You can also include an image or video to complement the text.

Halfway between Facebook and Twitter

Ask.fm boasts a similar structure to that of other more popular social networks. On the one hand, it focuses on contacts or friends like Facebook, and on the other, when you respond to or create questions, you have access to a menu that is very Twitter-like.

For the curious

If you want to get to know your friends a little more, Ask.fm is a good way to do it, with public questions and answers that you can share among your friends. Additionally, it can be used to meet other people.

However, it is not possible to find questions from users you don't know, which means creating personal questions instead of queries like those on Quora.

Your review for Ask.fm
Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
