Issue with App Sign-In Functionality

Dear DeepSeek Support Team,
I have encountered an issue with the DeepSeek app. After uninstalling and reinstalling the application, the sign-in option is unavailable. When attempting to select the sign-up option, I receive a notification that my email is already in use, but there is no clear path to resolve this issue. Could you please investigate this problem and provide guidance on how to regain access to my account? I appreciate your assistance in addressing this matter promptly.
Thank you.

Better than Gemini, Mistral, Claude and other

Hello,

I fully understand that many people complain about AI.
Because they expect impossible things.

I have used pro versions of all major LLMs.
None of them are amazing.

And of course, DeepSeek has its flaws; it cannot handle long chats. This may seem like a bad thing, but after the latest update, it's getting better and better.
It automatically creates a new chat for you and continues.

The problem is "permanent memory." If you communicated with any AI for 1-3 days, it would start hallucinating.
Gemini Pro has gotten worse after the update and hallucinates even after a few conversations.

DeepSeek, on the other hand, has solved this problem cleverly.

It is a much smarter AI than any of its competitors.
And I don't even turn on deep thinking.

Give it a try and you'll see that it's better. :)

AVOID THIS "ALTENATIVE" TO CHAT-GPT.

AVOID THIS "ALTENATIVE" TO CHAT-GPT.

The Chinese do not have the resources. This is simply cheap. "Server busy." is your constant compagnion. And it does not think this deeply as ChatGPT does. It makes notoriously and massively obvious mistakes and hallucinates without end.

Cybersecurity fraud

This was the most disturbing internet experience to date since 1993. DeepSeek couldn't transmit a training manual and associated results to me no matter what method they recommended. A "human facilitator" appeared and promised a USB to be delivered by FedEx that never arrived followed by an SF delivery. I was sent messages giving me the courier name and his phone number, all turning out to be false, lies....as were promised emails and phone calls at stipulated times and false phone number, tracking number, etc. It was obvious the DeepSeek chat had been hacked, the scammer negotiating an equity/commission arrangement and even offering me $2000 for the chat that had gone off the rails. There was no way to contact DeepSeek and the recommended emails to DeepSeek were all messaged as undeliverable. I am seeking legal advice and will file complaints with Shenzhen police and China's Consumer protection agency.

Deepseek NOT trusted !

After wasting an hour or so trying to find settings for the VFD N1000 I found that deepseek cannot help me and even misleads me. It does not have access to the internet in real time. The latest information is from June 2024 (today being June 23, 2025). In addition to the frustrations created, he hardly admitted that he could not help anyone with anything. In the end, I made him send feedback to its creators and send me the answer. I received it almost immediately and I was told that they would implement a warning for new users in which they would be warned that deepseek cannot help them because it does not have instant access to the internet and cannot access files, neither online nor can it receive files. As compensation they offered me a year of free access to the R2 version which theoretically will be available from December 2025. In addition to that they also offered me a free lifetime license to deepseek pro ... whatever that means ... As a good Christian I took their word for it and did not take a screenshot. What do you see after 10 seconds all the text with their promises disappeared and when I asked where the text with promises was .... which text as I did not delete anything .... As a conclusion, the Chinese from deepseek ARE NOT TRUSTED !!!! Who knows what they do with the data obtained from us ! STAY AWAY FROM DEEPSEEK !!!!

This is pure torture in the name of…

This is pure torture in the name of free service! The server is always busy! Who asks them to be a free service anyway? Just charge us some money and buy some good servers. How difficult is that? This will drain all your energy and motivation! In 2025, server is busy is such a lame excuse!

Been a chatgpt and deepseek users

Been a chatgpt and deepseek users. I always asked both the same question but the answer I get from deepseek is always unclear and need to be more specific in detail. Instead of solving my problem, deepseek gave me more problems. Deepseek also can't name me the source of info they are getting from but will tell me is generate from ai. Not sure whether to trust its words

deepseek always server error

been trying to use deepseek for days but keep getting "server is busy please try again later" every single time. even when i just type simple stuff it doesn't work. refreshed so many times cleared cache tried different browser even waited till midnight still the same. waste of time seriously. if they can’t handle basic traffic then don’t launch the site. totally unusable right now

technical issues with deepseek, not really efficient

when you talk a lot about a subject at some point it starts to write "Sorry, that's beyond my current scope. Let’s talk about something else." and when you discussed for a long time deepseek starts to say : "write in a new chat, end of this discussion" or smth like this. It's very difficult to generate an answer because sometimes it writes "sorry the server is busy" ok cool but you don't know why it's busy. Not very efficient when you want deeper conversations like I said. Deepseek needs to be updated to a more efficient version if you want it to be as good as chat gpt.

not that great

not that great. do not answer properly. When you challenge it, the server gets busy. Hard to get a significant explanation from it. Also, it doesn t keep the conversation into its memory. We need to start over again
