I downloaded this thinking it would be a job searching app like the website, but it is just a way to see profiles of other people who are looking for jobs. I just want to search for jobs, not share my info and location with everyone else.

Thank you for the feedback! Best, IdealistI downloaded this app to search for an apply to jobs on the go, but this appears to just be a social media app that no one is actually using. Totally pointless. The map with circles is completely meaningless and it’s very hard to actually search for an find people or organizations. I just want to be able to view my idealist profile, the jobs I’ve saved and be able to apply to them from anywhere. It looks fancy, but has terrible UI/UX.

Hello. The app includes a direct portal to everything on our website, idealist.org, in addition to the social network. If you tap the idealist logo button, you'll see links to jobs listings, organization profiles, career resources, actions, and much more. The social network is there as an extra resource to help you meet others to advance your social good intentions. Thank you for the feedback! The utility of Idealist’s goal—to connect idealists to one another—can only become realized if more of us use this platform. I have networked on this app/website and and made lasting connections that will support our cause in future efforts to organize and effect change. But these lasting connections are too few. You’ve heard and/or read this before: people power. Download, rate, and, please, share this tool.
If you only use Idealist to search for work, internships, or volunteer opportunities: you will underutilize the platform but find what you seek. I accepted an offer for the first job that actually means something to me via an application submitted on this platform.

Hello. If you have logged in with multiple methods (ie, Direct login once, Facebook once, and then Google another time) you'll need to link your accounts on your idealist.org profile at www.idealist.org. Go to your personal settings at idealist.org website -> Linked Accounts and add your Google account. This bug has been fixed in our version, 2.4. Thank you for reaching out. Best, IdealistVery nice tool to meet other people and look for jobs related to social good issues!
This APP is awesome for connecting with people, both around the corner and around the world, who share your interests in effecting change and taking action to do good things. As an animal welfare advocate, the App has already helped me to find like hearted people and we are connecting to mobilize and organize our efforts to help animals.
Great APP design too!
The app can’t find my location, nothing works when I search and the other two screens are blank. Totally pointless.

Hello, and thank you for the feedback. These are issues we have not seen before. Please contact app@idealist.org - we would love to resolve this with you.
Best,
IdealistThis app is great in concept & design, especially for those in the nonprofit field. However, the screens just don’t work correctly. The search button takes over half the screen and then blocks the content you searched for. I can’t find where to put my info after the initial log in when I passed it! All fixable, so I hope these kinks get worked out soon!

Thank you so much for the feedback! You can close the search fields by pressing the magnifying glass icon once more after entering your search terms. Stay tuned for more updates and feel free to reach out anytime with questions at app@idealist.org. Best, IdealistNeed to fix mobile login issue. Same login credentials work on the regular website, but they don't work for mobile.

Best,
IdealistUsing the very same email address and password that works fine on the Idealist.org website, I got repeated error messages on this app and was unable to login. Better get working on the bug fixes.
