Unresponsive app

It won’t let me remove or change my profile image. It keeps buffering, I’ve left the app open for a few minutes on several occasions but it never loads when I upload a photo.

App non-functional, Support non-existent

I am set to be staying with city pop starting tomorrow - though based off my experience with the app, I am quite concerned. Half of the time, the app won’t even load. When I originally tried to pay for the “pop” it wouldn’t process the payment for close to a month before i was finally able to get through. Being that I need to check in tomorrow and the app won’t even open, I don’t know what to do. Also, there is not a single email or phone number to contact for support, so I had to resort to leaving a poor review on the app as I feel thats the only way I could get through to a real person. If the app were fixed or i received some support I would be happy to change this review from one star - but right now, that seems like a generous score for this useless app.

Error

Application is not working on iPhone 15 pro max

Worse than useless

Check-in features not working. Actually nothing is working

Poor communication, avoid Altstetten!

The other review is correct - these flats are sweat boxes in the summer. Also their communication is terrible. Once they contacted me to ask about a repair in the flat from the previous tenant, and sent someone without waiting for a response, so I didn’t know why they came and turned them away. They then told me their housekeeping reported scratches on the kitchen mirror - completely false, with no evidence or verification for me, and they are taking away my deposit and not responding either to my messages or to calls on the helpline. Avoid if you can, they are either inept or scammers!

Too many problems with the app

The concept of integrating all the services into one device is a great idea, but there are too many little things that doesn’t work consistently. For instance, you’ll be locked out of the door for no reason at all and reaching the city pop service can be a hassle sometimes. Also, if you want to request to book your washer or dryer, it won’t work despite none of the machines are being used. The worst problem is they are aware of this situation and told the residents its been fixed but the problem isn’t solved and delay happens which means the resident wont be using the washer for another couple more days. This is disastrous despite they are aware of the situation and not being able to solve the real problem and informing falsely to the residents that the problem has been fixed. And this continues to happen. Not sure why they can’t fix the little things that really annoy the residents to live in the city pop. They don’t realize how those little things can affect the resident’s daily lives. If those little things wouldn’t annoy me that much, I would have gave 5 stars. Too bad the problem continues to exist and they don’t have the desire to fix the problem.

Can’t open it on iPad

It can’t be opened on IPad… Stucked in the cover page forever…

Response from developer

We are sorry to hear that you're having trouble opening our app on your iPad. The app is actually designed for smartphone. Could you please try City Pop App on your iPhone and if everything run smooth it would be really appreciated to change the review score from you :)

Bad App and Worse Service

This business mod is all about taking your money via a cheap bookinf and then failing to fully service you as a paying customer.
DO NOT download and DO NOT book. The studio accommodations are dark sweatboxes with no light, windows or ventilation. Nobody wi reply to you on the app when attempting to communicate. Terrible provider.

Very poor tech

This is the worst App I have ever used. There are so many glitches with this App I am hugely frustrated. Today is 11th June 2021 and I believe I am using the “improved” version of this App. Five separate issues I have had and mostly continue to suffer with so far are as follows:
1. I cannot see my personal details to either check them or edit them because on my iPhone the screen was small when I was entering details. I maximised the screen to input the data entries and since then (for about a week so far) I have only been able to navigate the far right hand edge of my screen within that page of the App, whether using my iPhone or my iPad. I cannot normalise the screen size or see the detail which is out of my view, on the left part of the page.
2. When I write for help and support when trying to check-in to my apartment I receive reply messages that have a reply box at the bottom but this box does not work. So every time they send me a message I have to start a completely new stream of messages by backtracking into the main menu and sending a new message. So they ask an obvious question and cannot even reply directly!
3. Access and check-in to the apartments is via smartphone using the App. Despite more than 30 attempts and several messages between me and the support team I am still unable to check-in or gain electronic access. The tech obviously works sometimes but there are issues with it which are causing endless annoyance.
4. It has not been uncommon to get stuck on certain pages of the App and not be able to exit or backtrack from them. This sometimes rectifies itself after several minutes or upon leaving the App and then accessing it later.
5. When I booked my apartment using the App my confirmation said I needed to have shown details of all the people who would be living in the apartment. I had not seen any option to do this so wrote to the Help desk to advise my wife would accompany me. They replied to say the App does not yet have the facility to enter the details despite their confirmation saying it was a pre-requisite for booking. I sorted the matter with the helpful support staff but this is another example of the inadequacy of this App.
