Leave a Review Warmshowers App
WS app and experience have gone way downhill
The Warmshowers idea and general service are great; I used it from 2013 to 2016 for my first long-distance tours. But the app and recent redesigns (two over the years?) are embarrassingly amateur level and have made the experience much worse, with technical problems galore. Considering it is now a paid app for full functionality, this is unacceptable.Show lessptotheatsign
Terrible app
A wonderful community of cyclist willing to host and needing to be hosted is let down by an app that badly needs an update. The basic function of contacting members and requesting to be hosted often lets you down with messages undelivered or received suddenly 10 days after you needed them! Website seems better .Show lessgf815199121
2024 improvements are great
I am really getting excited about the new app updates. I was very reluctant with the new website and app but I have to say KUDOS!!! It has come a long way and I am excited to say I have hosted 8 cyclists so far this summer.
Clicking on message tab will bring up my messages rather than just having it say “0”. It is not without its errors but much improved. I look forward to all the updates and growth to come.

Dreadful “new” app
Recently “updated”, this is basically unusable. The developers clearly don’t have an appreciation of what a modern UI should look at feel like, and no comprehension of UX. it’s a frustrating mess that forces us to use the website which is potentially even worse. I want my money back, but unfortunately the money is the only way we have to access this community. Such a shame it has to be done through the lenses of these awful interfaces.Show lessceal111
WS has gone downhill (in a bad way)
The Warmshowers idea and general service are great; I’ve used it since 2013 for my first long-distance tour.

I have been a host about 10 years.
Recently, within the last two months, I can never get into the website, the screen is always frozen. All I want to do is respond to a request to be a host for somebody inquiring about staying at my guesthouse.Apache Junction, Rick
Please go back
After the update all is still not functioning. The website barely works but at least it works. App doesn’t load icons, navigation buttons don’t respond to taps. No visual signifier to tell if the data is still loading or if the app has fully crashed.
Burn it down and start from scratch. It’s time to stop putting bandaids on this thing.Show lesstruemarmalade
Don’t pay
Paid for the subscription. Now the app signed me out and when I signed back in it doesn’t recognize I paid for the subscription so it wants me to repay so i can use the app. My subscription on my phone shows it doesn’t expire until 2025. So yeah make sure it doesn’t sign you out if you pay. Was really relying on this app for an upcoming trip.Show lessJordan Markley
Incredibly frustrating
Crashes constantly, doesn’t reflect actual membership status, etc. Needs serious work.Grateful-Ed
Awful
Had to pay a one off charge, but states this is the only charge (£30!!) and now it wants me to pay a monthly subscription to use anything. Terrible and app and horrible profiteeringGb888897
