Leave a Review Warmshowers App
Says I’m offline every time I try to view host profiles
Just downloaded the app, logged into my account, then navigated to a city. I see the icons for hosts, but when I click one then click “full profile” it tells me I’m offline.
I am connected to WiFi, and I have strong cell reception. Tried messing with settings in the app and nothing seemed to fix it.Show lessvexmachina
This is a mess
Wow. I haven’t used this app in a long time so I didn’t know how it had changed. I think it’s fine to charge a little per a month for cyclists to help keep this app up. But I’m trying to be a HOST in a very popular long haul cycling area where there are like no hosts and it’s just not organized for hosts. And cuz it’s so focused on getting money out of people that if you are trying to be a HOST it doesn’t remember you marked host and ALWAYS cycles you back to the GIVE US MONEY page. So frustrating. Make this easier for hosts.Show lessCarol Bontekoe
Looks good
Just signed up for the annual subscription so hoping my money is well spent! :)TheNightLighter
Finally! A stable app on the go
I live the app and am so happy to see it is now available for my iPhone. I’ve been a long time user of the Warmshowers website and using the site on the phone can be difficult at times. With the app, I just open it, it finds my current location and I can see all of the hosts around me! I even get pop up notifications if someone sends me a message. Very cool!Show lessfigment27
Buggy
The app crashes quite often, especially when scrolling around the map. Not as good as the website yet but ok. I happily subscribed as I believe the organisation behind it will continue working to make the app very useful.Stapling King

Sorry to hear you've been having problems We just released version 1.1.7 to the App Store which we believe resolves some of the stability issues being encountered. In particular it addresses a problem within the map component on iOS, which should improve things for you.Subscriptions?
Like Evanprice_7 I was a bit disappointed to find out you need to pay a subscription for what used to be a low-key but friendly service. I’ll be deleting the app shortly...jwb303
Junk
Unfortunately I did not have good luck with this app. It runs supper slow and locks up every time I try to use it. I’ve tried to contact the help desk to no avail.Helipilot78

Sorry to hear you've been having problems, and thanks for your understanding. We just released version 1.1.7 to the App Store which we believe resolves some of the stability issues being encountered.So blessed y’all have made an app
Like all things in life I’m sure it will take a few tries to work out all the bugs through updates but I love the layout and functionality of this app. I can’t wait to use it once I get back on the road after this whole covid thing is over.
I know this has been a long time coming and y’all nailed it! Great work!Show lessDaniellafata

Thanks for your kind words. We just released version 1.1.7 to the App Store which we believe resolves some of the stability issues being encountered. In particular it addresses a problem in the map component which could cause the app to crash on iOS devices.Website is still free
Skip the app, use the website for free.Sig7686
