Is anyone maintaining this?

Every other thing I look up is no longer there. Restaurants out of business, stores that moved. The only thing nice is the Amap integration.

Response from developer

Hello, thanks for your feedback and sorry to hear about your poor experience. We do have a team of editors and listings managers constantly updating the directory and listings, but unfortunately, Covid has shaken things up and more businesses have gone out of business than we can currently update.  Closures don't usually get reported to us, and unfortunately, we have indeed not managed well enough to encourage users to report outdated information to us (each listing has a 'Fix Errors' button). We'll do our best to work through the over 12k listings and remove closed venues, and we do invite you to report closed listings to us (we do award all reports with points that can be exchanged for cash or vouchers).

WORST APP EVER!

The app is really bad, events randomly canceled and pushed around with no notice, QR codes with tickets that don’t work, event locations are wrong horrible app. Wasted so much time and money trying to go for events which never happened!

Response from developer

Hello, thanks for your feedback and sorry to hear about your bad experience with our app. We are a ticketing agent for several hundred events per month. A small part of those get canceled, and this is always out of our control (we are just an agent). Would you mind reaching out to alex@smartshanghai.com so we can figure out what happened?

Very Good

Best Useful App

“something went wrong” with latest update

the app barely works after the latest update. pages constantly come back with “something went wrong” error; takes 5-10 times clicking “try again” before results load. real bummer.

App not working

For over a month now I can’t click on any link on smartshanghai. It only applies to this app and I have no idea why.

Response from developer

Hi Jroc. Thank you for letting us know. Does "any link" include all tappable areas on the homepage, as well as the items in the sidebar menu? We haven't heard about this issue before, so we'd be very happy if you could contact us at tech@smartshanghai.com to give us some further information about when/why this is happening for you. If you only mean the article links on the homepage, we did recently identify an issue affecting some users who use a 3rd party browser as default. Could you please try updating to the latest version available here on the App Store and see if that fixes your issue? Thanks!

This app is the reason I love Shanghai. Bored? Need to do something in Shanghai? Just check this app. There’s always something to do in this city.

Would be 5 stars but...

I really enjoy this app, it’s extremely helpful, but my favorites STILL aren’t popping up and when I search things it says “no results:(“ every time! Why?! 😭😭😭

Useful App

Great app with lots of useful information.

The Most up-to-date directory for Shanghai

Smartshanghai is an institution in Shanghai, and I think we can go so far as to say, that it is embedded within the expat culture of the city. Unlike the other apps, it is the most updated with correct listings, and they curate the most interesting things to do in the city. App crashes from time to time, but it is still indispensable.

Bugs and crashes

Paid app for bugs and constant crashes. Fix it.
