100% LOVE!
I use Craigslist all the time and I have tried several different apps. THIS IS THE ONE! With this app, I love how you can set your search areas and forget it. You can choose as many search areas as you want, and just forget it... no need to enter it again & again. I set mine to search all my neighboring cities. I love how you can set it to search for "Most Recent Ads" and "For Sale by Owner" and it just stays that way, unlike the desktop version. It automatically saves your last several searches so you can quickly search again & again for the same items. You are also able to tag the ads that interest you as "Saved" so you can quickly find the various ads you were interested in. Everything loads quickly, never an issue! No annoying ads & nothing to harass you. I 100% LOVE THIS APP!Show lessTheDickinsons
It’s okay....
The pictures load quick, and once my posts are complete they are easy to access and manage in my account. At first glance shopping categories look easy, but once looking around its gets hard to navigate (scrolling endlessly through sale items), and the filter system doesn’t really work most of time (not pulling newest posts, not getting location of items correct, and not bringing up relevant items set in filter). I elected to skip map feature on my posts but there’s a map on my posts anyway. I also selected to be contacted via text only, but my posts give to option for users to call me, which I don’t like at all. The page for entering new post info keeps scrolling on my screen while I’m trying to type in a field (which is cumbersome & annoying), and my posts show they were posted more than 6 hours prior to when I actually posted (when I see other people’s posts showing as more recent within an hour). Can’t find my brand new posts under “newest”, and they don’t show up for assigned location either. I have to do specific keyword search to find them, and even then it’s a 50/50 chance of my posts ever showing up. Most likely my new posts won’t get that much exposure with this app, not sure if I’ll continue using it. I’m giving this app 3 stars because if the developers take the time to smooth out these problems, it has much better potential. However, if app continues functioning this way, I will most likely decrease my rating then delete the app.Show lessTerrible ap..... DONT BUY!
No personals
I don’t know what’s happened but the personals section is gone. Have downloaded it a few times but still nothing.JKidConel
Bait AND Switch...Desperate Developers...Sad
I’ve owned this app for years. I’m quite sure I actually bought a version after trying a free version with ads. I used to use it quite often, but I won’t anymore. If fact I can’t. The developers of this (once) cool Craigslist app have somehow blocked me from creating more than two notifications. The problem is...I have about 25 notifications saved already but I get a pop up window when opening the app now, that says I have to pay for the premium edition if I want to use the app with more than 2 notifications set. Hey diva nimrod devs, how about I just stop using your app and delete if from my iPhone and write a truthful review about my experience. Unfortunate that your greed exceeds you and you fail to understand the app netiquette of grandfathering in your paying customers with at least the functionality they already had, if not giving them more when you update feature of the app. Live and learn. Live and learn the hard way in this case.Show lessxdorianx

Just deleted this app
I actually really liked this app, but it slowed my iPad down and made it glitchy, and I could only use it 2-3 times before Craigslist would block my IP address, which means I couldn’t use Craigslist at all unless I turned off the WiFi on my iPhone and just used cellular data. I sell a lot of stuff so this was very frustrating for me because it would take Craigslist sometimes over a day to unblock me. As quickly as things move in the Craigslist world, this could mean losing sales because I’m unable to update/renew my ads.
I only saw a few other people complaining of this issue and it seems as though we were all searching/posting in multiple areas/states. I would guess that this probably looks to Craigslist like scammer activity and may not even be something the app can control, but nonetheless it still messed up my iPad too much and so I regrettably had to delete it. Now my iPad is back to its normal, lightning fast self and I haven’t been blocked from Craigslist since. I guess I will stick to Safari Craigslist or try to find another app that won’t have/cause so many issues.Show lesscarche69
Used to be great
Still is great on my iPad, but for the last year+ hasn’t worked for my iPhone. I’ve contacted the company several times but haven’t gotten any assistance. I just keep getting the error that the application cannot contact the server. Over the course of the last year or so I have managed to successfully use the application on my iPhone perhaps five times. Every other time I get that error.
I have found very little information on this error online. And have received no comment from the company itself. What little I have found refers to uploading posts, which is unrelated, or else refers to looking at results from multiple (meaning to many) servers. After reading this one, I slowly deleted all of the locations I was searching and even when using just one regardless of where in the world I was looking, I could not get the program to work for me.
EDIT file making this post, I opened the application and successfully did a search. That makes half a dozen successes over the last year, perhaps I have seen the last of the failure, but I expect not.Show lessCraziTalk
Some flaws
Using saved searches is flawed . Create a search for a Ford Mustang and save it. For this example you decide not to use your custom search , instead manually typing in the search field at the top of the screen. Just for fun type in "Honda civic" it will now search for Honda civics. Now you have seen some civics but want to use the Ford Mustang search. Click "back" and then click on your Ford Mustang saved search . It is now searching for "Honda civic" even though the saved search is "Mustang ". Try again . Nope , it's still stuck on "Honda civic" though the saved search clearly shows "Mustang". Now erase or backspace over the sticking "Honda civic " search window. click the "back button" to go to the Mustang search . Click on the Mustang saved search and now it's stuck searching everything on Craigslist! (Because you backspaced on the search window and it's blank so it searched ALL) even if you click on Mustang saved search it still won't obey !Show lessAndy Rusho

Works well
I’ve had this app for some time now. It works well. I only downloaded this one when my previous app for Craigslist was no longer offered or supported. There are a few things I don’t like about app. Here they are:
• It does not give you the option of saving your filters. You always have to go on a put them back in. I only ever want to see posts with pictures. Once you leave the app you must go back in and re-check your filters. The app I had previously saved that information.
• The Show More tab.
I have several cites saved in my app. While scrolling through a cities listings the Show More for the current city I am looking in blends in and I miss it. Would be great if that was bolder so that when you’re just scrolling through you don’t miss it.
• When you do a Search it would be amazing to have the option to uncheck ALL the categories then you could click the couple categories you’d like to search for that item in. Right now you have to scroll through and uncheck every single one. Slightly annoying only because there are so many to uncheck.
It’s a good app over all. Posting listings from it is easy and has never been glitchy. It’s never had any crashing issues for me. I do recommend getting it if you use Craigslist.Show lessGlasshouses
