### 2/5 — Crashes upon opening OzBargain Gear Settings

*2018-11-06*

iPhone 7plus

2018-Nov-07: Still crashes upon opening OzBargain Gear Settings. Have updated to iOS 12.1 and it still crashes the same way. Using iPhone 7plus.

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2018-07-27*

Very buggy and clunky. App crashes everytime I press the settings tab. Menu bar in the top left drops down an empty box with no links most of the time. Notifications appear to be completely random. The concept is good, but the whole interface needs work. Using an iPhone 8+ with latest firmware.

### 2/5 — Annoying Ads Banner Rather use browser

*2017-06-30*

Annoying ads banner.. easier just use browser

**Developer response:** Well, you can install this app to get push notifications.
Once you want to browse the deal, you can go to the Ozbargain via your browser so that the Ads Banner in this app will not annoy you.

### 2/5 — Paid Apps should never have Ads!

*2017-03-25*

As you can see in the screenshots, there is a banner Ad in the App interface. You may as well just go direct to the website via your browser. It's less glitchy doing it that way too!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Basically useless

*2019-08-25*

Crashes when opening setting, basically useless might as well just browse the site in safari

### 1/5 — Can we have a negative star rating please?

*2019-06-21*

This app is a contender for a negative rating of at least minus three. One thing in its favour is that it doesn’t crash immediately upon launch. It’s only when you try to adjust the settings, as recommended by the only words onscreen that it actually crashes. To call this app junk is by no means unkind.

### 1/5 — Stopped working in iOS12.3

*2019-05-27*

The app is no longer working in iOS12.3 saying go out from native app mode to work from settings. Apparently, setting option is not working for long, app just crashes each time you click on setting tab.

### 1/5 — Crash

*2019-02-15*

When moved out from the focus and on coming back the app crashes and has to be launched to go through ads from the start. Especially when not in the 1st page have to navigate all the way to the page to find the ad to continue reading

I stopped using this app and moved on to the mobile site

### 2/5 — Limited features & hidden behaviour with clipboard

*2021-01-10*

Apps is light and fast however has no enhanced features at all such as search for example, another annoyance is the name of the apps itself, you will need to search for bargain to find it not ozbargain which is counter intuitive. 

Although the above is more of annoyances the biggest concern is I have been getting notifications the apps is accessing safari clipboard for no apparent reasons, initially I installed this apps thinking if was official but looks like its not

There are other apps to try before this one should be considered

### 2/5 — Constantly crashes

*2020-12-06*

I love the concept and of this app and find myself scrolling through bargains multiple times a day but it really needs an update. It crashes constantly.. it’s almost becoming unusable

### 2/5 — broken

*2019-11-28*

nice idea but settings crashes app so you cant do anything with it other than browse 

i think the developer might have abandoned this.

### 2/5 — Crashing

*2019-08-14*

My wife’s iPhone X seems to crash every time she presses the settings but my C MAX does not have any problems. Something must be done to change this cause she wants the normal view.

### 2/5 — Can’t log in

*2019-02-14*

Works fine except the setting tab can’t be opened it causes app to crash every time so I can’t log in very annoying

### 2/5 — Crashes a lot

*2019-01-24*

Crashes frequently when opening app. Always crashes when I press the settings tab. Using iPhone 6s with iOS 12.

### 5/5 — Works really well for me!

*2018-06-09*

Thanks for making an app, it’s super handy to be able to open Ozbargain with one click on your phone. 

A few things I think that would make it better
-could you make the green and red voting boxed on each deal much smaller so that you can fit more text from the description? Sometimes the title of a deal needs elaborating on so on the website I would read the description, but a lot less of the description fits in the app.
-Also can you make a feature to save a deal? Sometimes I would like to go back to the deal in a few days to see if it’s still available or find it a few days later to show someone, it would be good if you could save it.

### 5/5 — Crashes more than Max Verstappen

*2018-06-03*

But it’s ozBargain so it’s 5 stars all day long.

### 4/5 — Love the app but...

*2017-12-06*

In the new native app mode there doesn’t seem to be an easy way to go between categories etc?

### 4/5 — Thanks!! One advice

*2017-06-17*

Thanks for the app, it is so useful. Jus tone advice, can you make the push notice be more quicker?... Most of the new posts could only been pushed about 40 mins after  they were posted..  The lagging is too long for a good bargain..

**Developer response:** Hi HAOOFE,
Thanks for reporting the issue.
I'll work on this problem.
Cheers!

### 3/5 — Not quite there

*2018-09-26*

This is a great idea for an App, unfortunately it is not quite there yet in terms of functionality. There doesn’t appear to be any way to access the settings. I would like to make the App’s offers specific to my State, unfortunately, every time I try to a access the settings, the App collapses

### 3/5 — Delay push notifications

*2018-01-31*

Thanks for the app but I got push notification after one and a half hour after deal was posted. So it defeats the purpose of getting instant new deal alerts.

### 3/5 — Great potential!

*2017-12-10*

Love the iPad app!

Needs the ability to change to new deals etc in native app mode.

And not sure what keywords do? Change keywords or does it equal searches?
