Now that I am logged in it doesn’t see my ad underneath the ads tab only when it goes through the web pane. Images don’t fill the screen even with vertical aspect ration. This is probably because it’s a Web app shoved into an iOS wrapper. Given the exorbitant cost of placing an ad I would expect far better. I should’ve probably given it one star. But at least the app launched without crashing. Congratulations! **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your feedback. From what you have described, it sounds like you may have two separate bikesales accounts, and you may be logged into the wrong one on app but the correct one on the mobile website. Please reach out to our support team on 13 72 53 so we look into this properly for you. Thanks ### 2/5 — Feature needed *2026-04-06* App is mostly good. Needed feature: add in recent search. When I go back on the app and I just had a search configured but not saved, store that with the Cookie Monster and let me click on recent searches. Needed feature removed: swiping to the right should NOT take me back to the home page. Oh my god. I swipe left through 20 photos then swipe back right and if I get it wrong by one it takes me back to the home page and I have to spend 5 minutes reconfiguring my search. If your devs can’t do it hire me as an outside consultant lol it will take 2 days ### 3/5 — Search function Flawed *2026-01-20, version 5.25.0* I have saved my search in favourites but if I search with the saved filter, newly listed bikes do not appear. My own bike listing did not appear. Maybe I need to pay more to appear multiple times or on the favourite filter list. Off course little safer than marketplace.. Cheers! ### 2/5 — TOO CONFUSING! *2026-01-20, version 5.25.0* Too confusing having two apps that look the same!!! What were you thinking?? Bring back a red asap. ### 4/5 — What have you done? *2025-10-04, version 5.19.1* Please roll back your search function. It is now completely unusable. ### 4/5 — Hate the new app *2025-08-28, version 5.17.0* Love the app works great how ever now that all the apps eg carsales,Bikesales,caravan sales ect are all blue it’s hard to tell which app is which HATE!!!!!that all the apps are blue ### 2/5 — To much management *2025-08-20, version 5.17.0* A colour rebranding is like unnecessary site and app upgrades. It’s bored top heavy employees trying to justify their existence. ### 1/5 — Why?! *2025-03-20, version 5.7.0* I HATE that every time I clear filters and start again, my preference for price low to high or km low to high is now “featured”. It ruined Carsales for me, now bike sales is following the same counterintuitive path! ### 1/5 — German *2025-03-20, version 5.7.0* Please bring back search option by most recent bikes listed . This is very important and needed feature ### 2/5 — Why change it?? *2025-03-20, version 5.7.0* You’ve ruined the layout and made it confusing to use. It worked perfectly well before! ### 1/5 — Feedback *2025-03-04, version 5.6.0* Too many bikes advertised but sold days, weeks ago. So called “Verified phone numbers” are a joke !! ### 4/5 — Does not support latest iOS *2025-02-21, version 5.5.0* Since ios18 you can not get rid of your unread notifications (unread count digits) anymore after you view them. Same for all your aps. ### 1/5 — OVER PRICED *2025-02-12, version 5.5.0* Used bikes sales on three occasions now. Only ever sold through Facebook marketplace. Bikes sales is too overpriced on 10k plus bikes, with there extras that get you nothing. 120 views on bikes sales compared to 1400 views on marketplace place. Yes more potential buyers!! ### 1/5 — Selection of motorcycles *2025-01-08* what the issue is that I had let you peeps know, when doing search of selected make and models the after selecting a few makes and models it displays the entire list of all makes and models once pressing search the entire amount of motorcycles that is currently available in bike sales instead of the amount of motorcycles that have been selected which is say 539 instead of 22,000 please fix asap thanks ( within app not website ) **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for getting in touch. This has been passed on to our apps team for further investigation. ### 1/5 — Poor search *2025-01-07, version 5.3.0* Needs more options to search for specific features to make it easier to find what your looking for ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Disspointed *2026-07-03, version 5.35.0* Overprice to sell something in this app. and get nothing ! ### 1/5 — Was great, now buggy *2025-11-20, version 5.22.0* Really like this app, but recently the app has just started to freeze up when using it. No warning, and nothing you can do except exit and shut down the app and try again. Pretty frustrating when you’re in the middle of a search. Please fix it as it was five star previously. ### 1/5 — Update failure *2025-11-17, version 5.22.0* Latest update doesnt work error 502 ### 1/5 — Useless now they removed price history *2025-09-07, version 5.17.0* Price history seems to have been removed. How are you supposed to research and pick trends? Zero stars. ### 1/5 — Reset Password every log in *2025-09-03, version 5.17.0* WHY THE HELL DO I HAVE TO KEEP RESETTING MY PASSWORD!!!!!!!! FIX THIS ISSUE ASAP PLEASE… CARSALES SND BIKESALES BOTH ### 1/5 — Terrible Rebrand *2025-08-26, version 5.17.0* I use the app several times per week. Got a little lost when it suddenly went blue and the bike looked more like a car. We know you’re a part of the Carsales group, no need to confuse users with this ugly and pointless rebranding. Please revert the apps to distinct icons, it’s actually useful when they’re easily identifiable. ### 1/5 — Gone backwards - please de-spam this! *2025-08-23* This app has been functioning well for years, but now has become so bloated with irrelevant and invasive ads for other things that the user experience is terrible. Every time the feed comes across something with a video, the scrolling glitches and drives me crazy. Please strip this back to what it was. LESS = MORE The filters and search functions are enough to help people find what they are looking for without your (un)helpful suggestions. ( update years later) this app just gets worse. The colour change to blue is a terrible idea and now confuses the two platforms, this once nimble and efficient app is just bloated and full of spam. It was once my go-to source for motorcycle information, but now I just avoid it. ### 1/5 — Don’t change the colours of your apps. *2025-08-19, version 5.17.0* Please don’t change the colours of your apps. That’s how I distinguish between these apps. If they’re all the same colour, because I have them grouped together (like other people I know do), I’m constantly going to be clicking into the wrong app. Please reconsider. ### 1/5 — Selling ? No messages come through at all *2025-06-16, version 5.13.0* No point you don’t receive any buyer messages ### 1/5 — Why why why *2025-03-30, version 5.7.0* Why change something that worked and worked well. The new app is terrible and the desktop version via the web is even worse. Why change it. On the web I now have to log in to sort my search results by most recent first, EVEN THOUGH I’M LOGGED IN ALREADY. Seriously, change it back ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Just an amazing app *2025-10-23, version 5.21.1* There’s nothing else to say ### 5/5 — Motorcycle *2025-06-07, version 5.12.0* Braaap ST250 ### 5/5 — Bike Sales *2025-05-18, version 5.10.0* Very handy to have such a variety of bikes, their prices and specs. ### 5/5 — Bike sales *2025-05-14, version 5.10.0* Bike App ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2025-02-08, version 5.4.0* Bikesales is easy to operate specially for an older bike rider like myself but would like to see all adds with a minimum of say like 5 photos, but yes team, keep up the good work. 5 out of 5 thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍 ### 5/5 — Bike sales *2024-11-03, version 4.62.0* Bike sales are Awesome 🎶👍🎶👍 ### 5/5 — Great app to find any bike. *2024-08-31, version 4.58.0* Easy to use with all the features. ### 5/5 — The best app *2024-03-31* I think that everyone should down load this all because it has helped me get Ideas on what to buy and what not to buy and also you can sell things to and it's all very nicely laid out I think that everyone will like this app because it gives you so many options and that's what I like about it I love it so so so much that I have been on it for atleast a week trying to find the perfect bike or buggy and I found both in like TWO DAYS!!!! It's amazing Definitely 5 star rating 10/10 score I love this app so much 🤩😍 ### 5/5 — Only app you will need *2024-03-09, version 4.48.0* Best app for checking out what’s on the market.
