### 2/5 — Unresponsive app

*2024-09-27, version 2.5.7*

It won’t let me remove or change my profile image. It keeps buffering, I’ve left the app open for a few minutes on several occasions but it never loads when I upload a photo.

### 2/5 — Lack of security

*2024-06-07*

The app works fine, but it is not possible to lock it with Face ID or even a code. This seems a very poor design choice considering that with the app you can enter the apartment.

### 3/5 — Change language

*2024-04-20*

How can i change language to english!?

### 1/5 — Worse than useless

*2023-07-06*

Check-in features not working. Actually nothing is working

**Developer response:** Dear olanordmannnn,

Have you tried deleting the app and reinstalling it? Sometimes that can fix issues. If that doesn't work, our support team is ready to help you out.

### 1/5 — Poor communication, avoid Altstetten!

*2023-06-21, version 2.3.8*

The other review is correct - these flats are sweat boxes in the summer. Also their communication is terrible. Once they contacted me to ask about a repair in the flat from the previous tenant, and sent someone without waiting for a response, so I didn’t know why they came and turned them away. They then told me their housekeeping reported scratches on the kitchen mirror - completely false, with no evidence or verification for me, and they are taking away my deposit and not responding either to my messages or to calls on the helpline. Avoid if you can, they are either inept or scammers!

### 1/5 — Too many problems with the app

*2023-03-28*

The concept of integrating all the services into one device is a great idea, but there are too many little things that doesn’t work consistently. For instance, you’ll be locked out of the door for no reason at all and reaching the city pop service can be a hassle sometimes. Also, if you want to request to book your washer or dryer, it won’t work despite none of the machines are being used. The worst problem is they are aware of this situation and told the residents its been fixed but the problem isn’t solved and delay happens which means the resident wont be using the washer for another couple more days. This is disastrous despite they are aware of the situation and not being able to solve the real problem and informing falsely to the residents that the problem has been fixed. And this continues to happen. Not sure why they can’t fix the little things that really annoy the residents to live in the city pop. They don’t realize how those little things can affect the resident’s daily lives. If those little things wouldn’t annoy me that much, I would have gave 5 stars. Too bad the problem continues to exist and they don’t have the desire to fix the problem.

**Developer response:** Dear Nawc2ya,
We are sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with our app and services. We take all customer feedback seriously and would appreciate the opportunity to resolve the issues you've encountered, specifically with the door lock and laundry booking features.

Our team is actively working on these problems, and we apologize for any inconvenience and miscommunication you've experienced. We understand how these "little things" can impact your daily life, and we're committed to making improvements.

Best regards,
Michal

### 1/5 — Can’t open it on iPad

*2022-11-14*

It can’t be opened on IPad… Stucked in the cover page forever…

**Developer response:** We are sorry to hear that you're having trouble opening our app on your iPad. The app is actually designed for smartphone. Could you please try City Pop App on your iPhone and if everything run smooth it would be really appreciated to change the review score from you :)

### 1/5 — Bad App and Worse Service

*2022-09-07, version 2.2.9*

This business mod is all about taking your money via a cheap bookinf and then failing to fully service you as a paying customer.
DO NOT download and DO NOT book. The studio accommodations are dark sweatboxes with no light, windows or ventilation. Nobody wi reply to you on the app when attempting to communicate. Terrible provider.

### 1/5 — Ok

*2022-04-29*

Ok

**Developer response:** Dear Lulaliebe, we are sorry that you were not aware of the parking rates in Switzerland. 
We assure you that before we propose a price, we carefully analyse the market and do our best to offer a very competitive price. In this specific case I assure you that it is. If in the meantime you have had a chance to notice this and are enjoying our concept we would really appreciate it if you could change your review's rating. 🤗 The whole City Pop team wishes you a wonderful day

### 5/5 — Awesome solution

*2021-11-16*

Needed an apartment in Zurich and easily booked through the App. Location was great even if some building construction were still in progress, but everything was ok and the team behind was really helpful

**Developer response:** Thank you starkamglass93... we're soooo happy you're having a nice experience with our app and you're loving our concept! 
We really appreciate you took the time to review our app! ❤️ 

Have a lovely day.

### 1/5 — App not working

*2025-01-16*

I tried to log onto City Pop app and it does NOT work.  It is forever stuck in reboot mode. Upon attempting to log into the app, it said that I needed to update to the latest version which I did.  But it still does not work.  My phone is also on the latest iOS version so there is no reason why this app shouldn’t be working.   There is definitely a major IT problem at City Pop.

### 1/5 — Lots of Challenges & Opportunities

*2025-01-16*

City Pop is a great concept.  Locations are generally good, but the level of customer service is NOT GOOD.  Examples:
 - App: does not always work for checking in.   Everything is based on the app.  You have a problem, submit a support ticket on the app. This includes such things as apartment not clean upon check in, common halllways dirty thus will track in dirt to apartment, some gym equipment not working, expresso machine does not have PODs that fit the machine available for sale in the same city, 
 - Reponses to issues:  We will alert housekeeping, maintenance, do a search for pods you're on youre own.  Nothing was resolved.   Ref expresso machine, why does City Pop have expresso maching in apartment if no pods are available for purchase in that city??
 - On positive side, location is good for transportation, grocerty stores, short term rental concept is good.

### 1/5 — Citypop MILANO

*2024-12-07*

servizi di pulizia scarsi, sporcizia dappertutto nel corridoio, negli ascensori, piante sporche di polvere.

### 1/5 — Inexistant client service

*2024-12-04*

If you have a request that is not programmed in the application, you won’t get a proper follow up for your request whether is positive or negative. Vey frustrating to communicate only on the app. The telephone assistance is as well very limited if you get the chance of being picked up. Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — They don‘t pay back deposit

*2024-12-03*

The App itself works ok. As a key for the doors I would only use it as a Backup.
But citypop doesn‘t give back the deposit, it is a shame.

### 1/5 — Nicht seriös

*2024-09-01*

Seid Monaten gibt es keine Bilder in der App.
Das öffnen der Türen und co funktioniert nicht richtig.
Sehr schlecht entwickelt

### 1/5 — App non-functional, Support non-existent

*2024-08-22*

I am set to be staying with city pop starting tomorrow - though based off my experience with the app, I am quite concerned. Half of the time, the app won’t even load. When I originally tried to pay for the “pop” it wouldn’t process the payment for close to a month before i was finally able to get through. Being that I need to check in tomorrow and the app won’t even open, I don’t know what to do. Also, there is not a single email or phone number to contact for support, so I had to resort to leaving a poor review on the app as I feel thats the only way I could get through to a real person. If the app were fixed or i received some support I would be happy to change this review from one star - but right now, that seems like a generous score for this useless app.

### 1/5 — Idioma

*2024-06-04*

No sé cómo poner la app en español y no sé cómo comunicar con alguien para una duda

### 1/5 — Error

*2024-04-10, version 2.4.9*

Application is not working on iPhone 15 pro max

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-10-05*

In the lates iOS version 17.0.3 the app does not open a more in my iPhone 15 plus. Let’s hope for a fix…

**Developer response:** Dear macler12,

We're sorry to hear that our app isn't working on your iPhone 15 Plus with iOS 17.0.3. We take this seriously and want to get it fixed for you.

Have you tried deleting the app and reinstalling it? Sometimes that helps. 

Could you tell us more about what happens when you try to open the app? The more details we have, the quicker we can solve the problem.

Warm regards

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2026-05-12, version 3.0.1*

There’s about 50 of us came over to Frankfurt for work, our company found this place and it’s a gem 💎 great little place, next to the river. Clean and very convenient. Staff are very helpful and we been here over two months and there’s no big issues. We will be back here soon no doubt about it 🫰🏽

### 5/5 — Very easy and love city Pop

### 5/5 — Ottimo servizio

*2023-04-20*

Servizio comodissimo. Con un un’oca app si può prenotare in tante città europee. 
Gli appartamenti sono molto comodi e funzionali. 
Ottimo lavoro

### 5/5 — A great experience

*2023-04-20*

I’ve been living in City Pop for 5 months now and I believe the app really simplifies everything. Very smart and helpful. You can actually do everything with the app, from booking the apartment to contact customer support!

### 5/5 — Rizzardini Beatrice

*2023-01-09*

L'app nuova mi piace proprio, ci sono ancora tante cose che possono essere migliorate a mio avviso ma rispetto a prima si vede proprio l'impegno nel migliorare e rendere più confortevole un nuovo concetto abitativo e nel caso di problemi l'assistenza è sempre disponibile a risolvere i problemi.

### 5/5 — A 5-star concept

*2022-06-20*

As many newcomers to Switzerland, I found it difficult to find accommodation, with all the administrative steps to be taken with swiss authorities. CityPop has clearly proved to be the best solution for newcomers (quick booking, booking extension in two clicks…).
The concept and especially the service are of an extreme quality (New flats, great design, with all the services at disposal).
The staff is also friendly and do listen.
I highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Amazing app !

*2022-01-26*

It’s simple and easy to use. I just love it !❤️❤️❤️
Keep up the good work !👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

**Developer response:** Thank you JP ❤️

Your super kind support spurs us on to give our best every day! We are thrilled that you enjoyed our app and our concept! Have a lovely day!

Your City Pop Team
