### 3/5 — Meh after the last update

*2025-11-26, version 8.0.0*

The latest update has taken away the ability to back out of your page to the last page. Instead it autofills what it thinks you want to look at. For instance, if you pull up a collection say the Heritage Collection and look at a crossbody purse you can’t go back to look at the other purses in that collection it then takes you to purse>crossbody purses instead of collection>Heritage.
Maybe I don’t want to look at ALL crossbody purses and just want to see all of the Heritage Collection purses. I don’t like it because now I have to go back to collections>heritage and then look at each purse individually and do this on every one. It’s a waste of time.

### 4/5 — Please allow zooming in on product

*2024-03-09, version 7.2.0*

Not a real benefit to use app.

### 3/5 — Please fix bugs

*2023-06-24, version 7.2.0*

Please fix this app it’s hard to create an account and then sign into said account so can you please, please check this app

### 2/5 — Love the bags, Hate the app!

*2023-01-02, version 7.1.0*

Where is the back button?🤔 The app constantly crashes while using it. When I finally add something to cart and attempt to check out it my cart is empty. This is very frustrating. DB you are losing money.

### 2/5 — App keeps jumping back to home page

*2022-12-08, version 7.0.0*

Everytime I go into the app, no matter what purse I am reviewing, it jumps back to the home page.  I have an iPhone 11, IOS 16.1.2.  It’s very frustrating so I close out of the app, I don’t want to even look anymore.  Hope you can get it fixed.  Thanks.

### 2/5 — App continuously crashes

*2022-12-04, version 7.0.0*

Happy to see D&B had an app. Started using it the past week. Every time I use the app crashes. Very frustrating when shopping. I hope you’re able to fix the problem.

### 3/5 — No back button?

*2022-10-02, version 7.0.0*

Maybe it’s me, but when I’m shopping and select an item to look at the details, there is no back button. I have to click home and start the search over again and scroll through all the stuff I’ve already looked at to get back where I was. Very frustrating. Had to stop. Hopefully I’m just missing where it is. Otherwise I can’t use this app.

### 2/5 — App Issues

*2022-07-15, version 7.0.0*

Can’t place order due to this app malfunctioning it jumps and have to start over several times. Can’t update my info, place and order. What’s up with it, very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Stay on the web

*2022-05-16, version 6.3.0*

This app is useless, if I have to log in every time-I might as well continue to use the web, especially since it looks just like the actual web version anyways🙄

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2022-05-15, version 6.3.0*

Love Dooney bags but dislike their app and website.   Both constantly stall out and have to shut down from website or close the app and restart.  For expensive as these bags are, I’m surprised by how awful their website/app are.

### 1/5 — App crashes and is always freezing

*2022-04-17, version 6.3.0*

By far the worst app I have ever used. I am an avid buyer when it comes to Dooney and Bourke. For weeks already this app has been nothing but problems and issues. I have deleted itNumerous times reinstalled it and it still freezes crashes. Having to add everything back to my cart just to have it crash or freeze again. I have all the required updates apple keeps putting out. IT needs to figure out the issues so that I can continue to shop with out having such issues.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2022-03-31, version 6.3.0*

Keeps crashing

### 1/5 — ANNOYING

*2022-02-27, version 6.3.0*

It keeps knocking you out of your search and you have to start over and over. THE APP NEEDS MAINTANENCE

### 1/5 — Worst retail app available.

*2022-02-10, version 6.3.0*

Only one filter option at a time?! No where to save favorites? No “similar” options? Live Chat doesn’t work?! C’mon man, you’re making bank on purses! Fork over a little to your IT dept and app developers and revamp the app.

### 3/5 — Force closes

*2022-01-26, version 6.3.0*

It keeps taking me to the home page.  I was in the middle of typing out a review and it closed.   In the middle of registering a bag it closed.  Its been doing this for awhile. No matter what you are doing it closes out and takes you back to the home page.

### 1/5 — Very mad at them

*2021-12-01, version 6.2.0*

I seriously very mad with them. I placed an order 7months ago on different occasions, for Match, April and May. They didn’t removed the money, they waited until 1st December before they removed a thousand dollars in my account. Please help me judge if they are been fair to me. I have to delete they app from my phone. Buy Dooney and Burke.

Please fix this app so it’s easier to shop.  Right now I won’t buy anything with this app because it’s so horrible.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Where is the back button?

*2026-04-13, version 8.0.1*

There is no back button in the app, makes it hard to shop the app. I see the app has updated several times with no fixes. When is it gonna be fixed?

### 1/5 — Love Dooney, Hate the App

*2025-09-27, version 8.0.0*

On both my iPhone & my iPad, the apps refuse to recognize my established account. The customer service bot does not recognize my issue (‘Can’t log into my account’) so I delete the apps, log in a few days later, try again. Basta!

### 1/5 — Can no longer use…

*2023-03-22, version 7.1.0*

After my phone updated, I went on the app and the app itself says there is an “update available” and that “the app no longer supports this version.” I go to update the app but it’s already updated to the latest version. Have uninstalled since I can no longer use it.

### 1/5 — Glitchy and keeps logging out

*2022-12-02, version 7.0.0*

Latest version is glitchy and keeps logging out and restarting

### 1/5 — Where is the back button?

*2022-12-02, version 7.0.0*

If I am searching through a collection, and click on a specific bag, I’m stuck there. There is no way to go back to my search? You just have to go home and start the search over again? Not conducive to browsing at all.

### 1/5 — Unusable!

*2022-10-22, version 7.0.0*

This app is unusable! It keeps jumping back to the home page all by itself!  So frustrating! Their website is not much better, but at least it stays on the page you’re on. When you’re finished looking at something it doesn’t return you to where you were in the filtered list, but at the beginning of the list - but it at least let’s you stay on a page!

### 1/5 — App restarts

*2022-09-14, version 7.0.0*

After you make a selection on how you want to search (categories) and start to scroll, the app takes you back to the Home Screen. Please fix!

### 1/5 — APP ISSUES

*2022-08-22, version 7.0.0*

While I would love to purchase my gift at Dooney & Bourke bag ever, you can’t get thru viewing options because the app CONSTANTLY refreshes the page you’re on. I wouldn’t even feel comfortable making a purchase on this app for fear it would refresh & double charge me!

With that being said I just may take a pass for now.
I’m sure this would be an awesome app if it actually worked.

### 1/5 — The Most Frustrating App

*2022-07-30, version 7.0.0*

The app is HORRIBLE. It crashes every minute. Also, the search function is bad: when I sort or filter results, then click on an item to view details, the results become un-filtered/un-sorted, so I have to re-filter and re-sort the results all over again. I love Dooney’s products, but the app puts a big stain on Dooney’s reputation.

### 1/5 — Glitchy - Better of on Web Page

*2022-07-01, version 6.3.0*

The app continually takes me back to the homepage when I’m browsing. It’s very frustrating to have to search again, reapply filters, and find my spot. Also, the app never “remembers me” when I log in.

### 5/5 — App problems

*2022-06-03, version 6.3.0*

When trying to place an order, the page jumps out of the ordering page and I have to start over again, many times, so can not up date my information either, this is very frustrating, please fix the problem, this has been going on for much too long.

### 5/5 — My Christmas present

*2020-12-27, version 6.1*

My husband purchased my first Downey & Bourke bag and wallet as a Christmas present. I love them. Very nice choice with the bag and wallet. Love the products very well made.

### 5/5 — Used to work

*2020-12-06, version 6.0.3*

Now it just gets stuck spinning on the opening page and that’s it. App support just tries to open the app and guess what - it’s stuck. Please fix and I will update rating.

*2020-04-20, version 5.2.0*

I am The Proud Owner Of 6 Dooney&Bourke Pocketbooks, and 3 wallets. I have purchased many top of the line handbags in my 60 years on earth, I find Dooney&Bourke to be most fitting for me! The Nylon bags are to die for so light weight almost like your carrying nothing! I highly recommend them!

### 5/5 — In love with Pebble

*2020-04-08, version 5.2.0*
