### 3/5 — Favourite & Listening

*2025-12-23, version 5.14.8*

Maybe considering enhance Favourite icon and to notify giver to de-list their items upon collected, in a way to declutter your database and also for recipients.

### 4/5 — GoodHood:)

*2024-02-26, version 5.6.5*

I enjoy this platform, but feel it needs more publicity for more to come on board. Hope we persevere with spreading GoodHood so we eventually come to a level of participation where we truly meet physically in the neighborhood to do things together oftener.

### 3/5 — Checking is Apple ID still working for login

*2023-11-03, version 5.4.5*

Checking is Apple ID login still available as it isn’t working after 4 weeks of offline… just tried a couple of times and not able to login

### 4/5 — Just some feedback to the team making this

*2023-04-24, version 4.9.8*

Amazing job on the app , that is definitely true , but there is one function i feel that can have improvements. 

Maybe for the " posts " function , can all posts be editable and deletable ? I realised only " notices" posts captions can be edited and deleted but not regular posts. 

Sometimes i want to update on certain things so i want to edit information to be more accurate but i cant . So now i have a bunch of irrelevant posts from the past that i cant delete . 

Simply put : 
- make all posts editable 
- make all posts deletable 

That is all :) 

This app really let me connect with those in the neighbourhood ☺️

### 4/5 — Notifications still not working

*2022-07-20, version 4.3.4*

I started using this app a year ago. Surprised that notifications on iOS is still not functional. I checked that Notifications permissions were enabled. As I was giving something away this week, it was inconvenient to arrange with person to collect item

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-05-05, version 4.1.2*

This is a lovely initiative, I have learnt a lot of new recipes! However, the app could have a function for neighbours to hold meetings or gatherings to share their food!

### 5/5 — Convenient for freecycling and getting to know neighbours

*2022-05-05, version 4.1.2*

Good app to get to know neighbours, can be improved for sure, but good enough for now. Team is very responsive to suggestions. I know of various freecycling groups online but this app helps you connect to nearby neighbours so its very convenient & can help one another too! 🙂

### 5/5 — Excellent app to bond the neighbourhood

*2022-01-21, version 3.9.4*

This application bonds neighbours together just like back in the days with the kampong spirit where anyone can help anyone direct

Whether you need some extra muscles moving an item, or joining the neighbours for a hiking trip, to contributing used goods to someone who needs it more. 

Been recommending to my pals.

### 2/5 — React Native hint

*2021-10-08, version 3.8.4*

Before load more, in FlatList, check and store a state of the scroll offset. So that it won't scroll back to top after load more

### 5/5 — A good way to know your Neigbours

*2021-07-29, version 3.7.5*

A lively app that lets you know what’s happening in your neighbourhood. Meet people you never knew were near you. Find out what’s happening around you. Very good indeed.

### 4/5 — Good apps to have

*2021-05-24, version 3.4.0*

Know your neighbour better, create great bonding and community.

### 5/5 — Amazing app with a great initiative to connect the community together.

*2021-05-17, version 3.4.0*

Able to view a lot of neighbours residing nearby and it is heartwarming to see people helping one another, it could be as simple as giving advice etc. I must say, GoodHood is really great in forging bonds and building community support. 🥰

Also, requested and received free mask earlier on from a kind soul. This is legit! Now this is my go-to app donating my items or trying my luck to request for #freestuff ha-ha! 😄

### 5/5 — Great app to connect neighbours

*2021-05-09, version 3.4.0*

Abit slower on my iPhone 6, but works like a charm on my newer iPhone. Looking forward to getting to know my neighbours in a safe n secure way. Thank you!

### 1/5 — Unable to login

*2023-12-29, version 5.5.3*

I signed up long ago when goodhood was just launched. Decided to try the app again, but I am unable to login. Apple login doesn’t work. Google logins and my phone number are not linked. So I don’t know which Google address I used? Did I even login using Google previously? No password reset option. You must also use WhatsApp to use this app.

Update: I did login via sms - just need to pretend I don’t have a Singapore number then the UI would provide a bypass.

### 1/5 — Completely user unfriendly app

*2022-09-07, version 4.4.7*

The interfaces keep changing and it’s not improved at all. Always confused opening this app. Idk where to navigate/to find where are people sharing items around my area. Seriously, this app needs a revamp and a test with users before it should even be out for use!

### 1/5 — App crashed

*2022-01-31, version 3.9.4*

Was using this app for a wile and on off it has some loading issues. This morn it crashed on me wen a neighbour contacted me to collect some stuff from me. I cld not reply her to let her noe my unit number and cld not infm her where to meet. The app cld not load the chat and after multiply tries (even deete n redownload the app) i still cannot access the app! N i was not able to meet up with the neighbour as we dun haf each other’s contact! Pls resolve!!!

### 1/5 — Not comfortable using app with required mandatory access to singpass

*2021-09-26, version 3.8.3*

This app recently made it mandatory to use singpass to collect your birth date, address or other personal information etc before you can post anything which make me uncomfortable to use it .

### 1/5 — Auto close

*2021-05-02, version 3.3.0*

App does not work on my phone keeps on closing within seconds
Giving up soon

### 1/5 — Can’t even register, crap UX.

*2021-03-05, version 2.9.1*

Nowhere to get app support so I have to leave this as a review. When I get the SMS-OTP and enter it, nothing happens. When I close then open the app to try again, it tells me my phone number is taken… so I’m stuck in app limbo. Crap UX.

### 1/5 — Alternative to signup

*2020-04-05*

Besides Facebook, please provide other option to signup. Thanks.

**Developer response:** Dear CoA112,

Thank you for your feedback.
This was a deliberate decision to keep fake users and trolls out of our platform.
Unfortunately, some real users who don't have Facebook would also be kept out, but until there are better options that will serve the greater audience on GoodHood, we will be allowing only Facebook logins for now.

Do let us know if you hear of any better options to balance ease of signing up with user authenticity (including a higher rate of having profile pictures).

Else, our apologies that GoodHood may not be able to meet your specific needs at the moment (like whatsapp allowing signing up using email).

### 2/5 — Feels very transactional

*2023-07-13, version 5.1.2*

When i use the app , i feel as if people only use the app mainly to sell or buy stuff and not to actually create bonds with neighbours 😔 If they only want to buy and sell stuff, they should just use apps like shopee 🙄

### 2/5 — Not as useful as Olio

*2023-04-22, version 4.9.8*

A lot more sharing of info rather than actual sharing of items

### 2/5 — Subpar UI Quality

*2022-01-31, version 3.9.4*

One of the worst not-so user-friendly UI. Pretty laggy and takes some time to background refresh.

### 5/5 — Second life

*2025-10-18, version 5.13.19*

I’m so happy to find so many users here who are willing to give my food / items a second life, even for some of the smallest stuff.

### 5/5 — Great app for sharing

*2024-08-24, version 5.11.8*

You can get to have free food and things including events in the community

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2023-12-20, version 5.5.2*

Great app to connect with your neighbours and build the warm Kampung spirit in sg once again!

### 5/5 — Good hood indeed

*2023-11-08, version 5.4.5*

Love the way this platform allows ppl the means to pass stuff around - one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. 😊

### 5/5 — super helpful for free-cycling and asking for help

*2023-07-11, version 5.1.0*

i feel very safe with the singpass verification because i know i am talking to people who are verified to be living in my neighbourhood.

so far, everyone i have talked to is very friendly & even managed to get some free stuff yay

### 5/5 — Great app to connect with neighbours

*2023-07-11, version 5.1.0*

Was trying to look for neighbours to help me water my plant when I’m overseas and I managed to find a neighbour who lived nearby that was willing to help me ❤️

Love the concept of the app. Really does feel like a digital kampung.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2022-08-05, version 4.3.7*

Great way to bring back the kampung spirit n foster neighbourliness. +1!!

### 5/5 — My whole family using this gov supported app

*2022-08-03, version 4.3.7*

My sis uses to give prelove clothes and ask my mom to use, she than uses it to collect rescued bread, than my mom force me to use. I started chatting with my neighbours. Now my whole family using it. Wife loves it as she enjoys giving my Lego n Star Wars collection away -.-

### 5/5 — Great app with a great purpose

*2022-07-23, version 4.3.4*

I just started using this app and already in love with message behind this app. So convenient to give items away and connect with neighbours. It deserves lots of awareness within our community.

### 5/5 — Great concept for Singapore

*2022-05-05, version 4.1.2*

Just got introduced to this app because I like to give away stuff, throwing is so wasteful. Really liek the Singpass verification, makes me feel so much safer. Kudos to the team that did this!
