### 2/5 — age

*2026-08-22*

i’m 17 and i’m unable to use the app and yes it is 18+ but the terms and conditions say “All users who are minors in the jurisdiction in which they reside (generally under the age of 18) must have the permission of, and be directly supervised by, their parent or guardian to use the Services.” so why am i still unable to use it

**Developer response:** The easiest way is to ask your parents or guardians to create your account for you! We can also confirm their permission in other ways, for that email us at info@ecven.com and we'll help you

### 2/5 — Been requesting for two hours

*2026-08-14*

Need to accept requests faster, not very efficient. However if they do accept my mind may change

**Developer response:** The invite system is there for a reason, if you have any issues reach out to us at info@ecven.com!

### 3/5 — Range

*2026-08-10, version 1.7.2*

Decent app bit the only spots near me are 4+ hours away

### 2/5 — Why would you remove it

*2026-07-08*

I’ve been using haze explr for a while now, I’ve put a few decent locations even an untouched mansion however I had downloaded it again today as my phone had reset and logged back in and apparently it’s not available in my country? I’ve been using it with no issue but now I can’t even use the app and it’s useless to me now, please fix this issue in Australia

**Developer response:** The app should be still available in Australia, please reach out to us at info@ecven.com so we can look into this!:)

### 5/5 — best exploring app

*2026-07-02, version 1.7.1*

this happens the best for exploring all kinds of stuff tells you if it’s super dangerous or if it’s a walk in the park good out definitely recommend.

### 5/5 — Haze Explr

*2026-07-02*

100% Accurate and Reliable App, everything that’s posted within the app is amazing please keep going never remove this app. Also for anyone else who sees and loves bandos this app is for you but keep in mind there’s not always bandos around you 🤷🏾. Anyway 5 stars or 10 automatically. Wishing this app Great Success.

**Developer response:** Maybe not 100% accurate, but we definitely do our best:P and we'll keep going🫡 wish you fun adventures & great memories!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-02, version 1.7.0*

I love this app. My friend showed it to me and we have been using it a lot recently. Some existing locations led us to an area that hasn’t even been marked yet. Definitely going to keep using this for a long time.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-07-01*

Great community, really good for finding locations with friends. Would recommend! 👍

**Developer response:** Thank you!!

### 5/5 — Best app

*2026-06-25, version 1.6.12*

I’ve tried a lot of urbexing before and couldn’t find the right app until I found haze explr

### 4/5 — Good, but could be better

*2026-06-15*

Been using this for a while and I like it but a few tweaks could be made. Firstly there is no way to mark locations as done unless you add a memo there, meaning it’s hard to filter spots you have been to and ones you haven’t. Also memos you can only make a small radius away from you, meaning I have no way of marking spots as done if they are on the other side of the city.

**Developer response:** Memos are deliberately meant to be like that, but we're planning to add a feature where you can mark places as done just for yourself! We'll add it as soon as we can🫡

### 5/5 — Goated

*2026-06-14, version 1.6.12*

Such a goated app, spots everywhere I have houses makes it so so so much more fun to explore rather than struggling to find some.

### 5/5 — Haze

*2026-06-12, version 1.6.12*

Probably one of the best apps out there there’s so many spots at least in my area and this is my personal favor finding new spots

### 5/5 — Best app for exploring abandoned places

*2026-05-31*

I have tried multiple other apps, they have all either not given many places or just places that were too far away. I haven’t been able to go to many places but the ones I have been to are great. I would recommend this app to anyone who loves to do urbex

**Developer response:** Thank you♥♥♥

### 4/5 — Vibration

*2026-05-30, version 1.6.10*

Great app other than the constant vibrations

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2026-05-30*

Been looking for new places to explore and this app came in handy, have found so many cool places, thank you to whoever made this app 🙂

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 5/5 — App/communities

*2026-05-29, version 1.6.10*

It’s a great and accurate app, I like how you gotta apply to get in so it’s not full of bots. The map is accurate along with the locations

### 4/5 — Absolute cinema

*2026-05-25, version 1.6.10*

9/10 it does a great job for the most part, some pois are a waste of time but you sort of get used to it and it becomes great. I’ve found and explored some of the greatest places I’ve been to with this app

### 1/5 — 1 star until i get let in smh😭

*2026-07-08, version 1.7.1*

Bruh just let me make a account atp💔🤦

### 1/5 — Can’t even sign up for an account

*2026-06-17, version 1.6.12*

Account sign up doesn’t work, can’t even use the app

### 1/5 — 1 star until I’m allowed in the app

*2026-04-24, version 1.6.9*

I have 600 urbex / obscure places i want to share with the community. Let me in.😭

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2025-12-29, version 1.6.8*

First of all, it sucks that this is what this hobby has come to. I downloaded simply to spy and see if my favorite locations are about to be blown by careless people. Just handing out abandoned places like it’s nothing, increasing the vandalism and foot traffic to these places. Anyone actually in the hobby knows how awful that is. You have to “unlock” locations which I guess is a cool feature except people post empty fields, demolished locations and open businesses just so they can “unlock” more actual doable spots for themselves. Nothing more obnoxious than “unlocking” an empty field. The whole concept of this app just to give out coordinates to anyone and their brother is just plain stupid. I’m just glad my minty unknown location hasn’t been posted to Haze to be blown up and ultimately destroyed.

### 1/5 — Taking spots down

*2025-12-25, version 1.6.8*

It shouldn’t be a vote to take places down the app owners should actually review when people report places people continuously break into a developing community center in my city that is on this map I hope this app gets taken down tbh

### 1/5 — Low Security

*2025-11-02, version 1.6.6*

They are snooping through your email contacts and messages without letting you get an account. Won’t recommend to others. Date 11/02/2025

### 1/5 — Not been accepted

*2025-07-09, version 1.6.1*

I sent my request 5 days ago , I got a weird email that was labeled as a transaction from them which just said they will reach out soon but they haven’t

### 1/5 — …????

*2025-06-02, version 1.6.0*

trying to make an account and it says i need an invite…every time i click on it, it refreshes and goes back to the home screen?y internet connection is full bars too.

### 1/5 — can’t use it

*2025-04-17*

You can only use the app when you create an account, to create an account you have to email them just to let you get an account.

**Developer response:** Hey, there's reasons why it was designed this way. We've been adding new features that help protect locations so the invite system will probably be phased out later on, but it still helps. And if anyone is having issues with making an account, just reach out to info@ecven.com and we'll help!:)

### 5/5 — Good app but rare places

*2026-08-07*

It’s a really good app and has helped me find some good places to adventure to but the only thing is that there is a lack of places in my area(rgv) so I don’t know if I havent unlocked them yet or if there hasn’t been discovered yet. Another thing is that it keeps on giving me location in San Antonio and places like that but idk if that’s related to there being no places here. 
I have contributed to this app tho and put a few locations of mine tgat ive found. Good app overall tho

**Developer response:** Thank you!! If you want we can dig into whether that's a bug or not, just drop us a message at info@ecven.com and we'll take a look:)

### 5/5 — Haze

*2026-07-26, version 1.7.2*

I really like the idea of the app, but I never got the invite..

### 5/5 — Greatest app for urbex

*2026-07-25*

This is so good it has every abandoned location near me most apps don’t have them this one does becuase people can submit them and it’s just really good

**Developer response:** 💜

### 5/5 — Simply Great

*2026-07-25, version 1.7.2*

Best app out there for finding and sharing spots hands down and the developers do an amazing job with the app. Been using it since the early days and have nothing bad to say!

### 5/5 — Great app!!!

*2026-07-25, version 1.7.2*

This app is amazing for finding abandoned locations around you!!!

### 5/5 — Best Urbex app

*2026-07-25, version 1.7.2*

I love this app it’s amazing, it gives locations. I like that you can comment.

### 5/5 — Goated

*2026-07-25, version 1.7.2*

Love this app, awesome how certain locations are level locked to stop vandalism. Amazing way to make memories with friends.

### 5/5 — Best urbex app ever

*2026-07-11, version 1.7.1*

10/10

### 5/5 — perfection.

*2026-07-11, version 1.7.1*

this app is seriously the best urbex app. i love the tiers for unlocking buildings because it helps to not have people destroying the spot. but, i find that the rejected location feature is often times annoying because if you put a nature spot it almost always gets rejected even though it's an option to put a natural sight. either way, this app is amazing.

### 5/5 — joan (joa)

*2026-07-10, version 1.7.1*

GOOD.
