Great idea for an app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Clunky app & poor attempt to compete with Airbnb *2023-08-29, version 9.1.1* Had high hopes for this app, but just couldn’t get the fact that Airbnb is a much better app and user experience. Listings are limited and the information and images provided are sun-standard. I hope the app can be improved in the future as the concept is cool. For now… definitely would t recommend this to anyone. ### 1/5 — Definitely scam-y and a terrible app to go along with it *2023-02-17, version 9.1.1* I got an account a couple years ago when i first heard of this and quickly saw that it was a scam — there were only a few postings and they all had similar language, I reached out to a few hosts with no response, then I posted my own fake listing. I came back to it today out of curiosity, and as many of the “real” reviews state, the app fails to let you log in lol. I got it working on web after some struggles, and there are more listings now and they seem more realistic, but none of the “popular listings” have reviews, and I went to book a popular one which had a notification saying I was lucky, it was usually booked, but of course it was showing as available every day into the future. My fake listing was still up and had no interactions. It’s a laughable claim they make that this a product with “over 1 million users”. So a it’s a poorly made app for a poorly run scam. Kinda funny to browse around I guess. But yeah, don’t give them your money lol. ### 1/5 — Ödeme iptali zorluğu *2022-12-05, version 9.1.1* Merhaba Uygulamayı indirdim ve aylık ödeme yaparak üzere hesabımı güncelledim. Fakat iptal etmek istediğimde inanılmaz zorluk çektim. Web sitesinde ve uygulamada hiç bir yerde subscription vs gibi bir bölüm yok varsa da iyi saklamışlar dolayısıyla kredi kartınızı eklemden önce iyi düşünün . ### 1/5 — Tokenlerimi çekebilirmiyim ? *2022-10-18, version 9.1.0* Holiday swapdan token çekimi yapabilirmiyim ? ### 1/5 — Yalan *2022-09-25, version 9.0.9* 200 dolar olayı tamamiyle yalan boşuna indirmeyin ### 1/5 — YALAN *2022-09-23, version 9.0.9* Hediye 200 dolar olayı tamamıyla yalan. Boşuna indirmeyin ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-07-22, version 9.0.8* App doesn’t work after downloading. ### 1/5 — Holiday Swap *2022-07-11, version 9.0.8* Es verdad con esos tokens que ganas puedes reservar casas ??? Porque yo reservo Nadir mi contesta mi envían una notificación de que está reservada i nada no te mandan la dirección ni nada ### 1/5 — mala *2022-07-11, version 9.0.8* los 200$ como se consiguen? publicidad engañosa ### 1/5 — Useless *2022-05-08, version 9.0.4* No way to login ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing App! *2023-09-19, version 9.1.1* Great app!
