### 2/5 — Auth issues

*2025-05-17, version 4.0.4*

The last couple of releases have entirely broken Auth issues forcing users to login every time they launch the app. Roll the Auth API back team, this thing is BROKE.

### 1/5 — Terrible customer service

*2023-02-09, version 3.5.7*

Multiple emails sent to report an issue, no one is replying.

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2021-10-28, version 3.5.6*

My property seems to disappear frequently off the app, unable to click to see details etc
In fact says it doesn’t even exist according to the app

### 1/5 — Crashes on launch on iOS 15

*2021-10-19, version 3.5.6*

I’ve tried opening the app on 4 different devices running iOS 15 and it crashes on launch on every one of them. Even the website managed to crash mobile safari which is quite an accomplishment. Needs a lot of work to get it stable otherwise it’s just worthless.

### 1/5 — Crashes on load

*2021-10-02, version 3.5.6*

App keeps crashing trying to start it. Deleting and downloading again doesn’t help. Months later tried and still the same problem.

### 3/5 — Won’t Open anymore

*2021-09-01, version 3.5.6*

App was immensely handy during the time I was house hunting. Cheers. 

Some months on, the App appears to now instantly crash whenever I attempt to open it. Tried deleting the app, rebooting the iPad and reinstalling a few times. Still crashes. 

Oh well… Having since purchased a place and that I’m no longer in the market to buy, will now just let the app go.

UPDATE: If I temporarily disable Pi-hole (Ad tracking server blocker) on the network, the app will open. I think I’ll keep this app off of my iPad permanently. I object to my info going to third party ad tracking conglomerates.

### 1/5 — Only opens after multiple attempts.

*2021-07-30, version 3.5.6*

Hey developers, not sure if you’re reading the latest reviews or not, but this app crashes every time it’s attempted to be loaded. It finally opens after 10 - 20 retries. It’s been going on for months now. 

Really would have thought an update to fix this would have been pushed through by now.

### 1/5 — Instant crash

*2021-06-05, version 3.5.6*

Won’t even launch. iPad Pro 12.9.

### 2/5 — App keeps crashing

*2021-04-26, version 3.5.6*

App keeps crashing when trying to open it.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-04-20, version 3.5.6*

App crashes on every launch. Doesn’t work at all.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2021-02-25, version 3.5.5*

The app crashes when trying to launch and this latest update appears to be the worst yet.

### 1/5 — The worst!

*2020-12-12, version 3.5.4*

No sorting. No property type selection. No location selections. Houses displayed are not within price range specified. Eg max price of $500k shows homes well over a million. 
App is useless and now getting uninstalled.

### 1/5 — Easily manipulated data?

*2020-12-09, version 3.5.4*

Accuracy reliabilty trust has slumped due to ability by vendors and agents to adjust at their will?

### 3/5 — Crashing

*2020-11-27, version 3.5.4*

Suddenly app started crashing on iPad Air.

### 1/5 — No options

*2020-09-04, version 3.5*

No option to sort by property type, size, etc. Just a price range and area.

### 1/5 — Load

*2020-08-21, version 3.5*

If you can’t load the update then how can you get the faster load time etc.

### 1/5 — Bugs out

*2025-07-28, version 4.0.6*

Major problems with this app, it keeps closing when you try to use it. Please fix asap

### 1/5 — Impossible to use

*2024-09-23, version 3.5.7*

Half the screen is cut off by the Dynamic Island in the newer iPhones, the favourites button doesn’t work, the search function brings up only Auckland addresses, the list goes on. Completely non functional.

### 1/5 — Budget

*2024-09-20, version 3.5.7*

Can’t zoom. Can’t click “back” without defaulting to landing page at beginning. This could be so much better!

### 1/5 — Absolutely unusable

*2024-07-21, version 3.5.7*

Great data und the app, but one you select a property, you need to kill the app to get back out because the back button just doesn’t work. Good luck marking a property as a favourite or removing it. I don’t know who tests these apps.

### 1/5 — Hopeless

*2024-07-20, version 3.5.7*

Uses old data, never updated and zero customer service. This app is a waste of space.

### 1/5 — App Update Needed

*2024-05-26, version 3.5.7*

Cannot see our house anymore. It’s just land. This app seriously needs an update!!

### 1/5 — Haven’t moved on from the iPhone 8 era

*2024-03-13, version 3.5.7*

Extremely difficult to move from a property detail screen as the back and share buttons (as well as the search bar) are obscured by the notch / Dynamic Island. 

Real apps know about safe area insets. Just sayin’.

### 1/5 — Very slow

*2024-03-07, version 3.5.7*

For some reason 😮‍💨 it become very slow , after updated the iOS

### 1/5 — Needs updating

*2023-06-02, version 3.5.7*

Literally cannot search or go back from a property on iPhone 14 Pro as the app hasn’t been updated to work around the dynamic island/notch. You can’t tap in the search field with the island in the middle of it. Absolutely useless.

### 1/5 — Never gets updated

*2023-03-17, version 3.5.7*

Full of bugs and never gets an update, seriously how hard is it?

### 5/5 — Faint print

*2018-10-09, version 2.2.1*

### 5/5 — No zoom on photos

*2018-07-12, version 2.1*

Good app but can’t zoom in on the photos.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2017-09-16, version 1.5.2*

I love this app. I think it is invaluable and potentially the best thing out there when it comes to finding a basic value a property. During the time it was launched I have crossed checked it's estimated value with the final realised sale price, and whilst not always accurate it has been very close to the purchase price, most often. 10 out of 10... in my humble opinion..

### 5/5 — Great to see constant improvements

*2017-09-14, version 1.5.2*

Excellent.  Great to see constant improvements.

### 4/5 — Useful app

*2024-10-05, version 4.0.0*

Really great info! After upgrading to a pro version of the iPhone 14 with the Dynamic Island, I struggle to use the back button. Would be awesome if that can be worked on!

### 4/5 — Back button doesn’t work

*2022-12-27, version 3.5.7*

Good app. Can’t push the back button on iPhone though. Have to exit app to search again. Needs to be fixed.

### 3/5 — Inaccessible buttons

*2023-12-05, version 3.5.7*

The buttons at the top of the screen are inaccessible on a iPhone, been that way for over a year. You really need to sort it out
