Fixed

New version is great! Helped me get out of my lease and save my rent within one day

Terrible!

Doesn’t work at all! I posted the sublease add, received an email from someone interested and when I tried to reply to the interested person, the app didn’t work. It deleted my profile. I did it all over again with photos etc and AGAIN I couldn’t respond to people interested. And I couldn’t find my profile once again.
So don’t waste your time! It’s a completely useless app. It simply DOES NOT WORK!!!!

STILL completely broken

I commented a bit ago about how the interface was completely broken, and they responded saying they rolled it back to fix it. It was a different version and some interface bugs were gone, but the app is even more broken than before. Cannot sign in with email anymore, and there is no forgot password button for migrating an email account to phone number. Every time you open the app you have to click through the introduction screens and “you’re protected” again before being able to use anything else. The message inbox doesn’t load correctly; all the messages appear from one random name of a different user (which sometimes changes; presumable because I’m getting messages from new people but can’t access them). And some are just eternally loading without saying who they’re from. Trying to update a listing deletes or duplicates it, needing to put all the information in all over again. Absolutely terrible experience using this app. Clearly it wasn’t just the one designer they fired who is the problem. Additionally, it always lists the price higher than I put in!!! Why is it doing this?? I put in one number, even go back to fix it, but it always appears about $50 more expensive on the listing!

Broken interface

Even after reverting to “stable version,” updating a listing erases all the information you put in, so you have to re-enter everything and re-upload photos. For some reason the list price is higher than I entered, even after trying to redo this. Annoying intro screen pops up every time you go to the search tab even after clicking through it each time.

Broken app

Garbage design. Keyboard comes up when making listing and can’t be hidden, permanently hiding the submit or next button. Tried everything. Can’t be fixed. Literally unusable. Clearly designer never even bothered to test it.

Response from developer

We just fired our designer and reverted to a stable version. This will not happen again. Thank you for letting us know!

Horrible

This app isn’t developed well. I tried several times and it just doesn’t publish what I want and I cannot even delete the listings once they are published. What is the matter with these people don’t release an app that is terribly not ready.

Helpful!

Gives great opportunities to find housing in IV

Can’t Edit Profile

Like it says in the title… can’t edit profile. If I try, app crashes and freezes. Pretty limited selection of people on the app so far, but hopefully that changes — I’d LOVE to have an alternative to Facebook.

Ideal Features:
- need to be able to input whether you’re looking for male or female roommates
- Budget range
- Make more activities selectable

Life saver

I was having trouble finding people to cover my lease and housing helper was able to connect me to someone who fit in great with the rest of my roommates in just a matter of days

Speedy and centralized

I downloaded this app because I was looking for housing. I was able to browse through multiple listings and the app and user interface were very intuitive and easy to use and speedy. What is my biggest priorities in life is speed and I was able to find and lease house extremely quickly. 10 out of 10 would recommend
