### 4/5 — Overall it’s good but app lacks features

*2024-08-23, version 2.0.4*

The desktop version lets you delete job postings if for example you added one twice by mistake. The app just allows you to shuffle them around. Overall, it is a good tool. You have to apply for 50 jobs these days to get one call back; I’m not sure how else I would keep track of them all if not for huntr, especially since so many things have nearly identical titles.

### 4/5 — LinkedIn

*2023-12-07, version 2.0.4*

How do you sync with LinkedIn job applications automatically ?

### 4/5 — Desktop🔥, mobile app 😓

*2023-10-02, version 2.0.4*

Huntr is a wonderful tool for organizing your info for job hunting, and putting all important info - JDs, notes, contacts, etc - into one place. 

BUT - the mobile app is only useful for managing existing entries. The browser plug-in is far and away the BEST feature of the platform. With the click of a button, I can create a Huntr entry from the JD I am on. Sadly, that functionality doesn't exist when you are using the LinkedIn, Indeed, Otta, etc apps. 

So kinda stuck on still using a spreadsheet to enter new applications, then transferring to Huntr whenever I land at my desktop.

### 4/5 — Extremely helpful app but missing a search function

*2023-02-04, version 2.0.0*

This app has been a life saver to keep track of my… apps but I found that it’s missing a search function to filter through and find a specific app, in order to change its status.

### 4/5 — Dark-mode please..

*2022-07-20, version 1.0.6*

Just need the dark mode and this would be perfect

### 3/5 — Helpful but not perfect

*2022-02-10, version 1.0.6*

I DIYed my own Huntr board on Trello until I found the Google Chrome extension. Then I was so excited to see there was an app too! Unfortunately, saving a job isn’t always seamless. Sometimes you need all of the job info before it’ll let you save. Entering “Remote” in the location is not an option unless you want Remote, Oregon. And the integration with the job board sites is slow and clunky. I’ll continue to use the web browser version for now.

### 5/5 — Great tool for job search

*2019-12-14, version 1.0.6*

I loved Huntr as soon as I started using their web application and I was really happy to see that they had made a mobile one too. There are tools built in to the app that let you dive into your job search and add them while you’re browsing. Really effective technology because it has let me spend every off second I have scrolling through lists of job postings. I just wish the web view was designed a little more user-friendly, the buttons for saving and navigating the webpages back and forward are on the bottom of the screen where my home button is on the iPhone XR.

### 5/5 — Really great tool during my job search

*2019-08-29, version 1.0.1*

Very easy to organise things with this app!

### 5/5 — Best app to organize yourself with job search!

*2019-02-24, version 1.0*

Amazing this app. Very easy to use. EXTREMELY helpful to organize yourself when you are applying to multiple jobs!

### 3/5 — There *is* an app for that!

*2019-01-13, version 1.0*

Thanks for making this, Ive been doing this on excel for all of my job searches and all of a sudden I realize there must be an app for this! 

For the extension, the window that pops up would be helpful to include a deadline option when you’re saving it so that you don’t have to go back in and add that information. Helpful for when you’re collecting links to apply to a later date and need to prioritize by deadline. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2019-01-10, version 1.0*

It does what it supposed to do in a really intuitive way. Great design also

### 1/5 — App Broken

*2024-04-10, version 2.0.4*

I just made an account and can’t get pass the tutorial. It freezes when I’m prompted to enter a keyword. Hope they fix this

### 1/5 — Just doesn't work

*2024-02-07, version 2.0.4*

All doesn't work. Tried multiple times to create account and sign in. Nice concept but wish that it actually worked

### 1/5 — No listing No saving

*2019-05-17, version 1.0.1*

Poorly written for not taking into account all types of situations for companies not listed.  
One can not add a company to the search, so the entire entry can not be saved.
If Huntr can be used without the company search it would bea great way of keeping track of job hunting

### 1/5 — Doesn’t show any results

*2018-06-19, version 1.0*

I type multiple job titles and nothing shows up. Impossible since I’m in a big city. What is wrong?

### 2/5 — Love the web version- but the app just doesnt work

*2025-04-21, version 2.0.10*

I love huntr. Amazing and so helpful. However being asked to log in every time and then to a blank dashboard makes me switch the desktop every time. (I use a company affiliated gmail account- maybe this is helpful in sourcing the glitch? ) Hope it gets fixed soon.

### 2/5 — good concept

*2020-10-22, version 1.0.6*

I was exited about this, but both the laptop and my app crashed. Logged me out and deleted my board I had saved. Can’t log back in - too frustrating. If the kinks get worked out this would be great! Idk, maybe it was just me - but no luck tonight.

### 2/5 — Needs an update

*2019-02-22, version 1.0*

Moving jobs around on an existing board from one category to another is near impossible on the app. When I go to drag it from a category like “Applied” over to a category like “Interview” the app wants it dragged over to the far edge of the board. So frustrating. Also, why can’t I look up the description I put in for the job in-app, and only on the web browser version of Huntr?

### 3/5 — Loved it but now want more features

*2024-05-13, version 2.0.4*

Not interested in all the AI bells & whistles which produce inaccurate results but would love instead to be able to share link to a job to save in app without having to login every single time or use built in job search. So many jobs come from newsletters and company portals not just job boards.

### 3/5 — Please update the app and site

*2023-06-06, version 2.0.0*

Love using huntr but I personally would like kanban style for dragging categories, not just job listings. Feels outdated to not have it be draggable. Also the app doesn’t reflect the site as much. Searching through jobs doesn’t work on the app. Please update it! Thank you.

### 3/5 — Seems like a great idea, but I’m not able to save jobs

*2022-03-24, version 1.0.6*

When i try and save jobs in the app, the save button is grayed out. It doesn’t matter what extra info I add, it doesn’t let me save. I’m also not able to ad any stage to the job stage section. Am I doing something wrong?

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — So helpful!

*2024-08-05, version 2.0.4*

I Love the formatting and content suggestions. Resumes come out beautiful and the autofill for applications is actually a time saver. I do not review thing, but I will for this one! Get it!

### 5/5 — Keeps me organized

*2024-04-06, version 2.0.4*

Great way to keep all job applications organized!

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2023-10-14, version 2.0.4*

Very helpful for jobseekers like me

### 5/5 — Login functionality is not working

*2023-08-11, version 2.0.4*

I love this app but I couldn’t reach to my account on mobile version. Please fix Login bug.

### 5/5 — iPad - Job Details not properly populated

*2023-03-16, version 2.0.0*

The job details from a LinkedIn posting do not save correctly. For example, LinkedIn is populated for Company. 

I’m giving this a 5 star rating because the iPhone and Mac apps have been a lifesaver!

### 5/5 — Managing all the recruiters manageable

*2023-01-25, version 2.0.0*

H

### 5/5 — If a company name is required, how do Recruiters?

*2022-03-08, version 1.0.6*

I’m really confused about how to use this without filling up my board with a bunch of test company names. It works really really well for everything else! I have been pleasantly surprised. Especially with the chrome extension. It wasn’t explained well but it works really well.

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2021-02-11, version 1.0.6*

Really great help for tracking job search

### 5/5 — Great Organizational Flow

*2020-05-22, version 1.0.6*

I started my job search in April due to Covid19 layoffs. This tool has been great for keeping track and managing my application statuses and finding new relevant opportunities to apply to. Great work!

### 5/5 — Amazing Service

*2020-02-05, version 1.0.6*

A must to keep track of your job applications. Found the website via google on my laptop, and I downloaded this app for tracking my applications on the go. Wonderful, effective, free service!!
