Amazing marketplace 😍

I give it 5 stars

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2025-02-28, version 19.6.0*

This app is full of conmen. Be careful to use it or post anything on it.

### 2/5 — So many bugs

*2024-02-14, version 18.9.1*

Shows there are 7 notifications. But when open notification, it says no notification. if a person send you reply after you delete the chat, it shows that you have message but doesn't show you messages.

### 2/5 — Freezes

*2024-01-15, version 18.8.1*

I have to delete and re upload this app because it fails to launch.

### 1/5 — Deceptive Ad Boost and Safety Concerns

*2023-06-30, version 18.2.0*

My experience with the Jiji Kenya app and its ad boost feature has been disappointing. I subscribed to boost my ads, expecting widespread visibility for a month. However, my ads were only shown to 23 people, and only one person viewed my contact details. I paid 2500 Kenyan shillings for this service, which is a joke. Additionally, there are safety concerns on the app, with many scammer users operating, making it unsafe. If possible, I would give this app 0 stars. Apple should remove these scammers.

### 5/5 — Nice hub for most of our online needs

*2023-02-12, version 17.3.0*

I go to this app to find and buy most of the things I can think of.

### 2/5 — App needs a serious upgrade

*2023-02-02, version 17.2.0*

Can’t delete old messages or notifications, very annoying to use.

### 1/5 — App is trash

*2022-12-18, version 17.2.0*

Your app is very bugged yaani the android version is better than ios it keeps force stopping when sorting by price

### 5/5 — Dark Mode

*2022-11-24, version 17.0.0*

Add dark mode on the app to be complatible with the dark mode settings on the phone
