Very easy to launch a business/ side hustle on this app. However editing questions/ location can be a challenge at times

### 5/5 — Great way to start a side business and make some extra cash

*2023-05-04*

I used Kanu for 6 months and made over $100 in revenue, for the work I put in that is definitely worth it and the app has two devoted founders constantly striving to improve the experience.

The makers of this app did a great job!

### 5/5 — The best way to start a student-run business

*2023-01-20*

KANU is the best way for a busy student with good ideas and an entrepreneurial drive to take those ideas to market in a safe and supportive environment. The app has tons of useful features, like its integration with maps to find businesses near you, and the ability to design and adjust all aspects of your business. It is a great way to discover new ways and ideas that you have for your business, without any of the risk associated with running a business! Overall, I would recommend KANU to anyone looking to take their ideas to market, and make some money off their creativity.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App blows

*2025-10-01, version 4.4.0*

I use it for school and its difficult, annoying, and not available on web version

### 1/5 — Good reviews are for class grades, app is useless.

*2021-12-09, version 2.16.0*

This app is absolutely useless, students leave good reviews for points in class. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD

*2021-12-09, version 2.16.0*

Had to download this app for a school project. Extremely buggy and hard to use. I tried to make 8 purchases and was charged 13 times. Not user friendly and a waste of time.

### 1/5 — yikes

*2021-04-15*

this app is a NIGHTMARE to use. do not be fooled by the other reviews, it’s just students giving it a good rating so they can pass their class.. navigating people/services is much more difficult than it should be. many bugs that need to be fixed too. app does not run smoothly. you are better off using a different platform

**Developer response:** Hi DaisyMay295, we are sorry to hear that you had a troubling experience with Kanu. We just released version 2.5.0. which resolved many bugs. As you may be aware, Kanu is relatively young and currently in use at only two universities. Please feel free to reach out to us at kanu@kashman.biz and we’d be happy to discuss your issues further and how we can provide you with a better experience.

### 2/5 — Kinda Stupid

*2023-05-10, version 4.1.4*

It’s really a bunch of little things that make this app horrible to use. From the grammar mistakes to the bugs in the service, this app fails itself from being what it’s designed to do.

### 2/5 — Kanu Review

*2023-04-24*

Was forced to pay for an expensive membership to use this app for 3 weeks. If I had to pay $17 for it I would expect a smooth-working app, but I got the exact opposite. Nightmare to use and creating a marketplace on here is essentially useless because there are better platforms. Great idea, bad execution

### 2/5 — Password issue

*2023-01-25, version 4.0.8*

I am not able to reset my password, the link that I was emailed is not allowing me to rest my password

### 2/5 — Cant Access App

*2022-01-14*

I downloaded the app after hearing about it in a recent class. Made my account and tried to verify my email. I am now stuck at a point where it says “user is not activated” if i try to login and if i try to register again, it tells me “user email is already in use”. I go to app support and it just brings me to the website but I cannot find any support to help me with my problem. Seems like a cool app, I would really like to use it.

### 3/5 — Difficult to use

*2026-02-19, version 4.6.0*

I found it to be not user friendly and did not enable me to properly get things going

### 4/5 — Kanu

*2024-11-21*

Kanu is very beneficial for a student like myself. I found it very organized and productive. The only thing I would say is the milestones are a little long. And tough to read every single one.

### 5/5 — So hard to use

*2025-12-12, version 4.5.2*

We had to use it for a school project and it was nightmare. So difficult to use and would constantly have issues. I know it’s a new app and it does have potential to be a good app one day but right now it’s slow, difficult to use, and so confusing.

### 5/5 — Very useful and helpful with a microbusiness

*2024-11-21*

Kanu is a great tool for college students to promote small businesses. Kanu has helped me learn about the different business aspects including marketing and financial management. The course material is relevant to the material I’m currently learning in a business score.
