Doesn’t load anything

Trying to post about a lost pet which is pretty time sensitive and this app does not upload all the photos. It gives me the options to post 5 and after 30 tries of the upload failing it only posts 1 picture/video. I used on WiFi and 5G LTE and neither work. I have perfectly fine service. Very disappointed as important things need to be posted on here as it’s time sensitive material a lot of the time and the app does not function well at all.

Where’s the old preferences???

This app used to be good as it offered a legend at the top which you could click to see incidents, reports about your neighborhood, etc. you also used to be able to FILTER for the type of posts you wanted to see. Now they’ve taken away all of that, which makes this useless. Now it’s just not dog and cat app and there’s now no way to turn those posts off in your feed. How utterly annoying. No wonder nobody uses this app anymore.

Only my close neighbors now how good I am at catching them,seem like your on the wrong side of the fence. Pm me I’ll show my videos they denied.

App required to manage settings

I tend to use a web browser to access neighbors, due to all the data collected by this app. Now, Ring is forcing the use of this app by making it the only way to manage your neighborhood settings, as they crippled the website so that you're not allowed to manage settings without the app.

The posts are pretty much 95% lost pets, "is your internet out too", and "is your power out too", with a few "this guy is driving wrong" posts. Oh, and "was that a firework or a gunshot". Light off a roll of firecrackers and you'll get some "that was an automatic weapon " posts.

Strangely, there are very few posts about crime now, but there used to be tons of them.

All in all, Neighbors has become a pretty useless app.
