### 5/5 — Simplicity

*2025-05-24, version 8.6.22*

This is possibly the easiest app I have had to navigate. Things have been made so simple to follow even my 4 year old can manage.

### 5/5 — I anticipated dooms day

*2025-04-16, version 8.6.22*

I am a first time Outsurance customer, referred by my sister and wouldn’t have thought of the brand ‘cause I always thought they are very expensive.

At inception of contract I noticed one element of my vehicle information was captured incorrectly so I called. The error was corrected in my absence and from a quoted instalment of approximately 1700, the instalment jumped to approximately 2500 and I called to understand. I dreaded the call because I anticipated having to jump through hoops and million red tapes to get this sorted, and I had already cancelled my insurance. I was ready to fight tooth and nails, I anticipated having to write a million emails to motivate my stance, escalating higher and raising my voice a few times, I had the scenario all played out in my head.

I gunner the courage and call and I was referred to Thabelo the specialist to assist. He made the call so easy and I was still thinking it is tactics to calm me ‘cause a storm was brewing. Kept my cool and he asked to come back to me the same day. To my surprise and absolute relief, the instalment was taken back to the initial agreement and I did not have to kick and scream.

In all I have written, a big thank you to Outsurance, firstly for beating my current insurer and secondly for saving me the emotional and psychological turmoil and keeping your word.

### 5/5 — Outsurance create followers

*2025-04-05, version 8.6.17*

Outsurance is a breath of fresh air. The use of technology makes them innovative & creative. 
Their service is breathtakingly good. 
Having dealt with other insurance company when my sister was in an accident taking 6 months to settle a simple clai, confirm my opinion that Outsurance is the industry leader leaving other to tryto follow and immitate. 👏👌

### 5/5 — Mobile Inspection App

*2025-03-08, version 8.6.8*

This App is simple and straightforward, very convenient way to upload your car’s inspections at the comfort of your home

### 5/5 — Vehicle Inspection

*2025-02-13, version 8.6.0*

With six vehicles under one policy this is an excellent way for vehicle inspection instead of taking them all in to town from a farm. Very easy and convenient.

### 3/5 — Bug

*2025-01-29, version 8.5.10*

Trying to insure a vehicle but app keeps saying email is required when trying to load the info,  put email in space provided but still says email is required so can’t get past that.  Please fix this bug. 
Otherwise the app is good.

### 5/5 — Logout

*2025-01-21, version 8.5.10*

The requirement from our insurance for certain added advantages is that a person remains logged in on the app however it automatically locks you out.

### 5/5 — Outsurance rating

*2024-12-07, version 8.5.8*

It’s a wonderful app and a wonderful service provider. For their footprint in the market it’s amazing how they still make a simple end user feel like they are their only client. Thank you

### 5/5 — Great experience

*2024-12-03, version 8.5.8*

Outsurance’s App has made it so easy for a busy person like me, to get my vehicle inspection done so easily with the digital experience.

### 5/5 — Helpful app but smart drive issues

*2024-10-27, version 8.5.6*

Cannot use smart drive as there is no option under the app settings for iOS to allow app to use location services.

### 5/5 — Easy and convenient use!!

*2024-10-04, version 8.5.4*

Outsurance app does it for you. With a ease of use and helpful interface brings you peace of mind

### 5/5 — Awesome service

*2024-09-27, version 8.5.4*

App makes things so much easier than calling or taking to an assessor. App functions perfectly.

### 2/5 — Smart TV advertisement

*2024-09-08, version 8.4.35*

I like your Tv ad for essential, where the woman say you will pay the money to her and she can find her own Panelbeater… what it actually says is that you will be paying her so little, that she will have to go and find a panel beater that can fix her car for next to nothing if at all possible… very clever marketing

### 3/5 — Terrible update

*2024-07-29, version 8.4.0*

The updated app doesn’t allow you to view details of cover as effectively. I use this for my pet insurance and doesn’t even immediately show that it’s for 2 pets. Preferred the app before the update

### 3/5 — Unable to grant access to location (iOS latest version)

*2024-07-24, version 8.3.0*

I am unable to activate SmartDrive properly because the OUTsurance app (latest) doesn’t give me the option to give it permissions for my location data. Location data is not shown as something the OUTsurance app is requesting access to so I can’t set it. iOS17.5.1.

### 5/5 — Outsurance

*2024-03-18, version 7.23.4*

I switched and saved (a LOT)! last week so am fully covered and have pet insurance. which I can afgord now due to the savings.

### 5/5 — Breakdown

*2024-02-29, version 7.23.4*

I want to thank you for the professional way my breakdown was handled. From the start I knew I was in good hands. It took less than half an hour from the time I phoned till my vehicle was towed to get repaired.

### 3/5 — Annoyed

*2024-02-26, version 7.23.4*

Have been using the app for a while and never had issues. It’s generally a great app and has all you need for quick access. Lately, since 6+ months ago, the app keeps asking me to log in. I log in. Get logged out. Get asked to log in again. Multiple times a day. It’s become a frustration at this point. My app is up to date. The issue started randomly.

### 1/5 — App does not request Location service for smart drive

*2024-10-03, version 8.5.4*

I have installed the App multiple times, reset the Location services and restarted my phone. However I cannot find the App in the Location services to turn on the location services to enable smart drive dir the 10% discount. After some searching on line, the App is supposed to ask for permission to enable location services once installed and it doesn’t

### 1/5 — New version

*2023-06-27*

Updated version fails.

**Developer response:** Good day. Apologies for the inconvenience caused. Please email your ID or policy number to app@out.co.za so that we can assist you. Kind regards, The OUTsurance App Team.

### 1/5 — Vehicle inspection

*2022-11-16, version 7.19.0*

Where is the vehicle inspection in the app ?

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2021-12-01, version 7.11.0*

You don’t have a star rating that warrants this app. Should be minus 5. You login into the app and select always on. Low and behold before you know it you are disconnected. You try to log in again and as soon as you do you get blank screen. Had to delete the app 4 times today and reinstall it. What a waste of time money and data. I registered for discount according to my driving. Well I get the message they can’t find my location. I then go to settings and select always on AGAIN and then it connects to the app for a short while. Please improve this app and make it more user friendly because at this rate I will NEVER qualify for any discount!!!

### 1/5 — Not good at all

*2021-03-01, version 7.4.2*

For a very basic app this does not perform very well. It has been a few days now and the vehicle tracking has still not recorded one of my 10 trips I have taken.

I have deregistered and registered again hoping there was a linking issue but after taking a few trips still nothing. There is no info to see if my trips are detected and being uploaded or what the status is of a trip. 

I checked the permissions the location is set to always and precise as per requirements. The motion and fitness is on as well. Background app refresh is on as well. You have all the permissions you could possibly need.

I also know it is not my device as I have other apps that track my motion for running and cycling as well as one for vehicles and they all work perfectly. Please fix your app!

Also your the biometric login is not functional the app keeps loggging me out. This app needs urgent and lots of developer attention.

### 1/5 — Unable to get them to call me

*2018-07-24, version 6.6.4*

Tried to get additional insurance, was told I was going to be called. Never got called.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2018-04-07, version 6.5.2*

I have sent screen shots multiple times still does not load my policy details and i never get any response from the developers.

Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — The new version doesn't work anymore

*2015-06-21, version 4.0*

I loved this app because of the points men request function ! However with the new update I can't do that any longer ! Thumbs down !

### 1/5 — Too bad app isn't on par with their daily service

*2013-12-02, version 3.3*

Whilst Outsurance has always impressed me with their service, the app is a total let-down. Ever since I've downloaded the app, I haven't been able to register. Keeps on telling me to try again later. Why would they advertise a service that doesn't work? :(

### 1/5 — Existing client, but this app won't find any of our policies

*2013-10-25, version 3.2*

I have downloaded the app, put in my husbands ID , and it doesn't show either his policy on the house contents or my business policy which is under the same policy number, please advise!

### 5/5 — Best car insurance

*2025-12-02, version 8.6.48*

OUTsurance delivers an outstanding insurance experience — the app and service are both modern, intuitive and genuinely customer-focused.

The app is clean, fast and easy to navigate; getting a quote, updating cover and uploading documents takes minutes. Claims submission is straightforward with guided steps and clear status updates, and support (in-app chat and phone) is responsive and helpful. Payments and policy documents are accessible instantly, and the design makes complex information simple to understand.

Service-wise, OUTsurance feels personal and reliable. Staff are professional, communications are transparent, and the company follows through on commitments — claims are handled with empathy and clarity rather than friction. The combination of competitive pricing, flexible cover options and proactive communication gives real peace of mind.

Overall: efficient app, friendly and trustworthy service, excellent value — highly recommended for anyone who wants dependable insurance without the usual hassle.
