### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-04-01, version 1.0.3*

After logging in, nothing happens.  Just shows green arrow that I am logged in.

### 1/5 — Bad time

*2025-02-09, version 1.0*

It won’t let me create a password to access it.
Access should not be this difficult.

### 1/5 — User Unfriendly

*2026-07-27, version 1.0.11*

Gave up trying to open the gate with app. I’ll just punch in my code.

### 1/5 — price increases

*2026-06-14, version 1.0.10*

They are outrageous with their prices; they rent to you at a reasonable rate, but after three months, they more than double it—avoid renting here.

### 1/5 — App needs work

*2026-02-02*

This is a great business but the app is frustrating. Touch ID doesn’t work and it kicks me out making me key in my very long email and password just to open the gate.  Also, why do I need to log in every time I open the App?

**Developer response:** Hello Lkwpop. We are so sorry that you are having this login problem with the mobile app. We would be happy to assist you with this if you can call our support line at (833) 374-0597 or send us a message at cs@smartstop.com. As an FYI, you may want to look at your Account Settings to make sure the Biometrics setting is turned on. This assists with auto logging in when you open the app. Thanks for choosing SmartStop.

### 1/5 — Account create problem

*2025-07-30, version 1.0.7*

Can’t create an account; get a 405 file error

### 1/5 — App not bad company is a pile of dog sht

*2025-05-27, version 1.0.5*

App is actually good, company over all is something you would scoop out of the a dog park. Not only did they try to bully me into auto pay telling me it was policy (even though I opted out when I signed my contract, and customer service said they couldn’t do this) the “manager” if you even went to call her that, was rude AF and extremely unprofessional talking about how the fired another employee (like that has anything to do with me). On top of that on their contract they stated 30 day notice before rent increase and they did not properly provide that to me.

### 1/5 — Payment Crash

*2025-04-23, version 1.0.4*

Anytime I click the “make a payment” button the app immediately crashes.

### 1/5 — Junk app

*2025-04-23, version 1.0.4*

Can't make payments. App just freezes and closes.

### 1/5 — Needs Work

*2025-04-02, version 1.0.3*

When I first opened the app, type in my username and password, and hit the LOGIN button, it didn’t do anything. All it gave me was a green check mark. I then tried closing and reopening the app, and it doesn’t even get me to the login screen

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2025-04-02, version 1.0.3*

I’ve tried several times to log in and the app just freezes. I’ve deleted it several times also and still the same result. I end up having to log in from a browser instead. Please fix this issue clearly something is off in the coding.

### 1/5 — App not opening

*2025-04-01, version 1.0.3*

Can’t open .. main page view only.  Spent several minutes just trying to log in - had to request my info to be sent and then it still won’t open -uninstalled and reinstalled and still not working

### 5/5 — Access feature

*2025-09-22, version 1.0.8*

Used the access feature from the app to open the gate and exit the gate.  Worked flawlessly.  No need to enter the code anymore.

### 5/5 — Review on self storage

*2025-06-17, version 1.0.6*

Today mincol did an amazing job , she’s great and very professional. She’s really funny and she’s making sure her job isn’t that boring.

### 5/5 — Fantastic new app to manage my unit

*2025-01-22, version 1.0*

Great functionality and easy to use!

### 4/5 — Needs CarPlay Support

*2025-11-24, version 1.0.9*

App generally works fine with few complaints, but having car play support would make usability way easier when pulling into the storage lots and garages.

### 2/5 — Unable to make payment

*2025-04-24, version 1.0.4*

App completely shuts down when I click to make a payment via the app. Please fix asap.
