Not worth the hassle
This app doesn’t offer anything more than Facebook Marketplace does, yet it charges a premium—10% of the agreed sublet rent. All they provide is a lease agreement, which is something you can easily download from the internet or generate yourself using AI for free. What's more, they offer no financial security or protection for either the subletter or the person subletting their room or apartment. Scams and problems are just as easy to encounter as they are on any free platform—except this one charges you a premium for the privilege. I strongly recommend against using this app.

Last minute cancellation
I would not recommend snag sublets to anyone. I booked an “instant book” reservation, meaning I had to pay $3,000 prior to even having the option to message the host. The booking was confirmed, but the host was able to cancel my reservation 6 hours before the agreement date, after I received a sublease agreement and the address, so now I am attempting to get a refund and figure out what to do for the next month that I had already paid for.

Business model doesn’t make sense
After looking at sublets through the freemium model and chatting a bit with a great subletter, I was suddenly blocked from using the app, learning that I could only continue sending messages to the subletter if I pay $50. I had already agreed on a time for a video call with him, but the app suddenly didn’t let me send anymore messages or engage in a video call unless I paid the $50… I can’t even contact the guy to let him know why I’m unable to respond to him. And no, I don’t want to pay $50 just to look through sublet options and chat with potential sublet options. StreetEasy and Zillow don’t ask that of their users.

Useless app ever
I regret downloading this app. There are no posts, and I got no replies!!!
Full of scammers
Just a total waste of $50, probably gonna be my biggest purchase regret of the entire year. The one legit-seeming person I messaged didn’t even respond to my inquiry, and the rest were clearly looking to farm money from fake application fees, trying to get me to send them money outside the app. Do not pay for Snag.
