### 4/5 — Useful app!

*2020-12-18, version 5.5.0*

This app is super useful I like that you can search by service and use a map! I wish you hadn’t gotten rid of the refer a friend feature though

### 3/5 — Asks for an update but there is none

*2020-07-30, version 5.4.0*

I have been using this app for a year, its easy and straightforward but now I cant use it because it says there is a newer version to update. However, there is none available so I cant use it.

### 5/5 — Great time saver!

*2019-06-10, version 5.1.7*

A great app to book appointments!

### 5/5 — All-around great app

*2019-05-20, version 5.1.7*

Interface is intuitive and sleek. Makes the process of booking appointments (which can be painful) a lot easier. Would definitely recommend giving the app a try.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2019-05-10, version 5.1.7*

Tons of options and you can pay and tip from your phone. Love it

### 2/5 — Over charged twice in a row

*2019-05-02, version 5.1.7*

I like this app, it’s so convenient. But twice in a row now I’ve had to adjust my appointment and remove a service because of timing, and both times I was charged the amount for the service I didn’t receive. If you adjusted your appointment make sure you’re checking what you were charged. I’ve caught it both times and had to email customer service for a refund. Because of that, not sure I’ll be using the app again.

**Developer response:** Hello JLR- We are truly sorry for your experience.  We explained when you wrote to customer service that there was a glitch in your account and you were immediately refunded.  We have hundreds of modifications daily and this doesn't happen.  We are still looking into why this happened on your account and are working hard to make sure it doesn't happen again.  We hope to connect you to beauty salons again in the near future.

### 5/5 — Awesome app!! ❤️❤️❤️

*2019-04-26, version 5.1.7*

I love this app. Snailz is user friendly and  makes any nail salon experience simple and comfortable. Definitely recommend!

### 5/5 — Amazing app, so helpful and convenient!

*2019-03-20, version 5.1.4*

So easy to use and makes everything so much easier !! I have tried so many new nail salons because of Snailz and I’ve recommended it to so many friends who love it too!

### 5/5 — Easy peasy + rewardz!

*2019-02-27, version 5.1.3*

Needed pedicure before beach vacay. I was in an unfamiliar nabe. Used app to read reviews (because I need ultra clean salon) Found a good one, booked with app. Added a massage. Worked out well & when I recommended it to a friend I earned $$$ to spend in app for more services. Yay you Snailz!

### 5/5 — Great experience!

*2019-02-15, version 5.1.3*

I was looking for a salon that offered dip powder manicures, and the Snailz app made it so easy to find! I booked an appointment, arrived 30 minutes later, and didn’t have to deal with finding cash to tip.

I received one of the best manicures that I’ve had yet in NY after living here for 1 year.  I’ll definitely keep using the app and going back to my new favorite salon!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-02-04, version 5.5.5*

Worst app I’ve ever come across.  Nail salon wouldn’t honor my reservation and made me pay in cash when I already paid on the app. Scam, stupid, unnecessary. Stay away. Also notice how all the latest good reviews came on the same day - clearly from people who work at the company.

### 1/5 — Fraudulent app

*2021-04-22, version 5.5.3*

Every time I show up to a salon after booking on this app, they don’t have any record of my appointment and I’ve already been charged for the services. This has happened 3 times. You are better off just calling your local salon to make an appointment or walking in. I’ve been denied service each time because the salon is fully booked already.

### 1/5 — Great idea but glitchy

*2020-11-23, version 5.4.1*

App wouldn’t load my Groupon and I had to pay out of pocket. When I contacted customer service, I was told they didn’t do refunds but I could use the Groupon another day. When I told them I had moved away from NYC and couldn’t use it, they still refused to refund me. (This happened a while ago and yeah I’m still salty about it.)

### 1/5 — False advertising or bad UI, unsure which

*2019-08-25, version 5.3.4*

I was targeted with an ad for a free manicure if I downloaded the app. I downloaded the app and looked for a manicure, but there’s nothing in the app regarding this promotion. Either the app UI is bad or they’re lying in their marketing materials, it is unclear which is which.

### 1/5 — Ditch the app and just walk into nearest salon

*2019-08-15, version 5.3.4*

I tried app in order to be able to make a reservation to get nails salon and ended up actually waiting over 30 minutes, eventually walked out of establishment even though they knew I had an appointment 40 minutes prior. Defeats the purpose and would rather just walk into a salon and know where I stand as opposed to making a reservation to waste my time

### 1/5 — Don’t get scammed out of money or services

*2019-07-26, version 5.3.3*

You’re better off just going to a salon and paying after you get what you pay for. I didn’t receive the service I paid for through the app and after contacting customer service they sided with the salon and I didn’t get a refund. Also had to wait weeks for an answer. Just overall extremely frustrating experience.

### 1/5 — Please eliminate bad nail salons

*2019-07-11, version 5.3.2*

Worst experience. Nail salon people treat you badly as if we are getting nails done for free and then they have that much audacity to ask for tips before doing nails and they don’t do a good job even if you tip them on app. Like seriously, what kind of service is that. You guys should definitely eliminate these shady nail salons. My money was wasted.

### 1/5 — This app never works

*2019-06-21, version 5.2.0*

I tried logging in 5 times and it always says incorrect password, even after resetting it. Emailed them for help and no response.

### 1/5 — Unable to create account

*2019-06-09, version 5.1.7*

Such an erroneous App, it doesn’t even allowing me make account because as per the rules of App, the question which says where did you hear about us, cannot have “Facebook” as answer. I really don’t know what else to write. Uninstalling right away.

### 1/5 — Want to love this app, but it’s too glitchy

*2019-03-27, version 5.1.5*

I like the concept of this app and really want to love it, but it is so frustrating to use. First, when I try to change the time I want to browse for, it takes me to the calendar to choose a day, and then the confirmation button is cut off the bottom of the screen so I can’t actually click it to confirm. Then when I search for specific services and reservation times, a salon will show up on the search, but when I click on the salon to go to its page, all of the available times that appeared on the search page are gone and it says all times are unavailable. And when I click on the map to browse salons by pinned location, it keeps bringing me back to list view randomly when I try to click on a pin to see the salon. I want to love this app but it needs MAJOR improvement.

**Developer response:** HI!  Thank you for your feedback. With regards to the confirmation button being cutoff, that can happen if your font size is enlarged.  Please check your settings.  We tried to recreate the flow you mentioned and cannot.  If you experience that again please email us at info@snailzapp.com and we are happy to help you.

*2021-08-05, version 5.5.5*

I love this app so much! Snailz has really helped to narrow down my search results for salons and I love that I get rewarded too! I’ve had this app for a while now and it just keeps improving after each update. Could not recommend an app more :)

*2021-08-04, version 5.5.5*

Using this app is literally so convenient bc i hate using cash and i also get to rack up points to use on free stuff. it’s super flexible for changing appointments which is great because my schedule is always so hectic. definitely recommend!!!

### 5/5 — Easy to use!!

*2021-08-04, version 5.5.5*

I used it to discover the salons near me and made an appointment. I paid the service fee and tips using cc card so that I don’t need to bring the cash with me! Also I earned rewards for every dollar I spent and I’ll def use it for my next appointment. It’s super convenient and easy to use!

Very useful app - I never have cash on me for a tip so this makes it perfect that I can pay through the app.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed!

*2019-06-10, version 5.1.7*
