Geo location didn’t work

Geolocation does not even work. Probably a scam.

Buggy

I want to start using this app but it freezes up at location settings….

No listings

I wanted to preview the tools available in my local area before I sign up but there’s none to view. Zero! This app has promise of anyone used it.

Only ONE tool available in a large city

(1) In the 10th largest city in the U.S. they have exactly ONE tool available.

(2) You can’t browse without signing up for an acct. (It leads u to believe u can, but it doesn’t show even the one tool that’s actually available.)

(3) Forces u to give permission for camera access to take pictures of your tools, even if want to just rent from others.

(4) Can’t browse inventory on website, forced to download the app.

This is a pure scam App! Never ever use this App in your life time!

This App is a professional scam App, when you apply your personal account, it’ll request you fill a form with 100% of your private information including your SSN, your address, your name, all your bank account information including card number & CVV number, I did it then I found out after I uploaded all my personal information & the tools pictures & price I want to rent, I won’t even able to find my tools pictures at all! This is a pure scam App! Don’t use it at all in your life time! 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

No tools available!

Would be a great app if there were actually tools to rent.

Response from developer

We are still gathering users on the tool owner side, right now it's spread across the entire US. Sorry for the issues. Hoping we can get more users soon. We are 100% bootstrapped so resources are a bit tight.

Not giving my debit card to unknown app

Setup is crap. They require last 4 of social and debit card info including secret code and birth date(?) that it won’t let you enter. Very suspect. They could at least let you preview tools available in your area. Not willing to take the chance. Cool concept though. Get it right and I will use it.

Response from developer

This is to protect people from bad players out there. We have to be super careful. Sorry you found this to be an issue.

Decent concept but completely missing yard tools

I was excited to find this app until I realized that there are no garden or yard tools at all. (Aerators, tillers, mowers etc) On top of that, you would think there would be an immediate search box when you first logon as I’m assuming most people download this app when they have a need to find some thing. The search isn’t user friendly.

Phone number does not work

Can’t get past 2FA using phone number. Does not recognize phone number. Is it looking for space in between?

Not sure where the positive reviews came from

All the positive reviews are from 2 years ago and highly suspect. At most there’s like 20 tools available. App interface is nice, but not super useful without tools.

Good idea, no users

Great app idea, but terrible execution as there are no users, even within major cities.

To add insult to injury, all the positive reviews are within a few days of each other and may not be real.

Response from developer

Thanks for your review! We understanding that growing the user base is the key concern right now, and it's our #1 priority.

Cool idea but I can’t seem to get it to search

I dig the concept and the app is easy to navigate and set up however I can’t seem to search for tools unless there truly isn’t anyone using this app within a 500 mile radius. There website seems to be down as well.

Response from developer

Hey sorry about that - there was some issues with the site. We are back now. In terms of the tool search, where are you located? There might not be that many people around you with tools.

Genius App

Buddy of mine recommended this app when i need a tool while restoring a 65 chevy impala! So clutch!! Will continue to use this app going further!!

Very convenient.

I was able to find a specific saw blade near me right away!

Great idea!

This is a perfect idea for young people that haven’t been able to buy all the tools they want yet! Looks amazing

SO NEEDED

I can’t believe it took this long for a P2P tool rental app to make it out. It’s just so practical! I move around a lot so I try to keep things pretty minimalistic—which means very few tools. Who wants to drag a giant ladder or heavy drill around from one state to the next?! Being able to rent it is so much more convenient...and I love that, like Airbnb, it gives people another way to earn money from stuff they already own.

Easy to use and user friendly

App is crafted extremely well and very easy to use.

DIY

This is perfect! I hate going to home depot to buy new tools.

Clever idea

Glad someone came up with the idea, to compete with the big guys. Cool app.

100% Reccomend

Sparetoolz is an easy to navigate convenient app for tool rental! Sparetoolz has been a lifesaver for me because I don’t own a lot of tools but I do occasionally need them. This app has saved me a ton of time and money because I no longer need to run to Home Depot for a drill, I just rent one from someone nearby! Think of sparetoolz as Airbnb for tools!
