What a bust. ### 3/5 — Used to be the best *2019-11-28, version 12.0.2* Did this app get phased out or replaced by its developers? Let ur loyal fans (and advocates) know where you’ve gone to if so! ### 3/5 — Not searchable anymore *2019-11-26, version 12.0.2* I’ll echo what the other user mentioned. The ads used to searchable and we can use your favorite dead to a list. Not any more this year. All the circulars are uploaded but you cannot search them. ### 3/5 — Used to be wonderful! *2019-11-25, version 12.0.2* This used to be my favorite Black Friday app and I’d happily pay premium app price to make it useable like it used to be! ### 2/5 — What happened to the functionality? *2019-11-22, version 12.0.2* This WAS my Black Friday buddy for years since you could make a list of each item found in the circular ads and it conveniently added up the amounts. Now it’s just the circular ads like all the other apps. That was the competitive advantage this app had over others. Sad but moving on to others. ### 1/5 — BRING BACK THE OLD APP *2019-11-19, version 12.0.2* I don’t know why the developers decided to ditch the app this year, but it is horrible now. Totally unusable. They used to be very comprehensive, now they upload a single Black Friday ad scan, and that’s it. I used this app for many years and loved it. I’m deleting it after posting this. How could you guys possibly fail so hard? Was the app not making any money? Literally every review from 2019 is negative. ### 3/5 — Update 2019 *2019-11-19, version 12.0.2* Please update the app ### 4/5 — Please come back!!! *2019-11-19, version 12.0.2* This year the app is not very good as they are only uploading the ads themselves. In the past this app was amazing! You search all ads and add them to your favorites list and the best feature to me was the most popular items part. It showed what other people had on their favorites and there are usually a few deals that I missed! I would honestly pay to have the old app back! Please come back next year! Review was 5 stars until this year :-( ### 1/5 — No Longer Useful *2019-11-18, version 12.0.2* This use to be my go to App for Black Friday. However, now you can no longer see items by category and select them individually for your shopping list. All this App does is let you scroll through store flyers, and you can’t individually select anything to put on a list.... Useless.... ### 1/5 — Liked old version *2019-11-17, version 12.0.2* Not sure why you changed it, but I liked the older version better. It was easier to get the deals when you could add to your list from categories. ### 2/5 — Missing functionality *2019-11-16, version 12.0.2* If only the app worked for 2019 like it has in the past, with individual items available to add to your list. I loved this app and now it’s basically useless. ### 2/5 — Old version is better *2019-11-15, version 12.0.2* I don’t want to see circulars. This update does not work well. I have a hard time just selecting an item or doing a search for an item. ### 1/5 — Just ad scans *2019-11-15, version 12.0.2* App is only useful for viewing ads. No other functionality like search. ### 2/5 — 2019 *2019-11-15, version 12.0.2* Why is the app not fully wishing. Have been using this for years. Gonna miss not using it this year. ### 1/5 — No update for 2019 *2019-11-12, version 12.0.2* Sad this app no longer works for BF 2019. Only shows ads, and can no longer create a shopping list. This WAS my favorite BF app for many years. :( ### 2/5 — Can’t add item to list *2019-11-12, version 12.0.2* Unable to add individual items to my list as I have done in previous years. ### 3/5 — Please fix *2018-11-22, version 12.0.2* Love this app but not all the ads show even the day of Black Friday. Please fix this. ### 3/5 — Doesn’t work on TMobile cellular network. *2018-11-21, version 12.0.2* Doesn’t work on TMobile cellular network, only works in wi-fi. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Trash app *2022-11-21, version 12.0.2* This used to be my go to app for Black Friday. Not anymore! Only 2 or 3 ads uploaded. Worthless now ### 1/5 — Hasn’t been useful since 2018 *2020-11-13, version 12.0.2* I had been using this app for years, deals were categorized and you could create a list of items you want. Last year it was like this and this year it’s the same thing, it seems like they’re just posting the Black Friday circular for each store but not categorizing by item. Not really useful compared to what it used to be especially since this is something you can do by going to the store’s website and seeing the circular. ### 1/5 — 5 start for the service they provided until last year. This year it is painful. *2020-11-07, version 12.0.2* It was great till last year this year it’s just showing ads as is. There is no list and all as it used to be till Last year. If this year they are updating it for something they better do it fast or else there is no point in using this app. Also any suggestions from reader for Black Friday apps? ### 1/5 — Crap *2019-11-29, version 12.0.2* It’s crap this year , obviously not being updated anymore, don’t waste your time , I’ll be deleting this app and downloading a different one ! If I could give zero stars I would ### 1/5 — Not updated *2019-11-27, version 12.0.2* Loved this app in the past but this no updates very sad ### 1/5 — What happened?! *2019-11-27, version 12.0.2* This used to be my favorite Black Friday app! Now it’s just ad scans. No ability to add items and make lists. So bummed out! ### 1/5 — They stopped trying *2019-11-23, version 12.0.2* This was my go to app for a few years. But it’s like they gave up this year. You used to be able to add items to a cart and keep track of what you wanted. Now it’s just uploaded ads and even then they stopped with a 4th of the stores. ### 1/5 — Useless app for 2019. Deleted it *2019-11-23, version 12.0.2* See title ### 1/5 — Used to be my fav! *2019-11-22, version 12.0.2* What the heck happened? This used to be my fave. Make lists. Search for items. Ugh I’m sad this 2019 Black Friday. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2019-11-19, version 12.0.2* Was so excited to use the app again this year as I have used it the past 3 years! You can no longer make lists and the only thing you can do it view circulars! I’ll be looking for a new Black Friday app. So disappointing!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best Black Friday app every year! *2018-11-14, version 12.0.2* I started using this app years ago and I am shocked how few reviews it gets. I’ve tried using others but none of them have the same ease of use and actually functional search feature. This app is fool proof and being able to creat my lists of wants for Black Friday, organized by store, with price totals is spectacular!! More people need to scroll past the “top” Black Friday apps and give this app the attention it deserves! ### 5/5 — The best one *2018-11-09, version 12.0.2* This is by far the best bf app for browsing. It’s easy to navigate, categorized, simple and effective. I have downloaded multiple bf apps and ended up deleting every single one but this app. It says 2017 but the contents are updated to 2018 ### 5/5 — EXCELLENT!!! *2017-11-17, version 12.0.2* I have used this app for the past 3 years now. It absolutely LOVE it! I recommend it and have shared it with MANY friends. It makes my Black Friday shopping so easy! I can access the adds weeks in advance and plan out my shopping without the anxiety and stress of last minute planning. I can shop by store or by category and save my favorites all in one easy-access place allowing me to compare items and prices between stores. It’s THE best! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Perfect *2016-11-03, version 11.03* Have to wait for the adds to load. Normally starts slowly starting beginning of November. I've used it a few years now, making my list and hitting the stores. Prices have always been right. ### 5/5 — Simply amazing! *2015-11-28, version 11.02* This app is wondrous. I love it! I used it last year and I plan or using it next year also! ### 5/5 — Black Friday app *2015-11-25, version 11.02* This is my must have and favorite Black Friday app by far! ### 5/5 — Awesome APP!!!! *2013-11-27, version 9.2* I have no idea why this app isn't working for folks. I've got iPhone 4S but I haven't updated to iso7 and this app is working great no crashes for me. I always check reviews so I'm one of the lucky ones. This app is keeping me up to date on all the sales from everywhere and all the coupons are right here! Really awesome and I'm enjoying it! Hope this helps y'all! ### 5/5 — Love the saving option! *2013-11-22, version 9.2* I love that this app gives you the option to save the products that you are looking to purchase! It's so much better than writing them down and they also have the store name listed for you! Black Friday shopping made easy!!! Best Black Friday app that I have found so far, also I have not yet found any glitches which is pretty mind blowing! ### 5/5 — Love this!! *2013-11-20, version 9.2* I love this app!!!! This app is amazing you get a ll the sales for Black Friday of the popular stores!! I made my list already for Black Friday so now I know where to shop and how much I'm going to spend!! It's a great way to see where are the best prices. Perfect to make Christmas list also when you click on the heart. You can also tell how much the item is before the sale!! Love this app would recommend it to everyone!! :) ### 5/5 — LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS APP!!! *2013-11-20, version 9.2* I have been a Black Friday shopper for about 5 years now and it's a family traditional now everyone comes from all over we eat and we shop till we drop!! This app is awesome to use because I can look up everything I want instead of taking a bunch of papers with me and circling all the items I want. This app is just a click away and it works AMAZING!!! I have already planned everything I want to get from using this app! It's great and I recommend it to anybody that's a Black Friday shopper!! :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
