App doesn't work & PAYING FOR PUBLIC LOCATIONS LOLL

this app is a flop, it doesn't work at all and then when you finally get it too you have to pay to see public locations. feels like a huge money trap. i'll just stick to instagram and using the map to search locations there. super disappointed with all the buzz Emma created around it and the boujie trips for it to be such a bad app. maybe put the money back into making the app actually work and not charge for every location.

glitchy for no reason

i love emma but this app is so hard to use for literally no reason. i can’t sign up for an account still and it is soooo slow. it’s been a long time since the app launched idk why these issues haven’t been fixed.

Gatekeeping, glitchy, money-grab

I’ve followed Emma for a while and wanted to like this app so badly but the concept is absolutely ridiculous. Paying for public locations that no one owns? Also it’s supposed to help smaller creators… in what world? For $1.99 per location? You can’t search anything on the app and features are super inconsistent between pages. Why is it that you can only see the number of “unlocks” on the main feed? An app called Bimble does this better and for free. Really hated this app and i can’t imagine how it’s profitable at all

It doesn’t work

I have tried to sign up with multiple emails and I have never made it past the signup section of the process. The screen freezes, and then when I try to create an account again it says that there is already an account with my email. When I try to log in it says account doesn’t exist. Just a bunch of contradictions. I’ve wasted a lot of time unfortunately trying to get this to work

Concept seems so out of touch

Its pretty much a gate keeping app where you purchase every location you want… instead of just sharing for free because no one owns that location anyways…

FAQ

What does The Scout App do?

The Scout App is a social media platform designed for discovering and sharing unique locations around the world. Users can browse a feed of nearby spots, explore locations for future trips or shoots, and unlock detailed information like coordinates and shooting tips provided by other users.

How can I earn money with The Scout App?

You can earn money by becoming a 'Scouter' and sharing your own curated locations. When other users 'Unlock' your shared location, you receive a commission. This incentivizes users to share their unique discoveries and perspectives.

How do I unlock a location?

To unlock a location, you will need to make an in-app purchase to acquire 'unlocks'. Once you have unlocks, you can use them to reveal the exact coordinates and any shooting tips or advice provided by the Scouter who shared the location. You can then use the app to get directions to the location.

What kind of locations can I find or share?

You can find and share a wide variety of locations, from scenic spots in your neighborhood to unique places for photography or travel. The app aims to streamline the process of finding new and exciting backdrops, whether you are in your home city or abroad.

Is The Scout App free to use?
