### 2/5 — New UI is not great

*2026-01-08, version 3.1*

They took away Apple Pay and sign in by texts the previous system was fast and efficient. This one is not.

### 3/5 — Updating backwards

*2025-11-05, version 2.22.01*

My barber moved so it’s that worst time ever again where you have to find a new barber. There used to be this feature where you could see the social media of the barbers who had ones, and it helped find my old barber. For some reason none of the barbers on the app have a social media anymore so you can’t see there work and that sucks…

### 4/5 — Payment

*2025-07-31, version 2.22.01*

I enter a code and it always gave me the message payment failed. Once I took off the promotion code and try to pay again, the payment went through.

### 2/5 — App has bugs but barbers are good

*2025-04-02, version 2.22.01*

The app has bugs they’ve refused to fix for months. I have to use the website to do all my bookings.

### 3/5 — App does what I needs to do but..

*2024-01-10, version 2.3.4*

Every time that I use the app for the first time it works like a charm. I’m able to book a haircut, no problem.

But when I open it and try to use it again… it sends a 2FA code to my phone via email/text. The app does not recognize the very same code it sends. 

Because of this, I find myself uninstalling and reinstalling the application come time when I choose to get another haircut. 

A fix for that would be fantastic. Other than that, it works well.

### 5/5 — Best barber shop in Miami.

*2022-03-30, version 2.0.18*

Gotta go see Tony O in South Miami. He’s the GOAT!

### 5/5 — El sitio adecuado

*2022-02-25, version 2.0.16*

Realmente en este negocio se reúnen los mejores valores de calidad, Atención y precio, aunque como siempre lo más relevante e importante es la atención personalizada de todas las personas que laboran en este lugar, realmente es una barbería que se puede recomendar, la atención del Sr. Juan Carlos Roldan es un ejemplo de profesionalismo.

### 5/5 — Great barber shop, great app

*2021-12-02, version 2.0.14*

I love this barber shop and the app makes booking an appointment super easy.

### 5/5 — Best barbershop experience

*2021-11-29, version 2.0.14*

My son and I have been going here almost three years. Jose has been our barber and we have always had the best service e. He is polite, prompt and always does a great job.

### 3/5 — Gift card

*2021-02-16, version 1.6.475*

Barbershop is 5 stars but app is 3. Can’t pay with gift card over app.

### 1/5 — New version sucks

*2026-02-17, version 3.2*

No ability to use Apple Pay, have to enter credit card information manually each time. What is this, 2015? Old version worked better had better UI this version is a disaster. Prolly gonna go to CostCutters or Hair Cuttery now.

### 1/5 — This rate is for the app

*2026-02-02, version 3.2*

I’ve been a customer of The Spot for a while and have been managing most of my appointments through their app. Today, when I tried to schedule an appointment, I noticed there was a new update. Unfortunately, the update is not working well. My preferred location is no longer showing, and the app doesn’t display the staff schedule by location, which is very important because sometimes I choose a different staff member based on availability.

The app also deleted my saved card information and didn’t allow me to use the quick payment option. I had to enter all my card details manually, and after completing the information three times, it still didn’t save, so I couldn’t complete the reservation.

I ended up having to call the branch to book my appointment. I also heard other customers experiencing the same issue. In my opinion, the new update is not ready yet.

The service itself is still very good—this complaint is only about the app.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-01-26, version 3.2*

The new app is so complicated to navigate, crashes when I try to pay and book an appointment and even charge an unknown amount without a confirmation of any purchase sent to email or message to my phone.

### 1/5 — The new app isn’t good

*2026-01-07, version 3.1*

No Apple Pay, way more difficult to navigate around the app, charges you right away—no bueno.

### 1/5 — Update 2026

*2026-01-07, version 3.1*

They updated it in 2026 and the app is now complete garbage. The UI is horrible the app itself is clunky and the design choices are atrocious. They might as well have used AI as it would’ve been better.

### 1/5 — New app

*2026-01-04, version 3.1*

The new app is hot garbage - slow ui, crashes all the time. The new membership structure is also useless - 60$ to have a “discount” on the huge increase in prices? What a joke.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-05-09, version 2.3.4*

Don’t go. trust me

### 1/5 — Scam

*2023-08-26, version 2.1.2*

They charge $150 for a haircut and then try to steal your money if you show up late … no thanks

### 1/5 — Just walk-in a book.

*2022-09-24, version 2.0.18*

It’s ridiculous you have to pay $3 to book an appointment. Just walk-in and book in advance.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2021-08-03, version 1.7.2*

App shows the Apple Pay button on check-out but it does not work. Very disappointed in the lack of functionality.

### 5/5 — Great place

*2024-08-10, version 2.18.0*

This is a great place for a haircut and beard trim and other things. Warm friendly folks who really take care of you and make you feel welcome. They make a great cafe Cubano and, most important, give great haircuts.
