### 3/5 — Why do you need to know where I am located?

*2023-06-15, version 2.0.3*

ETA 6/15/23:  another food truck summer rolls around and I was hoping that Truckster addressed their privacy practices in their latest update. Still haven’t. They still ask for permission to know your location even though there is no reason they need it. EVERY.  SINGLE. TIME.  AND THEY ASK YOU 5 TIMES ONCE YOU SAY NO IN DIFFERENT WAYS.  Just so you know, this is a quintessential example of what the Federal Trade Commission calls dark patterns … and it is very much illegal.  

*. *. *. 

It is OBNOXIOUS that it takes multiple clicks plus a return from settings to ignore the ask for my location EVERY TIME YOU USE THE APP. I know where I live. You do not need to know this. If I have told you I don’t want to provide that information, STOP ASKING. I have major privacy concerns with this app.

### 2/5 — Site is Unstable and unreliable

*2022-11-30, version 1.2.9*

Trying to preorder for a neighborhood event and the app keeps crashing.  Great support for small business.

### 3/5 — Why do you need to know where I am located?

*2022-09-01, version 1.2.8*

It is OBNOXIOUS that it takes multiple clicks plus a return from settings to ignore the ask for my location EVERY TIME YOU USE THE APP.  I know where I live. You do not need to know this.

### 3/5 — Not in my location

*2022-06-14, version 1.2.6*

Just an average review. 

I downloaded this based on a recommendation from a friend. I live in College Station, TX. Truckster has no service here. The app says there is service in Houston so I tried looking there. No trucks populated. I know there are many food trucks in Houston so there is a problem with the search function for that city. 

Hopefully they will add service in College Station since it is home to Texas A&M University and fix there Houston search function.

### 2/5 — Missing Permanent PDX Locations

*2022-06-13, version 1.2.6*

Unfortunately useless for Portland, because it’s missing over a dozen permanent food cart venues, including dozens and dozens of trucks. Some of these carts have been available for years, at the same locations. 

I can find more food carts and more locations using Apple’s Map app, than I can using Truckster, which is designed specifically for the carts. 

The application itself is decent. It’s clunky to turn the “detail ribbon“ off and on, but once you get used to it, it’s easy enough to move around the map and spot marked locations. 

I would be willing to give it a try for another city. But for now, I think they should just remove Portland, Oregon entirely. 

The developer response to a different review suggested that it had something to do with the cold weather, or “lack of events“, but that seems unlikely — as mentioned above, these carts are easily found in other apps, and Internet searches, and have been located at the same address for years.

### 5/5 — I love food trucks

*2021-07-14, version 1.1.7*

Easy to use and easy to find the trucks I like. Thanks!

### 5/5 — LOVE IT!

*2021-07-09, version 1.1.5*

I’m always trying to support small businesses and food trucks are a great way to do it. I love this app because it makes it that much easier for me to find and support these small local businesses.

### 2/5 — Confused

*2020-06-30, version 0.9.2*

So I have tried using this app multiple times however every time I click on the open now filter it does not show where the trucks location are at the time I’m looking. 

It only shows where they will be the next day. Which is not helpful. If I have the wrong setting or something please tell me. However, so far am not a fan.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2020-05-22, version 0.9.1*

You need to make the menu descriptions darker text... you can't read them

**Developer response:** We appreciate the feedback! We will incorporate darker text for the menu descriptions in our next version, thanks!

### 5/5 — Great app- would love to see more trucks and breweries

*2020-02-22, version 0.8.4*

Just found out about this app- incredibly well done! Would love to see the community grow more, but a really great platform!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-06-01, version 3.0.1*

This app is utterly useless. The app has only 1 truck showing in the entire DC. I just happen to drive down the street and see 15 to 20 trucks. None of them were showing on the app

### 1/5 — No range

*2024-11-09, version 2.2.1*

Very disappointed. Only covered one county in California

### 1/5 — Great idea, poor execution

*2024-05-30, version 2.1.0*

I love the idea of gathering all the food truck info and messaging it out to the public.  But it still has only 10% of the local food trucks listed.  Further, clicking on a specific food truck schedule gives me a blank screen (bug).  Also, I could not see the times for when the truck was available at that location.  Sorry, but I’ll have to delete it again and wait for someone else to develop something better.

### 1/5 — Dead

*2022-03-14, version 1.2.6*

Either dead app or not updating for Portland

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-08-02, version 1.1.9*

Doesn’t work. Error message without explaining why.

### 1/5 — Ehhh

*2021-07-04, version 1.1.5*

This app is honestly miserable to use. Takes all day to load and has a pretty crappy inventory of trucks. Half the trucks don't show up. Location is finicky. Deleted this app after like an hour.

### 1/5 — Cheats at Sign in with Apple. How is this allowed on the App Store?

*2021-02-27, version 1.0.5*

I didn’t really want an app to order at the food truck, but it’s COVID times, I get it, every little bit of limiting contact helps, so I downloaded it. Did not want to set up an account, but luckily this app offers Sign in with Apple. Great! Tap it and go. Getting ready to check out with my order when this app throws up a pop-up saying they noticed I’m using Sign In with Apple, and how sometimes those forwarded emails don’t go through (eye roll), and demanding I hand over my actual email address. Instead of offering an, “I’m an adult, I’ll take my chances” button, they just force you to give an email or, I guess, you can back out and just not eat. It’s winter here, my family is hungry, so I gave them my email. Felt totally scammed. Can’t wait to see who they’re going to sell it to!

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2020-10-04, version 0.9.8*

Submitted our order and the truck did not receive it. Does not update properly. Have to kill it then reopen it.

### 1/5 — They really want notifications turned on...

*2020-08-01, version 0.9.4*

App notifies incessantly if you don't have notifications turned on. Even when you acknowledge that you want notifications turned off the app brings you to the app-specific settings screen to approve turning on notifications again and again. 

When I opened the app today it was blank and didn’t do anything.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2020-05-28, version 0.9.1*

Loaded this app after hearing about it from friends. Still hasn’t worked. “Error” keeps occurring.

### 5/5 — Truckster: The Smart Choice for Booking Food Trucks and Catering services

*2026-03-25, version 3.0.1*

If you’re looking for catering for your next event, Truckster is the way to go.

Truckster and the vendors make it incredibly easy to book food trucks for any occasion—whether it’s a birthday, corporate event, music festival, or block party. What really stands out is the variety of vendors. From different cuisines to service styles like food trucks, pop-ups, and drop-offs, they truly have something for every type of event and vision.

Everyone is highly professional, responsive, and attentive. Communication is quick and efficient, and they do an excellent job of focusing on the details that matter most. Truckster and the vendors take the time to understand your catering needs and bring your vision to life, which makes the entire process smooth and stress-free.

If you want a reliable, well-organized, and high-quality catering experience, I highly recommend Truckster for your next event. Hands down, one of the best services out there.

### 5/5 — So Convenient!

*2023-05-02, version 1.3.4*

Love this app and those that work for it like Katelyn! I needed to book a food truck and this app & Katelyn helped me find & book a food truck with minimal hassle for the date I wanted.

### 5/5 — Such a cool app

*2022-10-27, version 1.2.9*

Awesome easy AND helpful!

### 5/5 — Best Food Truck App

*2022-03-16, version 1.2.6*

Hands down, Truckster is the best app for finding and booking food trucks. The customer service is unparalleled and they helped make my event scheduling easy. Definitely hit these guys up for food truck catering.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2022-03-10, version 1.2.6*

Love using this app to order my food :)

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2021-12-30, version 1.2.5*

This is a great app to find food trucks that are near and far. Definitely worth downloading to find food trucks near you and available trucks for catering and events!

### 5/5 — Love Truckster !

*2021-12-16, version 1.2.5*

Loved working with their team! They made finding a food truck simple and fast. 10/10 would recommend to a friend. If you’re in the Austin area make sure to try El Xolo Tacos.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Trucks

*2021-08-17, version 1.1.9*

These guys are on top of it. Great job of making it easy to find the truck and food you are craving. Love using this app and discovering new Trucks!

### 5/5 — Game Changer

*2021-07-18, version 1.1.7*

This app is gosh darn incredible! You can see food trucks around you, search for food trucks you like, and also mobile order directly from them. Love this app. Can’t wait to see Truckster pop up in other cities

### 5/5 — Much needed!

*2021-07-14, version 1.1.7*

I LOVE this app! I’ve tried out a few others for finding food trucks in Austin, but they were very clunky and not user friendly at all. Truckster is sleek, easy to use, and makes it much much easier for me to find food trucks all over Austin.
