User reviews

Been here since 2019 with over 72,000 posts to date @g63amgsheldon

Love using the app to keep track of cars I spot. Joined the app back in summer of 2019 as a 15 year old car enthusiast, now 7 years later I have loved being able to keep track of the thousands of cars I have spotted along with keeping track of the 30+ vehicles I have owned since.

A few areas of criticism and things that could be improved.

As someone who has posted thousands of individual vehicles I would love to have a personal search function to see only the vehicles I have posted personally. This would certainly save users time and drastically cut down on plate to vin look ups.

Which brings me to my second point: as someone who posts hundreds of cars a week I would like to have unlimited plate look ups so that I can contribute as much as possible to cars history and the VINwiki platform and community at large.

Thanks Ed and team for an amazing app and considering adding features to improve the user experience!

May have been good long ago

Lots of the features don’t work. The map view doesn’t work. This app should be something and it’s just not.

To late

Needed a profile share button years ago. Self driving cars are here. The driver is Ai now. RIP Gallardo dream car.

Update when?!

Can we get a profile share button?! This app is cool but needs an update!!
