Please make an iPad app! ### 3/5 — Changed since acquired *2025-02-10, version 2.0.2* I've noticed that since Otta was acquired by WTTJ, I've been getting a LOT less responses and interviews from this app. I found my last job using Otta and recommended it to all. It's also more difficult to apply for roles now, I believe you used to be able to do it in-app. A bit disappointed as I was hoping for the same results I had using Otta a year and a half ago. ### 2/5 — Can’t get the basics right *2025-01-30, version 2.0.2* In general the app is good for job searching, however, they get some of the basics wrong. E.g., they advertised a job for a ‘product manager’ but once I had written a cv and cover letter and applied, the company emailed saying it was for a product design role, meaning it was all a waste of time! ### 2/5 — App freezes constantly *2025-01-15, version 2.0.2* Love this app when it works, freezes up randomly all the time now. If you select a job from the email, it opens the app but then freezes ### 1/5 — Cannot login to the app *2024-11-07, version 2.0.0* Since the name change, I haven’t been able to login to the app at all. Whenever I try, the page to login never loads. I’ve tried opening the login page with chrome, but that always gives me a generic error. Guess the app is useless until this is fixed ### 2/5 — What’s with the name change? *2024-11-05, version 2.0.0* it’s so goofy lol ### 1/5 — Unable to login now *2024-10-23* Just updated Otta to Welcome to the Jungle and unable to sign in to my existing account, just stuck on a landing link page. Disappointed as was previously a great app and jobs platform ### 1/5 — Now a broken app *2024-10-22* Since the update to welcome to the jungle the app no longer works. You cannot login and the identity broker doesn’t work. Clearly terrible testing on the developer side of this new merger. Shame as Otta was good before, but now I’ll have to look elsewhere ### 3/5 — Unable to login since rebranding *2024-10-18, version 2.0.0* I’m unable to login with email since the rebrand. It seems to be stuck on the first screen after tapping login with email. ### 1/5 — Name is so bad *2024-10-10, version 2.0.0* Check the app name half of it is cut off. How is welcome to the jungle a better name than Otta?? ### 1/5 — Same jobs *2024-10-10, version 2.0.0* It’s always the same jobs… I have never get any interviews with this platform… right now I prefer Glassdoor, but the app is well designed! ### 4/5 — Five stars if... *2024-10-07, version 1.0.15* There is a great feature to exclude industries from the search, however I excluded "Sales" and 95% of the jobs include sales of some form in the roles. Otherwise its a great, fast and convenient way to search and apply for jobs. ### 3/5 — Not fit for iPad *2024-08-19, version 1.0.14* Dimensions don’t fit iPad unfortunately ### 1/5 — Accessibility *2024-07-30, version 1.0.14* The problem that I’m having with this app is that I have low vision and the application is not 508 compliant ### 1/5 — Ran out of jobs for me *2024-07-21, version 1.0.13* Doesn't sound very good for the future of the platform! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not that helpful *2026-04-28, version 2.0.7* No idea what’s going on with the job market lately. I had hope for this app, but despite having 15 years of experience and applying for roles I could do blindfolded, I’m just being rejected from all of them. So I’m a bit sceptical of the profile that welcome to the jungle are sending over as it’s clearly not working. I know my profile isn’t being looked at because my portfolio is showing no tracker hits so it looks like all of these applications are just going straight in the bin! Disappointing. Unfortunately there’s no way to flag when you’ve been rejected in the app other than removing them. ### 1/5 — onboarding way too long *2026-04-13, version 2.0.7* broken onboarding on website cant continue. app 15 pages and then I close it. just show the jobs. ### 1/5 — Bad app *2026-02-24, version 2.0.6* I have used this app since it was Otta. Never got one interview, 1000 applications, I have talked to employees about something I am doing wrong no help was offered. Save your time and don’t install it. ### 1/5 — Broken App *2026-02-10, version 2.0.6* 90% of the jobs they advertise have a required field that is ‘LinkedIn Profile’, but you cannot enter your link without getting an error message. Meaning you cannot apply for almost every job you’ll see. Garbage ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-01-08, version 2.0.6* Honestly find a Human recruiter. This is yet another pointless waste of time that you skills spend elsewhere. The very existence of this platform and app is an insult to tech professionals and startups worth their salt everywhere. ### 1/5 — Can’t even create an account. *2025-07-29, version 2.0.4* Fill out the questions, click to create an account with Google. Error. Failing on 2 browsers and the app. ### 1/5 — Make companies disclose salaries *2025-04-03, version 2.0.3* Most jobs now haven’t got salaries listed. Waste of time. Why would I spend hours on a job application to find out the salary is poor? Otta always had the salary disclosed. Why has that changed? ### 1/5 — Disconnect between web and app *2025-02-03, version 2.0.2* There’s a total disconnect between the web experience and the mobile app experience. I completely filled out the profile on the web but when I log into the mobile app, my profile is blank. And when I save a job on the mobile app it doesn’t appear on the web. At first, I was going to chalk it up to a time delay in information syncing, but it’s been days, so apparently it’s just buggy as all hell… A massive waste of time. 😒 ### 1/5 — Unbelievable amount of bugs *2025-01-11, version 2.0.2* Online website site is not connected to app!! I made account online then it wasn’t recognizing me on the app! I made whole new account online the app, and then it stuck on the first page! Deleted the account and now trying to make new account but it freezes at the first page ( important things in new role) !!! ### 1/5 — Can no longer log in *2024-11-17, version 2.0.0* Ever since Otta got bought out, I can’t use the app using my email. Just a never ending log in page. Ended up deleting it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Suggested feature *2025-10-02, version 2.0.5* I noticed on the app there isn’t an option to report if the job listing is non functional or no longer listed. ### 5/5 — Real jobs *2025-07-28, version 2.0.4* Much better than linked in for me ### 5/5 — First ever app review *2025-07-11, version 2.0.4* I have never cared enough to review an app before, but I feel like Welcome to the Jungle deserves it. I’m kind of upset that I didn’t find it sooner, but now that I have it, I’ll never go back to any other sites or apps. This one truly tailors the results to you and your preferences while also helping you to improve your resume by editing the wording and making you more marketable. It also automatically hides your profile from your current employer, which I really appreciate. I was so sick of endlessly scrolling through irrelevant job posts that didn’t meet my criteria, especially salary expectations, but Welcome to the Jungle will filter out jobs that don’t meet your standards or pay less than you require. Also the fact that it’s full of vetted, quality companies and not just a bunch of spam/scam job posts is the best! Oh and the app and its services are FREEEE! This is a true gem of an app for job seekers. ### 5/5 — One of the few job boards that consistently got me interviews! *2025-03-27, version 2.0.3* I’m so grateful to Welcome to the Jungle for being such an awesome tool during my job search this year! I was laid off and it took me a year to find a new role due to this tough job market! WTTJ was one of the job boards that actually matched me with jobs that fit all my criteria and 90% of my interviews I received were thru companies I found through WTTJ. Ultimately received an offer for an awesome company that I found through WTTJ and I’m very grateful! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Amazing job board *2025-03-07, version 2.0.3* Love how organized the job postings are and how tailored and relevant they are to me. Got an offer via welcome to the jungle and highly recommend it. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2024-04-17, version 1.0.12* The best job hunting experience I’ve had. The search preferences make it so easy to have the ideal fit roles fall right into your lap. Game changer!! ### 5/5 — Genuinely VERY impressed *2024-03-21, version 1.0.10* I just created a profile and have already applied for a job. This app is incredible because it finds jobs that are a good match for ME instead of having to endlessly scroll through LinkedIn to find jobs that don’t match my experiences and qualifications. ### 5/5 — Very well done *2024-02-08, version 1.0.8* Is very rare for me to come write a review for an app, but this one deserves. Very well done. Not only you can find jobs you can also manage the jobs/submissions etc, all in 1 place! The way you can search and can optimize it is very good. The tags feature is super useful. I also have some recommendations, but I’ll send that via email ;) Congrats. I am loving it. ### 5/5 — Best in class *2024-02-05, version 1.0.8* What can I say? Otta got me a job with a 50% pay bump to my current salary and made it easy to boot. I will 100% be using Otta in future if I am actively searching again. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2023-11-04, version 1.0.5* The opportunities this platform offers all at the top of your fingers is unreal! Grateful is an understatement! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
