### 3/5 — How to cancel a sale listing?

*2026-08-31, version 11.9.1*

I’m only use this app maybe twice. The second time the host notified the participants that she was going to have to cancel. I tried several times to figure out how to update or cancel the app. Times. I eventually had to do something like report this as fraud or something. What is the answer to updating or canceling a Yard Sale?

### 2/5 — No existen

*2026-08-22, version 11.8.2*

Cuando llegamos no hay nada

### 4/5 — Surprised Orlando

*2026-08-15, version 11.8.1*

Orlando doesn’t seem to use this app as much as where I came from but I still enjoy it wish it allowed more pictures

### 3/5 — So many ads!

*2026-07-18, version 11.7.1*

So many ads I can’t distinguish what are yard sale pictures and what are ad pictures. Difficult to navigate with ads everywhere

### 3/5 — Suggestion for some improvement

*2026-07-16, version 11.7.1*

This is overall grade up, but I feel like it should be a requirement to post pictures especially because people drive far for certain yard sales and it should be a requirement to post the price ranges of what they’re selling. Gas is expensive and it’s very difficult when you have to drive far away, so I hope they can make these improvement.

### 3/5 — Adds

*2026-04-17, version 11.2.2*

Used to be good without the adds. Now gotta wait for Adds to finish smh

### 3/5 — Only a few yard sales

*2026-01-03, version 11.0.0*

No one uses it

### 2/5 — Misleading

*2025-07-26, version 10.9.1*

Too many ads to pull you away from finding a sale. Poor UX. Ads designed intentionally to look like pics of a garage sale. For this reason I will switch to other sources.

### 1/5 — WORTHLESS unless you’re paying money.

*2025-06-02, version 10.9.0*

I can imagine that this would be a great app!! Unfortunately it is 100% a horrible “free” app; there’s nothing you can do on the free version. Save your time unless you’re ready and willing to start immediately paying for this service.

### 1/5 — One of the most basic things is on a subscription paywall

*2025-04-17, version 10.7.2*

In order to view more photos you got to subscribe at this point you can just search it up on Craigslist or Facebook marketplace

### 1/5 — Forever

*2024-10-14, version 10.2.3*

Once you start using this app, can not delegate!

### 3/5 — Auctions Should not be Allowed

*2024-10-12, version 10.2.3*

Looked up garage sales today and clicked on several and they were auctions. I thought this was a garage sale app?

### 1/5 — App gave my phone malware that wont go away

*2026-06-11, version 11.5.0*

After downloading this app I keep getting messages that I have a virus and doesnt allow memto use apps

### 1/5 — Directs to spam

*2026-05-28, version 11.3.1*

Downloaded app. It populated sales nearby. When I touched on a sale I was interested in, it said my account was restricted and directed me to the App Store to download “Cleanup Phone Super Cleaner.”

Good idea, but deleted.

### 1/5 — Do not download this app.

*2026-05-15, version 11.3.1*

There was a box to click on in the app that said “more information” and it sent me to a porn site.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-04-10, version 11.2.2*

50% of sales don’t exist

### 1/5 — App is now a potato.

*2026-03-01, version 11.1.0*

Used to be the best app. Now every single filter is behind a paywall. Want to look at garage sales with a Sunday date? YOU HAVE TO PAY. Also, no sales are showing up in a town with 2 million people. Oh, and that free advertisement they want you to watch to “unlock premium features temporarily?”. Yeah. You’ll watch the ad but nothing changes. As someone who is a subject matter expert in thrift/resale/treasure hunting, this ISN’T it.

### 1/5 — More ads than content

*2026-01-10, version 11.0.0*

Literally more ads than content. Even if you pay it’s trash

### 1/5 — This app is a ghost town

*2025-11-05, version 10.9.2*

Not a single post

### 1/5 — requires money

*2025-08-23, version 10.9.2*

seems like the only way to use the app is to pay for it.... none of the settings or features are available on the free version. also doesn't show any sales outside of the 20 mile radius of the zip code i first entered (map shows me moving, but only shows sales around my first location). so yeah, i don't recommend, unfortunately.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me add yard sale

*2025-06-15, version 10.9.0*

I’m having a yard sale on the side of a street and it won’t let me use the street name. It’s not a house. It’s just on the corner of 2 streets but claims it needs a full home address.

### 1/5 — Save your time

*2025-06-06, version 10.9.0*

I tried multiple times to like this app. The concept is great. The execution is just poor! There are almost never any yard sales listed, but I can find dozens online. Save yourself the trouble, if it is useful it’s not free.

### 5/5 — Keeps giving Malware Ads

*2026-05-16, version 11.3.1*

Using the App & it keeps telling me I have Malware on my iPhone, I know I don’t so it’s the App that allows Malware App so users becare of its Ads!

### 5/5 — Best to follow

*2026-04-25, version 11.2.2*

Like this app a lot. Much better years ago though when Craig’s list garage sales transferred over. Not many people in Yorba linda post on this site

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2026-04-18, version 11.2.2*

I use this app every weekend. It’s so helpful in helping me find deals🤩

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2025-10-04, version 10.9.2*

This is the app that we dreamed about. It saves us so much time on a Friday night trying to find where the garage sales are and it makes it so easy to Google map them after we find them on this app. The link is great we so appreciate it. We love garage sailing.

### 5/5 — Bring back connectivity with Craig’s list and Facebook marketplace.

*2025-07-27, version 10.9.1*

Yall are missing out. When this first came out it connected with Craig’s list. I guess they got all butthurt and ended that. This app cold easily be the best thing ever if had some deal where there could once again mirror other listing sites.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2025-07-19, version 10.9.0*

Good recommendations for yard sales

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-06-03, version 10.9.0*

Awesome app exactly what I needed

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-10-05, version 10.2.3*

Showed me where to go!!! Yea

### 5/5 — Fabulous App

*2024-04-13, version 10.1.1*

Had a yard sale today, advertised here & 80%+ of our customers said they found our advertisement here.  Yay!  Thanks for making my life easy!  😊

### 5/5 — I liked this app until…

*2023-02-23, version 9.2.2*

Features that were once free are now subscription only. I used to be able to view Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, but now I only get the current day and Saturday. Everything else is behind a paywall.

I’ve got no issues paying but not when I have to pay for things that used to be included in the free version.
