Keeps crashing. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, no change. Still no ability to search for trucks based on bed and/or wheelbase length. Also, crew cabs and newer "four door" style extended cabs are lumped together. UPDATE: This app is getting steadily worse instead of better despite "improvements". Now it won't login at all. Try to login with email, it says to use Facebook. Try to use Facebook, it says 'checking a few things' and never goes further. If the screen times out, it starts over.

I used to use this app on a pretty regular basis. I loved the simplicity and ease of searching for vehicles. More recently however, the app seems to be very unresponsive. It sometimes won't allow me to search and tells me to enter my zip code, after entering the zip it still won't allow searching. When I update my search filters it takes several minutes to update the results.

I like the wide range of selections of vehicles plus the instant car fax availability. I haven't had any problems with the login nor the saving of favorite vehicles. I'm planning to purchase a vehicle within the next couple of weeks. As of 11/1/20, I haven't been able to save any favorites as before and the app won't allow me to delete saved favorites that are not available anymore.

Update needs a lot of work. Over half of my saved searches disappeared and half of the remaining ones became very basic (started showing all Corvettes, instead of just ZR1s, etc.). When I recreated missing searches, I couldn't add a custom name to them anymore, making it hard to decipher which one I want to click. Saved cars aren't sortable anymore, they just show up in some random order. Search keywords are also gone so you can't narrow searches by package i.e. 1LE. Big downgrade!

This app is very well-organized and user-friendly, but I had a couple of problems. It always asked that my location be on while I use it (didn't require it though). I also gave up on trying to sign into my account after changing my password twice and the app saying that the password was wrong after both changes. It also had some connectivity issues, but maybe that was just my sometimes spotty WiFi. If those things weren't a problem I'd give this app 5 stars! I definitely reccomend it :)

Well it's time to find a new car app what used to be the very best used car app for years is now absolute trash after the update. Difficult to navigate It lacks a simplicity of the old version that made it such a pleasure to use. Even features such as search by keyword have been eliminated which were extremely useful when trying to pinpoint very niche vehicles. Also you used to be able to calculate your payment and apply it to all vehicles in your saved vehicles which is no longer possible. RIP

Quite frankly the worst update for the app by far. I never leave reviews but I have used this app for years and the fact you can no longer specify price is ridiculous. Also I liked when I'd reopen the app the filters were left unchanged. Now it's set to match whatever advertisement you're running.. annoying. Also you're website is abysmal.. how about letting the user select everything they want filtered first then clicking a button that implements all of the users selections at once rather than one at a time forcing you to scroll around to find where you left off because the page reloaded. Please bring back more specific price filtering it's annoying having to scroll through vehicles you could previously filter out. Wasn't that the point of it in the first place?

This app did it's job! I found a car and I am happy with the purchase. I can research within the app, save searches and listings, and it updates quickly. This was also the easiest app to use of several I tried. I was able to find a unique used vehicle, for a great price, in great condition. As long as the seller uses the listing options adequately (like lots or relevant pics) you get everything you need. I plan to keep the app installed to look up exotics until I need it again.

Update June 22, 2019: The search function on this app is broken. For the SUV body style, the features of Third Row Seating, Leather Seats, Backup Camera, and Bluetooth are ignored. The other search settings (e.g. drive train, price, body style) work. The rating is reduced a point because of this problem. Great tool with ability to save favorites in searches for specific models for certain features in a range of years. Needs to load more results. The 50 limit is too limiting for the mobile app.

Latest update has destroyed functionality. I have used this app for years, now all the sudden with the update cars that have sold and I removed from my saved list have somehow returned. Also you used to to be able to sort the saved list by add date, price, auto maker, etc. Gone, all gone. Also the per car saved email notifications are annoying as hell. I turned it off but I still get them... SOOO useful!

The newest update of the app took away one of the best features the previous versions had....the ability to save your favorite dealers....for quicker access to their inventory. Now it just has a save feature for cars your interested in and your recent searches. The fact of having to look up a dealer everytime you want to see what they've recently gotten in their inventory is very frustrating. If it had the "save dealer" feature added back would be great and would prompt me to give the app 5 stars

Opposite day??Great site,usually. The streamlining of preference as a concept is one of the greatest human innovations to come from captured consumer data. That said, app doesn't demand much, and does what it's supposed to. Except filter and sort what I select. Makes me wonder what I may be missing as far as inventory from the web version. Specifically, I filter OUT sales WITHOUT pics. I get a selection of options with no pics. Unlclick selection, I get the mix... more stars when addressed. 🤷

Hello. I really like this app. It provides all the info I need which includes the Carfax history. Not sure if the dealership is providing them or the app, but i appteciate that. However, a few weeks in and my app is starting to fail. Basically when I open it, it freezes and exits. I uninstalled and reinstalled and same thing. It just started happening today but just wanted to let this be known. Not sure if it's on my end of the app's.

The new app has made me do something I never thought I would do: delete it and switch to Autotrader. The search is a mess and since there isn't an auto reset button on the front page of the app and need to change the parameters of the search, you have to go through each item to reset or clear. It is so frustrating, I gave up. I had this app on my 3G in 2009 and have had it on every phone since. Also, where did the listings go? Listings have dropped considerably.

New App is worse. Sooo much wasted white space, it's eye searing. Feels like the pictures got smaller so we could instead see more blank space, which is perfect because I like to see as little relevant information at one time as possible.... Also it didn't transfer all my saved searches, and ones that did are missing parameters. Pops up to tell me it found zero cars for a search while showing me the correct results. This is a mess. Someone should be fired for thinking this was a good idea.

I used to use this app all the time to do automobile research and to shop local inventory. After the app completely changed earlier this summer it has just about been unusable. The search is more difficult to navigate, half of the dealerships I used to see are missing and their expert review pages are not as thorough as they once were. I have been waiting to see if an update would come and fix it but it has not. Looks like I will have to find a different app to use. Disappointing.

Wish I could give the new update zero stars. I used to love this. I used to be able to look at all the reviews and actually be able to sort easily. They also removed certain price points, I had budgets of $11-12k and now the only options that are even close are $10k or $15k. Sorting through to try to find cars under $12k specifically is a pain. Not to mention that half the listings now are either broken or missing images. This is ridiculous. "Faster and better than ever!" Straight lies.

Great app. Smooth and easy interface. Love the options and filters. Only thing that would make this app perfect is monitoring what is being posted, for instance certain features on cars you check mark to filter out unwanted cars, a lot of the dealerships put options on the vehicles when they really don't have those options just so they can get more views. Makes it annoying to look at a car they doesn't have everything you're specifically looking for.

It's a great app and all, but, a lot of the saves I've made are being removed. Literally just removed, not sold or unlisted, just removed from my save, meaning I have to go back and re-save the vehicle. Please fix this! It's very time consuming and tedious! Next thing is a request, but if we could report listings that would be great because I've noticed that there are about 50 or more different listings from the same seller for the same car!

Whenever I close the app, even for a moment, I have to log in each time I go back to it. That never used to happen. The app would just remember my device. 6/24/23. Now, the app won't alert me to cars in my saved list that are no longer available. I have to go to my laptop and open the desktop version in order to delete the cars that are no longer available. This is very inconvenient. My saved list shows 30 cars, yet I can't save anymore because the app thinks I've saved 100.
