Great idea. Not functional. When there's a drop don't expect to have the ability to purchase them. This app is more for window shopping and the illusion of being able to make a purchase. You'll spend lots of time on the page waiting for the option to buy. The option usually only pops up when the sneakers have already sold out. You'll constantly have to enable to push notifications because it won't save. Even if you stay logged in and have payment saved, you'll lose that option during checkout.

Look...forget about the fact that copping can be downright impossible even under the best of circumstances. My issue is with the stability of the application itself. Every couple of months I have to uninstall and reinstall it just to see anything. And even then it doesn't necessarily work. It is the most unreliable app I use (well, try to use) on a regular basis. As I write this, the "Feed", "In Stock", and "Upcoming" tabs are all blank, even after a reinstall.

A lot of potential, but not ready for primetime. Maybe the iOS version is better, but the Android version doesn't have a lot of the functionality it touts. Doesn't refresh automatically, doesn't notify you of drops you ask for notifications on, sends notifications that lead nowhere. It's good as a calendar from releases, but there are better sources for that limited functionality.

Terrible for trying to buy shoes during limited edition drops. I've tried on 4 separate occasions and during these drops I've never once been able to even get in the queue on the app. It would take ages to load, ask for password verification, go through another load screen, and then I would get a system error and it would kick me out. Tried it on the website from my phone, order went through and was placed in a queue with no problems within 15 seconds.

App used to work, but like all the other reviews: drops are "Sold Out" the instant they release as are drawings. The only way to enter a drawing is logging out and back in, but typically the server is down at that point so getting a hyped pair of shoes without a bot on the app is impossible. This has been occurring for probably about a year or so and nothing has been fixed.

Something has been happening with the app lately. Super slow, crashes, and my phone freezes every time I join a drawing. I can't log in at all so I have to use my phones browser (Chrome). I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app and also restarted my phone, but nothing changed. I also haven't been selected once this year, 2023. Last year, I was only selected 3 times, but I was happy with that, and in the previous years, I was getting selected at least twice.

I'm continually being logged out, get several network errors when trying to enter a draw, it can take up to 20 tries to get it to work right. I've missed out on a few shoes because of this including the most recent draw I was finally able to enter after several failed attempts. I was in line, I minimized the app (not closed it) and then it promptly kicked me out of line and gave me several errors when I tried to rejoin again.

App has become unusable. Automatically signed out everytime you close the app. Notifications turn themselves off all the time. Network errors when trying to check out all the time, and that is when you are lucky enough to have the "purchase" option show up for you. App has always been a bit finicky, but it has become absolutely HORRIBLE. Makes it nearly impossible to have any shot at a drop, and almost just as hard to enter a draw.

Barely works most of the time. Long load times for any page (sometimes 5-10 second) which often seem to need to refetch the same data rather than simply rerendering when switching tabs. When you do get "ENTERED" that's often the end of it—not even a notification that you lost these days like you used to get when the app first launched. Acts like it didn't even happen. No trace other than the screenshots I make sure to take.

This is ridiculous..... This is the third or fourth time I have not been able to try for a shoe. I tried for the lost and found Jordan 1s. First my system was moving slowly, then when trying to sign in, there was an error message. Anytime I went in to try for the shoe it would send me to a black screen with an error message. I went out the app and refreshed it and when I went back in, it wouldn't even give me the button to join the draw. I could see the time but I couldn't try for ANY size....

App is trash on Android! I do like that your team updated the UI but still not a great experience, I always need to go onto the Desktop to submit my entries. Also notice the Apple version has more to offer. Trying to vote and participate in polls but again still need to do that on the browser. Fix this app, not able to login and the join button for draws are always gone!

The sign in experience on Android is complicated for no reason. To purchase something I have to enter my password 3 times and each time is met with a 1-2 minute load time. This app doesn't work with Google passwords, which means you have to pick a simple password. The entire point of this app is to purchase something quickly when it "drops". They put so many obstacles in the way of the user, it is impossible to accomplish. The user just gets frustrated and gives up.

I dont usually write reviews, but it has been annoying me that I have not gotten push notifications for the SNKRS app in months/a year and it seems like this issue affects others as well. I have my notifications turned on in the app as well as in the settings on my phone (Galaxy s8+) but still nothing, so I miss drops that I have opted to be notified of. Notifications definitely still work though cause I do receive notifications about my draw not being picked but that's it. Please fix this.

Every so often and without warning, it'll stop showing and refreshing the upcoming drops (completely up to date app). This forces me to Uninstall and reinstall just to keep up the feed, if it happens the day before a drop, I won't know until the drop happens and it doesn't switch to open. The MOST frustrating thing however, is that every other drop goes from "coming soon" to "sold out" immediately. So I'm forced to waste valuable time, trying to get exclusives, to log out of the app and back in.

It worked fine at first, but then the upcoming release tab would stop showing anything and I would have to force close and reopen it. It finally got to the point where that didn't work. Yesterday I reinstalled it, and that seemed to work. I set three notifications for today's Sacai drop but never got one. Then I sat on the app waiting for the draw today and nothing happened. I force closed it at 9:02, and then all the notifications popped up and it told me the draw was over and it was sold out.

Every time a shoe drops, the app gets buggy. One example is the buttons stop working no matter where I tap. In addition, even if I click to buy the moment a shoe goes up, seems like bots are always getting all the shoes. Or, it processes then nothing happens, or an error messages pops up. App seems to work more smoothly on iPhones. Extremely frustrating to use on Android devices.

Would be 0 if possible. Unless you're a bot, good luck. I can't even get the app to open. Tried for 45 mins for the drop today and kept getting "we've encountered an error". Uninstalling app. If you want to make people try for the drop, at least let them be able to access to said drop. Now I know why rating is so low. PoS

Useless for major drops. It'll crash, not process payments, fail to notify, etc, on release day. Update**** 3-20-24 It still crashes on high heat drops, but a little less than before. There are still times when a "No service" error will pop up no matter if you're on wifi of cellular. Now! Scratch draws...forget about anything like that since it seems Apple users get priority on those drops while Android users lag behind by roughly 2-3mins. This I know from personal experience.

The app magically doesn't send notifications right before any big drop. You can have all the settings for notifications turned and have them allowed in your phone settings. The application reminded 1 week before a drop, but failed to do it 15 minutes before. This is consistent with almost 90% or launches and drops.

Went to try to get a shoe. I was on at 7am for the drop. I just moved houses, and they wouldn't let me change my address on the order. Took 8 minutes to be able to change the address, because YOUR app kept giving me an error when I would try to change the city and zip code on the address. I had to reset the app multiple times. By the time I finished, the shoes sold out. Great app.
