Good app usually, but the share button doesn't work on Android so I have to just send screenshots to friends instead of direct links. Also it takes a few seconds too long to clear notifications. It is good for what it does though, I haven't found better apps and I've looked around. The car section is also poor because you can't easily filter out dealers who pretend to be individuals and reporting them has no effect that I've seen.

Feed is cluttered with ads, dont know whats real offer up post or sponser click to another site. Wish it would go back to how it was years ago with just posts on search or feed. The confusion makes me not want to use the app at all. I just want to click on real offers from people NOT stores. Searching something within distance doesnt work. I press pick up only, and less than 30 miles and it shows me stuff over 30 miles away.

Account was compromised, then deleted. They restored it, and not even 24 hours later, they removed it again. It was a good app, and now it's full of spammers and scammers, sellers don't respond, and many listings have been left up there for years with no update or response. Selective enforcement of the TOS. Ads are everywhere, and many look just like a normal listing does. Used car dealerships flood the used car listings. It's a free-for-all. The app has been lagging for years.

May 2024 update- now there's random full screen ads. Removing the app now, since I can block the ads if I just use the website. The app is very dumbed down and otherwise extremely annoying to use, top examples: 1. Search modifiers don't work 2. Resets to local+shipping with every new search, rather than saving your settings 3. Ads look too much like other listings, frequently click on them and end up going to an external link

Has to be the WORST merchant app around. I've "purchased" probably 12 different items or more, one person cancelled because they didn't want to ship the item and another person responded and said they didn't want to ship the item. Otherwise not a single person has responded to any offer or replied to any messages I've sent...So unless it's actually local, MAYBE a transaction will occur. Would rate zero stars if possible. Totally worthless app. Not to mention ads that interrupt and a slow UI

OfferUp has unfortunately gone down hill incredibly quickly. It was my go to buy/sell/trade app for years and now it's suddenly terrible. 1. There are now ads anytime you message someone. 2. It constantly touts premium as the better service instead of the standard. 3. The new community guidelines are INSANE!!! No indication that your message to someone "violates community guidelines" or an explanation of what you said. As an active user, use anything else now.

The app is okay, but when I'm scrolling a ad will pop up & I usually just exit the app right away & reopen. I also dislike that there are also ads when I am looking at a particular item. For instance once I click on it. It redirects me to a website. I don't want to buy from a website. I want to buy my item from locals only. This app is good but be prepared to waste some time accidentally clicking on a ad or a pop up ad comes up.

Nice app! Some items are marked down to affordable prices. Stores & pawn shops will soon have to keep up. I have bought items in person that I couldn't see myself in fate; buying online. It's wonderful to see items in real life, before buying them. Also, I have sold lots of old stuff that I otherwise would've just let lay around collecting dust or would've just tossed away. Edit: 3 yrs later, still using Offer Up, there've been lots of changes. Seeing more & more ads. Changing rating to 4 stars.

Overall the app is worthwhile but there's one MAJOR flaw (and one smaller flaw).... Navigating this app is unreasonably slow. Everything takes forever to load and if you try to create a post, you better have a strong Internet connection because it's required for photos to upload otherwise it will fail to create it. I've wasted time on multiple occasions because of this. Response to Developer: Appreciate reaching out but it's nothing on my end. It's just how the app is optimized.

Long time user here. The app is very good and well put and I always recommend it to anyone. You can search and sort by price, distance, and categories easily. Listing is also easy. 4 stars bc of the "see more/see less" function of the item description, you only see the first 3 lines. I think it should be deleted and just display the entire description like in Craigslist. Many times I've met with people just to waste time and have awkward moments bc they didn't read the entire description.

Very unhappy with offerUp always having problems logging in and verifying. Then for no reason I get locked out saying I was in violation... But doesn't explain how. Can't ever seem to be able to keep my password. They always want me to reset it and verifying but won't let me verify my damn phone number. I don't recommend it to anyone I know. I sold one thing and then boom can't access it anymore.

Way too many ads, and full screen ads. Makes me give up on using it all together. Removed the age of postings, so no idea if something has been listed for months or hours... Notifications can't be customized, so it's either ads and alerts and messages or nothing. So I choose nothing, and have to enable notifications as needed. Dumb, profit only driven decisions.

Not able to share additional photos with potential buyers within the app. They don't recommend communicating outside of the app, but sharing additional photos is pretty fundamental in buying and selling. Also do not recommend using this app if you plan to ship your goods. They charge ridiculous fees from buyer AND seller. Works well for local transactions.

Seriously, this app has had one of the worst downfalls I have seen in quite some time. From sellers who have listings with no intent to actually sell anything to items that say shipping but have no means to ship. It's been a struggle to even find anything to actually buy and to get contact from anyone if you're not a premium member(which is really ridiculous to have a subscription for this app). Hopefully, this app will be revamped for the buyers because it's been a waste of time for me.

All but useless! Filters don't work. Put in a parameters like "nearby" and/or within 30 miles brings up items many items hundreds and thousands of miles away!! Even listings that say local pickup only. Listings are not removed if sold. Also seeing many scams where items are shown at a great price, yet very suspect. Especially if you attempt to get additional information. NO way to contact the OfferUp staff for issues.

Worst app ever. Searches are irrelevant. Notifications are irrelevant. It keeps sending me new listings for shoes and I have never once searched for or clicked on any ads for shoes. They send you a welcome email that tells you they're giving you a $30 gift card, but every time you get the email, the link goes to a "page does not exist". Overall, a huge waste of time.

This app now posts long ads that deliberately place download buttons where you would click to go back or forward to a different screen/menu. So as you are clicking to try and navigate in the app, you accidentally click on downloads of sponsor ads. What a horrible way to make a few cents. This app was once great and has become garbage. They have dramatically reduced traffic as well. You're better off with Facebook Marketplace.

Downloaded and made an account because I found a crazy deal on a graphics card. Purchased it, $600 was taken from my account, item was set to sold, so far so good. Next morning, I wake up to an email saying that my account violated community guidelines and had been terminated. My payment was reversed and the listing was reopened. I check immediately and it had already been sold again. Support gets back to me and told me it was just a "technical issue". All around shady experience. Not worth it.

Don't bother. I've been using offer up for years. This is just ridiculous. Full screen ads that randomly pop up and you have to wait for them to time out. Then you have to worry about the filters not working. I'm not looking for things 80 minutes away from me with shipping, but try to tell the app that. Doesn't matter. And how hard is it to remove listing's from 2, 3, 4 years ago? The people are not going to answer. Sc4olling in listing's you don't want to see & aren't available anymore for ads

Used to really like this app, but if feels like something is broken now. Multiple searches with a specific term in a specific category end up with a bunch of unrelated results from other categories. It's like hunting through a ton of spam. Super annoying and defeats the whole purpose. Just started in past 3-4 weeks. Did an app reinstall, etc to try to fix but no change. Doesn't do it on all searches, about 2/3 are clean. Please help, I'd be happy to update if this gets fixed. Thx!
