I really wish there was a way to hide 55+ and income restricted units. I don't qualify for these, but they are easily 1/3 of all my results. I would love the ability to block them. I can hide individual listings, but if there are 2 units in the same complex, I can't hide them. Hidden listings still show up in my Feed, which wouldn't be as annoying if the app opened on my search results instead of the Feed. But no, the first thing I see when I open the app are places I don't want to see.

Spam machine. The majority of homes I get in notifications for my "saved searches" are not part of the filters I set up at all. A lot of them don't allow pets when I need them to. Most of them aren't in the areas I filtered to. It's also pretty annoying how I get notifications for places that are "off market". Lots of extra noise when I'm trying to find a place..

I like the neihborhood info with the listings. I can see why others have trouble with the call /email buttons, but my device is long enough that it isn't an issue for me. I wish it would save more info on the device. It saves my last search, so it can, but if I want to save a particular listing, I need an account? Why? This info doesn't belong on the cloud; it's just for me. I suspect many people, like me, will never get an account to share this data, so devs should allow us to store it locally.

Most of the app is OK but say if you're searching for two bedroom rentals, the map view seems to always show the lowest price for a property. The map shows hundreds of places in my price range filtered for 2bd, but what is displayed are actually 1bd prices and I need to click through to see 2bd on each pin individually, many of which end up outside the filter range. Not a very good user experience and tedious that I have to look at every individual property to see if it fits.

It works but misses a few listing from other sources and needs better search flexibility. Two suggestions: 1) Very annoying to stumble on numerous winter/summer rentals when looking for annual. Wish you could screen them out. 2) I wish you could have a button "do not show again" for the listings that you looked at and not interested for whatever reason.

The app works extremely well compared to others and it's my default one when looking at apartments. It has 2 main issues however (at least on Android): It shows me rooms for rent on my feed and notifications without an option to turn that off, I want to look at private apartments only. Second, the share feature gives you 3 paragraphs of text. The people I'm sharing the apartment with already have the app, every apartment I send to my partner shouldn't also include a link to download the app.

I like this app, but recently the alerts tab stopped loading alert results. I still get alert notifications, but if I select them it just loads the alerts tab with a button that says "get started," even though I've configured alerts. Tapping this button also just takes me to the search tab. So yeah. No idea why or what I'm supposed to do. Seems like a bug.

Deleted previous review which was already at 2 stars but now I'm giving it 1 star. The Saved Rentals window keeps saying I don't have any saved homes when in reality I have several. Even when I look at the map there are hearts next to the ones I did indeed save but they do not show up when you click on Saved Rentals. Makes keeping track much more difficult. Please fix your app. It has been fine for the last couple months and this has just suddenly become a problem.

The app is mostly okay, but it seems to completely disregard filters. Ive signed out, signed in, reset filters, deleted the app, blah blah blah, done all of it. The app continues to send notifications for houses that don't allow pets, which ends up being about 3/4 of the results. In such a competitive rental area, it sends me continuous notifications about houses im not interested in, which ends up in me just turning them off because it's frustrating to deal with it. Likely won't use it anymore.

Very nicely done much better and more user friendly than their website. My favorite part is the draw feature so that you can draw a blob around the area you want to look for homes. I was able to make a big horse shoe shape around the peninsula that I was looking at for homes so that I could find something near the beach but not on the beach. Great work on the app now if only the website was this good you wouldn't need the app lol. ;)

Very good overall but I have one issue I've sent to customer support (still waiting to hear back). Whenever I try to delete my save searches they come right back when I reopen the app. Also I'd recommend making it mandatory for anyone trying to list a place to rent to add an address for an office or phone number to for contact. I've seen a few places I was interested in but looked all over for an email or number to call while finding none.

I went with three stars because it won't let you do 2 ½ stars. This app is almost entirely useless to me. I am looking for a HOUSE to rent, and all it sends me are notifications to apartment complexes. Oh, and double wide trailers. Sure, you can filter the results for single family home, but unless you're using the app to search for what you're looking for on an hourly basis, the notifications it sends you are all for apartments.

This is an excellent app. The options to narrow down searches are awesome. I appreciate all of my prefrences being saved in the filter, that I can save the houses I'm interested in, as well as hide the ones I'm not, and the boxes on the map going from blue to grey to remind me I viewed a listing. Lastly, I really like having control of the radius on the map. I'm so glad the 🦕 days of being limited to searching for houses by (unfamiliar/unknown) zip codes are long gone! Those who know - know!

Wish that I could rule out listings; to make them not show up ever again in searches by hiding them. It's annoying that a lot of listings are incorrectly populated; e.g. townhouses or condos show up under single family homes. Also, navigation is broken: when I go to "see all" photos grid, tap a photo from the grid and then tap back, I should get back to the photo grid. It's not what happens; I end up on the listing description. Gets me every time; super annoying for me.

This app is very good at giving you details about the it's surroundings with nearby schools and crime in the area. Even helps with the process of getting into contact with the right people you need to. My biggest complaint though is that when looking at apartments, using the price , square footage , and bed & bath filters they only seem to be there to get you into the broad selection of apartments they have. It doesn't actually narrow it down to the specific types of apartments you want.

It's fine for what it is. I absolutely hate the notifications. The notifications show you pictures of the most expensive rentals with the lowest cost rental prices next to them. Then when you click on the unbelievable notification it takes you to a list of rentals that aren't even available under my search parameters even though the notification says "based on your recent search" I'm not sure why this happens none of the other rent apps do this. I turned the notifications off.

I really like all of the extras; especially the "crime" stats. I may really like a certain place but I first look to see if he crime stats to see if it is in certain area. Also like looking at all of the other extras going across the top bar. This is by far my favorite rental app; I find it quite difficult to use another as I've not found one with all of the additional information.

Solid app for looking through listings, love the statistics for the neighborhood you are looking at. Only reason I dont give 5 stars is because the map is not responsive or sometimes downright obnoxious. For instance, I will click on a listing and instead of opening the listing it will think I've tapped the neighborhood, which then triggers an animation and hides all entries outside of the neighborhood. To get back to my search I have to back out and 'remove boundary'.

Unlike other apps this shows the Vancouver, WA area without Portland, OR listings, which I was immediately impressed with. Two different states, different laws, taxes, healthcare systems, so thank you for that. Unfortunately, trying to scroll through pictures of a listing makes the listing close. Terribly glitchy and FRUSTRATING to use. Not being able to eliminate listings I'm not interested in is also very frustrating.

Was downloading to look for rentals in the area. Set my profile to renter. No matter what I did all it showed is property for sale and sale options in search filters. Would be great for someone looking to buy a home but I gave 1 star due to it either improperly advertising rentals as well or not being able to easily navigate the app to search for rentals.
