Ratings and reviews

Warm Showers hosts are great. The app , less so. Performs very badly on weak internet connection. Tries to load massive map before giving access to messages. Fine for cities, not so good in more remote areas. Can't copy text from app ( e.g. to translate ). Full of dead and unresponsive profiles. Terrible search options require you to filter through mounds of junk profiles.

Takes a while to load, shows as offline when you open it and if you click on anything before it loads logs you out. Doesn't cache anything (the main purpose of an app). Randomly asks me to login again, and now it won't load profiles. I paid for a year for the convenience of using an app vs the website while on a long tour but it's more frustrating than convenient.

It seems like a complete ripoff to describe Warmshowers as a free service on your website only to charge money through the app.. And only to find out that you can't get a full list of features that you'll "unlock" until AFTER you pay money for it. Between what the website says, what I just experienced with the app, and the numerous 1 star reviews, the app feels more like a scam than anything. Keeping it donation based would've been the better move.
