I love giving in my neighborhood! The app reaches farther than the Facebook groups, which I prefer. However. The app glitches constantly. I have to login over and over. It does not save my pickup info even though I tick the box to save it every time. Sometimes it won't open, or things take forever to load. I love the BuyNothing community and the function of the app, but I really wish it were more reliable. My loyalty to the concept and lack of other options are what keep me using the app.

Great project! I've been an advocate of Buy Nothing for a few years and although transitioning from FB groups to the app is still a pain, I'm glad that they are claiming their independence from Big Tech. Some pain points I've experienced with the app which hopefully gets resolved soon: 1. Having to sign in every few weeks/months. Software update might be triggering it? 2. The default view isn't local. Other than that, awesome job with all the improvements!

I've been using the app for several years now and the experience has changed very little in terms of the quality of performance for basic users, which keeps me from paying for premium. Constant loading screens make it difficult (or impossible) to meet up with people to give/receive gifts. The app does not buffer or load fast enough, and I cannot view more than a days worth of postings. Please stop adding new content and fix these issues! Ty
