Can't sign in, says email already registered. But I have to use a phone number to sign in Edit: they indentified and corrected the problem, and proactively reached out to let me know. Turns out that the service isn't available where I live yet anyway though (it would be great to have that info in the app). I look forward to try this out when it is available.

Hi Vivan, our apologies for the sign-in challenge. We see you have it sorted out now and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We have text and emailed you how the challenge occurred stemming from an old account profile with a typo and a new account which identified the same email. Because of your feedback, we can proactively help others!

I downloaded the app and tried to sign in with my phone number like it instructed and was told there would be a code sent to me and nothing happened. I tried to tap it to resend the code like it said to do and still nothing happened. Not going to waste my time with an app that won't even let me sign in. I never have this trouble with other apps. I am simply going to uninstall it and move on with my day. Editing my review 45 mins later...I just received the code to login almost an hour later.

Hi Angela, apologies our SMS/MMS partner Twilio was having a total system delay issue. This was resolved late 10.24.24 and is no longer an issue. You'll receive your OTP immediately moving forward. Again, our sincere apologies for the disruption. Gopher Support Team

Tried few times now over past year and signup was easy and to get verified. But I have yet to get anyone to accept my request. And it will tell me there is over 40 Gophers in area. And I have tripled what the app said I should offer for pay. Just for a simple pickup one item 11 miles away deliver to me and I offered $30 and still nothing. I'm ready to sign up as a gopher and pay myself that much to go 11 miles so 20-30 min. That's like $60/hr. Kind of bummed, was excited for an app like this
