Ratings and reviews

Notification dots for nothing will NOT go away. I have emailed repeatedly and they will not fix it it always looks like you have a notification and you don't. Even when you tap on EVERYTHING they don't go away. Pain in the a$$ .. they can't, or won't fix their frigging app.. if you redeem points for credit here and don't immediately use it, they expire and you lose out altogether. Why yes, the app is getting worse. Daily reward conveniently skips the 110 Point day. 3 weeks in a row! 😡😡

Update: I really hate this app now. As is so common improvements have ruined everything. Was difficult to find where to set my location. In fact I just stumbled upon.. I find it very annoying to have to constantly be resetting the distance within which I want to see listings. Even after setting it to 10 miles I will have listings 50 miles away.

I like this app, because it is simple, straight forward and people are usually really close by. I wouod put 5 stars, but I dislike the change to only being able to boost your items in the news feed a total of four times. I see how they wouldn't prefer it to be flooded constantly, by the same people, but maybe another idea wouold be to limit the amount of items at a time, we can boost, rather than the amount of times so low. Its only four hours each time...otherwise...its great. : )
