The app gets buggy if you flip in and out of different chats so hopefully they patch this soon. The price point is a bit high for the premium listing but the service is much better if you pay it. That being said, I've definitely saved more on my rent with the flatmates I found than if I tried to find a new place by myself, so I guess it's worth it in this rental market.

Hi Danniel, thanks for your review. The white screen when switching out of the app is an issue that our developers are currently looking into. If it is causing too much inconvenience, you may opt to uninstall the app and use our mobile website for the time being. Kind regards, FM Team

A wonderful business but the app has been disappointing, many times there is a profile freeze (white screen when trying to view a profile). Messages in your inbox could be more apparent too, feels like you really need to check each individual conversation to see. Maybe a solve would be to have a red number for unread messages? Hoping we get some improvements this year to get a better experience, otherwise I'll just stick to using the website on my pc.

The app breaks after I look at something else (notifications, after sending property to a friend, after looking at maps etc) and then I loose the property whilst sussing out if it's a good fit because I have to restart the app. SUCH an annoying glitch and has been for a few months now. On android as parters app is fine on iPhone
