I love the concept but this app is just embarrassing. I would except an app with so many users that is out there for so long to have a much better UX and much fewer bugs. The product manager and QA team there needs to be fired immediately! So many basic mistakes that I wouldn't expect even on the MVP stage.

What a fucked up app ... notification are usually received hours after being sent, making it very difficult to organise anything short notice. Moreover the app very often tell me i am not connected when i try to send a message (even if i am obviously connected and all the rest works fine) then if you want to shortcut the app by using the website, the website forces you to go to the app so it doesnt solve any problem ...

De mal a peor - from bad to worse This app never required google/play services before because it is not neccesary, but now for some reason -expect the worst- it is not jus optional but requirement to work. Why? Couchsufing is dying o just being killed...

After the update I can't copy and paste the text in people's profile to translate it. So what you want us to do if they write their profile in other languages? Let's just not make friends because of language barrier?

Couchsurfing is great if you meet a certain criteria, or rather don't meet a certain criteria. As usual people use coded language to discriminate. I am glad that I am not that destitute to have to rely on free accomodation when I travel.

First time using it and everything went smoothly. I got a host in the last minute. But I hope you can sooner fix the message delay

Hey Cheam, thanks for letting us know about the problems you're having with the app.It makes sense that you're frustrated! This is an unusual issue, but you might be able to solve it by re-downloading/updating the app. If that doesn't work, feel free to reach out to support@couchsurfing.com. Thank you.

Hey Kaptain, thanks for your comments on the app. We're sorry to hear that you haven't had a great experience so far. CS is a valuable platform for many travelers and we hope that you'll continue to be part of the community. Thank you First time using it and everything went smoothly. I got a host in the last minute. But I hope you can sooner fix the message delay
This is by far one of the best things that have happened to me. If someone had told me about couchsurfing when I was 17, I would probably have at least 1 million friends
I'm new to the community. It's difficult to get people to host you if you don't have references. The app works great.
Good app to help find people and a place to stay. A few weirdos that seem to want a little extra but if you're careful it's perfect
Most of the time I can't get the notification for the message and always have to refresh the page.
The app keeps on logging me out. Almost missed important messages on a number of occasions because of that. The interface itself is fine, as useful as the website.
I have a permanent "Available to hangout" notification appearing on my phone and can't get rid of it except for turning off couch surfing notifications, is this a bug?
Once I started messaging someone, I cannot see anyway to send them a request to stay with them, which makes the how purpose and goal of ths app very difficult to achieve.
I dont like the app. I really like the website but the app is not easy to use is not nice.
This app is incredible. Meet new exciting people while your traveling. They offer you a safe free place to spend the night while you travel. Its amazing. Can't beat it. Some will even take the time to show you around.
I lied the app. Haven't really used it but for ten minutes but is putting me in touch with new folks!
I have tried this app 3 years ago and now and signed up again , big development i term of verification and security, still new now and i will write another review after while.
Brilliant. I installed it 2 days ago and I am already addicted to it. Very versatile and useful.
Scam....won't even let me finish Plus it says Facebook is verified However the completeness says otherwise..what a joke
The app isn't showing new massages, it's very unreliable.
Great for connecting with nice people! Not only for getting a couch but also helping other people out any way you can! :)
Nice to find accommodation for free but be carful who you chose to stay with some of the people can be a little strange so just try to stick to people with reviews
Sometimes met bad people if have better solution to avoid them to disturb others hosts or travelers, that would be great
I just had my first hangout. Met awesome people. This app is highly recommended.
This app is a perfect copy of the homepage... You can do everything you need to do, this is great especially when backpacking 👌✌
Easy to use software, as well as great community you are able to connect with and make some memorable memories, awesome app!

Hey Milad, thank you for letting us know about the problems you're having the app. Have you tried re-downloading/updating it to see if that helps? You can also reach out to support@couchsurfing.com for some assistance. Thanks. This really helps me when I travel around. I like to meet new people and this app satisfies my need
All good! But It was nowhere informed by the app that to verify, 1300 rupees will be charged.
Couch surfing is a great platform to meet new friends. I had a great experience with the app. It's very helpful.
It is a wonderful little app with ability to connect strangers.
Ansvers to messages come in just the next day even person answers right away. Unbelievable!
