Since the last update, its been a hassle to renew my expired ads, all I see is 6 ads and if I want to see more expired ads I get an error message "unable to load more ads" how will I be able to renew all of my ads if the app keeps misbehaving like this? Also I believe a button to renew ads in 20, 50, 100 batches or a button to select couple of ads at once should be introduced instead of renewing one by one.. That said, please make the app load times more faster.... Thanks

Gumtree SA app seems to be lagging alot. Takes forever to load a page. (I do have fibre wifi and for example. YouTube loads up very fast with good quality) I'm using a note 9 and my app is up to date. I've also uninstalled the app and installed it again, but the problem persists. Please help and/or check your app for any problems. Thank you.

I loved the previous version of Gumtree! This new updated version on the other hand is a huge frustration and disappointment. Saved searches dissappear within minutes and it's not user friendly. Something needs to be done! Looks like there's a lot people that agrees with me if you have a look at the reviews.
