im pleasantly surprised by this app. The last time I was on an app looking for a rental property was many years ago, and back then there were only two major places to look. Never seemed like i had much luck with those two either, back then craigslist and facebook marketplace were still the major places to find a new apartment. so far I really like this housing app compared to the others...plus sending a request or a message isnt complicated&there are always new options being sent to me daily

It's a good app, I prefer it to most others, but a big flaw is the "allows pets" option needs to be more strictly monitored as it'll show you places that "allow pets" in the description just for you to go to the property's website and find out they actually don't, & this isn't just a hotpads issue either, most rental apps have this same flaw.

I like this app and would give it 5 stars except for one thing: their notifications. I keep getting notifications for "recommended" properties, which meet none of my search criteria. This wouldn't be so bad if the option to turn them off actually worked, but unfortunately that setting never, ever, ever sticks. I turn it off several times a week, only to suddenly begin getting bombarded with notifications I don't want again, and of course they are are magically turned on...again. Why?
