  1. 3/5Lots of glitches, needs improvement

    I really like the idea of this app and most everything about it. I even found a roommate on it! My rating is solely about the usability. The app won’t let me upload photos of my apartment from my photo library, it will just glitch every time I select a photo and hit “done”, but it will let me take photos in the moment and upload those. Whenever I try to update my profile to reflect my roommate’s and my ages, it deletes the numbers, so it’ll appear as “I’m years old and my roommate is years old” I know there’s an area where you set your ‘household age’ but it would be helpful to be able to put it in your listing description too. It also only gives you the option to say that your property is available the day that you make the listing, so even if you list a month or two in advance, you can’t change it to say when it’s actually available, leading to messages from people who didn’t read the whole description. It also frequently freezes and is completely unusable until you exit the app and restart it. It would also be helpful to have an option where your listing is only visible to female or male users, because I do not want to have a man live with me, but I keep getting messages from ones who didn’t read my listing description. I will likely use this app again, but as a last resort when it comes to finding a roommate. Too many glitches.

  2. 2/5App was great (when it worked)

    This app was fine for me at first, I could actually log in and get messages from other people, communicate with them and also see that someone sent messages (for free), but not all of them. Things kept changing though; sometimes I could see messages, and sometimes not. The BIGGEST problem, however, is now I CAN’T EVEN SIGN IN! I used to use my e-Mail, as it was one of the options available. I never had to verify anything else (like my phone number) because I spoke with customer service, and they signed me in anyway. Now, the ONLY WAY TO SIGN IN is with PHONE NUMBER and I NEVER VERIFIED IT. Turns out, not only did they HAVE MY PHONE NUMBER, it is BLOCKED FROM THE WEBSITE. How did they even get it if I never gave it to them? When I spoke to customer service again, the guy over e-Mail said “delete your account and make a new one with that phone number”. Huh? That’s customer support? What about all my messages to and from other people? How do I know my phone number won’t get blocked again? There’s so much wrong with this, it is mind boggling. I can’t even write a review on their website, nor contact customer service because you have to have a signed-in-account (I could only reply to old e-mails customer service sent me because I can’t sign in). I’ll give it 2 stars, at least because when I could use it, everything was OK, but constant changes has turned this thing into utter crap

  3. 2/5Very Buggy & Not the Greatest UI

    I love the concept and needs the app tries to meet. But the app itself is buggy and difficult to navigate. I am on the latest IOS version and use an iPhone 16e. The app gets into moments when it kicks me out everytime I’d enter the message center. Additionally, I am having a hard time understanding what the Broadcast page is there for. When I create a new listing, the Broadcast button is greyed out and I’m not able to continue on with listing. Instead, my oldest listing would be enabled to be broadcasted. And then when I shut down the app and reopen, I’m able to hit the Broadcast button for the new listing. Not sure if this is a bug or working as designed. One other notable thing is that, there are no timestamps on other users’ messages to you. It would help to know how long ago my message requests have been sitting my inbox. I say this because if you have the unpaid version of Roomster, you cannot view who has reached out to you. So when I paid, I responded to my inquiries, I never got a response back, and now I’m thinking it’s because I left the messages sitting in my inbox for too long but not knowing how long they were sitting in there for. I wish I didn’t pay the $30 for this experience. It’s not worth it.

  4. 1/5Account deleted within minutes

    Update: My review has nothing to do with your charges. Your filters allow and encourage people to discriminate against just about every protected class under the Federal Fair Housing Act. I think the US government should force you to cease operations until you stop allowing people to post listings which openly state that people who are black, LGBT, religious, of certain age or male are “not allowed.” In the 10 minutes I browsed your listings, before my account was deleted without notice, every single listing I viewed had some mention of disallowing a protected class from applying. One of the listings literally said “no blacks, no gays, no Muslims” at the bottom. Another said “Asian women only.” It’s not just gross, it’s against the law. I created my account, finished my profile, verified my email and phone number, posted a listing, then was logged out as I attempted to send my first message. The login page says “User Removed” but I haven’t received a text or an email stating that my account was deleted. Sketchy app that allows people violate US housing discrimination laws. Saw multiple people specifying what race/age/gender/sexual orientation they were willing to provide housing to. Creepy. Glad I didn’t spend $15 to verify my identity since they decided to delete my account without reason within 10 minutes of installing.

  5. 1/5Not worth it

    Trash app. I signed up for it when I was needing a roommate and saw that I had to pay for it. So didn’t pay and kept getting emails that people were sending me messages. Decided to pay for a week to see these messages people were sending me. No one was sending me messages, it was just the app trying to get me to pay. I forgot to cancel before the week subscription was up and canceled less than 24 hours after money was taken out of my account. Which instead of charging me for another week they charged me even more money for an entire month plan??? Contacted customer support to see if I could get refunded since I canceled less than 24 hours after being charged and they charged me the month fee(which wasn’t approved) instead of a week fee. Human on other end of computer just copy pasted policy info and wasn’t helpful or understanding at all. Don’t waste your time or money on this app. - in response to developer: no one was sending me messages. You guys kept sending me emails as if someone was messaging me but all it was was people singing up in the area not physically someone reaching out to me- which is how your emails are sent. I’d update this because it’s very scammy to get people to sign up when if fact people aren’t actually messaging.
