Free Stuff

I enjoy looking thru this app, but it amazes me the number of people that post items on here to sell when it clearly states it's an app for FREE ITEMS!!!!

Some photos are poor and you can't even tell what it is, but most are helpful. More info about item, such as item size, dimensions would be very helpful. A few show a price and also "free", so can be confusing. These are all things the listing person should do, not the site. The site is great.

I havent yet actually obtained anything through the website b/c the listings which are well presented (99% include photo)and appear by location are junk. You must give it location access (obviously)if you want listings for your area. No annoying pop-ups and a minimum amount of banners. listings appears legit. Items read two listings that list something as free, but you must purchase or trade first making the item NOT free, but this does not appear to be a fault of the app creator or moderators

This app needs two things to make it worthwhile: 1. A way to set distance from user's location. I'm near San Diego CA, and will happily travel 40 miles for the right item. Showing me free items in Canada has no value. 2. A Date the item was posted. A garage sale post says "This Weekend." The post has been up for 10 days. Another post shows a free computer in the SD Animal Control parking lot. That item has been top of the list for every day of the two weeks I've been using the app.

It's actually as if the developers don't even use this app anymore. All listings seem to be outdated and I've not gotten a response from one person.. Either the listings sellers, (whether free item or $$ item), nor the contact us section of the app. If I'm wrong and contacted I'll be happy to update the review accordingly, but for now... 👎 Ppphhhttthhh! 👎 Total waste of my time.... 👎😤

So far very good . super easy to contact sellers & send messages. would like to be able to see what's free/for sale closest to my location if I only want or look up by cities or states. Also if the ads were dated. Some advertisements are out dated. Other than that so far really easy to use & good app to download.

Automatically I'm having issues with the app and I just downloaded it. It preselected a search area for me and it's over 200 miles away from me and I'm not interested in stuff that far. It doesn't give an option to change it only other locations... that makes no sense at all! It's like being spammed with non-local stuff when all I want to look at is local items.

This is a really great idea and could be a must have, go to app.. but it needs a lot of work. The most recent post I found was 11 days old, the closest thing I found was 3 hours away and the filters are limited and don't seem to do much. Maybe it's just too new, and no one knows about it, therefore no one is posting items.. maybe it's capabilities just stink, I don't know. But I didn't find it particularly helpful or useful.. Maybe I'll try it again in a year or so.

Well so far it REALLY SUCKS man. It freezes in the download mode. Around 87%>Tried it twice, same thing. I hope the hell this isn't precursor to what's to come if I ever can install this a the way. Anyone else have a problem installing this app! If so, how did you correct this problem. Thanks Will upgrade my review if I can get it installed and it's a decent app.

They have good items that are useful with little to no damage. Some of the stuff is new. They just didn't return it for whatever reason. Ads are ads some relevant to me some annoying because of the repetitiveness. I seldom push to learn more. Actually I think I've done it and I bought one item and just reviewed one more. That's it.

Decent app, but it's pretty annoying that the location cant be filtered without paying for the pro version. I get the reason for it but I think that part of the point of people getting the app is to search in and specifically around their area, so to limit this option seems a bit petty. I get VERY little in terms of results in my area whereas other apps have offered WAY more. Mayb SOME ability to narrow a location range with free version would be nice. Getting SO many results out of diff states

No idea how long ago items where available. By the time you receive notice the item was no longer available. Thus its a waste of time. It sure could be a great app with better notification or timely ones . It's layout is easy to use overall it's functionality is great. Notifications are more like a teaser. You might really want an item but when you contact the owner and they say it's been weeks or longer since the item was posted you realize what it's a waste of time to reply

Only problem I have is personal in that I get so many alerts about free stuff my phone is constantly buzzing (I know I could adjust the settings but I don't want to chance missing out on cool stuff!! 😘) Watch out for scammers posting too good to be true stuff and asking for shipping costs/ trying to get you to respond only by email or text instead of thru the apps. MacBook pro, PlayStation 4, RV camper like new for free?? Not likely! 🤬 If you come across those I urge you to flag/report!

Not a bad idea, but as others here have mentioned, there's simply not enough listings nearby to justify downloading this app. My results showed a whopping 2 within a 50 mile radius. Craigslist had 48 nearby listings for free stuff and the local newspaper had 15. Didn't check Facebook yet, but daily there are tons of "free to a good home" posts in our local area. This is an app arriving way to late to the party and while it seems fairly straight forward and easy to use, it's pointless in 2022.

The free stuff app gives me multiple pictures and a way of conacting the seller with more than one way to reach them and actually shows a map for directions. Very helpful and easier instead of the other apps that raise my blood presure from anxiety from frustration of not being able to contact the seller. Thank You for making me like my phone instead of not. By careing about customers than not. Thank You again.

I recommend this to everyone doesn't have a lot of time on their hands to go searching for hidden gems in the various apps/sites free sections. By placing everything in one location, this app has helped me save a ton of time. Being able to filter, save, and receive notifications for what I'm looking for, I'm often the first person to respond to an ad. Thank you so much for creating this app! A well deserved 5 stars!!!

The main problems I have are in the basuc program for the app. It is next to impossible to respond to someone"s ad because there is no contact data included. It is difficult to navigate on the page, and It does not return to the place where you left it when you look at an ad more closely, . Photos are often so poorly made that it is difficult to discern what is intended. (The poor photos ar likely due to poor photography by the ad maker, though) I get so frustrated that I give up---again
