Use the app because we travel. On Android, this app is useless to plan a trip. When you click on it, an error message appears and you need to restart the app. On Apple, the plan a route option works fine. Great customer service from HH; they were able make my Ultra 21 and the app work. Again, great customer service.

This app is frustrating to use. When you're searching thru hosts in an area you will be visiting thru the map search there is no way of knowing which hosts you have already looked at and eliminated. Even when you 'like' or 'save' a host to favorites they don't show up on the map as a saved favorite. This app waists a lot of time when searching. Is there a way for the app creators to somehow indicate which hosts profiles have been looked at and ones that have been saved as favorites on the map?

I love the idea of having an app but can't figure out how to search without already knowing the name of the host which defeats the purpose. I also can't search along a route. then, when I went to the website to try it that way on my phone I was automatically redirected to the app without an option to stay on the browser site. Recommendations: fix search on the app and on the website give mobile users the option to open in the app like most other sites rather than forcing a redirect.

Trying to contact someone at HH, sent a message thru the app, no reply! My question is: You added the dump station info. It looks like you did not do any kind of research to see if the dump stations are even active or up and running! I check it out and found that the listing for Cabelas in Lone Tree, Co was on the list. they have not had that dump up and running for over a year or more. Having a more up to date dump site app would be greatly appreciated.

***Update*** It has been two months. If anything the app integration for BW has gotten worse. Requests disappear, hosts are never notified, no way to call or message a host directly and they are not notified of app messages. Ugh. The BW integration is awful. The old app showed availability calendars and allowed a filter by date option. Now many hosts say to just message them for availability, but there is no option to do so.

Great idea, fun experiences, but the worst app I'vehad to use. We're hosts and have met other hosts who agree. The app FREQUENTLY crashes. Had several Canadians and one guest from Europe that didn't have working US cell phones. Can't communicate reliably with these people because the app fails. I've never had a single day where the app hasn't crashed. Download the app and become a member, it's worth it and we love hosting, but be prepared for a nightmare user experience.

Love Harvest Hosts, but the app needs work. Pros:. Easy to find, review and contact hosts. The ability to press a button and send the location to whatever nav app you use is great! Host hours and information makes determining your next stop super easy. Cons: Trips, lists and saved hosts that are created under your account on the website are not accessible on the app, and stared hosts on the app do not carry over to the website. In fact, all started hosts were deleted with the last update.

So far I have used it twice. The places have been great! But the GPS on the site when you tap it to get there both times it turned me on the wrong turn to get there. The 1st time I figured it out before I turned cause I saw the other campers. The second one was worse totally missed the place by 2 blocks turned me down a dirt road that I had to the guy who lived there to help me get turned around. After I got stuck there another camper going to the same place got stuck too😱

Harvest Hosts used to be a place you could go to get a last minute one night place to stay, perfect for RV travelers on the move. In fact same day reservations were required. Now they have implemented an advance reservation system which sometimes makes it almost as difficult to find a place as it is to find a RV site at a campground these days. Maybe consider having at least one or two spaces available at each host for same day reservations. Otherwise the app is great.

The program is great and we have used it 7 or 8 times on this trip. The app itself works badly on my cell phone and much better on a computer. So tired of putting a state name or host name in the search bar and seeing the swirling dots which never seem to settle on anything. It will work on a computer, or using the map to focus in on an area. We love the HH program and had so many great experiences we otherwise would have missed without it. But the cell phone app needs improvement. To reviewer who gave it one star but admits he didn't join the program I think you should remove your rating since by your admission you didn't use it so you have no idea of it's value.

Was excited to get this app but almost everything is an add-on price when they don't advertise anything as an add-on when you sign up. Super bate and switch. You people should be ashamed of yourselves. After talking to some other RV-ers, some of these things were included in their previous basic membership, so they are switching sites to "add-ons" as time goes by.. I may be requesting a refund.

Numerous bugs with the phone app (latest version as of today) and their website. It is very annoying running into these bugs every time I try and do anything. Every one of their direct links takes me somewhere other than where it's supposed to. They should have had these all fixed long ago. Tried contacting tech support about this, and got a bogus, upgrade to the latest app and if that doesn't work, uninstall and reinstall the app, response.

I love the concept and have had amazing experiences with both HH and BW, but this app is SO bad. I plan to continue using the program, but please fix the glitches with the app!! I get no notifications when messages are received, and I can't even click on the "messages" part of the home screen. So I have to go a backwards way to get to any new messages and just keep checking the app or website constantly in fear of missing one. I tried to submit a complaint, but that didn't function either.

I really like the host locations we have stayed at. I cannot think of better people at every single place. The price value for the annual rate is spot on. My biggest complaint is the online and mobile app. They need work and are difficult to operate. The app opens with a blank screen and a search bar. After you put in a city ( no direction) then options come up.

App needs some improvement. currently staying at a host and it does not show in the list of nearby hosts. If I type in the name the search brings me to the location but no marker appears. I also had some favorites saved on the website but they did not show up here. That may be an issue on the site though because my favorites had disappeared before. would also like to see routing added like the website so I can see who is along my route.

Terrible app. Harvest hosts is great the app is absolute GARBAGE! I could give it less than one star I would. It is conatantly buggy no matter how many times you say do not show this again it shows it again. It is slow. It does not let you easily move around the map. It freezes everytime EVERYTIME I use it. It has always been this way and I cannot belive a company that has enough money to buy branded RVs and pay for as much marketing as they do CANNOT seem to fix this app! It makes no sense

I've only used Harvest Host once and loved it. The App is terrible. I can't figure out how to limit my options enough geographically. Also, when I get my filters set for the length of my RV and the distance I will travel from the route, it keeps changing back to no filters. I have to change it back after every property. Please improve this app. I think I love Harvest Host but finding a location is too cumbersome.

Not terribly useful outside of merely locating Harvest Hosts. Can't edit the Favorites list to remove multiple instances of the same host (in other words - can only add, not delete). Can no longer figure out how to add or remove items to/from my saved trips. Trips should start at HOME not at the first HH along the route, and end somewhere besides at the HH. Better integration with Google Maps would help. The ability to export an itinerary would be great. I'm going to quit using the app mostly.

Updated 5/13/24. Upping to 5 stars. Great app with good functionality for a great camping program. Their support team has been responsive to feature requests (sometimes explaining where an alreasy-existing feature can be found), and sent an update when a bug or issue has been resolved. This shows they really want to keep improving, well done!

Overall, this app works well. I am able to communicate with hosts and make reservations. On the Android phone, I have been having some crashing issues. Also, if I'm typing a message and I somehow make a mistake and get out of the app, when I come back, the message I've written is now completely wiped out. I have to compose a message again. It can be very annoying.
