2026-06-23	BA*****	It’s a joke that these guys think they are providing $20 of value per month. Make it $2 since the jobs are already so competitive. Also atleast give some background of the gig like any details at all.

2026-06-22	Zo*****	90% of the time I click on a notification for a job the app never takes me to the job. It just takes me to the job board and then when I get on the job board, I don’t even see the job. It takes a while for the new jobs that I’m getting notifications for to be on the job board. So if I have to apply from the email notifications anyway, the app itself it’s then pointless.. looks cool though

2026-04-19	Un*****	The app doesn’t even have a way to make an account. I try to see a job listing sent via email and there no way for me to even make an account on my phone for staff me up. On top of that I try to sign in with google Facebook and Apple and it says can’t find an account. So how am I supposed to use the app if I can’t even log in or make an account.

2025-02-21	S-*****	This app is just not finished or tested. Cover letters get cut off and you can’t see the bottom of your messages. No option to edit after submission on mobile. Can’t read job posting to reference while writing cover letter. Just terrible design. No point in having the app if it isn’t optimized like the web version.

2024-12-22	Su*****	This app is way too bare-bones. There is absolutely no way for you to manage your account and membership. Yet another one of these companies that makes you jump to the moon and back to cancel your membership. Not that many people post on here for work, you’re better off just looking on Linkedin.

My issue is I just downloaded the app so that I can apply to gigs faster, but my pre-saved cover letters are getting cut off by the text box and there’s no way to scroll down. I would love to be able to read the entire cover letter over again before I submit for the job!!

2024-09-23	Na*****	First of all, I’m confused as to why they made an entirely new app. I didn’t receive and email about it. I went for weeks with the old app not working and had to go to my computer for every job that came through which wasted valuable time. Took a while to find the Work Alerts. Too many taps to find. It should be front and center. If you’re going to hide something from the front page, it should be the unfiltered feed of every single job everywhere. Nobody needs to see every single job on their front page. I want to see the email come through about a job, and then open the app to see the same job staring me in the face. Don’t make me hunt for it.

2024-09-09	Za*****	This is a well put together app, but after a lot of paid subscription months I didn’t receive so much as an interview for jobs at or below my experience level. No feedback, the “promoted” feature doesn’t seem to do much. They’re just taking advantage of people hurting financially in a struggling industry. Meanwhile, I apply to a job on LinkedIn that’s equal (or even slightly above) my level and get an interview immediately and a follow up.
