This app is a scam. I subscribed for one month, but they charged me again for a second month without my permission. I only agreed to a one-month subscription. On top of that, most of the accounts seem fake — I send messages and get no replies. I wasted my money and my time for nothing. I do not recommend this app.

I've used the site for a few years and finally decided to install the app. It's quite disappointing. I'm not getting notifications although I've checked all the settings in the app and on my phone. When you type a message, the message window doesn't float on top of the virtual keyboard of you phone, so you can't see what you're typing. And message notifications in the app stay forever - even though you've read them, it keeps showing you have an unread message.

Very good app with great potential. It needs some improvements though. Formost, allow travelers to change dates and hosts to re-confirm. Right now you have to cancel your trip outright to make a change. So what ends up happening is you get your host's number and use WhatsApp to communicate, or their email. There are a lot of little things like this that need some work. Get to it Devs! Because otherwise the idea is great. Edited

It's disappointing that there is a pay wall. Even worse is that it's so expensive and a monthly charge. For an app aiming to link travellers and locals together is going about it the wrong way. There should be a trial or a limited service then a small yearly or one off fee. I won't be getting out my credit card out for this!

Update: Reason it logged me out so often because I didn't install updates. All I had to do is uninstall and reinstall. Everything is working fine. Very useful to meet local guides and travellers. Rating is updated from 2 stars to 5 stars Previous review: Useful to meet local guides but I have a problem with this app as it keeps logging me out every so often!! Edited
