Love it
I found this app invaluable in helping me locate and buy the car I wanted. So many cars, so many colors and options. It found my best match without having to navigate multiple dealership websites. It even did better than using the car manufacturers locator. And the pricing insight gave me the confidence to know when I had a great price.
With introduction of AI chat, there is no button to show results. It is not there.
App is unusable. Search results can’t be displayed due to lack of “show me results” button. It was supposed to be below the chat window, but it isn’t there.
$49.99 fee to use to communicate with car dealer
I don’t remember seeing anywhere that I was going to have to pay $49.99 to communicate with the car dealer, but I did to use the app to communicate with a dealer.
Used to be great, what happened?
I am not able to search beyond $34K which is ridiculous. The app already doesn’t allow to select multiple makes and models and now it has the highly frustrating glitch.
Glitchy
Seems to be very glitchy and slow at times. Matches tend to be a bit off also based on my requests. I’m sure it will get better
Many options and excellent analysis
Copilot is the first app I have seen that scours the market and provided you with many current options depending on the features you have chosen. The recommendations are based on excellent analysis.
Virtually unusable now
This app used to be awesome. Now it’s wildly difficult to use. Only spits out AI options that it “thinks” you want instead of letting you be the judge of what you want.
Buggy of late
This app used to be really helpful and now it freezes constantly and won’t save edits to searches unless you close and reopen it. Bummer as it was really cool when I originally found it last year.
Not good user experience
After I see the ad placement in Instagram, I tried to install after I signed in. I see a blank white page. Then a couple of times I did reinstall then it works, but the text sizes are very less not user-friendly and also if you find any car in order to see the dealership direction how to pay some money so it’s not free. It is better go to the dealership website and see the car why you why we should pay here
Purchased Last Three (3!) Kid Cars This Way
If you’re a researcher - this is for you. Aggregates all the data and finds needles in the haystack. Our requirements: Reliable, well maintained, under 60k mileage, under 15-20k price, all in. This app was the only way we could’ve found the gems we did. For one of them, it was out of state in a small town, but priced so aggressively that even after we shipped it, it was still a steal. Only wish some of the criteria adjustments didn’t have to be made at the profile level instead of the car level. Made for extra clicks. But a small price to pay.
Not Good
I set my criteria and it spits out whatever vehicle at whatever price and miles. What is the point of me inputting my criteria then?
Used to be amazing
I downloaded this app and used it to buy a car two years ago. It was amazing. What in the world did you guys do to it? Now it’s almost useless. Really disappointing as I’m looking for another car. Immediately I came to download your app, but I’m immediately deleting it because it’s literally useless.
Amazing app
There’s a few bugs in the app and there’s a delay in sales, but I was able to find my dream truck on here! It was a Sunday night and my boyfriend called as soon as the dealer opened the next day and we beat the rush! The dealer said no one was wanting to look at it until it posted to copilot. Then it was a hot commodity. Super grateful for this app and how it pulls from so many sources!
Search issues
Doesn’t narrow down far enough to the exact model. I don’t want hybrid I want hybrid plug-in.
Options
This app really needs to use a little less AI or let the user have more options! Doesn’t give you any choices for models once you choose a make!
Awesome app
I used this app to buy both my last two cars. It demystifies the process and makes it a lot more efficient, providing all vehicle details without having to click through multiple pages as well as insights about market value and dealer willingness to negotiate. Really outstanding app
Used to be better
I found and bought a car with CoPilot two years ago. It was very helpful in finding exactly what I wanted at the price I was willing to pay. Now the app has changed, and I can’t just run a “normal” search. I can’t even figure out how to get to the 10 perfect matches it says it found for me. Why is the app so frustrating and hard to use now? Deleting and looking for something else.
Not really “free” App. You have to pay $99.99 for guidance on what to expect and avoid @ dealership.
Minimal help to identify car of your choice per your preferences (which you can do at manufacturer’s website). But my big objection is: you have to pay to get help on advice about dealerships, to understand what tricks dealers use, what to expect, etc.. So in fact this App is not “free” as they state.
Glitchy unstable
Glitches, AI made it it even worse. How can we disable AI “help” and use traditional search?? And latest update made it even worse, AI will destroy this app. Deleting
Focus is salvaged vehicles
Vehicles with salvaged titles will always bubble to the top in this app, because of course they are “great deals”, but I don’t want a salvage vehicle and there is NO way to filter them out.
Useless
So many other apps for way less. I tried canceling and there is no cancel option it’s terrible and bad customer service
Interface is not intuitive
It kinda works. Wants to be tinder for cars however if you want to look at pics forget about getting out of that view. You have to close and reopen the app to go back. Not sure it’s worth the hassle.
Bad app
2 times asked for login .. and entered all the info for car and then screen with results never appeared .. on closing and opening it takes forever to load
Very limited search parameters
Would be nice to search just by features, body style, price, mileage, etc. only real parameters are make and model
Confused
This doesn’t have any of the features people talk about or displayed in the pictures. It’s just an AI chat bot? Confused
Incorrect price information
Search results are good. But it was saying that the price of some cars are $9000 below MSRP!!! Then the dealer website shows the full price for those cars! Complete waste of time in terms of trying to find the lowest price!
Not useful
The AI prompt gives the impression that you are on the right path then it revolves into a basic search engine. I entered: 2020 Ford Transit Passenger van with AWD, mid roof and short wheelbase. The app returned 56 vehicles year 22-24. None matched my request. And I know this is a difficult vehicle to find… that is why I was looking for AI help.
not so smart for an AI app
After specifically asking to search for 2003-2007 Bmw E 46 M3 convertibles, and receiving information on this model, the app only searches for bottles made after 2008. After going through the process a few times I gave up. Two stars because the app provided useful information on the E46 model.
