Found my perfect roomie!!
The app is pretty self explanatory and not difficult to use, and thanks to it I found the most amazing Roomie ever!! We had a 100% match on the app and it was very accurate - thank you!!
this app sucks and the support is nonexistent
this app sucks and the support is nonexistent
It good
It’d be better if it had a notification function for messages and new profiles
Dysfunctional mess
Things literally just don’t work. So buggy.
Has significant flaws but overall usable
Swiping through roommates is kind of fun but the app categorizes some matches as “good” when there are obvious dealbreakers like different preferred roommate arrangements and significant class or age differences. Beyond that, you can’t chat with anybody after your matching date, which means you need to take an initiative in exchanging socials off-app if you want to keep talking. I guess what I’m trying to say is that there’s great potential but it is just disappointing when looking deeper into it.
Great app
Best way to find a roommate
Glitchy
I can’t even log into my account and it’s been over a year. I need to look for new roommates and i’m unable to without an invitation link, i had a link and it still wouldn’t let me log in “without an invitation link”. I tried contacting the support team and received no answer and now the app glitches out anytime i try to do anything on it.
Pictures
The picture field should be forced before making an account.
Glitchy
The app is very glitchy when I’m trying to message a potential roommate, please fix the app
Glitchy beyond belief
Probably one of the glitchiest apps I have ever used. A solid 90% of the time messages I send disappear within a minute. Of the ones that go through and get a response, 75% of them I’ll see a notification of a response come in and when I go and check it, half of my chats are just gone.
Wish we used something else
Glitchy and unresponsive
Very buggy
The concept of the app was extremely enticing, but RoomSync was ineffective at best and infuriating at worst. My main issue came when me and my friend both made profiles on the app and were trying to match with each other. Despite searches across several days and checking every detail possible, our profiles never showed up for each other. We contacted RoomSync several times to no avail, and when we eventually tried to just join the same room with other people we could both see to try and force our profiles to connect, the join button didn’t work. This was exhausting and stressful and I typically don’t write reviews for anything but I feel this experience warrants one.
Won’t load
Worked fine for a month and now refuses to load and open.
Don’t download
HORRIBLE APP.. DO NOT DOWNLOAD
Only had the app for a day
Had the app for a day and it keeps crashing, doesn’t show my profile or the profiles of other people and the app crashes every time I use it. I also get people who have selected gender inclusive housing but I cannot match with them because I chose same gender housings
Worst app ever!!😩
Ok ? So I just downloaded this app hoping to find a room mate my cup of tea 🫖 and the app won’t let me use my Apple account I been a long time apple user since I was teenager I am now 27 years old and this app is for some reason saying my Apple account doesn’t work like ? WTh 🤦♀️ what’s the point of having the apple feature on the app if ? It doesn’t let u sign in or make account and in fact the app was featured on the news 🗞️ it’s messed up that the app doesn't let u sign in or make a new account!!
Shows profiles of impossible matches
I am a guy who has my preference set to gender inclusive, but I get women in my feed who are only looking for other women to room with. There is not any reason for me to see them, and just slows down the process, with me having to check every woman’s profile to see their preference.
literally useless
i have the app in order to find roommate matches, an im never given any options!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i’m constantly being logged out of my account forcefully and i never get any room mate suggestions.
Takes forever to load and gltiches
You’re better off using your laptop because the app takes forever to load and sometimes doesn’t. And it glitches a lot.
terrible
my room requests are not going through and it’s so hard to navigate through. not happy at all!
There’s a bug, it keeps taking me to my about page
I’ve filled in my information but it keeps taking me to the About me page which is extremely frustrating because I can’t even go to chats without it popping up…please fix that.
Not Tinder
Thought this was tinder but no hot chicks
Needs work
It keeps suggesting people who are a 0% match and haven’t actually made their accounts. Should have the option to select a category that’s most important to you ex: cleanliness. so that it will suggest more people who are similar in that category. Also keeps suggesting people who aren’t even looking to dorm in the same building as me
Compatibility ratings make no sense
I see profiles that are a near perfect match based on their answers and yet it says we are 0% compatible... kind of defeats the purpose of the app. There is also no way to sort profiles by gender.
I’ll be honest, not very useful
Ok, so I don’t know if it’s me, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to select same gender/gender neutral housing, which is a problem. The app might tell you 100% match, but in their profile it says they, who are a different gender than you, wish for same gender housing. Like... that’s kind of a big deal, and a massive contributor to what someone wants when they’re trying to find a roommate. Also... c’mon... who was asking for what is essentially tinder for finding roommates? Look, I get what they were trying to do, but at this point the app isn’t there yet. Maybe at some point it will, maybe this is the way everyone will be finding roommates in a few years, but at the moment it feels like a poor solution for a problem that may not need fixing.
