This app is garbage. At first it was pretty easy to use, but once I switched phones, I couldn’t view any of my previous posts or profile, but it shows that I have posts. I tried searching the cars I posted by vin only to find that all my info I posted was gone. Lists weren’t saved either. This app has so much more to work on on, it already has the community but it’s limitations make it not worthwhile to use. I tried going on the website and it’s just as bad. No way to view your profile or posts, and it doesn’t save hardly anything. This app could take some ideas from wheelwell which is a much more developed website with similar ideas to this. Spend a little money and hire someone to redo the entire app and I’ll come back, at this point I’m moving on.

The app and idea are very cool, but I’m shocked to see the app was last updated 2 years ago. This means that the aspect ratio isn’t correct for the latest iPhones and it won’t fill the screen completely. This is a really simple update for a developer to complete. There are also some minor usability things that should be fixed. If these issues are resolved I would give it 5 stars, but for now I have to give it 3.

So, there’s nothing inherently wrong with the app. It works as expected. But that’s about the most I can say. Trying to navigate vehicles that you submitted in a chore. Every time you enter a plate, you have to re-enter the state. It would be nice if you could set it to your home state, with the option to switch it if necessary. It’s obnoxious that you HAVE to enter a comment when submitting a car. I usually revert to just saying the color of the vehicle because, for a random car, what do you say? I’d also like to see a function that notifies you if a VIN has been reported stolen. There are a number of other UI improvements that could be made. But as a basic app, it works and I really like using the site. It just deserves better.
