Roomie Reviews

It be scammers on there trying to set it up like they are going to work with you but they try to take your money. One dude tried to scam me out of $300 for a “deposit “ on a apartment but wouldn’t let me see it in person before paying. And another girl said j could be her roommate but wouldn’t let me see the room before laying $500 . Watch out for scammers on there

I have not gotten a single response to my ad, despite paying extra, and have had multiple technical support issues (I am currently unable to search by how much a roommate is looking to spend). Other issues have been reported to this app, who say, “Thank you for pointing out this issue. We will resolve this bug and push out an update shortly.” In other words, “deal with it,” despite being a paying customer. I believe this app is taking people’s money and not offering any type of service.

Even when I got tricked into buying the ad free version, there are still ads. Impossible to find a roommate either because I’m pretty sure everyone just deletes Roomie after using it for 2 seconds. I know it’s just $3, but honestly I want it back because of how disappointed I am.

Roomie could be really helpful if it weren’t for all the unnecessary fees attached. To message anyone it asks you to pay 99 cents or buy the premium version which just isn’t worth it. Plus, people delete Roomie without deactivating their account which leads to their not being anyone to talk to in the first place.

Super disappointed. Couldn’t get Roomie to register finger tap input, and when I went to their site for support, I couldn’t find any. I decided I might as well try to register on the site, and discovered I could only do so through Facebook—I left social media for my mental health, which means Roomie and site are completely inaccessible for me, on a number of levels. A shame, since it looked promising!

Roomie is SO glitchy that it’s unusable. It won’t let your messages go through half the time, and instead of saying “the message can’t be sent” etc.. your text just disappears into the void without you knowing if it ever sent. Information doesn’t save right, or simply doesn’t save at all. I was extremely disappointed by Roomie

Every time you open you app it will bug out and leave you on a blank screen unable to do anything. God forbid you actually somehow get it to open and try to edit your personal settings because doing so will immediately close Roomie . Do not use Roomie to find people, it is simply impossible.

I spent an hour entering information and downloading pictures and every time I click SAVE, it would find an error that did not exist because what it claimed as an error was all entered properly. And it does not let you save by se tiñó, it makes you waste all your time to tven list non existing errors and tell you have nothing saved nor property description entered. TERRIBLE!!!

I don’t know if it’s the way Roomie looks or something but Roomie feels/looks sketchy. There’s not way to see if an account is “verified” or to know how long someone’s been on the account, and just the overall look of Roomie looks sketch.

Roomie is extremely sloppy and ghetto, don’t even know if I’m taking to real people. No one responds to messages and Roomie lags so much. There’s also something always blocking my screen, it reminds me of using apps on an iPod or iPhone 5. I don’t recommend at all.

The biggest problem that made me decide to leave was the fact that a large amount of people on Roomie have been inactive for a while. Few profiles say they are from 2020. One person i checked their instagram and it said they were a freshmen last year. The this app profile said they were a freshmen this year. So this person was inactive but didn’t delete their account. A lot of people i decided to message were inactive too.

Roomie works like any social network app, but it’s pretty buggy, I tried to watch ads so I could message ppl instead of paying a dollar every time, after watching the ads Roomie would get messed up and have to reboot itself, so I never got to message anyone, maybe paying for the premium would make it better?? But if that’s the case it’s kind of whack that Roomie doesn’t work unless you pay for it. The premium features they listed should be what you pay for, not the basic function of literally opening it and using it.

While it does provide the services stated, I get a notification every day to upgrade to premium, the premium features are not that great and whole experience is clunkier than Facebook marketplace or Craigslist for posting a room.

Maybe the search features are more useful as a tenant but not as a host.

This is the best roommate search app by far. just hands down i applaud them for the one time 99 cent payment option to message people. but every time i message someone i get a notification from… myself? that’s right, Roomie thinks me messaging someone else is me messaging myself? it’s so strange. i’ll upgrade my rating if they fix this!! lol

Love Roomie, but since you’re using my pics I feel like I should get paid 🤣🤣😭

There are so much scammers. They try to get money in many different stupid ways. It needs to be scammers free app. Otherwise very useful

Got Roomie a while ago and was kinda skeptical but this is a great legit way to meet a roommate! You message with people and get to know each other, I’ve met a lot of people going to my school. I even met my roommate through it! Super great app!

Roomies opened up the possibility of a roommate and in literally two days I found the perfect roommate and now I’m looking for the second perfect roommate.

Ranting on Roomies seems to be right place.
Easy to set up and put your property or room up for rent I recommend it.

I never wrote reviews but Roomie is pretty function-able with no cost to you. Enjoy and download
