Pottery Barn for Negative User Reviews

Can’t create registryI can’t create a registry it keeps sending me back to the beginning. Also none of the text is showing up. And when I try to create a new account they say I can’t because I already have a registry account created!.Version: 4.0.1

ShippingShipping charges are outrageous on furniture!.Version: 4.0.1

Just the websiteWhy bother.Version: 3.11

Not worth the time and effortApp looks like a glorified wrapper for the mobile version of their website and it fails even at that. No option to remember login info (not even user ID) between sessions. I guess you could call it a security feature. Main reason I got the app was to manage a registry and after adding several items on a PC and then switching over to mobile app items did not show up. Had to log off completely to get them to eventually show. Initially couldn’t even add items to registry but I guess they have since added that feature. In my frustration I ended up using Bed Bath and Beyond mostly for registry items. Had I used the app further, I’m sure I would have more to say. My advice is wait till they have a more worthy app version..Version: 3.2

It doesn’t recognize my correct login infoThe first time I opened the app it worked well. The next time I tried to look at it, it wanted me to log back in. It kept saying my account info was wrong, so I reset my password. It still didn’t recognize my login information. I can login just fine on the mobile site or online, but whatever reason it always says my login isn’t recognized. It is very annoying, and it makes having the app useless. You would think pottery barn would have a higher quality app..Version: 3.11

Issue in see full details please fixI would like to purchase a sectional but whenever I select SEE FULL DETAILS nothing happens. Please fix.Version: 3.11

Won’t let me sign inAt first this app worked perfectly for me and my fiancé ! Soon after it wouldn’t let me sign in. Saying that there is no account matching my email address ! But when I put it in my browser the website works perfectly with my password. Please fix this! I get married in 2 weeks and want to track my gifts!!!.Version: 2.10

Basic registry app that doesn’t keep you logged inThis app is pretty basic and simple to use to curate your registry but it doesn’t keep you logged in which is absolute garbage. I like to check my registry a few times a day and having to sign in every time is so prehistoric. We are in 2019 Pottery Barn, get your stuff together..Version: 3.10

Can’t log in.Can log in fine on the website, but not the app..Version: 2.10

Password errorThe app will not let you log in even with correct credentials. Customer service was hilariously inadequate, essentially telling me to just use the website..Version: 2.10

Disappointed, can't even log inAt first I was excited to try and use this app. I was not even able to log in to the app at all which was disappointing. I even had to change my password several times thinking I typed it in wrong. It still did not recognize me even as an account user. Sad to say I won't be using this app or the registry service from here..Version: 2.10

Can’t sign inI can’t even sign in to my registry. Works on the website, but not on the app..Version: 2.10

Not good for registryThis app doesn’t make it easy to register for items. The only items I can add to my list are the top 100 recommended items that they’ve compiled. There have been plenty of times that I’ve thought of something quickly and haven’t been able to add so I end up forgetting. My list is half the volume of what it could be..Version: 3.11

Too slowApp is upper slow.Version: 3.12

App more fir registryThe website is far better than ordering from the app unless you want to register which is really limiting did not like app at all for shopping!.Version: 3.13

They lost my sons bed.My son didn’t get his bed because they tried to deliver it twice, but were missing pieces each time! Smell ya later. L.Version: 3.13

AwfulThese app new version is awful not working like is supposed to.Version: 3.13

Not Happy With UpdateLatest update took away my favorites list. Can’t retrieve it and no way to even create a favorites list. This latest update appears to be completely geared towards a Registry. Also, not as user friendly as previous app..Version: 3.13

DisfunctionalThe app gives an unspecified error that the data is not acceptable and is not in the correct format. It would not allow for the creation of the registry. Also, when leaving this review the rext would not appear on screen so excuse any typo..Version: 4.0.1

Terrible app. Won’t allow you to log inI haven’t been able to log in to the app, but can log into the website with no problem.Version: 2.10

Signed up in store, difficult to manageThe app is sending us through a sign up loop between our various pottery barn accounts. The app also was very slow in store so we didn’t add as much as we wanted… guess we’ll get it elsewhere..Version: 4.0.1

HorribleApp wouldn’t process my accurate log in info. That’s after it was impossible to find just the PB section (only showed WE, PBK and WS).Version: 3.4

Minimal FunctionalityYou can't add items to the registry online with this app. It's for in-store scanning and editing pre-existing registry items only..Version: 2.0.9

UnstableCan't even open open the app. It just just crashes..Version: 2.0.7

Not very usefulTwo stars because it’s still easier to use in some ways than the full website; but it’s not a good registry app. You have to log in each time. It seems more focused on the in store experience..Version: 3.2

Don’t use for registryThis app is just a hassle. My fiancé and I tried to use for our registry, but after repeated failed attempts gave up. When I called customer service I was told “sometimes the registry doesn’t work for people on the app”. No help was given. What a joke. I’ll stick to crate & barrel..Version: 3.11

I second it - not worth the timeAfter having chosen both Pottery Barn and Crate & Barrel for a wedding registry, hands down I recommend you go with C&B. The app is a glorified web page, does not remember your credentials, and my wedding guests purchased gifts that did not get recognized as purchased. AND the return process is not easy. Any online purchases (the vast majority) are all returned via USPS mail in SEPARATE gift cards. And any returns in store are also SEPARATE gift cards that CAN NOT be combined. Tedious and time consuming..Version: 3.2

Can get on at leastLogin issue has been fixed. Wish there was more functionality to add items..Version: 2.10

AwfulDoes everything you’d think a registry app SHOULDN'T do. Edit quantities of items? No. Remember log in? No. Easily add items? No..Version: 3.4

Awful appBroken. Will not accept input that is correctly formatted per the app. Could not complete after multiple times..Version: 4.0.1

Mobile site is better than appThis app is trying to be a desktop site from 2004. Like the other users have said, I’m consistently logged in and the logged out. The navigation with the back and forth arrows is difficult to manage on a phone. Top down it’s messy to move through. The mobile site is easier to use than the app..Version: 3.11

Won't open - crashesCan't even open the app. Crashes every time..Version: 2.0.7

Not for shoppingI’m not sure what happened to this app, but it is no longer for shopping. It is only for creating a registry. I can’t even check the status of an order. Stick to the website. This app is horrible..Version: 3.13

Touch sensitivity suckkkksssssThis is the most frustrating kind of app imaginable you scroll through and the sensitivity is turned up so high on the scrolling that if your finger is moderately close to an item you’ll go into the item instead of scrolling..Version: 3.10

A Registry Ap That DOESN’T Let You Add To Your Registry!Aside from the lack of an automatic login feature, this app doesn’t let you actually ADD stuff to your registry! You can click the “add to registry” button all you like, but the only real option is to “add to cart”. So, the only thing this ap is really good for is seeing what has been purchased and what hasn’t. Annoying, irritating, and a waste of space on my phone..Version: 3.6

Can’t log inUnable to log into my registry despite entering the email and password correctly (100% sure if this after the umpteenth try)… it says data is not in the correct format, as other reviews are saying. Must be a glitch in the app. Have tried deleting and reinstalling without any success..Version: 4.0.1

Not the bestI am okay with having a registry at Pottery Barn but I’ll stick to adding things using their mobile site or going on an actual computer. The app is terrible and has been a headache. Every time I have gone to use the app it has signed me out and then I can’t sign back in. It never recognizes the log in information (that I always double check). I’ve had to delete and download the app again to be able to sign back in. When it works it’s great, but it rarely functions well for me. You’re better off just using the mobile site..Version: 3.11

Awful for shoppingI’ve never in my life written a review for an app, but in this case, I felt compelled. I’m not sure why PB changed it, however, my best guess would have to be that they do not want you to shop via the app. Perhaps they want to steer you toward their website for some reason? It seems to be designed specifically and solely for creating and managing a registry (I cannot speak to the app’s performance for that purpose — maybe it’s good?🤷🏼‍♀️). Anyway, I was never in love with the app to begin with [i.e., previous version], but I loved Pottery Barn enough to put up with it. Eventually, I got used to it. It grew on me. This current version is so useless to me, I will most likely delete it. I guess I could try to use it my creating a “Registry” for myself then shop from that list— that’s if you're able to use a payment to make a purchase? I’ll probably just use the website. Super disappointing and frustrating, though..Version: 3.13

Better Off with ZolaThis app is a nightmare. It doesn’t keep you logged in, it’s not easy to manage and they do not notify you if an item on your registry has been discontinued. In addition it is not user friendly when navigating between their sister stores of william Sonoma and West Elm. Do not water your time with this app it will only cause headaches. If you need a good registry app for your wedding use Zola!.Version: 3.9

Full catalog not availableI can login and navigate the app just fine, but it looks like the app is only designed for registering in-store. It would be way more useful if the registry app integrated with the full online catalog so you could add items while browsing virtually..Version: 2.10

I’ll register for more elsewhereSeemingly convenient app to adjust your registry, but there are many glitches. The main complaint I have is that the app never recognizes my login information, so I continually have to reset my password. The scrolling function also jumps around and freezes up..Version: 3.11

DisappointedAt first I was super excited because I thought I would be able to register online on my phone through the app. But that is not the case at all! Basically it is a scanning gun for your phone when you’re in store. Wish there was a search option to be able to just register out of store..Version: 2.10

Just have a normal shopping app.Can’t even share a catalog item with someone.Version: 4.0.1

Will not let you log inDon't use the app, use the mobile website. It's your best bet. Login information works fine with the mobile website but not the app. Will be removing this app from my phone..Version: 2.10

Doesn’t make navigating easy1st. This app is useless on iPad. You may as well not use the app. If you were adding something to your registry, it forces you to click on more options to then add something a registry. Not user-friendly.Version: 3.12

Far behind other registry appsThe Pottery Barn registry app is a pathetic excuse for an app. You cannot add items to your registry via the app, you can only remove. Currently, I am unable to login with my same information as always. My login works on the website, but after 6 months of using the app, no longer works. More headache than it’s worth!.Version: 2.10

DeletingThe updates to this and the WIlliams Sonoma app are a step in the wrong direction. The website and the app never really worked well together or reflected the same information but now the app looks just like the website - homepage with countdown and number of items purchased are gone and I have to login every time I open the app, which was one of the few benefits to the app previously (no login). I will be deleting..Version: 3.1
