✓ Thank youThank you, looking forward to seeing these features added back. Glad to see some developers taking the community’s feedback into account. Why keep making the app more and more complex? Other than a few bugs/crashes the app was great prior the most recent update. Please go back to being able to set custom prices(not 30k-40k,big difference.) and have the option for make/model separate. In its current state I do not recommend as they keep making changes that are ruining the app..Version: 7.3.1
✓ Love it but needs some tweaks!I love using this app, especially being able to check the Carfax with one click. What would put this app over the top for me would be the ability to add notes to my saved cars. Especially if I could share with my husband and he could see my notes on why I liked that specific car. I also really wish I had the ability to eliminate cars from my search. Sometimes the Carfax reveals something I’m not ok with but then I see it in the search again the next day and forget that it wasn’t up to par for our needs. I end up feeling like I’m wasting time viewing the same cars over and over again accidentally. Other than that, it really is my go-to car finder app!.Version: 8.1.1
✓ Awful updateThis went from being a daily app for car shopping and car research just car browsing to being totally useless for an iPad user also of the most recent update. It’s stuck on a mini screen like it’s designed for a phone and just stretched to fit the screen. It won’t even go to landscape mode which is the only way I use my iPad. I’m going to have to stop using this app until it returns to useable form for tablet users. I feel like I’ve lost an old friend....Version: 7.3.4
✓ Issues with the appI love this app and use it off and on to look at vehicles for sale. I have a daughter that is about to turn 16 so I have been looking for a car for her for some time now. But my issue is that recently when I do a search for a car it will totally kick me off the app all together. I can’t even search for any cars because as soon as I push the search button it kicks me off. I am really disappointed with the app right now. I really hope this issue is fixed..Version: 6.11.1
✓ Not good on iphone x and aboveWhen you open a car page. The pictures on top are cropped due to ‘the notch’ on the phone and the remainder of the top of the picture is blurred out like it’s ‘tinted’ so you essentially get the bottom half really. Please change that so there’s a bar up there instead of the picture starting from the top. I know it’s more minimalistic the way it is now but it’s not practical on these phones which are prevalent enough out there. It’d be great if you can take this feedback and improve on the app experience. The remainder of the experience is great!.Version: 7.5.2
✓ Excellent but...Can’t select more than one make at a time. Plus when you want to select more than one feature it doesn’t filter both, it add all the cars that have each feature. For example I want a car with leather seats and a third row. I select both features and I get ALL cars with leather seats and all cars with third row, not just the cars with BOTH leather and third row. Hope that makes sense. Otherwise easy as pie I use this app often..Version: 7.12.0
✓ Very user friendlyI am pleasantly surprised at this app. I’ve always gone to autotrader for all my vehicles whether it be with through the website or app but I have a strong feeling I’m going to find my next vehicle and future vehicles through this app. This has vehicles that autotrader doesn’t using the same exact sections. This is extremely user friendly. I will get notified on price drops for vehicles I am interested in. Cars app just got a new user..Version: 7.2.0
✓ Needs Options to Search for Accessibility FeaturesThe overall search experience is great and it’s usually relatively simple to find what you’re looking for. However, I have been looking for wheelchair-accessible vehicles and have found that it’s extremely difficult to find what I’m looking for. Wheelchair ramps, lifts, and steering assists are not available as features, and when I use the keyword search to look for these features, I find maybe 10 results across the entire US. Giving dealers the option to add accessibility options to their features list would make the car shopping much easier for people with disabilities, as most accessibility-oriented websites have a very small selection with outrageous prices..Version: 9.7.1
✓ Good search app, except scrolling could be better.I like using this app to find used cars. But when scrolling quickly and then using my thumb to stop the scrolling, if my thumb happens to hit an advertisement, I inadvertently click on this advertisement, and the app takes me to the ad. Is annoying because I would need to close the ad and return to the Cars app. This doesn’t happen when scrolling on social media apps..Version: 8.0.5
✓ Bug reportDevs, when you select multiple features, it treats it as an OR operator instead of AND. That means that searching for cars with heated seats and a moonroof actually returns more results than if I just search for cars with a moonroof, since searching for both will return any car that has heated seats OR a moonroof. It doesn't work this way when using the website so I assume this is a mistake with the app. Also, it becomes more difficult to specify price as a filter after the initial search. While these bugs make the app less usable, it's overall much better than other apps. Not just because of better design but saved searches, alerts, and filter by auto-emergency braking are hugely helpful features that I haven't found elsewhere..Version: 7.3.4
✓ The app is glitchesI love this app because I am able to make a profile and heart all the cars I like & check the app weekly to see if the cars have been bought or not! Lately I’ve realized the app freezes then it closes automatically! If you can fix that ASAP I would greatly appreciate it! Also when the saved cars get purchased it would be better if you just remove the cars from our saved profile rather then having us remove each purchased car one by one..Version: 6.11.1
✓ Sync ProblemsCreating searches on website (iMac w/recent software w/ Google Chrome) works good, however when running the searches on my iPhone get no results “No information Found”. Searches I created 6 months ago work on the website work fine on the iPhone App, but newly created searches do not work. Seems to be a sync problem between website account & recent iPhone App. Developers please fix this iPhone App, & yes I am using the most recent version available in Apple App Store..Version: 7.11.0
✓ The ups and downs of ever changing software!I use this app daily for the past 6 years. I’ve seen it improve to the point of being a useful tool and then it goes the wrong way. I’m wondering if they are using a different software company? Anyway the most effective tool for me is the filter/features after defining the make and model. Currently the most popular vehicles in the US are pickups, SUV’s and crossovers. The software does a pretty good job on SUV’s and crossovers. However, on pickups the features options available are missing some very important options. First, on half ton pickups we need an option of long or short bed. For example, the f-150 crew cab can be configured in 5.5 bed or a 6.5 bed. If I want to find a 6.5 bed, I’m SOL and will have to look at every single truck to find the few 6.5’ beds out there. It would also be nice to specify max trailer tow options or max payload options. These are important options and should be part of the options list..Version: 7.6.1
✓ Glitchy and Too Narrow for iPad ScreenWhat’s wrong with this app? I have used it on my iPhone for years and liked it. However, I loaded it onto my new iPad and it does not fill the entire screen, but is instead too narrow, much like a standard definition TV program that fails to fill an HDTV screen. This is pretty basic, isn’t it? Failing to fill an iPad screen? It’s also glitchy, as it locked up several times and would not allow me to return to the home screen. I’ve tried it several times, hoping they had corrected these problems, but ended up deleting it every time..Version: 7.16.2
✓ Great Tool for Car BuyingThis app is fantastic. It shows you both new and used cars in your area, compares prices on the vehicle you want with others in your area to get you a fair price, provides you with the car fax in one easy click, and it even has its own calculator/estimator so that you can play around with the numbers of what you’re thinking to put down as a down payment. I highly recommend this app to anyone looking to purchase a new or used vehicle..Version: 7.12.2
✓ Great appOnly one thing im not happy with is that you should be able to save the cars you like without having to open an account... i dont sell cars im just interested on them... im looking to buy a car in the future but i cant save them to compare prices and packages... on safari if i leave the page open i can save all the cars i want... if thats the case then theres no point of having the free app.... just saying... maybe it will help more.Version: 6.8.0
✓ Bad updateAfter the last update the app became not user friendly. You search for a make and after looking at cars and if you want to search for another make the make from the first search stays checked!!! To select the year now you have to select newest and oldest year in two different screens and you cannot skip a year between oldest and newest instead of checking the years you want in one screen like before!!! With this update you need to go over many screens and clicks which is too much and annoying. Why make complicated an app that was working great ???.Version: 8.0.3
✓ One thing different about newest version of the appThe only thing I dislike about the newest version of the app is that there’s no clear way to tell whether or not the cars that have been “saved” are still available. On the old version, when you clicked on your saved cars list, if the cars were no longer available, that would be clearly stated across the place where the picture of the car was. If this could be fixed it would be extremely helpful. Thanks!.Version: 8.0.5
✓ Great app....has a serious Glitch and crash issue thoughI just downloaded the application. The search filters are pretty good but I would like to see more filter options for specific options, specifically for the interior, and the ability to search multiple different brands/models at one time for a direct comparison. The glitch and crash....After you select a vehicle to view out of the filtered list you have created you cannot return to the original list without the app crashing and restarting. It happens every time. All in all it’s a great app and it seems to have a connection with more dealers than the “other” automobile search app. Please fix the issues..Version: 6.11.0
✓ App is ok, please updatePicture loading time takes too long. This could possibly be due to too many posters have too large of file size they’re uploading & it’s doesn’t compress properly. I feel that allowing a user to select multiple models from a manufacturer (or from several manufacturers). For instance, let’s say I’d like to only see Toyota: 4Runners & Landcruisers as well as Jeep: Wranglers all in one feed. That’d be nice. Perhaps another feature would be to allow to shop for engines without models. Meaning, maybe I wanna see any auto which features a GM LS3 motor. Or anything with a Cummings? Furthermore, you’ve a lot of post which are incomplete. There should be a fail safe that a seller cannot post a listing if the form isn’t complete. Too many, “unspecified” vehicles in here. This could also allow for potential user to discover/search for a feature which they may be unaware of as an available option on other autos. For instance, a rear (back) window which rolls up and down. Some Tacoma’s, 4Runners & Tundras have this feature but another manufacturer has a model with this feature too (I’ve forgotten who & which model. See, this is a useful feature to have). I’ve more ideas, but you get it. I’m not putting it in blast. It’s a decent app. It’s my ‘go to’ when researching rides. It’s not been updated in...forever. Perhaps some of these things are in the next version..Version: 7.16.2
✓ Filters Need ImprovingWhen filtering by vehicle features the app shows you “or” results not “and” results. If I’m looking for a vehicle with a heated steering wheel and third row seating, I don’t want those selected options to show me vehicles with either of those options, I want to see vehicles with BOTH of those options. I feel like the app used to show vehicles with both options but now it shows vehicles with either option. That makes selecting more than one option completely useless..Version: 7.11.0
✓ The app is incredible and makes finding the best vehicle easy to findThis app is so slow / glitchy that every time I scroll through I almost inevitably click on the wrong car or on one of there MANY ads they have playing all the time. I get the need to make money but every time I click back another full screen ad pops up. And after 5-10 I have to watch a 20-40 second long video about a game I will never play in my life. They keep adding new features and the app keeps getting slower. I would recommend just using the online version as it is much easier to navigate and much better functioning..Version: 7.12.2
✓ TMIWhen it works, it's great! Too bad it only works about 10% of the time. Crashes more often and works more slowly than any other app I have ever tried. Maybe the volume of information they provide is just too much for my little phone to handle. UPDATE: Not sure whether it was an upgrade to the software, or the fact that I got a new phone, but for the past several months (other than having the app freeze when you first open it, presumably while it is connecting to the remote servers) there has been no instability or any other issues. So, to quote myself, "When it works, it's great!" UPDATE 2: Really wish they would re-develop the app for iPad. Nice that the old version still functions. It’s just kind of odd to view because the iPad version looks as though you have set your phone on top of your iPad screen..Version: 7.5.2
✓ Best car site, very user friendly.Love the site best user friendly one on the market. The only thing I do not like is there is no icon to have a post looked at by administrators to have a post removed because it is misleading. I always search lowest mileage but there are people who put 0 or 85 miles in which these are high mileage cars which I refuse to buy. Their should be a review icon so this can be modified or removed from site because sometimes I will scroll through a whole page of cars that have 0 miles which they have very high mileage when I look into it and waste my time..Version: 7.5.2
✓ Mobile App and Max DigitalThe DealerCenter Mobile App is amazing. It is very easy to use and brings all pertinent information to the fore front. Max Digital gives you all the vehicles’ market values so that you know exactly how to properly price your vehicles. It is also easy to add the vehicles and photos to your inventory from the app. Our representative for DealerCenter Maryann Iglesias is one of the best that I ever encountered. She goes over and beyond to make sure that all of our needs are handled and always seems to be available. I totally recommend this application and its service to anyone looking to making their car marketing experience the best!.Version: 8.5.2
✓ Happy to review!Short review: It’s a great and intuitive app! So easy and detailed! You won’t find better results using anything else. Long review: Just find the make, model, price range, and distance (you’re willing to travel) and you get great results. (I usually ‘sort by’ “Newest First”) If you want to search with more filters such as a mileage cap, or specific features you want, you can narrow down your results! The app will save your preferences for your next session so you won’t need to go through the process every time. You can contact dealers or users directly from the vehicle you’re interested in and even see dealer reputation, reviews, and other inventory. It’s easy. I’ve been using it for years. Btw. A really cool and rare thing is the developers of this app listen to its users and do their best accordingly. It’s greatly appreciated Devs!.Version: 7.3.2
✓ Terrible user experienceWho approved this update? Searching for a car is an insanely terrible experience. It forces you to “reset” your current search by allowing multi-select. Also, after selecting a Make, you have to hit the “back” button in order to select a model? What? So weird. It’s really not hard to make searching for a car an easy experience. I really hope they update the search again and get rid of the current search method..Version: 9.3.0
✓ Great resource but bad slowIt’s good when it works because you can look up cars in your area and beyond. Biggest gripe is that it’s been getting slower for the past 12 or so months and seems to be getting worse. At the beginning it freezes for about 3 mins, I’m guessing to update databases. Just not very efficient. Lately it’s just been freezing altogether when looking at specific vehicles. Hope they figure this out because it is a good app when it works..Version: 6.6.4
✓ Best App to search for cars!I have been using this app and a couple of competitors apps for some time now searching for a car to get at the end of this year. I can say with 100% confidence this is the best/easiest app to navigate. The UI is incredible with all of the different filters you can add to your search. I love how it narrows it down and tells you how many cars are going to be in the search based on which filter you select i.e exterior color, year, etc. I don’t typically write reviews so, obviously this app has given me a great experience!.Version: 7.10.1
✓ Amazing Car Buying siteThis is super easy to navigate, and to contact the seller, it usually has all the information the car needs with pictures. I live in long island, and even though i live in the state of new york, i live 15 miles away for connecticut(across the Long Island Sound) if you can have an option to find cars that are let's say a 15 minute drive from you, not in a mile radius, because most of the cars on the app are across a body of water..Version: 7.16.2
