Great app...but
@paulmirano

The app is so slow. Usability -2


Great idea but not ready for prime time?
Gigilovespuppies

I like the concept but unless you can filter options by location this doesn't seem worthwhile.


Garbage
Miguel Anthony

Spammy. Terrible ripoff of TaskRabbit. Kept emailing and calling me even after I uninstalled.


Looks cool but needs a lot of improvements

This app really needs a lot of improvements, has a lot of bugs, it's super slow, and needs a lot of things fixed !!!


Broken... Great concept, but not ready
Buhsephine

I signed up via the app, but the second time I tried to log in it decided not to accept my already-accepted user email and password, and there is no reset or forgotten password link. The verification link in my welcome email is not a web link at all, and even before being unable to log in, the app crashed repeatedly during various tasks. I have a fully updated iphone 5, there should be no reason this is happening. I feel like this should have been in development for much longer before release. Also, the app states on the welcome screen that it is for residents of Canada, but this is not made clear anywhere else. Hopefully they actually expanded and that wasn't updated, because that would be an awful waste of my Oregonion, USA residing time. If these myriad problems are addressed, I'll be back. I love the idea.


Yes I am in Victoria.
Merdroc

I am in Victoria, MN. The app thinks I am in Victoria, BC.


Lots of bugs
Mehlski

I keep getting bumped off. I can't change the city they say I live in. People on here just want to have sex. Hello people.... Get a life.


App quality
CashereGizmo

This app is a great idea. However, some improvements could be made. The intent is not clearly laid out. Also, there are way too many people posting personal information and asking inappropriate questions.


Canada only?
Mr. Ekted

Nowhere in the app description does it say anything about this being just an app for Canadians helping people. But in the verification email, it does. After signing up, I browsed tasks, and there was one task in the whole world. 1! This app won't last long... Deleted. Oh and ps - there needs to be a way to cancel your account and unsubscribe from email.


Doesn't work
Matthew 9:38

Crashes, loads wrong location, can't sort by location, doesn't work at all. Why did Apple feature this?!
