False advertising is cool now. Thought it was going to be a cool app for looking up yard sales, instead it forces you to sign up for their $10 a month subscription. You don’t even get a free version. There is no free version. Also nowhere on the advertising for the app does it say it’s a subscription paid app. Usually you’ll see where it says in app purchases, which is fine, this doesn’t even say that. It says it when downloading it, like it’s got a paid option vs a stripped down free option. There is NO FREE OPTION! YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS APP.
Not even worth testing because you can't. Stick to checking Craigslist or Facebook groups. Most people that are having garage sales are not even going to use this app. Could have been a great tool but it's a grift. All the developers other apps seem to be just rebranded pay to play models of this. Reviewed the comments before trying myself, because developer seemed responsive and mentioned a free trial. There is in fact no free trial. One thing it did do was collect a bunch of demographic information about my interest in yard sales, then asked to cross app track. Save your money and your privacy and don't even download.
