| 2023-10-10 |  | | It's fine, I want to look at boats and save ones to keep an eye on them, and it does exactly that. Has some issues that can be a bother sometimes. 1.Sometimes slow (scroll speed, loading new pages) 2. Sometime will lock up when I favorite a boat that is only corrected with full restart (boat will be in favorite list but will have lost my search parameters) 3.Keeps asking me rate the app even if I have already rated it There are a lot of boats and good search parameters. It's fine |
| 2023-02-19 |  | | Love the boats and pictures, hate the fact that people are allowed to post ads without the price. Also don't like the pop-up financing ads Etc. Would like to see more categories such as inboard, outboard, inboard outdrive, jet Drive Etc. Fishing, pleasure, cuddy cabin overnighter. These kind of things would help to narrow my search. |
| 2022-12-10 |  | | (update 12/22: seemingly no change in app stability) (original review 5/15/20) Crashes / freezes regularly and occasionally photos won't load. Also seems like the app could benefit from including easily selected information points regarding boats that are for sale. Such as, is the trailer or motor included/excluded. Many pontoons do not include trailers and it would be nice to know what's included at first glance. |
| 2022-06-21 |  | | Dear Boat Trader: get your money back. This app is junk. You can't find 1/3 of yhe boats that you can in a browser, the app signs you out after a minute or two, and the interface takes the browser interface and makes it worse. You want people to spend $275 for a listing that can't be found? I don't think so. This app can't be saved. Start from scratch with a new app designer. |
| 2022-05-15 |  | | The app is awful. I spent $160 on an enhanced listing. 1st I was only able to add 3 out of the 12 photos; 2nd- my boat was not listed properly on site, I can never find it. Everytime going into the app if I have saved something it is now gone so I waste time trying to find items previously saved. Waste of money and want a refund!!! |
| 2022-03-02 |  | | Overall this app is good for looking at boat ads. Where it fails is having to sign in every few minutes to save boats you're interested in. I can't view more than a few before being asked to sign in again, and again, and again, and again. It wouldn't be a big deal if I at least went back to the pages I was viewing once I signed in, but I have to recreate my search all over again and try to find where I left off. This gets very frustrating very fast. Please fix. |
| 2021-10-28 |  | | I will try to explain an average search experience that makes working with this app so frustrating. PT. 1) Get an email from BT and see a boat that looks promising. *BAM* the 'open in app' popup obscures the page, so you'd think the app would open to the boat you are reading about in the email. It doesn't. So ... PT. 2) ready for the fact there is no connectivity between email and app, I have copied the exact title of the boat and paste it into the search function of the app, it returns 0 boats |
| 2021-10-01 |  | | Terrible app if the developer is actually used it they would fix it. Double enters letters when trying to find a manufacturer you can't clear out a model without doing a reset and then going to a different manufacturer and coming back to the original manufacturer to actually clear out the selected model. Just terrible. It might have the boat I'm looking for but I'll never find it here or have the patience for it |
| 2021-02-04 |  | | All I wanted to do was open the listings and look through , page by page, like I used to when it was paper. Now I have to give you access to my personal info and all my critical data just to buy a used boat from somebody, or just to look at boat. I'm not interested in letting you look though my ,( Anything). and I have to be looking for a certain kind of vessel, that doesn't exist in your app. How unfriendly can you be? |
| 2021-01-05 |  | | I rarely review apps, but this one is a real pile. Login with oauth doesn't work. Search doesn't work; no results returned for anything. Browsing by category doesn't work. It's essentially totally useless. Perhaps I installed at a time their services are having an interruption, otherwise I can't understand how this would be useful for anything at all. Oh, the annoying ads do work. Btw, I develop apps like this for a living, so I know how to use my phone. Zero stars if it was possible. |
