It's a nice app, but i do not like how much is monetised. you have to pay to be verified, pay to message certain ads,and there is no one-off message purchase. You have to purchase for a period of time. the app does not seem to respect certain filters like couples considered ,and it also seems to ignore the pet suitable filter as well. The good points I have noticed, though, is that it tells you how responsive someone is. it uses actual ID verification,and the app is easy to use and navigate

after years of using this app and website. their search function is absolutely useless, I've contacted support before about it and they won't even admit there is a problem. even if you're specific about the location you're searching then add some radius to it and it shows random places totally out of range of the search radius. why? is it some kinda marketing technique? it's infuriating. and a complete waste of time..

Hi Dominic, the radius you add to your search will begin from the very outer edge of the postcode, which means you may get results from further away. We recommend reducing the number of miles you add, or using our map facility. We'd be happy to help you further; please email us at [email protected]. Best wishes, The SpareRoom Team

You get spammed by users who don't read your profile and just send messages to everyone, even ones that are way above your budget. They delete your chats and quickly, so if you want to have a record of what you've talked about with your landlord or tenant, take a screenshot of all your messages. The (male) landlord I found on the app turned out to be a liar and who even harassed me. The app didn't provide a way to report him. Doesn't seem like they care about your security.

Hi Maria, we're sorry to hear someone may not have read your ad thoroughly. We can recommend using our Auto Reply option for anyone you find unsuitable. We do archive messages, but we can retrieve conversations should you need them. Best wishes, The SpareRoom Team

What’s new

In this update, we've introduced new features for buddying up with other users. You can now search for people looking to rent a whole property with others and see who has expressed interest in a whole property when viewing that ad.

We've also added manual photo rotation and made it quicker and easier to search for suitable users for your room or whole property.
