Apartmentscom Rental Finder App Reviews

You can save the apartments you like as “favorite” while you logged in. I like this function. BUT, be prepared that you will be logged out every five minutes so that you must log in again to find your favorite places OR add new favorites.

No matter where you want to live it on here!!! And more!!!

Yes more helpfull app

Ability to specific .5 baths. Like 2.5 3.5. Not just 2+

There’s a server error that shows up on the app everytime I try to open an apartment from the list for more details. Please fix it soon. Thanks

I normally love this app, but about two weeks ago it stopped working. Not a single rental has shown up and I can’t access anything. I deleted the app twice and re-download it and still nothing so I just deleted it for good and won’t be re-downloading it again.

I’m finished with this app! Every time I start to use it, the app decides to log me out and I loose everything. They act like this is some secure NASA app or something, it’s just a (now useless) apartment app with far better competing apps to use without the constant annoying logging out!!

I don’t like to write reviews, but I went out of my way to write a good review

Wife and I are looking to move in the next year. This app has allowed us to search for places to move to while filtering out areas or listing that do not match our needs.

This app is full of scam artist and fraud. It’s easy to find a roommate however I got scammed by a lady I reported her to the app and they did nothing, not even a message back to thank me for reporting the scam artist. Even after this lady all the people that messaged me were sketchy and the people I messaged never got back to me. Roomster is a waste of time and it’ll take away your faith in humanity.

Wish they included the names of the areas like they do on the website so I know exactly what I’m circling

Love it. Thanks to the developer

Whatever kind of map you’re using, stop. Addresses taken directly from google for my job don’t seem to show up. How I’m supposed to plan my commute when I’m being told my carefully typed address cannot be found is beyond me. Thanks for wasting my time and phone space.

I tried to find an apartment, and within days, on the app, I was able to find the right place. The prices are true to the listing. Never written a review before, but had to give credit when it due. Apartment.com really made it easy for me!

Thanks for actually making this a user friendly app

All of these updates and I still have to log into my account online to see my favorites. Aside from that, this is probably the best - and my personal favorite - app for apartment searching & I’ve literally downloaded them all. Just wish I could view my favorites through the app!

This app is great for finding listings and noting potential up-front fees but it leaves a lot to be desired. First off, the constant timeouts forcing you to login again is super frustrating. Secondly, it’d be nice to be able to set up a co-searcher in your account so they could see your favorited listing versus sending multiple texts with defaulted mile-long descriptions. I also wish you could rank favorites listings and potentially add notes about what you liked. Other than that, though, it has been my primary source of searching for an out-of-state rental.

I found a really nice place from here. They update everything often. Every now and then some prices will be slightly off. Or sometimes it dosnt day what promos the apartments are having. But for the most part it hasn’t failed me. Find availability, room, bath prices and filter to what location you looking in. To what amenities come with what. Floor plans for most apartments. They even have the proper phone numbers to the apartment complex so you can call and ask your self on what is what. its dope, def makes it easier.

False information!!! App needs an update because some apartments in my area or near my area do have available apartments that this app says not available

I’m looking for an apartment and everything is easy to read and navigate through.

Great app for locating your next residence with pictures, descriptions and filters.

I inquired on one listing, nothing more. I found the perfect apartment, and only looked at the one I rented and now call home.

The app lets you see some filters, the website lets you see others. I would think the app would have every feature and the website would just have a limited features but it seems like there’s some things missing. I also like the commute feature but I wish that you could further apply your filters to the commute feature it seems like once you use the commute filter that’s the only filter you can consider in that search but I’m trying to get it to as few options as possible. Also it will say I have hundreds of results but only show like five apartments. I’m not sure what that’s about but I would much rather it say five and be five then say hundreds and list five. When I apply a bunch of filters, I don’t want a lot of options, if I did, I would apply less filters. No need to be misleading.

Too many apartment complexes will post 60+ pictures. Can you please force these companies to create separate listings so that when I set filter criteria, I actually get filtered listings? It’s an otherwise great app, but it’s virtually unusable trying to find an apartment in an urban area with tons of new developments.

There are many apts listing but it’s just scam, i visited 2 apts listings but they all fake and a awful scam

Very helpful and useful

Every time I’m on the app I get logged out and have to keep logging back in. It’s annoying, but overall I do like the app and pictures and of course the 3D.

It’s annoying that you have to create an account within the app that constantly times out and forces you to keep logging in. It also doesn’t help in searching for an apartment when there are multiple ads that are clearly (and sometimes not so obviously) scammers, which not only wastes time, some poor idiot is eventually going to fall for one of them and end up screwed. Other than that, it’s an easy to use app and once you do create an account, the features that help you save/ mark rentals you’ve already looked at/ etc. are convenient.

I have an iPhone X. I don’t have an option to choose my file format. Your app doesn’t support all the photos taken on an iPhone for over a year. Get your act together and update the acceptable photo file formats. Is it really that difficult to stay up to date??

Love the app but took 1 star because ratings of the apartments listed on the app never quite match the internet reviewa

Easy to navigate and current.

I’m in the process of moving out on my own for the very first time. This app has been incredibly helpful in finding apartments in my area!

I mean it has apartments but they don’t check any of the listings. A lot are false and are listed under the wrong filters. I know several in Los Angeles are literally a lie. Like they have zero vacancies but leave the room up which makes no flipping sense. And several have false pricing. It’s bait and switch disguised by o *subject to price change* but it’s not a change if it was never the listed price to begin with. Wish they verify things somehow. Like they could call and just ask like I did and they would know it’s not a good listing. And if you aren’t sign in and simply leave the app to take a call or send a message it wipes all your progress which is just plain stupid.

So I figured being Apartments.com and having big names like Jeff Goodblum that this would be the website and app to use as I try to find a place to stay. Except the app isn’t very good on the user interface angle and I don’t seem to be able to block certain listings. And the information so far is not up to date on 4 of the 4 places I’ve contacted. And one has yet to respond using in app messaging. Do not recommend.

This app is great shows you apartment in your price range that has what you need and tell you what the deposits is and the application fees are so you can see how much you’ll be paying to move in

I’ve used other apps before and they were nothing like this one. This app is amazing. I can filter on what I’m looking for and then type in the town and it will pop up if anything is available! It’s so easy! I highly recommend this app!

It’s easy to navigate

Lots of listings and great filtering abilities. App is very unstable. I can’t search because the app keeps jumping from house to house. That’s beyond frustrating. Trying to share with my husband and it’s never the same house I was looking at. 😡 Hopefully they can fix that. They would accomplish more.

Filters don’t work as they should. Drawing the map around an area to search helped only a little more. Try the Craigslist app—it’s a little better. Better yet—just do a Google search.

This app is great for narrowing down your options if you know what you’re looking for. It’s so great to specify #beds and baths, pet friendly, washer dryer, apartment gym etc AND you can use key word finder like “smoke free” to make sure that the apartments fit your criteria. I also love the map view so I can see how far away it is from cities etc and other options. The favorite list is convenient too for going back and comparing options. I actually have no negative feedback or comments for how it can be better, it worked perfectly for me to find an apartment that I love!

It’s a great app that brings together the basic descriptions of most apartment complexes in any given area, it could still be improved by mentioning rent specials, or incorporating pictures taken by residents or others. Still, its a great place to start.

Ignore any posting older than an hour, it’s either bait for a switch or “just got leased out this morning”. You’ll need to drive by them to verify the address really exists, and since you’re out there in your car you can cruise around the neighborhood for real vacancy signs, just like you’d have to do with no app at all. The app is just a distraction at a point where you don’t want to be wasting time.

Easy to use application and easy to understand system. I use this when I need to find areas that’s close to my business trips. Great quality places.

I’ve been using this app for a couple weeks trying to find my new home and I have three main issues. One of which has only been happening the past few days or so. I keep getting a “service error” “cannot access apartments data” message and none of the pictures will load but all the text will. I’m on my phone and hooked up to WiFi and can access all other things easily. Why is this app the only one? Another thing is that I will find and draw out a map area of the places I want to canvas while looking for an apartment... I’ll look for a bit and then have to do something so I’ll lock my phone and go about my business. When I come back to the app the most perfectly drawn map of all my favorite places is gone. So it seems as though every time I get busy and close the app... when I come back I have to redraw my whole map and find where I left off (hopefully) it’s very annoying. Lastly there is something up with the favorites. I keep finding apartments I like with no heart on them and I’ll add them to my favorites... but then it says “removed from my favorites” so I now have an app that only shows me some of my favorite listings and hides the rest? It’s all very confusing and annoying. If realtor.com’s app showed as much info on each listing as this one I’d be switching back.

Amazing app! Easier to manage than Zillow and has more information like reviews.

Apartments.com app is amazing,is functional,accurate,updated often and Is a very clean app with limited advertising.Much better than Zillow rentals.

This app is the best you can find when searching for an apartment.

You can’t sort filter results by “year property built” and favorites can’t b sorted at all. It’d b nice if i could sort my favorites by “high/low price” or “high/low sqft”. Add those things and I’ll raise my review rating.

It’s a great app it’s been very helpful to me and my family.

This is my favorite App for apartments so far !

Simple ,Free and effective

Great app to find what you really need.

The prices and availability don’t match the websites of the apartments. I Googled them to compare and contrast and many listings were off by hundreds of dollars or aren’t available until a later date than posted. You’d be better off Googling “apartments (city you live in)”. The app is TERRIBLE at keeping you logged in. Every time I open the app, my “session has expired”, prompting me to log in again. It’s annoying.

When I signed up for this app, I de-selected the option to receive emails. Now that I see you deliberately disregarded my consent (or lack thereof), I will now be unsubscribing and using a different company to locate my next apartment.

Every apartment that i have contacted promoting availability is found to not have openings after every phone call. These apps are frustrating when the information provided is unreliable nearly every time.

It has a greatest amount of apartments compared to anyone else, but lacking some good filter options like Concrete construction, built in (year) Photos are slow to load and the ratings are completely different when compared to other sites. Seriously ive never seen a bad review on here- makes me question all reviews.

Organized app, very helpful. Haven’t found a place yet but I have visited many potential living places.

I love this app and use it quite often. But you need to do some bug fixes or something. It’s been crashing upon open lately, about 4-5 tries before it finally works. So, do your thing.

I love the app but since getting the new update, the app keeps closing every time I try to open it. Can I get some help?

I’ve loved this app and I’ve found it to be a great resource when looking for apartments. However, over the past week the app has been crashing non stop. Every time I go to open the app I have to attempt to open it 7 or 8 times before it doesn’t crash on me.

App keeps crashing after full uninstall/reinstall with latest version on iOS 12 being run on iPhone 8. Unusable.

It takes about five tries before it will stay open after the latest update and allow me to check out where there are apartments.

Garbage app, crashes non stop. If you log in to save your favorites it’ll log you out and delete everything.

Newest update won’t open app and keep open

App cant come up on ios12. As soon as i open, it crashes.

I love this app it’s very helpful, but it has a couple problems. In most places I search it will have 4/5 stars but horrible reviews and now since the update the app crashes as soon as I click on it. I had to use the website to do my researching cause it hardly works anymore and I deleted the app several times and reinstalled it. I’m not sure if anyone else has this issue also.

How in the world does this make it past QA? Do you guys even test the app?

Like the title says all the information that could be wrong is. If it says there are vacancies, chances are there aren’t. You’re better off typing “apartments” into google maps and cold calling all of them.

Open App And It Just Shuts Down After The Latest Update

My boyfriend and I recently started looking for something roughly halfway between our two (very far apart) workplaces. This app has been SO helpful in letting me put in my basic dealbreaker requirements (in-unit laundry, parking), price range, etc, and finding places that actually line up with those. I also love that I can type in a specific search area, but if I want to zoom out and see what else is nearby, I can just explore the map without having to re-enter all my preferences. The details for each listing are thorough and organized in a way that’s easy to read and understand. You can also “favorite” listings for future reference, which is especially great when you’re comparing places in a variety of places on the map. Overall, this app is super user-friendly, thorough, and exactly what we need.

When I Open The App It Shuts Right Back Down & Closes Basically Crashes

Keeps crashing with iOS 12, many listings are not up to date

The app priced the apartment $100 a month lower than they had it for. Forced me into another lease at my old apartments because time was important....

Crash crash crash!!

Enough said. Good apartment finding app when it works.

The pricing they have on the app is so accurate to the pricing when you call. I just love this app so much when looking for homes and apartments.

Easy to navigate, comprehensive layout, I have multiple apps for apartment seeking, and only two are top of the line, and this being the better of the two.

This newest update keeps crashing. Shame because this was a super convenient app & im actually in the middle of apartment hunting.... fix soon!

This app is pretty cool

I love this app, but it constantly signs me out of my account even when I’m using the app.

I love this app

Great UI and easy to navigate, but that doesn’t mean much when the listings are mostly inaccurate and/or dishonest. Example– I live in Chicago, so finding a place with a dedicated parking spot is essential. I will check the option to only show places with a parking spot available and see several options, but they end up being “street” parking (which is not what we are asking for, and they know it). Lately I’ve seen list lie about in-unit laundry as well. I check the option for IN-UNIT W/D only to be offered places with “laundry facilities available”... again, not the same and they know it. The dev team needs to do better in vetting the listings and removing the false options. At the VERY LEAST, there should be an option for users to report falsified listings. Step it up!

This app lists rentals that are available as “no availablility” . They don’t know what’s available and what’s not . I know this because I’m a landlord and my property is always listed this way even though there are openings . It also shows inaccurate locations of where the properties actually are at . I would rate at no stars if I could .

I love this app it really helps me look for what I’m looking for !!

Don’t get me wrong this app is GREAT! But i keep noticing it logs me out every time. If that can be fixed it would be great i don’t wanna lose things I’ve saved or favorite. Please fix ASAP thank you :)

Great app!!!

Me permite ver las opciones de alquiler, precios y demás pero no me permite ver las fotos

this app is not only super easy to use but it makes finding an apartment so much easier! I definitely recommend this app if you’re looking for an apartment, it’s not complicated at all.

I like this app so far, but i just think its really annoying how when i favorite a listing its never in my favorites. i’ve done this at least six times and yet nothing in my favorites.

Every time I open this app, it doesn’t attempt to load anything, it immediately says it can’t load anything, and I should connect to WiFi. Even though I am connected to WiFi.

The app is great would be nice if there were a bit more filters with the pet options. Weight restrictions, breed restrictions etc

Easily see what’s available and when things will be available. Shows detailed info of apartments. Makes it very easy to contact property renters by email and phone.

I’ve tried several apps for my area and this one was the quickest , easiest and the most thorough. It’s simple for me and I’m almost 60. You can keep a list of places too. Send them to who you want to. More than I’m able to say here. Do yourself a favor, use this one, it helped me find my place. Happy hunting.😀

Very useful

Excelente

Great and easy to use app, thank you!

Beware, this whole company is shady. Only good reviews of buildings allowed, tons of scammers out there own contact information instead of the property managers. Look elsewhere if you’re looking for a place to rent.

What’s the point of logging me out every session? It’s unlikely anyone’s going to use my phone to search for apartments.

I absolutely love the layout and the accessibility of this app! The developers did a wonderful job with the layout. It provides you with all the useful information about almost every apartment. Not to mention that this is very up to date. Overall great app!

The app is horrible with keeping me signed in. Ever so often when I iron the app it throws a pop up randomly saying ‘session expired’ and I need to log in again. That’s not the worst part. The login page is so poorly built it redirects to a webpage (within the app) instead of handling the login within the app interface. This has been a constant nuisance with trying to save search results and retrieving favorites. It’s been going almost forever, it’s high time you guys fixed it.

Looking for a room to rent, not an apartment. All it list is high priced apartments. I can use realtor app for that purpose.

It’s an easy app to use and it helps me to remind myself who I already contacted. I wonder though if you can add a place to write notes to ourselves under the recent contactes lists so we can remind ourselves what apartments offer programs or not. That would be awesome 😎

Nobody ever calls or emails me back. Waste of time.

Must be updated the pics are so old Not accurate.. 🤷🏻‍♀️ At least in the area where I was searching

This app is the best you can find when searching for an apartment.

I am obsessed with this application/website. It’s a one stop, quick & easy way to most effectively see all apartments/homes in my desired location and get all the stats on them Ie pricing!!! I can get all the info on each property without leaving the app. I just love it.

Is a great website I was able to find my apartment a matter of days. It breaks it down by neighborhood how much you can afford and exactly what you need I just put in how much I want to spend the fact that I have a dog and whenever I want to live in and it came up with a list of available apartments I was able to find one within a week I recommended website To everybody!

I love this app so much. It’s incredibly helpful in my line of work and as a personal vice. HOWEVER, what the heck is up with all the error messages and lags? Sometimes the app won’t open and sometimes I have to delete it and re-download it.

Great

Very helpful app. Easy to use. I would like to see a function to mark/eliminate units the users do not like. That would make sense as you can mark units the user wants to save. Bottom line is to make the app more efficient and effective in a housing search. Also, please do not put units with no availability in search results. This is no help whatsoever.

The app is ok and works well but im tired of it logging me out of my sessions every 5 minuets!!!!!

Wow, love this app, it’s great. Helped me find my first apartment, but now I’m having trouble with the app. It seems to log me out every 30 minutes or so. Seems like everytime I favorite a listing I have to log back in. Also, my favorites aren’t showing up with heart icons. They’re just regular icons like all the other listings.

Personally, this my favorite apartment finding app, but I need to be updated to support the new iPad Pro screen.

Everything is not hard to work with

I try to sign in to the app so I can save apartments but it never lets me. After I sign in the app says that my session has expired

The favoriting system is bugged to not show up as hearts as you are searching for apartments. This means there is a ton of revisiting apartments that are already favorited. It appears to disappear once you move the view around or zoom in/out. Also, some apartments say they have 3D walkthroughs in the icon on their thumbnail, but the list of available walkthroughs is empty. The app is amazing, fix these annoying bugs!

Love the commute feature !!

No apartments were loading no matter what I would search. Didn’t have any of my favorites saved.

My biggest issue is that the App keeps Signing You Out .. Like almost every visit it’s so inconvenient.. wish you could also delete contacted rentals when it’s time to do an apartment search again it’s confusing.

Nice app

Awesome place great atmosphere

Brokers are posting the same listings literally 15 times, get rid of them

Good app. But...... my saved searches for a specific town have the other area towns or cities included. If I wanted to see those “other” listings I’d include them in my search.

Very easy to use and navigate as previous reviews are noted. I like that you can sort by the amenities that are important to you in an area that you were interested in. However, that being said, my only negative comment is the fact that even though I have indicated I am only interested in one bedroom apartment with a washer and dryer I am getting listings that are also showing two bedrooms and no washer dryer‘s.

This app really helps me pick out the perfect apartment. I am able to choose the area, and price range.

I like the ease of searching on an app and not just being tied to my computer when looking at properties BUT I do not understand why my account doesn’t seem to update my searches or favorite that are created between the app and my laptop. I have contacted several properties on my computer that don’t show as contacted on the app, and saved several favorite on the app that I can’t then pull up on my laptop. This is very frustrating in trying to maintain continuity as I search for a new home 1,100 miles away from my current location. The convenience of the app is negated when I have to have both my phone and my laptop handy to keep track of what properties I’ve looked at and liked.

I love this app, it helps me to scour the area for apartments. The only issue I have right now is that it keeps signing me out saying that my “session has expired” and I keep having to resign in. That’s the only issue I have, please fix. Thanks!

This app is really awesome!! Could just need a refresh on some apartments listing

The best apartment app in Apple store!!!

I use the app every time when I move ... is very helpful

The filter on this app is very useful and I honestly love it it helps a lot :3

This is an EXCELLENT application for someone who is looking for apartments above the $800 dollar range because the choices are endless. They give GREAT listings of apartments and their amenities, etc. However, anything under $800, the choices are very limited. Also, I hate that I can only search through using the map. I am not a big map reader so I would prefer being able to search by city, state, zip code, apartment complex, etc. It is not a very user friendly application. I have to use Google to search for a listing and see if I can find it in this app. Usually I can find it but less often than not. I am thinking of deleting this application because it really does not serve the purpose that I am looking for. Maybe if the changes are mentioned are implemented, that might make me stay..... Thank you!

i like all the features, seems to have a lot of filtering choices that other apartment-searching apps don’t have, BUT there is a big bug in the app: when you go to type in the address from where you will be commuting from, no matter what address you are typing in, the app just says “No results found” and can’t locate it, making this feature unusable.

Just what I’m looking for

Like this app quite a bit. What’s unique is that it has listings here that some of the other sites don’t have.

Best app on the market

I love this app it makes searching for apartment so easy and organized and it gives you how your future apartment will be look like I recommend to download it

I couldn't find your feedback section so writing a bug report here: the app keeps signing me off many times saying that my session has expired, thats pretty annoying as it happens every 10-15 minutes or so, hope you fix this bug.

Very helpful and so many options to find the apartment you want
