  • Huge disappointment

    I cant believe after 15 years of using couch surfing since its original creation, im now met with a pay wall, because i can even view or access my account. Are you kidding?!? 15 years using this site and its never once blocked me from at the very least viewing my profile. Sure, verified accounts can cost money but forcing me to pay to even view my account and my my profile, to remove my saved pictures, to remove my data!?! Pathetic! I cannot believe it. The company that “verifies” I dont trust with my data. And the number of times couch surfing says “ verify verify verify” tells me the verification isnt for us, the users. Its for CS and the $$$ they make for that verification company selling our data. Cs doesnt care about verification for safety. Its all money. Reading the agreement for the verification company….they own everything about you!!! Im going make sure that no one else uses this site or app. This was the worst decision you could have ever made. “Covid made us do it because we lost money” well guess what, you just lost a lot more. Absolutely pathetic.

    As others have noted, the app redesign accelerated what was already a dying community. Hangouts are impossible, hosts are inactive, and couchsurfing just keeps adding paywalls. Launches are botched- even the appeal to come back was not rolled out well. I think in 12 months it will be shuttered.
  • Notifications

    Hey CS team - I’m a long term support of the product. The recent updates are sending the Hangouts Nearby notifications like every 2 hours. It’s a lot and will lead to a decrease in people with active notifs

    The new ui is very much immature, the pictures are always zoomed in and the whole ux is just weird. Please fix: photos rendering issues (no body takes pictures in that aspect ratio), notifications being available on newsfeed only, after leaving hangouts the hangouts message stays in notifications (activity), feed is not related to my area

    The app barely works anymore. It’s slow, buggy, and feels completely abandoned. Such a great concept, but the current experience is very disappointing.
  • Bad updates

    Since the new look and the updates, the app sucks more what it used to be: instead of fix the problems they just changed the look. 1- location never been accurate. 2-why you send me notifications about all my friends travel and trips which confuses me, and don’t let me me see the important notifications. 3- it is hard to get access to messages and read them. 4- for the hangout it shows people very far away. 5-the look is not very good and hard to read and navigate.
  • GenZ sucks

    I recently hosted 2 GenZ people - separate instances - and they were both super entitled. Didn’t clean up after themselves, complained about my early wake-up time, complained about me having only one set of keys so their schedule was tied to mine, and the list goes on. All of these expectations were made clear to them ahead of time and they agreed to abide by house rules. Moreover, one of them wrote me a negative review with demonstrably false information about the agreed dates of stay, and CS has done nothing to take that review down. F GenZ, f CS. F doing good deeds. I’m listing my home on AirBnB.

    They’ve absolutely killed the whole application after upgrade. It is a nightmare what you did with the application after upgrading it.
  • Worst app update I ever saw

    This app should be updated back to the old design. I met lot of users who only were complaning about the new app! Please, make it back as it was before!

    I rarely leave reviews but the interface on this app is soooo bad. Can’t delete messages (can only archive), can’t delete notifications. Keeps telling me I have notifications when I don’t. I hope they fix.
