  • Horrible update

    This new update is completely horrible. I can barely understand anything. A very complicated user interface.

    This app used to be flawed but it was still useful- now I’m just waiting in hopes they will fix all the problems with the major update
  • Not safe, not user-friendly, and no longer feels like Couchsurfing

    I used to value Couchsurfing for its real community and human connection, but the app has changed drastically without proper warning or user consent after charging people for what felt like a completely different, more user-friendly platform. The new app is frustrating to use. Every time I open it, I have to verify my email, receive a PIN, and go through extra steps just to sign in. It does not seem capable of saving my login or keeping me signed in like a normal app should. The design is also completely different from the old platform, and users were not prepared for the change. The events section has also become diluted with impersonal Couchsurfing-sponsored events that no one seems to attend, making it much harder to find real, local, human gatherings anymore. Customer service has not been helpful. When I reached out with concerns, they offered no real solutions. Most importantly, I have serious safety concerns. I have been harassed multiple times through this platform, reported users, and still saw those same users continue to operate normally, show up to events, and harass others. That is unacceptable for an app built around meeting strangers. At this point, I would not recommend Couchsurfing. It no longer feels safe, community-centered, or user-friendly.

    The most frustrating: pay-subscription-&-pray-some-God-to-help-you-out!! EVERY YEAR IS THE SAME INEFICIENTCY!! Now the said they have a new face… maybe different look, but paying subscription & getting “assistance” FOR THE THIRD TIME is an epic drama to solve. The even mail me saying something like “if you can’t communicate in a couple of hours, we can’t help you… so I have to dedicate my life to them!! Horrible, terrible, unprofessional!!

    Everything looks so confusing after the recent new update. Too many excessive and irrelevant information flooding in. Literally ruining the whole experience. The old version is way better, please switch back or I won’t subscribe next year.

    I am a user since 2014. This new update of couchsurfing is horrible. They ruined a great community. So sad that they’d do this to an amazing community.

    New app blows hard
  • Garbage Update switch to Couchers

    This is the final straw. This company has been going downhill ever since it turned private but this last update is horrendous. From security risks to actually being able to host or find a host. Good luck but I recommend everyone moving on to Couchers, this is absolute unusable garbage.

    This new version of Couchsurfing is the worst thing they could ever do. I don't understand how trying to make things better makes them worse. I haven't even been able to sign in because the new process is so confusing and annoying. I hope they change it soon.
  • Useless app!

    The reboot of this app has basically made the entire project useless. Such a loss for so many people…
