The best app I’ve ever used to search for a vehicle!!!!

So simple, so easy to use and best of all, is that almost all the listings I’ve been looking at, have the Carfax that you can easily click and check to see about the history of the vehicle. It’s soooooo helpful to be able to look at instead of having to wait until you actually get to the dealership!!!! It is so freakin nice and convenient and it really really helps to save time while looking at all the options for cars. It can really get overwhelming and frustrating having to ‘hope’ that the Carfax for the vehicle you’d looking at has a great history!

So to the app makers many many thank you’s!!! Words can’t express how much I appreciate it. I don’t have a car now and don’t have any friends to be able to take me around all day to look for a car. And so this app is so wonderful to help to eliminate so much anxiety!! I really really appreciate you guys putting the Carfax history and for making the app so easy to navigate! I sincerely applaud your efforts and common sense for making such an easy to use app!!!
Wish more were like yours!!!
All the best and peace be with you ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🤝🤝🤝👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻💜💜💜💜😎😎😎😎🙂🙂🙂

TMI

When it works, it's great! Too bad it only works about 10% of the time. Crashes more often and works more slowly than any other app I have ever tried. Maybe the volume of information they provide is just too much for my little phone to handle.
UPDATE: Not sure whether it was an upgrade to the software, or the fact that I got a new phone, but for the past several months (other than having the app freeze when you first open it, presumably while it is connecting to the remote servers) there has been no instability or any other issues. So, to quote myself, "When it works, it's great!"
UPDATE 2: Really wish they would re-develop the app for iPad. Nice that the old version still functions. It’s just kind of odd to view because the iPad version looks as though you have set your phone on top of your iPad screen.

Developer Response ,

Hi Nobellnate, thank you for taking the time to review the Cars.com App. We appreciate all the feedback. Here are a few things you can do to make sure your app is working at it's peak. If you don't have the most recent update, check your app store to update. If you still notice any glitchiness, try deleting the app and adding it back in. This fixes any type of issues related to cache. Let us know if this was helpful. Also, we understand the frustration for the iPad, but at this time we have no upcoming updates, but we will keep you and all our great iPad users in the know soon as we do. Thank you and have a great rest of your day!

Making car buying even more of a headache

If they would simply put the necessary fixes into the app, this would be invaluable. But pictures never load, and the sorting of info is terrible. It must be the method the sellers input info that doesn’t get detected when you filter. If you choose you want a sunroof, well it will narrow down 500 vehicles to 10. But if you don’t filter that way, there are waaaay more vehicles that actually have a sunroof than it showed through the filter. So you’re forced to manually search through hundreds of vehicles, and pray to God a picture will load showing whether it has the features you’re looking for or not. There is also a tooooon of shady business practices done by dealers here. They consistently mis label vehicles, say they have features they don’t, and out ridiculously low prices ($1000 on a brand new vehicle) just to get them to show up in every search. It’s clear this company is just collecting money from the sellers, and pocketing it. The app has been this way for years, it’s nothing new. Autotrader has its own issues, but it does at least work the way you’d expect it to.
