Great app. Ive found lots of listings so easily! I just dont care for how deceptive the sellers are, using the wide-angle camera lens when displaying their properties. Then, when you go to see the actual property, the "master bedroom" is the size of a closet and you can't turn around in the kitchen lol!! I've seen too many of these, but it's not Zillow's fault. Maybe Zillow could implement a policy which prohibits a seller from practicing this form of LYING on their wonderful listing site.

I'll be fair and say that I don't know if this is an "app issue" or just me being signed up with them, but I'm getting bombarded with emails daily. I've tried to unsubscribe through their emails and turned off the notifications on the app but alas, more emails. I'm not trying to slam anyone, just explaining what I've been expecting. Aside from that, the app is really nice. Lots of options and easy to use. Good information about the houses too. *UPDATE: They fixed my issue within mins of posting.

A lot of bugs. Basically forced to use the app with online searches. Once the app link is clicked, only a minority of the time does the app open appropriately. I typically get a white screen as others have described. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app with the same result. I just really wish when choosing a Zillow link online, you aren't forced to use this unreliable app.

One thing I love about this is the simple ability to zoom in on the photos. The mobile site is easier to navigate though, and the app has a MAJOR downfall when it comes to searching for houses. If you're using map view and you zoom in / out, or scroll the map over to a different neighborhood, the app tries to follow you and keeps displaying the next closest house, marking it as "Seen" / light red when you've never looked at it. It should only do that if clicked on. Back to the website for me...

For the past few months now, the app simply does not work when you apply any filters to your search... it just comes back with "request error" and shows nothing, asking to reset all filters even when there are several homes in the map area that fit the filters. Very infrequently, it will actually work but as soon as you move the map in a way it doesn't like, back to "request error". And even if you reset the filters, it does the same "request error" until you clear the cache.

I can't even log in anymore. I attempted to open a ticket through the app and it's saying I have no internet connection, which I do. It was working fine until a few weeks back. I'm assuming an update broke something because the app is completely useless now. I can't open up any listings. Any notifications will not load once clicked. Please fix whatever you broke.

Most houses the app tells me about are "coming soon" or don't have any interior pictures of the house. I don't want to wait for these to be forthcoming and the entire thing is probably just a ploy to put it out there ahead of time to drop the price when it opens for bids so you think you're getting a value. The app is advertised to give power to buyers, but sellers still have it all. If you say there's a bed, a bath and a basement, there better be at least a pic of each before it posts, period.

While the map features and such are great, it is quite annoying when you want your alerts on to catch new stuff coming available but you keep getting alerts to houses that don't even come close to matching the search filters you have set. For example, I have a filter set to property with no less than 5 acres, but I keep getting alerts for houses in town with less than a half acre lot.

There needs to be more filters. When you search for a condo in Florida, you have to read all descriptions first to find out if it's 55+. It's the worst! Also the worst is that there is no filter for pets. Again, you have to read all the bs before considering price and looks. Personally I like to look at price and then pictures before reading the description. I can't be the only one. Also lacking filters like patio/balcony, washer/dryer in unit. This app really wastes a lot of time!

For the past several years, Zillow was my Go To real estate search app; it used to be easy to use, quick and accurate, and I recommended it to all my friends. Over the past year or so it has deteriorated to the point where now it won't even re filter or re sort at all. It randomly lists only some properties in my search area, and prioritizes new construction listings even when I deselect them. Hope they 'sort' out their bugs soon. I miss their reliability.
