Used to be good, now get constant nagging and have to skip so much just to use it

phillipisthebest1234 on

Canada

This app used to be so simple, straight forward and not intrusive. Nowadays, I get frequent notifications that I don't need, and what's worse every time I open the app after a while I now need to skip through multiple pages or steps just to get the three words. I recently had to use the app in an emergency situation and it was incredibly frustrating just to get the words and it unnecessarily delayed the process.

The app is a great idea!!

Livin_in_ontario_canada_eh on

I noticed that it only mentions UK in the description and other places a lot. I think the app should be made more useable for people who live in other places ie Canada for one, USA for 2 etc etc etc…I live in Ontario, Canada & would like to see this app more geared towards being user friendly for here where I live. Thank you

Not well explained

Confused65 on

Just downloaded this and it seems like a good idea but how it works is not well explained. Maybe too many programmers and not enough input from common sense.

It works!

Easy to install. It does tell you exactly where you are!

This is amazing

Great but could use widget dark mode

nilblank on

Canada

I love the technology and want to see it grow and develop into a universal standard. It might help if a little more attention was made to the UX. Allow dark mode for the widgets so that it can be integrated more aesthetically on the users app pages. Add features that make it more fun to play with the tech, maybe gamefy a part of it. Onwards and upwards for What3Words!

Funny names for places!

Canada

This app is so fun! Like with the Book Master of All Masters, this app creates hilarious names for every place on Earth! As a visual thinker, I think of these as funny images and characters.

Think these three words before sharing any social connections with the app as they will push you hard. stop trying to make it happen *outside of M25* Gretchen — it’s not going to happen
