Review Summary
Many users like the Zillow Apartments & Rentals app for its search filters, map view, and saved searches, but it faces significant criticism for issues such as slow loading times, limited functionality, frequent glitches, unresponsive customer service, and inaccurate or outdated listings.
Although I haven't had much success in finding some place affordable for me to rent it isn't because of the app. This app is intuitive and even has a dark mode that saves my eyes. Saves multiple searches with filters of your choice. The only drawback is that some of the property managers don't utilize the features it seems. Most don't take the time to use the app to it's potential. And that problem is the same in most apartment rental apps. If you're a property manager, take the time, dangit!
App keeps defaulting to rentals that do not allow pets. I have my filters set to show only rentals that do allow pets. This has led to multiple disappointing moments where we think we've found a possible rental, but it's not the case. Another issue is that some rentals will stop appearing on the app. You can still find them on the website, but not in the app. Uninstalling.

While zillow gives you access to hundreds of properties the app is really inefficient in helping to find properties that fit your specific needs, so it's often overwhelming to use the app. There are no block or remove options for properties you are NOT interested in, which would be VERY HELPFUL. Also there is no way to access messages in the app, so ultimately you have to use the website. At best, the app is moderately functional, but for best results, go to the website.
A comprehensive and easy to use app however the lag and glitches are awful. I find a listing, click it images don't show up - just a loading circle, constantly spinning. Also, I have my push notifications on so I get some updates but when in tap to open to see the recommended listing, blank white screen. Otherwise, this would be a super helpful resource. Ah wait one more complaint! I can't heart 🤍 /save listening! I tap the heart outline, nothing happens.
You went from the best and most effective apartments and homes finder app to the absolute dumbest. And I weigh my words. Two apps to download instead of one. Plus so demanding it is ridiculous. Others started doing what you were doing that made you my favorite app in the past. Now, also, with the covid, all the more reason for having the pictures to aide with decision making but you go the opposite route. I am therfore deleting your app. Not usefull to me, and a waist of my time.
If you like slow loading times, even on an internet connection, that zips along with every other app. If you're looking for an app that you have a hard time signing into. And if you're looking for an app that seems to ignore the filters that you input. look no further. You have found it. I do also love how many places aren't available that are listed.
I love Zillow! You can view the map and see the actual locations of places to rent. Finding a place to call home is so much easier with the filters, location, and favorites folder. All the important information landlord's want to know is already ready to go to make contacting properties so much easier than doing it over and over again for each property. I've tried allot of other apps like this but this one is my favorite!
At first worked great, able to find what i need. However all of a sudden from around a week ago, the app doesnt load any info about listings. It would show all the searches on the map according to my filter but when i press one for more detail, just shows pictures and the rest of the posting is blank. Makes the app literally not usable. Whats even more annoying is that when i try to use zillow on mobile via chrome, it constantly tries to load the info on the app instead of chrome. Plz fix
I have to say, I'm pretty disappointed with the vetting process for rental listings on this app. I see duplexes listed as apartments or houses instead of townhouses constantly. I also see listings with no interior photos! Red flag. Part of the problem is there is just so little in the affordable range anymore that these misrepresented listings stand out. Forget about filtering by any of the checkbox filters provided because property managers simply don't utilize them.
The price filter slider will not let me set the number I want to set. You can drag the slider bar to 3300 and you move it a little bit ahead and it will make it 4200. You cannot set it to anything between these 2 numbers. Better would be to simply give a text box to enter the number manually instead of giving a slider. Uninstalling the app now.
