app is trash never let's me actually log onto it. been like that for a year whats the point of an app if it won't even open
They made it harder to calculate trade in values on the app. It also never remembers my login so I have to do it every time I open the app....when it actually opens
app is so slow
Force close and signing you out... For literal years.
Everyday I log in the next day it logs me out
Difficult to navigate, sluggish to respond. Gives error message when trying to purchase but purchase goes through anyway.

won't let me sign in and have to use the website
Can't access my $10 credit until they fix this app. The website simply won't load anything related to my credit/offers and the app just gives me an error every time I try to login to my account.
Can't login
GARBAGE. Can't login at all, changed password multiple times, completely useless.
App has had constant issues for years - Doesn't work with VPN on, always needs updates, and UI is unresponsive often. prices may differ at checkout than while shopping. certain items are limited to 1 per person... even a controller joystick, which I need 2 of. WHY LIMIT JOYSTICK MODULE PURCHASES??? it's not like people are scalping duelsense edge joysticks... jeez guys, get it together!
I keep getting a notification that reads: "Unusual Activity Blocked. This happens when we detect the use of a VPN, proxy, or unusual network activity. Contact our support team if you believe this is an error." I'm not using a VPN. I'm using my phone's mobile data I always use in my home city. The app is now just useless garbage (instead of the mildly useful garbage that it was). Just use the browser.
trash
recent updates have caused this app to become a huge pain to use.
Can't redeem points since it times out of the screen asking for the security code every time I leave the app. Trash app for a trash company.
literally doesn't work
I tried to log on, but I forgot my password went through the process to get a new password.... I never got the email with the link. I tried numerous times. PS I checked the spam folder also. I get notifications about new products, promotions, and stuff, BUT not the link to renew my password. pfffft
constant issues. crashes when trying to make a purchase. waiting DAYS for digital download codes. the last few updates added nothing to the app except these crazy bugs
can't log in at all on the app even though I can just fine on my browser
Awful
by far the worst app you can ever use it constantly crashes constantly kicks you out constantly says that you are not who you say you are why not let you change your payment options. just overall I can see why GameStop is going out of business
good luck trying to checkout I tried buying one thing for 30 minutes and it kept glitching out It's like they don't want your money, horrible company.
app never seems to be able to log me in. browsers work on same devices.
Gamescalp. WAY to overpriced on EVERYTHING.
Gamestop is terrible for trade-in value and then over price everything. They don't restock their items much. The app is a pain to use.
app doesn't work and the website is down it hasn't worked for months!
Isnt showing any of my Pro points, monthly coupons or welcome bonus. Wanted to buy some games. What a waste of money!!!
y tf the shipping so much bro, it isn't like I'm getting it shipped from the middle of China
you guys sold me cod mw 2019 for my xbox one and it wouldn't work and acted like i didn't own the game. not to mention I can sell you a brand new console and you'll give me like 20 bucks
One of the most frustrating apps I've ever used. The app forces me to the app store just to open it. tried redeeming points for 5$ online coupon, and it took my points but won't show the coupon to be used anywhere. Highly reccomend not using this garbage app.
Total trash a majority of the time
keeps giving me update message when already update. I even reinstalled still same
Accuses me of having a VPN which I don't have and the option to use GameStop gift cards is suddenly gone. I tried using gift cards to preorder an upcoming game, only for the gift card option to not show up when it did so previously. Wish I could give it 0/5
app needs maintince it kick me out like three times. whats the point of paying for a member ship if you cant use it online
terrible company. terrible app.
logged out and when I try to log back in it will not let me. I logged in thru the website with same info.
not able to log in to my account tried absolutely everything still continues to not recognize the password tried resetting then verifying and nothing worked
been trying to sign up cause I have the pro membership, and it won't send me the email to sign up. I tried many times across multiple days, and it hasn't sent me anything.
ordered a 360 game, shipped from Springfield Mo the town next to me, took them 4 days to get it to the USPS and the day before its supposed to be delivered it's across the country
app doesn't work, every sign in attempt fails
I couldn't even put my first name and create a account because my password was taken even though it wasn't this is stupid
Constantly crashes, never shows me my trades.
what happened to this app it used to function back in the days ..ive had the account for years now it won't even recognize my account anymore,,,terrible! whatever they did has totally failed this app.Shame ..If only there was a way to rate 0 stars s then I would!
barely works as needed and constantly says to update when I've done it 4 plus times
infinite loading error at checkout, cant checkout any item no matter how many times i reload or try. :/
poor app, also even worse on the company to charge scalper prices on cards. I've been a pro member for years but that changes this year.
worst app ever
GameStop The New Scalpers. What the....... I mean seriously. You can get Pokemon at other places for the suggested retail value but not at GameStop.
