★★★★ Timothy Santos 5/6/2026 v501.6.6
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
★★★★ Myles Primm 5/5/2026 v501.6.6
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
★★★★ Luno Sol 5/3/2026 v501.6.6
app is so slow
★★★★ Adriel O'Dell 5/3/2026 v501.6.6
Force close and signing you out... For literal years.
★★★★ Ryan 5/3/2026 v501.6.6
Everyday I log in the next day it logs me out
★★★★ Justin Scharf 5/1/2026
Difficult to navigate, sluggish to respond. Gives error message when trying to purchase but purchase goes through anyway.
★★★★ B C 4/30/2026 v501.6.5
Don't ever order from Gamestop, on top of this app feeling like it was vibe coded, they just sent me the entirely wrong product, and gave me the runaround on the return.
★★★★ Ronald Sohan II 4/30/2026 v501.6.5

★★★★ Sixto Roman 4/30/2026 v501.6.5
won't let me sign in and have to use the website
★★★★ Jeremy Mitchell 4/30/2026 v501.6.5
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.
★★★★ Willie Lee 4/30/2026 v501.6.5
Can't login
★★★★ Hunter Mason 4/30/2026 v501.6.5
GARBAGE. Can't login at all, changed password multiple times, completely useless.
★★★★ Dan M 4/29/2026 v501.6.5
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!
★★★★ Jared Best 4/29/2026 v501.6.5
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.
★★★★ Jessica Toney 4/28/2026 v501.6.5
trash
★★★★ Gabe G (blueshoals) 4/27/2026 v501.6.5
recent updates have caused this app to become a huge pain to use.
★★★★ Bryan Manuel Hernandez 4/25/2026 v501.6.5
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.
★★★★ ThunderHog 4/25/2026 v501.6.5
literally doesn't work
★★★★ Calin Cociuba 4/24/2026 v501.6.4
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
★★★★ Brandon Taylor 4/24/2026 v501.6.4
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
★★★★ Joshua Oakley 4/19/2026 v501.6.4
can't log in at all on the app even though I can just fine on my browser
★★★★ RetroArcadeFan 4/17/2026 v501.6.4
Awful
★★★★ Josh Shepard 4/17/2026 v501.6.4
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
★★★★ Odin 4/16/2026 v501.6.4
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.
★★★★ Richard Wood 4/15/2026 v501.6.4

★★★★ RadicalZ3116 4/11/2026 v501.6.4
Gamescalp. WAY to overpriced on EVERYTHING.
★★★★ Knuckle Master 4/10/2026 v501.3.1
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.
★★★★ Jared Tyler 4/9/2026 v501.6.4

★★★★ Tobias Turner 4/7/2026 v501.6.4
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
★★★★ Corey Gallup 4/4/2026 v501.6.4
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.
★★★★ Vanwolfster 4/3/2026 v501.2.2
Total trash a majority of the time
★★★★ Alfredo Calderon 4/3/2026 v501.6.4
keeps giving me update message when already update. I even reinstalled still same
★★★★ Robyn Wolph 4/2/2026 v501.6.4
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
★★★★ X SKULL 4/2/2026

★★★★ the gaming dicks 3/30/2026 v501.6.4

★★★★ Jeremy Murray 3/23/2026 v501.6.4
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
★★★★ Bunnie Leigh 3/21/2026 v501.6.4
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.
