can't see any specials because ad cannot be removed unless I shut the app
I am fed up with the Temu adds that can't be deleted in any way. I used to use the app all the time but the stress is not worth it. If there is a solution for this annoyance please do it.

too many ads
Ad popups lock entire app. Useless.
doesn't show Coles products. information is not correct.
Used to be wonderful, however now unusable due to the ads.
absolutely awful , unable to use unless having to sit thru multiple ads
Can't even browse for 30s without a pop up ad
get rid of the pop up adds. I can't close them when done and I have to shut the app and reopen and then adds pop up again going through the same cycle. yes I have updated and yes shut down and re downloaded.
Stupidly impressive. I understand the need for ads. However, this app has them randomly open up with full loud sound. Did any of the developers stop to think that if someone is using a shopping app, they might be in a...shop? You know where actually using the app might be embarrassing? Why would you want to use an app that's going to embarrass you?
Old day worth 4 star, but new install now with extreme annoying temu advertising, not only waste time, also make shopping become extreme horrible behaviour.
I have stopped using this app. It just locks you into ads, with no access to the shopping info.
incompatible on samsung s24 ultra, any idea when?
After using for 3 years and loving it, I had to delete it eventually as out of no where this App needed access to my private data(phones, contacts, logins) and I wasnt given an option to decline and only give my consent so I can use the App. Guess what! I've a better option, I'm better off uninstalling the App and never use it again.
A lot of the time, things that are half price in the app at Coles are not half price on the shelf. This has happened to me many times causing me anguish as the staff won't honour the half price discount. They keep making all soorts of excuses saying the app has got it wrong, not the store.
Intrusive ads
After June 24 Update : I have used this app for a long time and loved it for my household of 8. But since the update there is no "share" tab anymore. Not ideal to go to the supermarket without a list !! To use the app in the supermarket is difficult as items are random in it. At least when you could share it to a list it was alphabetical. Change it back or add it again please.
As soon as you start to scroll down this app, it opens an advertisement, which you cannot close without restarting. This is totally unnecessary and inconvenient. Is it even legal? Specials on this app are frequently not available at Coles or Woolworths. I am uninstalling this app.
so many ads this thing basically is unusable
prices are marked up then cut
useless. the ads are insanely intrusive, to the point that you can't access the app
The past couple of weeks have had ads pop up within seconds of opening that I cannot close. I press skip ad but no matter how many much times I click close ad it won't close- used to be an amazing app now it's unusable for longer than 4-5 seconds π Dev please fix
Some half price products on Coles and Woolworths are missing now and then.
Please do not download this app..you cannot get out..they automatically withdraw funds from your Google account and it's impossible to have it removed!!!.
Woke up this morning to check our the new specials, being a Wednesday and the app was empty, blank. I uninstalled then reinstalled still the same thing.
I used to love this app even with the adds I didn't mind watching an add but now the adds dont close and I can't actually use the app, I've updated it and deleted it and re downloaded it but nothing works so I just dont bother anymore.
the Temu advertisements are so bad, they fly full screen and waste a lot of time
Used to be a great app. Now plagued with annoying ads. Unusable. uninstalling
Very long ads, it was ok at 5 secs. Now I just go on the Coles or woolies app and see specials there
It was good until the price was incorrectly updated :(
Won't rotate screen? Useful... IF profucts were listed side by side.
Minimal items to track
Some weeks the app is completely blank. Other weeks things are not 1/2 price when you get to the store
was 5 stars for 5 years plus until the noisy high audio volume adverts at launch. it's fine to monetise but high audio volume @ launch??? old comment : thank you thank you thank you
