new keyword search is Ducking awful! seriously - why can I not use my keywords, just the ones that closely match what you want. whatever PM signed off on this wants sacking. It's a beta function (in every sense of the word) that is not wanted.
telling me that I have no internet connection what a rubbish app i have full 5g
I have internet but it says I don't so I can't use it, great.
unable to switch between map list or houses. this use to be available but has disappeared on android app version. very poor.
privacy invasive
won't load , been like this for a few weeks, have been using it with no issues for years
app not working. please fix that.
won't open anymore

I don't mind people knowing my Google account name or seeing my photo, I don't usually use my Gmail account though for sending emails of this nature and would have liked to have had the choice
Whether I select a radius of 1 mile or 40 miles, it still only shows a 1 mile radius. The app is so outdated. There's hardly any filters for filtering garden size, amount of parking spaces or garages, city or rural properties. It's still easier to go to physical estate agents to find what I'm looking for.
can't filter by keywords now
Why can I only save a search if Student Accommodation is ticked? I am neither a student nor wanting to live with them. Still no holiday home option, which is disappointing as I raised this back in 2021.
Downloaded app as been using browser version up to now. My drawn areas are not in the app and no way of recreating them? I see no point in downloading the app if it doesn't retain the features of the browser version. Going to uninstall and continue with the browser version. Sort it out rightmove!
Can't save searches with Don't show student accommodation enabled. Not sure why that's the case, I'm not a student so I don't want to be looking at their accommodation.
no filters for land size and no ability to search the entire country
not showing my favourites
just programmed empty heads. I'm looking in Spain and they just kept giving high price I tro screens of England
when I filter the price range it shows the house only at the higher limit. can you sort this out immediately please ? note: this is happening in android mobile
no map options anymore so I'm struggling to find the property I actually want to view
a pain in the neck, the draw tool is finicky, can't base it on travel time and there's no way to remove search results so you'll be perpetually wasting time on results you didn't want to see. yes you can memorise every location on the map but It still wastes loading time when you misclick on one of the worthless properties. saving areas requires a work around, forcing you to logg onto the website, save the area and then save it as a search because of course the app doesn't work...
Not supported in SA
OK for what it is, however, agencies don't seem to be bought into the app. There are a lot of out of date properties which aren't available. Agents often ask users to repeat the information they send via the app. The app leaves managing the state on enquiries down to the user. There is literally 0 integration with the process after locating the initial property.
Bug stopping me opening the app please fix this, thank you
There used to be the option to search using custom keywords. That's now been removed, and you can only choose keywords that match with Rightmove's own AI keywords. It feels like AI has been crammed into an app that didn't need it, and managed to make it less useful.
great app but shows me houses I can't afford
if I delete property from my saved lists when I go back in them there have not been deleted.
App is usable at best. Website is much better.
Mostly just the same as the website, but is lacking the "property sale history" section, which is something I find incredibly useful, and is (almost) the only reason I'm tracking most properties on Rightmove. I'm just going to use the website instead
