Claim it! - Sell. Win it. Fun. 4+

I found Claim It! right near my work in NYC right about the time of its launch and I was obsessed. I would check in every day and see where it was and what was being offered for the week. There used to be Keurig machines, MTA cards, hats, sneakers, gift cards, food, etc. and I even clicked on the ads to make purchases-it worked. When it went away for a while, I figured it would come back bigger and better than ever. It did not come back better than ever, it came back, but as something that I can find on twenty other apps in the App Store as well as online right now. What made it special was gone and so was I. I downloaded it again today in hopes that I would see it from a different light but to no avail.

Hi Gillian,

We want you to only have good times with the app, there is a sneaker giveaway that starts tomorrow and occurs every Tuesday. Click on the Truck icon on the app homepage to find out where to enter the raffle. If you have any other issues you can email us at support@claimitapp.com.

Thank you for your support.

The app design is bad. I don’t know where one post begins and the other ends. And it’s in-person transactions, which would be good, if I could haul this stuff around if bigger. Ultimately, it just confusing. Sellers aren’t even required to enter descriptions. Like, if I’m buying a TV stand, how much space does it take up? Not to mention, I got used to seeing no description so often that I tapped on the field to see what happens, and text popped up, so some descriptions don’t even show up, but the descriptions I saw were mostly the product names, so not good at all. I’d even say they weren’t as good as not having a description at all, despite at least saying what the product was, in most cases. It just wasn’t even a subpar experience.

Update: I deleted this a few years back because this app was so terrible. Just re downloaded to check it out and probably going to go ahead and delete again. The platform changed and there are plenty of other apps that do it better.

I love free stuff! Already picked up some free awesome lipgloss and picking up some free sexy pop popcorn. See a truck get some free stuff or try for a bigger prize. No tricks.

However, the app itself is TERRIBLE!
New version logged me out and I had to re-register. Now it doesn't tell me that I've managed to claim it after the video add. After watching the video 3 times I can only hope I managed an entry. 90% of the time the app crashes on launch - not an exaggeration. Even when the app loads finding a truck doesn't load, just hangs whether a truck is available or not. People in the truck are great, but it's a chore to try to get the app to even launch to claim anything. They need some better developers. They have a cool gimmick, but are failing with poor follow through.
