App leaves a lot to be desired. The messaging functionality is awful and removes spacing. You end up with long endless paragraphs. It freezes and often signs me out randomly. Requesting background check button bills credit card immediately with no confirmation so be careful where you click.

The app is clunky. Took forever to load main screen then did forgot password and it takes me to the website not the app but doesn't let me reset password so the one time login doesn't work because it reverts back to the website and not the app when I say to look at the recommendation of housekeepers. Then it shows to login again.

It helps you find nannies and babysitters but the app itself is terrible. It is glitchy and slow. The nanny taxes banner-ad at the top is terrible and I keep accidently tapping it when trying to scroll or open the menu. The main page is for new job postings only. It should have open job postings and messages. And when you are viewing applicants, you should be able to open their messages instead of starting a new message thread. I don't like it.
