It ALWAYS needs to be updated before you open it even if you've just uodated it and close the app then that day go to it it needs to update! FRUSTRATING! I've never had any app like it if it doesn't improve soon I'm uninstalling. It's just not worth it.

Its locally friendly

Still looking at the device at the moment

Privacy settings need to be upgraded so people can be safe. Street name should have an option to be private. Has the potential to be abused. On another note it sucks up battery life so with both of those issues I'll choose my privacy and battery life.

Hi Sharon, just like all good apps should, we regularly update our app to improve and enhance user experience. Thanks! Privacy settings need to be upgraded so people can be safe. Street name should have an option to be private. Has the potential to be abused. On another note it sucks up battery life so with both of those issues I'll choose my privacy and battery life.
Signed up online and now I download this and can't get into it. Even though I have signed up. Why can I just log in?
Can't change my neighbourhood, now that I've moved. Have contacted the Nabo 'help' people, but no reply.

Hello, the only current way to change your address is through our website go to https://www.nabo.com.au/account/profile and you'll be able to change your address. Thanks. This app is great for neighbour's to keep up with things in their own area from garage sales, for sale & meetings etc.
It is the best way to do what you want in you neighborhood. Selling. Buying, etc.
Got lots of bugs that need to be fixed. First is you cant set an avatar. Always fails. 2, the map is limited and a complete mess and crashes a lot. 3, needs landscape/tablet support.
Nabo xoxox Great idea for everybody to keep in touch especially those who have challenges leaving the house
Trunstworthy Therapeutic professional listening skills available by donation.
Very annoying, this app should be invisible when not in use Very annoying, this app should be invisible when not in use. It kept telling me that internet connection not available *every few seconds*, making it difficult to use phone's virtual keyboard with this *in your face* dialog message overshadowing the keyboard. Instant uninstall...
Great _ get on board Great idea.. Facebook like app but for your suburb and surrounds. Local community building system i think is much needed in Australia. Has a lot of promise. Real names and no trash talking trolls.

Thanks for the review Omego! Glad to hear you're enjoying Nabo :) Nabo Community Pty Ltd October 12, 2016
Hi Paul, our team is currently looking into the issue. Thanks. Privacy invasion Too many validations. Good idea but too invasive didn't feel welcome having to continually verify myself...uninstalled now
Why? Why does this app need to know my phone Id and phone details of person I'm calling? Uninstalling my app, nabo sounds good on paper but I've had 0% success giving away free eggs or kefir, and no response on unwanted crafty things

Hi Elke, the reason we ask to access that is so if you want to invite your friends to join Nabo you can do so through your contacts. Your details are secure when using our app and are never given out to advertisers or third parties. Thanks. Uninstalled No justification provided for new permission so assuming privacy violation and uninstalling.
Even more sticky beaking now? Before you try to get my passport number and all banking details,too, I'll make a run for it. Uninstalling now.

Hi Ian, the reason we ask to access that is so if you want to invite your friends to join Nabo you can do so through your contacts. Your details are secure when using our app and are never given out to advertisers or third parties. Thanks. A few bugs Want to add a my face photo profile (Im a hansome devil) but it will not let me...apart from that its seems ok...similar to facebook but LOCAL !
Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hey Peter try again now with our latest update. The pic will upload and your handsome face will be on display for all your neighbours to see! Cant add profile pic....workaround!! It seems ok except cant add a profile pic....couldnt find one that toned down my awesomeness enough when i signed up ;-)....edit just found you can via the website....prob with the Android app.
Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hey Rod. It's hard to tone down the awesomeness sometimes, glad to hear you managed to find a pic that did (which we're sure was a challenge!). We have recently updated the app and you'll find that you can upload pics and let that awesomeness shine through! Thanks :) Couldn't even sign up Before putting an add in Men's Health, perhaps make sure all the bugs are ironed out or your full page ad is a waste.

Hi Eliza, please be assured that we our development team is working continuously to address bugs and issues. Thanks. Nabo App Won't let me access my suburb feed. Throws up error message then goes blank.
Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hey Jane sorry that you were having this issue. Please know that we have since updated the app and you should now be able to access your suburb feed. Thanks! :) Absolute piece of crap! Had it for half an hour and it crashed twice. Won't update anything. I have literally NEVER had an app that has made me want to smash my phone this hard!
Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hi Renee hope your phone is still in tact! Please know that we have since updated the app and it is now loading and uploading :) Utterly useless Nothing works. Also requires too many accesses. I'd like an explanation of why each access is needed.
Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hi Steven we have since reduced the accesses that we require. You'll notice this with our latest update. Thanks! Horrible Local feed won't load and the app freezes. Totally useless
Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hi Kristine the app has now been updated and we have addressed the issues we were previously having. You will find the local feed will now load. Thanks! Asks for too many personal details while signing up. Only one reason you want to know my email and that is for spam.
Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hi Darryl the reason we ask for your details is so that when you connect with your neighbours on Nabo you know exactly who you’re talking to. You never have to worry about your privacy; personal information is not shared with advertisers or third parties, and you can tailor your profile settings to manage the level of visibility of your details. Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hi Ankur the app has now been updated and we have addressed the issues we were previously having. Thanks! Nah...seen it before on Facebook The last post in our area was like a month ago...no one is using it
Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hi Daz more and more people are using Nabo now. Perhaps check in and see if anyone has posted lately. You can always try and get the convo started and see who replies. Thanks! Nabo Community Pty Ltd July 7, 2016
Hey Oliver we've updated the app and you'll find now that everything is loading. Thanks! Won't let me sign up My full address is in, and it's still not letting me press Next. Have tried over and over. Also - I don't like putting my house number in. Your app shouldn't need that. That has stopped me using your app. You're logo in the app store has a typo in it; it says "you" instead of "your". This doesn't make me trust you with my home address. Does this app give my name and address to thieves? Maybe. Maybe they'll use it to Google where I work, and find out when I'm not home.
Useless.. Fix it please?! It doesn't let you upload a profile pic or comment on posts or msg anyone.. they're the only things I've tried to do on it so I'm sure other things wouldn't be working either!
