Somewhat okay app. 1) The app says it gives a free 7 days trail which is possible only when you invite your friends to sign up and they have to verify their phone number!!! This is too much of marketing technique :/ 2) I can contact other travelers only with premium features. Also the app is quite slow and has minor bugs that has to be fixed. 3) Most important is that the search option is not working properly. I live in Lausanne, Switzerland and could not find this city in the search bar.

Hi Bhushan, thank you so much for your review. You can start trips, create a local listing to help travelers, like trips, and even get a verification badge for free. Some features are premium. Premium subscribers love GAFFL. They help GAFFL sustain as a business and make GAFFL better. We also added Lausanne for you! You can find it now. : )

This app is just useless and it works awfully š I just wanted to cancel my trip and I couldn't do it immediately despite a good internet connection and other things that I could do in the app ! After a few trials I could finally cancel the trip! And what the hell with the delete process?!!! Why I need to wait for 1 month for the permanent removal of my details?!!!! Whoever read this review, don't download it, otherwise you will just waste your precious time !

Hi Shushanna, thanks for your review. You can cancel your trip by going to your trip and hitting the cancel button. Additionally, deleting your account through the app does take 30 days. We leave a 30 day buffer for anyone who changes their mind about the deletion. If you email us, we can do it for you immediately. Hope this helps.

Redundant, useless, rip off, no support. Nice concept, but needs a massive overhaul. Most people needing it won't want to fork out cash to find a travel mate, and you can't do anything without paying. No function to report people (which you'll need because the only people that seem to pay are there to spam or scam you), and no way to contact support. Everything it offers you can already do through Facebook and Gumtree for free, with a much bigger audience.
