1. It would be nice in the future if the Hooked marketing dept could work to offer more local business deals instead of just major restaurant chain deals.The new gold membership dilutes the deals so badly that I am no longer motivated to frequent the restaurants it advertises.
2. It also opens your experience to other smaller businesses that you may not have considered trying before using the app which ended up to be a great experience! Definitely worth the money to use the app.The Hooked service is very good and much simpler to utilize than other options I've tried in the past ; however, that doesn't excuse the current poor state of the app.
3. I love this version too! It's worth it for me because there are some great free or almost-free deals on things that I love (pizza, bubble tea, salads).
4. Now I have to wade through a list of deals in whatever order the app seems to feel like (probably based on who pays them the most) to find ones that are actually within walking distance of me.
5. They still have a lot of great deals on the free version, but I've recently subscribed to the Gold version to try it out.
6. And the base tier deals after the introduction of gold are so limiting, it's not worth the hassle of navigating the unsorted list to find one.
7. Edit #2: After checking back in on this app, it seems like you need to pay money for many deals that were once free.Hooked can have some nice deals.
8. Also, it would be great if there are some more deals for students who are always looking for discounts.Great app and worth the subscription.
9. I'm never going to pay 40 dollars to use "hooked gold." Please give us an option to turn that and those deals off.
10. The map function does not integrate well with Google directions and often places your GPS location in the wrong spot.I have loved the Hooked App since the beginning! I started using it when it was first available in my town, and it definitely saved me a lot of money (especially on chai lattes).
11. Even the free version is great Edit: removed a feature to search based on food type, really unfortunate so I dropped my rating.
