There's no Android widget for home or lock screen so it's useless in emergencies

Horrible people. They have started well years ago, with a great app that gives drivers very accurate locations. However now, it is full of adverts, and anything you do now, they charge. Plus they force you to download more apps that if you consent, will take your data and share with 210 partners! So, you will be bombarded with adverts and your personal data will be accessed and shared big time! Avoid these guys, Google Maps and Waze is still free.

No longer use this app. It was very good but now ruined by large adverts blocking the top if the screen which seem impossible to close as it still leaves a big white empty box in its place. Shame really as it has destroyed what was a good app. No doubt profit focused.

I tried to use the Website "WHAT3WORDS" to find out the exact location of a crime i had witnessed, so i could give the police the EXACT location but the map kept moving to my home location, The app used to be excellent and free, now its unusable unless i pay, Thank god for Ordance Survey !

The paywall is a moronic idea. What3Words pushed the concept for the use of outdoor enthusiasts and rescue services, now they have turned around and require payment outside the extensive crowdfunding rounds. An excellent way to lose early and regular users.

I was an early adopter of w3w and was once an ambassador for them. I used to promote the app even afterwards simply because of its brilliance. I also invested in their crowdfunding campaign. Now, every useful feature is behind a paywall. A massive disappointment!

Used to be great. Now if I want to save more than 10 locations I need to subscribe to the Pro plan.
Back to using latitude and longitude.

Tried to sign up to what three words. Gave payment details though it stated no payment required. Then find a payment is being taken from my account by an unrelated company that now have my details. Believe payment details have been intercepted!
Either way it’s a scam to get payment details!

Not really usable now

What3Words was revolutionary. Such an incredible concept that people could use to help them with directions, pinpoint exact location in emergencies.

Now, everything is stuck behind the "pro" paywall. Even simple features, such as opening up a location in a navigation app such as Waze is a pro feature.

This is one of the biggest cases of en****ification I've ever come across. I'm no longer recommending this app to anyone, and using alternatives.

Worse than insurance companies ,I helped to build this system only to find they want me to pay, had the subscription been reasonable for example lifetime one off payment £5 that would be acceptable, also features removed means this is no longer a life saver

This is a brilliant idea. The issue which led to losing a star is that, since it’s release I have promoted this to anyone who will listen…how am I rewarded? By yet another paywall, my navigation options removed and only 10 saves etc etc! Someday an alternative option will be available and once loyal people will have no reason to be loyal! Very disappointed in this change but I can’t justify lower mark as it’s still a brilliant idea.

I used to be a huge supporter of What3Words. It was a brilliant idea, and I enthusiastically recommended it to friends, family and businesses because I genuinely believed in it.

Sadly, the company has chosen to monetise its loyal users rather than reward them. Features that made the app genuinely useful are now locked behind a Pro subscription.

The app is full of upgrade prompts and intrusive advertising, and I've now discovered I can't even save new locations because I've hit the arbitrary limit of just 10 saved places unless I pay.

This isn't innovation—it's a classic example of making a great product progressively less useful in an attempt to drive subscriptions.
I've gone back to using Waze. It may not offer the same concept, but at least it doesn't cripple basic functionality or constantly pressure me to upgrade.

What3Words had a great business model: license the technology to commercial users while keeping the service simple and free for the everyday users who helped make it successful. Instead, they've chosen to alienate the very people who championed the product.

A real shame. I can no longer recommend it & have now deleted the app & encourage everybody else to do the same, perhaps they’ll sit up and listen… though I doubt it.

What used to be a genuinely useful app has been stripped down and degraded though aggressive attempts at monetisation.

Core features that were previously free are now locked behind a "Pro" subscription which feels less like adding premium value and more like locking standard functionality behind a paywall. At the same time the app experience has been deliberately weakened to the point where the web version is (marginally) more capable than the logged-in app.

On top of that the intrusive advertising takes up a large portion of the screen and further reduces usability making even basic interaction frustration.

This isn't an improvement or evolution of the product, it's a case study in enshittification where usability is deprecated unless you pay.

Needless to say, I no longer have any interest in this app or service.

W3W was excellent. But as an individual user I don't use the app enough to warrant another subscription. The ads taking up part of the screen and web page make it worse.
A one off fee or lower subscription would have kept me. Unfortunately other mapping solutions are nicer to use right now.

Great app! Seems odd at first until you know how it works. Three words mark your spot within a 10x10 box anywhere in the world, and you share those three words with others to find you. Super easy and useful!

This app is no longer useful as you now suddenly have to pay. Greedy, contemptuous action by this company, attempting to force money from their customers. They have just mugged their loyal customers and this kind of thing should be illegal. I have deleted the app and will never use them again. I encourage everyone to do the same.

Always used Waze and promoted use of W3W but now there is a paywall they have deserted their individual followers.
Typical attitude of software start ups to past supporter's.
I've gone back old school in using Waze as both Google and Apple maps are 2nd rate nav tools.

Update days later whilst on volunteering for charity supporting NHS.
Needed to input and save a hospital location. W3W now has paywall limit to max 10 locations and doesn’t allow me to use the Save process. W3W is now irrelevant for future new locations without going Pro. That is not going to happen. Need Google/Waze to up their game.
If I could give Zero stars, I would.

I used to be evangelical about W3W, it is a brilliant idea and it used to work in a simple and accessible way. Now the app is constantly pushing me to upgrade to a paid tier just so that it can paste a lat/long into Google Maps. The original idea was a good one - get enough people using the service that you can charge delivery companies money to license it. I pressured every company I buy things from to use a W3W address. But if you're going to put pressure on me personally, the end user, I'll just stick with free services. Maybe this makes sense up in the C-Suite, but here on planet Earth businesses who actively degrade their products tend to fail.
