BrickSeek 4+

As a daily, extreme user of brickseek, and a committed subscriber to their premium services, I feel compelled to express my deep dissatisfaction with the latest update. The new navigation scheme is not just unintuitive; it’s a significant step backward in user experience. It seems evident that this update was insufficiently tested, if at all, with real users who rely on brickseek for their daily tasks. A beta rollout to a select group of users could have prevented many of these issues by gathering essential feedback on usability. Furthermore, the lack of an option to refrain from auto-updates or revert to the previous version exacerbates the situation. That earlier version was, without exaggeration, a hundred times easier to navigate. This update feels like a classic case of “fixing” something that wasn’t broken, to the detriment of your most loyal users.

So I understand why they force you to have an account and login so they can collect data to sell and make enough money to stay in operation. But now restricting you to only selecting two stores in some cases? And the app makes it impossible by any practical means to change your location if you want to search for a region where you may be traveling. This is just about the most convoluted useless app I’ve run across in the past few years. Come on guys, you can do better because in the past you did!

As the title say, the app is all but useless after the last update. Would honestly give 0 stars if I could. Both the user interface and the actual functionality have taken several steps backwards. Its now worse than what you’d expect of a free app, much less one with a paid membership. Worse still, they are now charging for “add-ons” to get some of the same features my paid membership previously included. I won’t be paying for long if they don’t fix it.
