Terrible concept/execution

From a consumer's perspective, this is a nightmare. They have these ridiculous times that you have to get qualified to get the shoe. Not even actually getting the shoes, but being qualified to get them. If you are qualified and actually catch these ridiculous time slots, you aren't notified to be able to purchase the shoe. It didn't notify whether I got them or not. Years ago, it wasn't this difficult to get a pair of shoes you wanted. Now, they make it impossible for anyone to get their desired sneakers. It's frustrating. With that being said, it's best not to download this app if you are trying to get some shoes. It's best to either order from another site or go to a locating that sells them. From a developer's perspective, although the front end looks nice, the backend needs work. The response time is trash. It lags when you try to make a purchase and some of the features are useless. The notification features needs work, because it doesn't notify you when you ask it to (and yes, I turned my notifications on for this app). On top of that, they will open the purchasing of a shoe a minute before they say it's actually releases, which causes confusion for those who open the app or refresh the page to get in line on time. I can go on and on, but the point of all of this is, this app is subpar and useless.

Ridiculous

I recently tried to purchase a new pair of 1's that came out. I logged on just in time my payment info was already in all I had to do was click the purchase button come 10 o'clock and I did just that. It told me my order was pending and that they'll let me know if I got them or not. 2 seconds later I got a notification that I "got em" and they sent me a verification email with my shipping details. They gave me an arrival date of May 29th and now today I received an email saying my order was "cancelled". Confused, I called nike (waited 45 minutes so I assumed this happened to multiple people) and they basically said the reason my order is cancelled is because they have no more in stock. So my whole point is don't send people verification that they "got" the shoe cause that makes it seem like you guys have an absolute pair reserved for me when you didn't. When you purchase shoes on snkrs and they send you verification saying you "got" the shoe it actually IS FALSE they have no reserved pair for you once they check your order in which it was received in and they have no more in stock they just cancel the order. Very silly. Don't get me wrong I believe in "first come first serve" but if I wasn't one of the first and don't actually have a pair reserved for me dont send me verification saying I got them then cancel my order 5 days before the day you guys TOLD me they would arrive. Makes no sense to me.

Bots killed the Game

I am a huge sneaker fanatic since a child and I remember whenever a sneaker dropped you could walk right into the store a week later and still be able to cop some heat for retail. Now a days we have a bunch of kids using bots to buy out all of the stock just to mark that sneaker up an extra $100 to $200+ above retail which is ridiculous. I haven't won one draw yet and I've always been on time and ready to go to purchase whatever sneaker is available at the time and no success. Your team need to do a better job at focusing on taking out these bots so we can actually have a fighting chance to purchase a sneaker we actually want, sneakers we are actually gonna wear and not resell. This is the reason why I've haven't bought a new pair of kicks in the past 2 years because I don't wanna pay $500 for sneaker that sold retail for less than $200 that is stupid to do especially in these times. I have 2 young boys that once the time comes they are gonna wanna purchase shoes just like their daddy but I wouldn't be able to afford buying my 2 boys the latest heat because I would have to pay resell cost or get extremely lucky which that's just not fair. Fix this and maybe I'll give this app 5 stars but until then you will continue to get negative reviews from not only me but other unhappy fans of this product.
P.S. you have a lot of unhappy fans. (FIX THE APP/ STOP THE BOTS)
