what3words Reviews 

I think what3words is ingenious. It’s very helpful for someone who is not great at the basic level of directions. The idea that emergency services can locate those off road is amazing. I even used on my wedding invite!!

Use it all the time to meet up with work colleagues or friends as it gives a pin point location instead of having to use road/building names or descriptions which can be misinterpreted.

I have been using What3words for years now and I am incredibly impressed with it. Often meet friends using the app in busy places.

Excellent App. I’ve used it quite a few times to describe a location. It’s the future of addresses.

This is the best navigation app out there. Fantastic in helping find precise locations. Download it now, you won’t regret it.

The best possible way to help friends, suppliers and others find my house in the countryside

Since I discovered this app it's been a life-saver: literally! I live in the Lake District, and one of the first times I used it was to call in Mountain Rescue to a walker who'd fallen 50 feet down a ravine and dislocated his shoulder. It's way better than a postcode: my son lives down a rural road where the postcode takes you down a parallel (but wrong) road: using What3Words lands delivery drivers at his gate. It's an app I recommend to so many people as it's just so accurate and, in many cases, the ONLY way of getting to exactly where you need to be!

I was visiting Prague for a few days and used What3Words to 'locate' my hotel. Then I could use City mapper to plot and navigate my. return easily.

Brilliantly simple and effective way to find a destination and far easier to use than satnav. Highly recommended

Love what3ways - it’s an ingenious global solution to so many location issues!

What a fab idea! So easy to locate things using what3words. Our friends in Crete, Greece use this app as there is no post code for property and trying to arrange deliveries , etc was a nightmare but not anymore

We sometimes travel to foreign countries. It's frightening to be lost in a country where you don't speak the language. Now, whenever we leave the hotel, we mark the location on What Three Words App so we are confident we can return.

Signed up ages ago, but it hadn't remembered me. Had to do it all again.
I saved my home location but when I logged in again immediately there was nowhere to find it, so I had to faff about yet again to get the words. The words keep changing anyway. I find some word combinations easier to remember than others, & I find it hard to remember if there's a plural or not. Do I need a fullstop in-between when quoting it to someone online? I don't know. A courier suggested I add it for greater chances of my parcels being delivered as the postcode pointer isn't accurate but their system won't let me put even the nearest possible relevant one in, so as not to be misleading, as they say it's "too far from their dropped pin marker"! As that is clearly wrong & this is designed to help correct it, it's pointless if their system won't even accept it, even though they've asked for it! Usual 'computer says "no" nonsense'! Sigh!
Pointless, particularly in a hurry - & when else are you going to use it?

In my job, I send engineers out all over the country to fix/maintain kitchen equipment. Across big sites (universities or hospitals fx) this I really helpful as there’s often one postcode for multiple buildings. It saves so much time and confusion. Also use it for scout camps, easy for the parents to identify drop off/collection points for their scouts!

Easily find places, friends etc especially in out of the way places

Just trying to make money. Not a recognised or reliable service. Think text 999 or other systems built in to cars

Not always correct. My neighbours house is attached to mine! Not according to this site it's down the road around the corner. Shite

Spent the day trying to find accurate locations in a park only to find the website only gives within 5m on consecutive multiple attempts. It also does not load quickly enough to be of any use thus burning through the battery. The lag time of website and gps location is rubbish also. The fact it then directs you to Google map for a 10m direction that is inaccurate is similarly annoying. In addition I had to put the three words in multiple times just for it to start registering. Tried to copy and paste only to get a continuous circle going round and round. I have come away with an extremely bad impression of this website and the ability for The whole three words to accurately identify a location within 1 or 2 m
