About this app

As the UK’s number 1 flatshare site, we’ve helped over 13,000,000 people to find their perfect flatmate or flatshare. With our apps, you can do it all while on-the-go.

Suitable for Everyone

Whether you’re starting university, relocating to the UK, tired of living alone, weighing up what to do with an empty room, or, quite simply, searching for another flatmate or flatshare, we’re the service for you.

Unrivalled Choice

With thousands of flatsharing opportunities to choose from in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Edinburgh, Glasgow, and right across the UK, you’ll be able to find your perfect flatmate or flatshare.

Our Philosophy

Experience has taught us that flat sharing is as much about the people as it is about the property. To help you find the best of both, we provide unparalleled tools, choice, and support. As a result, on average, every 3 minutes someone finds a flatmate through SpareRoom.

Number 1 in the UK, well as the only one apart from fragmented non-specialised listing's, doesn't say much. All they want to do is upwell users into spending money, support is unhelpful, profile page does not exist, advise is to post an ad. No-one actually looks at them when you are looking. Landlords ghost you constantly over 20 messages sent, only 4 replies and they all state they are looking for a female lodger even though the ad didn't say it. This is not user friendly.

Hi James, we're sorry to hear you didn't get the response you were hoping for. We do offer a free service; you can post and contact without paying. The upgrade is helpful, but optional. We'd be happy to help you get the most from your account. Please email us directly at customerservices@spareroom.co.uk. Best wishes, The SpareRoom Team

Works Great! Worth the fee.Im in agreement with another reviewer where it should be mandatory to have a photo for renters and landlords.That aside its great and functions perfectly for what its designed to do.

I think the app is well designed. However, the moment I posted an ad it become ideal. I had a room in 3 days. If you need a room I highly recommend it.

What’s new

In this update, we've introduced new features for buddying up with other users. You can now search for people looking to rent a whole property with others and see who has expressed interest in a whole property when viewing that ad.

We've also added manual photo rotation and made it quicker and easier to search for suitable users for your room or whole property.
