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.

Great place to find a room! I needed a room on short notice and spareroom was the perfect platform to find one. The app made it super easy to connect with people and filter conversations. It only took me a week to find a place and I'm very happy.

Very professional, clean and to the point kind of experience. Their customer experience and support phone number is legit and of excellent service. They locked my account out as a landlord when I created the ad, but it only reinforced my perception of the legitimate set of users and advertisers that are on SpareRoom

Mostly good experience with the app until the last update for android, it completely broke the map search feature, when you try to search the area you are looking it resizes the map to a bigger or completely different area.

Hi there, we're sorry you've had difficulty with the map view. Please get in touch using customerservices@spareroom.co.uk, including any screenshots or ideally a screen recording if possible. We'll be happy to look into this for you to ensure everything is working as it should. Best Wishes, The SpareRoom Team.

What's new

In this update, we’ve made significant improvements to the saved ads experience. You can now filter them by status (saved, contacted, shown interest, hidden), sort them (newest, last updated, highest rent/budget, lowest rent/budget), and view them on a map.

We’ve also added some extra functionality to messaging. If you’ve got multiple active ads, you’ll now be able to filter your conversations to see just ones about a specific ad or just those from users with room wanted ads you’ve contacted.
