Most used apps:

Tracetogether
Singpass
Gmail
Google Drive
Chrome
Google Maps
YouTube
OneMap
Zoom
FoodPanda
Grab
McDelivery
Chope
Netflix
Shazam
Mewatch

I never use Mcdelivery nowadays, I prefer ordering it on Grab, much cheaper and more reliable as I can track the exact location of my order at any given time.

Hate Carousell, so hard to find decent people to transact with.

ya tell me about it..quite a lot of them on carousel lately..and also crazy people, lately one person contacted me and i waited for him to turn up and when i called him, he hung up..have to be careful
That’s why it’s important to take deposits, I used to meet up without taking deposit and would some times get stood up, disgusting and inconsiderate behavior on the part of the buyers.

It's called Carouhell for a reason.
For good reason, I can count on one hand the number of good experiences I’ve had, but can’t count the number of negative experiences I’ve had.

All of of my experiences (albeit less than probably a dozen & a half maybe) both buying and selling have all been good. But I must add that I've not used them since last October a year, when I sold our hospital bed.

More and more I’m running into “this app is not available for download in your country/region”

I have always kept my phone set to US because I’ve got subscriptions & purchases that will be terminated if I switch to Singapore.

I have not found a way around this… very annoying.

Same here, incredibly frustrating and I don’t know how to work around it. Not sure if a VPN would make much difference.

Lucky you. I haven’t had that same experience, most of the buyers I’ve dealt with have been inconsiderate and irresponsible- without taking a deposit they either fail to show up or if they do they’re late and unapologetic.
