The Job Board is a neat feature, I was able to find someone to help me for a day doing odd jobs around the house and found someone to help shovel the driveway when I’m gone for work. Tough to find those services.
★★★★☆Mitchell Newman· Jun 5, 2020
Lots of potential, but still lots to improve. Searching for tools is difficult as the order of the words seem to be important ("impact wrench" and "wrench, Impact" yield different results). Also tool names are super specific instead of being generic and easy to search. A better categorization and filter system would be enormously helpful. Loading screen that flashes up and down briefly is annoying and unnecessary. User profile page w/ menu should be the first tab. UI could be improved lots.
★★★★★Allisha Hamilton· May 19, 2020
Such a great idea as we haven't acquired many tools yet and when needing something in a pinch you can find almost anything you're looking for.
★★★★★Nic McPherson· Apr 29, 2021
I just bought my first house, and this app is great for renting tools that I can't afford to buy. Also, gread for making some cash on the side. App could be more user-friendly but still works alright.
★☆☆☆☆Robert Regier· Dec 18, 2020
Can't add my city, so I can't add tool to my toolbox, so I can't use the app. I like the idea of this app, but it needs work. Willing to change my rating if I can use the app.
★☆☆☆☆J. Snider· Jul 6, 2025
Won't let me log in. Say you have been deleted account. I can't even create a new account or sign into my old one. What the heck.
★☆☆☆☆Daniel O'Neill· Mar 20, 2020
Remember when we used to lend and borrow things, instead of using a parasitic "gig" app to rent out gear and let it siphon out a percentage? These types of parasitic "services" are hideous. Remember in Halifax, Nova Scotia we have a tool lending library where all nominal fees stay in the local economy. Reject this kind of crass e-capitalism at all times.
★☆☆☆☆Derek Bueckert· Jun 14, 2023
Auto complete put a +1 In front of my phone number when signing up and left out the last two digits. Now I can't verify or make a new account because my email is in use already. App is now unusable.

Description by David ThiessenWritten by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
"The Good Neighbour" is a new and amazing app to help everyone save money on their household renos and projects! Absolutely free to download. It's based simply on neighbour to neighbour tool rentals. Log in and add all your tools to your "toolbox" that way your tools will come up when neighbours search. Need a tool? just search for it, watch all the results pop up near you. Use the tool for a fraction of the cost new. A rating system is in place so you rest with ease knowing that your tools will be treated with care. The good neighbour keeps track of who has your tools and will make sure your tool comes back the way it left. All transactions are conducted through the app. Imagine a community where you can just walk down the street for a tool. instead of running to the hardware store and spending a fortune.
