Used the W3W system now for several weeks. It's such a brilliant idea.
I use it mostly in conjunction with my Mercedes Benz MBUX system and my mobile phone or voice control. It works seamlessly and quickly. No more sitting on the driveway plugging in imprecise postcodes or fumbling with coordinates in varying complex formats.

Similarly sending and sharing locations is now simple on any platform.

I'm converted and now a big fan of What 3 Words and am looking forward to on going development. I am especially keen to see dark mode mapping introduced on Android W3W apps.

Keep going W3W and don't loose your way.

Great app easy to use. I have added it to my email details when sending any. Great for any emergency when you need to be found ie.on land or at sea. Help if you need it the first hour is the most important for saving life. Please use this app it's your life and we only have one

Fantastic app. We use for great camping locations. Also a great tool for fishing spots. We have also used it for letting friends know where we are at a rugby game. Fun and easy to use.

This is a radical app that the whole world should be using as a standard tool for addresses and location identity. Here in Thailand, the only people who can understand and locate an address in most perts of the country are the postmen. Anyone else, forget it! How I wish businesses, courier companies (and Thai Post) would adopt what3words as a tool. It would solve many, many problems!

In "Guidelines for Reviewers" the first sentence reads: "Trustpilot is here to help you shape and improve the world". Exactly the same could be said of 'What3Words'.
87% of reviewers give 'What3Words' 5-stars. Another 2% give 4-stars.
No matter how good is a product, a service, or a piece of technology, there will always be some critics.
I respect the 8% who gave a 1-star review. However, as an octogenarian, I applaud the creators of 'What3Words' and can see why some of the world's most successful businesses in 49 countries are now using it. What an achievement in just 8 years!

Awesome program. Easy to send location and picture to meet up with friends.

I wish more delivery services used it -- it's so much better than a street address.

I’m researching my family history, which often leads to cemeteries as I search for ancestors’ final resting places.
I’m making it easier for friends and relations who follow to also be able to visit the graves, by including what3words addresses.
So much easier than trying to find locations using generally vague directions sometimes but rarely provided by Cemetery management.

This app is fabulous. A great way to agree a pick up point with teenagers. The uses are only limited by your imagination.

Really helps communicating a difficult address to someone else.

A simple, brilliant location app. We use it when co-ordinating get togethers with friends in wilderness areas. Fantastic for safety now it is incorporated in the Australian government Emergency Plus app.

what3words has proven to be invaluable to me as a professional photographer! I use it to assign meet-up locations for my models, fellow photogs, and assistants and it’s never let me down! I saw a tweet recently from our Ontario Provincial Police, stating they had used it that day to locate a person who was lost in one of our huge provincial parks, and they were recommending everyone to get the app since it was a lifesaver for anyone needing assistance in rural or unfamiliar locales. That’s quite an endorsement! I highly recommend this app to anyone!

Extraordinarily useful. I’m a lifestyle block owner, and use w3w for keeping track of fruit tree and shelter plantings. Also useful for deliveries of building materials etc when I can’t be home.

I just love what3words. We live in the country and sat Navan and postcodes are hopeless. W3W works every time.

Simple useful easy; in 3 words

This is an amazing app. In my experience it has been really useful to help people locate my home, deliveries etc. I'm aware of its use in an emergency too

What an amazing app and a brilliant idea, works perfectly, I was on Loch Lomond on my boat with my wife, we found a great beach on a secluded island, used W3W to tell my friend who came and joined us, impossible without such a brilliant system..

This is great-has always been accurate and helpful. I am trying to get our search and rescue to add it to their system and as more and more systems incorporate what3words I am sure they will add it as well.

Our job as volunteer litter pickers at a National Trust Park often gives us a problem when coming across ‘litter’ too big or heavy to remove. W3W to the rescue. Identifying the position by means of the W3W app, and sending this to the depot where men and equipment can turn out and clear the problem quickly and efficiently. A great asset.

I use what3words to give our weekly running club members the exact location for the run location start.
We run from a different location each week and given that they are currently from a remote parking location in the countryside it works flawlessly every time. 😊

I haven’t used W3W yet until travel opens up more but have looked into its menus and think it is great. My concern was finding a destination and its 3 word address but once I figured out the menus I think it will be very easy to use when destinations are saved.
