Like: Easy to match, set up, and pay a person ready to help with a task.
Dislike: Profile pictures should be taken from their legal license. I clicked on someone who seemed younger and could handle the job in a 2-3hr span. The person who showed up was much much older than expected, and therefore slower.
She did fabulous work - but I was 'catfished' into spending more than expected.
Taskrabbit asks how long something will take and the customer gets quoted a price.
Ex. Task is medium 2-3 hrs.
The helper should work for 2-3 hours.
Then the customer can be prompted through the app to pay for more time, or end the task "on time".
Please also include an option for language options and be more transparent about using an interpreter app to communicate.
For these 3 reasons the job took longer, I spent more than expected, and we take language for granted trying to explain the exact tasks needed.
I wanted a thorough clean of a few major parts of the apartment and left the house for an hour because cleaning chemicals bothered my allergies/asthma - this woman was scrubbing walls inside closets for an hour, which was unnecessary and not listed in the comments/instructions. Because of the miscommunications, I had to extend the time an hour.
She was thorough and a wonderful house cleaner - but because of all of the above I was dissatisfied with the Taskrabbit app in general.
