PadMapper is a rental search service that shows listings on a map and lets users filter results. Its coverage includes the United States and Canada, with apartments, condos, and houses for rent. Search filters include price, bedroom and bathroom count, rental length, housing type, pet friendliness, broker fees, and custom keywords. Users can view a map and use their current location to search. PadMapper is available on the web, Android, and iOS, including an iPhone and iPad app. Users can save favorite apartments and houses to revisit, and the app lets them message or call landlords. Roommate and sublet listings can be posted and searched for free. Listings are sourced from PadMapper, Zumper, and other networks. The iOS app listing says an anti-spam algorithm is used to support listing quality and legitimacy. PadMapper says it does not verify user-submitted information or listings, investigate properties, or screen renters. Its privacy policy says information may be shared with service providers, affiliates, landlords, and advertising or marketing partners.
