## Review summary

Users appreciate the Ampath app's ability to access lab test results and biometric login for ease. However, multiple recurring issues cause frustration: restricted usage outside South Africa, persistent login problems including OTP failures and password reset difficulties, inability to update outdated contact methods leading to unusable accounts, unreliable result displays with stale or missing data, and general app instability. Many reviews highlight the need for better support and enhancements to compete with other lab apps like Lancet.

### Pros

- Allows users to view lab test results directly in the app.
- Supports biometric login for convenience.
- Helps users keep track of their own health records over multiple years.

### Cons

- App is inaccessible and unusable outside South Africa.
- Frequent login issues including password resets, OTP delivery failures, and being locked out for long periods.
- Inability to update or change outdated contact details linked to user profiles.
- App displays no or outdated test results and notifications often indicate available results that do not appear.
- Poor app stability, freezing and not loading past the logo with no effective support or updates.
