## Review summary

User reviews consistently rate the Android app poorly due to unstable logins, crashes, and unreliable mapping. Recurring issues include missing or incorrect mower location data, broken alerts, and difficulty managing multiple devices. Some users note the hardware mower can work and the app can perform basic tasks when functioning, but overall the software is slow, buggy, and poorly supported.

### Pros

- Hardware mowing capability remains usable; manual operation still works when the app is not blocking.
- Basic app functionality exists and can perform tasks (does the job) when the app is functioning.
- Map view shows mower position in the app, providing a location reference when it works.

### Cons

- Persistent login problems and random logouts across devices.
- Frequent crashes, freezes, or unresponsive behavior in the app.
- Unreliable mapping/location data; mower position incorrect or not updating progress.
- Notifications/alerts are broken or missing, with little information when issues occur.
- Poor support for multiple devices/mowers; switching between accounts or devices is cumbersome.
