Review summary

Users find the Demand Action app promotes important advocacy tools but face significant technical problems including installation failures, app crashes, and login/account creation errors. Usability issues such as incorrect state selection and poor navigation frustrate users. Even when the app works, member engagement is low with discussions mostly from moderators. Some users find success by reinstalling or force stopping the app. Overall, the app has potential but is hindered by frequent bugs and difficulties that prevent users from effectively participating.

Pros

App promotes gun safety and provides tools to help explain and advocate for background checks on all gun sales.
Potential for member engagement and discussions as highlighted by moderators' posts.
Some users were eventually able to get the app working after reinstalling or force stopping the app.

Cons

App frequently fails to install or open, often crashing immediately after launching.
Persistent login and account creation issues, including errors about valid email, 'unusual activity' blocking account creation, and inability to reset passwords.
Incorrect or unchangeable state selection during sign-up; user interface issues such as missing submit button or difficult navigation.
Reports of the app indicating no internet connection despite having internet access.
Low engagement among members with limited ability to start conversations and general usability challenges.

2024-04-15	Bo*****	Unable to install despite over a dozen attempts. Tells me there is an error. I cannot log in Updating one month later with same complaint I am testifying at the state Capitol and missing the connection with other members due to this failing app.

2024-02-22	Su*****	It won't let me create an account. Keeps telling me to use a valid email. I have verified it is correct!

2023-01-19	Ea*****	Very difficult to install. Repeatedly insisting my email was already in use, but would not allow me to reset password so I installed on a second email. I will try using it, despite using original email for all of my Mom's Demand Action business. Hopefully it will be useful enough that using two emails will not be too much of a problem.

2023-01-02	Fr*****	The app has a lot of potential but there doesn't seem to be enough engagement from those who are members on the app. Discussions are only posts from moderators and even tho there is a filter to show "Your Posts", the option to start a conversation is non existent.

2022-09-18	Mi*****	Too hard to enter the correct state when I signed up. Would not scroll past Alabama. Plus, if you have my zip code, why do I need to enter a state? Cannot answer the second question yet - not enough experience with this app -- but no N/A option so I just have to pick a response at random. No "submit" button. This sucks!
