Review summary

The Pingboard Android app is valued for its organizational tree feature and ability to help users get to know their colleagues. The development team is responsive to issues and fixes bugs. However, many users experience frequent crashes, persistent login problems with multiple authentication methods, and unexpected sign-outs. Features like search and directory ('Who's who') often malfunction or display incorrect information. Navigation and certain functionalities such as status updates are limited, leading to user frustration despite its potential usefulness.

2022-01-10	Ma*****	This app always has bugs, now i can't sign in because they took off the "login with Google" tab.

2021-12-03	Al*****	Everything's worked fine so far. Very cool to be able to see the organization tree and get to know a little bit about my peers who I don't get to interact with regularly.

2021-11-11	Be*****	Unfortunately on my LG V60, this app opens and immediately closes everytime. I have done updates, restarted phone, uninstalled/reinstalled and still the same. Bummed, because it could be a useful tool to pair with the website.

2021-07-26	Si*****	Devs, you don't need more feedback. You just need to fix it. This came out in 2014? It's 2021 now. I read the bad reviews, but thought I'd give it a chance since the last review was a few months ago. Being able to login is where the usefulness ends except for maybe viewing the org chart, which needs a lot of navigation improvements. It crashes every minute or so, almost anytime you need to hit the back button. Also, the search function doesn't find any data no matter how basic.

2021-06-22	Le*****	Major: You can't update your Status 🤬. Minor: Name matching game: You are shown an obvious male, but 3 out of 4 names are female? Also, we are located in diff offices and with different name variations, and you are shown an obvious Caucasian but 3 out of 4 choices are Asian names 😓. Minor: people who are no longer with the company are not listed in the website, but still listed in the app 😓.

2020-10-26	St*****	We highly suspect this application/company sells the collected e-mails to 3rd parties. Our company developed a significant spam problem after signing up with them, when we'd had none previously. While this is circumstantial, we also had changed the default e-mails at that time, and the spam is coming in with the new format, so it's not from any of the old vendors, since we didn't update them with the new addresses.

2020-02-22	A *****	Completely, utterly useless. Literally not a single action I tried worked, other than finding my own info. Everything else results in either a crash or the app becoming unresponsive.

2019-11-19	A *****	Who's who doesn't work, I'm new to the office and trying to get to know names and faces. An employee's face pops up with an immediate incorrect notification and then moves onto the next photo only to do the same thing over again. I don't even get to see the names.
