User Reviews

The app often logs users out frequently for no reason. Also, it lags and notes entered often do not appear. After selecting the type of observation, it does not take users back to options ending up logging in and out which is time consuming.

When I open the application it does not move beyond the eel come screen. Really disappointing for such a large company and so many end users.

Got one observation done and it crashes. Defeated it and tried to reinstall but doesn’t seem to want to play
