User Reviews

Users report major issues with RSS Chemicals, including performance problems, unreliable authentication, scanning/search failures, and loss of essential inventory features after updates. UI glitches further hinder usability. A minority still notes the scanning capability as a positive, but overall feedback is that the app fails to meet lab safety and inventory needs.

Pros

Scanning functionality enables quick data entry from a mobile device.

Cons

Severe performance issues: the app is slow, unresponsive, and frequently crashes or fails to load.
Login and MFA reliability problems: difficult to log in, MFA/2FA verification is challenging, and users are often logged out after use.
Barcode/QR scanning and campus-wide search failures: scanning QR or searching serial numbers often shows errors or does not work.
Update-related removal of core inventory features: cross-lab visibility, adding new chemicals, and campus-wide search have been removed or obscured.
UI/UX glitches: stretched UI, inaccessible save/back controls, and login button not clearly clickable.

Recent reviews

Please improve the app as it tends to act very slow and becomes unresponsive. Also, a few times, it fails to redirect to the 2FA page.

Neither scanning the QR nor searching the QR serial number seem to work. I just get an “Error Occured” screen. This has been an on and off issue for the past few months.
