Not working properly

These days I always seem to get a blank screen instead of the division details.

Almost a waste of time!

It would be useful to know what the Amendments were & who put the move forward. Would like to know who the abstentions are, and why if known. Not sure why the Pie Chart segment has one or two arcs when tapped?

Stopped working

Stopped working on my phone for some reason .

Useful App

More details on voting records and a list of abstentions on individual votes would be helpful. Also geographical representations of MP’s seats interfaced with results would be intriguing.

Why no abstentions?

I think the app is a very good way to see how my MP votes on issues and is a valuable addition to democracy but i do not understand why it does not show the members who abstain on issues. There is also a bit of a delay in the information coming to the app. A step in the right direction but could be better.

Commons Votes app

No longer works. Stopped showing any information, so now having to use the website instead. Shame as used to be a useful app.

App failing to show MPS voting results

This app gives the overall results of the votes but no longer gives a break down on individual mp votes. Interesting it seems any vote connected to leaving the European Union no longer gives a breakdown of MP votes. Conspiracy or not?

Has potential

I am using the iPhone version; the app loads up quickly, and I was pleased by the speed with which it located my local MP and displayed his voting record. However, when I click on one of the votes seeking more information, I get a blank frame, with the “working on it” rotating icon. I have tried shutting the app down and restarting, but the same thing happened. I don’t think I am doing something daft; it looks as if it needs a bit more work.

No faults

Great app - recently have encountered a few slight issues but nothing that isn’t fixable - would highly recommend.

Lacking in detail

Doesn't give you any info on what the vote is, just the official motion name which leaves you heading to Google. Also can't search MP by area. Would be great to see these improvements. Deleted it as there are better, clearer sources of info.

Nice idea and basic layout though.
