Gets stuck waiting for approval
I’ve found the app easy to use for both my sons who are now on Gold level.
But it’s frustrating when it gets stuck on “waiting for approval “. If the Award leader is slow or can’t find the email there is no way to resend it.needs a resend option

Hi, thanks for the tip, they are actually not getting any emails, the approvals are waiting for them in the system or they get a push notification when they use the app. Unfortunately there is not much you can at this moment than wait.Great app.. room for improvement
Overall an extremely useful resource for anyone completing any stage of Duke of Ed. Would be really useful and be a better resource for hours logging if:
The Overview part of Adventurous journey section could be edited after submitted, or if your leader doesn’t accept it and submits it back it doesn’t allow you to change the details of the trip. Plan and prep section of adventurous journey - same thing - would be useful if after initially submitting could Change the dates of the selected (green switches) things have been initially entered in - could enter sub submissions in the details of logs -
- allow comments to be attached when making submissions to your supervisors and leader and vise verse them be allowed to, especially when they don’t except a submission would be helpful to allow comment and message attachment in logging
Would also be helpfull if you actually included some information about duke of Ed in the app itself, obviously all the info on the web page is very helpful but would be good to have some of that info all in the same placeShow lessGgvhdd39
Glitch in adding activity
The activity progress bar is not increasing when adding logs, neither are the hours.Ios 14.2 beta
Developer Response
Hi, the basic principle of the Award is that only one hour weekly is counted to your progress. Hence the progress bar increases only once per weekRegistration final stage not working?
When I go to complete my DoE next stage registration (gold) I can fill everything in except the payment details (which says is a required field but will not allow us to enter anything). Is it an app problem and can you fix it?Cat in Kingston

Rubbish App
I have sent in my assessment to the assessor’s and some don’t receive it. And those that do receive it have some other trouble with approving it.
We have asked multiple times how to get it to work and they have sent back ways to do so. But all the ways either tell you to press a button that doesn’t exist or just link you to another page that also tells you to press non-existent buttons.
Submitting “Logs” is the only thing that works fairly smoothly.Show lessNick name mc knick name
the activities
If you have added an additional activity to one of the components like ‘physical recreation’ it can’t be deleted, even if no logs were added. i didn’t have to use my additional activity for any extra hours, but it still needs to be assessed and approved.12kcjshsosjd
Needs improvements
Unfortunately this app has lots of issues. Unable to change and resend requests for approvals.Even the when changes by the leader.bobby 649
great app
I’ve heard this is a great app I just have a suggestion… on reading the reviews it appears that most people think this is for the UK DofE? I know it says International and has a different name, but maybe you could write somewhere clearly that this is not for the UK?? I did download the DofE app but as this came up on the search I assumed it was part of the same. However, I read the reviews before using so there’s no problem, but for those that don’t… you’d save yourself a lot of time and frustration having to reply to so many with the same message? It is an entertaining read lol, but your ratings are suffering because of it?! Thank uShow lessDancingred1
Meh ...it’s a bit confusing
Sometimes difficult to navigate
Can be hard to edit any input done on prior activities
It’s difficult to know what is required
Sometimes when you input goals they become fixed and they are not changeable
Sometimes schools need to be modified given the circumstances and the program is not flexibleApple-Fritter
Developer Response
Hi, editing already inserted logs is easy directly from log detail. Changing activity or activity goal is only possible by award leader since they are responsible for the right goal selection.
