Scam likely???

I’ve now downloaded two apps to try to use vercel on iOS both of them have had the same exact UI and integration function with the integration. Add button does not work after logging in with all your credentials.

This is such a well made app for something I thought was too specific

I love using NextJs for my websites but I also love using Vercel to host it. When I try to share the site links to my clients and whatnot, there is always a little fall off but with this app I can see a bright and simpler future ahead for how I can coordinate these showcases.

Very smooth and simple design! Great job

Looks great but status isn’t updating correctly

When I click on a deployment, the “status” isn’t updating correctly

For example if I click on a deployment that I can see on the website in front of me is “Building” - The Zeitgeist app correctly shows the deployment under the recent deployments section as building but when I click on it, I can see the UI initially shows “building” in purple but then immediately changes to a greyed out “Ready” which is incorrect.

Once that gets fixed I’m happy to increase my rating but otherwise I’m not entirely trusting the data in this app to be accurate just yet.

Would also be incredibly useful if the UI showed the branch that is being deployed, not just the commit name.

Main app doesn’t work

Widget works fine but no projects display on the app screen. Friend has the same behavior on his end

Can’t see any projects

Sadly

Great UX!

Overall much nicer than checking email notifications from Vercel

Nice to have but limited

Doesn’t show you deployments that did not get executed due to failures in CD on GitHub. I get that that’s not the purpose of the app, but it would be nice to see them.

Response from developer

Hey vsvdmvn! Thanks for your review. Zeitgeist only connects to your Vercel account, and as such does not have visibility into GitHub CD failures, especially if those jobs prevent a deployment being created in the first place. If Vercel adds this information to their API in the future, I can integrate it.

Can’t sign in

Prompts for a sign in through Vercel but immediately crashes with an edge function error.

Review update: dev was quick to respond and fixed the issue! Thanks!

Hi there! I’m sorry you encountered this problem. I recently pushed a fix to the authentication server that should allow you to sign in without any issues.

🤷‍♂️Works

Was hoping to have notifications built in but it’s a bit steep to ask for a subscription on top of an already paid app. Works for viewing deployments but would be nice to list individual projects in a grid view as well. Well designed and speedy to navigate :)

Would also be cool to have a default selected account and also a widget to view recently failed deployments etc.

Thanks for your review! I’m pleased to report that from version 2.2, Notifications are no longer paywalled. I also appreciate your feature suggestions—I plan on incorporating some of these changes in the next major update. I look forward to hearing any additional feedback and feature requests you might have for Zeitgeist.

Buggy

On my iPhone 12 Pro Max, I cannot select some of the buttons. I looks like there are some compatibility problems with edge of screens.
Edit: I complained about UI problems on my iPhone 12 Pro Max… the issues have now been fixed in the latest release! Updating my stars & review here.

Response from developer

Hi there! I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing UI bugs in Zeitgeist. I just released a big update in v2 which might address some of the issues you encountered. If you continue to experience problems, please feel free to submit feedback via the new in-app form.
