### 3/5 — Request pine Tree Trim and/or change tree in Riverwalk Pkwy but didn’t happen

*2026-08-06, version 3.0.9*

I requested multiple times for trim tree at Riverwalk pkwy, but never get resolved. The tree always throwing needles and pine wood into my backyard all years long. It supposedly replace with cypress tree per email several years ago, but never happened.

### 2/5 — Upgrade app

*2026-06-07, version 3.0.9*

Need to be able to see my original requests. Can’t see the original requests.

### 3/5 — Multiple Photos

*2026-03-31, version 3.0.9*

The app should accommodate multiple photos.  The list of issues should be in alphabetical order.

### 2/5 — Just needs work

*2026-02-06, version 3.0.9*

I’ve always stayed away from using this app because it’s very glitchy. I use it on a phone, which I would assume how most people use it. When I click create a new account call, it always goes to some dead end page.

Then you can only upload two photos for an incident.  

Anyways, I’ll keep trying to use the app, but it’s not the greatest.  

Thx guys!!!

### 3/5 — Help

*2025-09-26, version 3.0.9*

Can’t get it to work

### 4/5 — Works great as long as you don’t try to send a photo

*2025-09-11, version 3.0.9*

I’ve used this app for sometime and even though I give the app proper authorization for photos, it doesn’t work. I’ve alerted 311 to the issue.but nothing changes.

### 3/5 — The app is good, but needs improvements

*2025-06-18, version 3.0.9*

It is easy to post a request; however, logging in is not easy. Every time you have to login you need to enter your username and password. Why can’t there be a way to login using your face ID or even making this an option like many other apps nowadays?

### 3/5 — Problem uploading photos

*2024-10-03, version 3.0.9*

The app had difficulty loading / accepting the photos I selected to add onto the request I was creating……????

### 3/5 — Efficiency

*2024-06-21, version 3.0.9*

I wrote an email to 311 on a few occasions the response was average, hopefully, they get more employees so they can be more efficient.

Thank you for your efforts.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-06-27, version 3.0.9*

The app won’t let you create an account???

### 1/5 — Nothing is done

*2026-01-01, version 3.0.9*

You report but nothing gets done.  What’s the point?

### 1/5 — Did a 5 Year Old Design this App?

*2025-10-20, version 3.0.9*

Dear Developer: 
The app hasn’t received an update in over a year, and refuses to allow you to start over to sign in to pay a utility bill. Your One-Time Payment Option hasn’t worked for months now and is not how you are supposed to serve your customers. Please DELETE the APP from the App Store if you are UNWILLING or UNABLE to make the needed updates to make it work properly.

### 1/5 — Crashes nonstop

*2025-10-08, version 3.0.9*

This thing is horrible. Can’t even open it to start, just crashes non stop.

### 1/5 — Photos

*2025-05-13, version 3.0.9*

The app won’t let me take pictures or let me upload them from my library, very frustrating

### 1/5 — Review

*2025-04-08, version 3.0.9*

There is never a response by the city.

### 1/5 — Trash smh

*2025-03-08, version 3.0.9*

This app is horrible. It’s about the lowest quality app you can ever download. The website is worthless. Remember your account number and just pay by phone . They must have technicians with GED’s with certificates cause my 12 year old daughter could have built a better website and app. SMH

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-01-07, version 3.0.9*

Could not verify my address right in the city close to UCR!! Completely junk!

### 1/5 — Bugs or just garbage?

*2024-07-27, version 3.0.9*

Welcome to the 311 Riverside app, where logging in is the ultimate endurance test for your patience! Ready to pay your utility bill? Great! Just log in. Oh, you already logged in? Too bad, do it again! Did they have a 10-year-old design this app as a school project?

Want to attach a photo to a request? Well, guess what? The app will swear your photo lacks location data, even though it clearly does, and despite giving the app full access to your photos, it insists it doesn't have permission. 

Okay, so maybe taking a new photo will work? Think again! The app flat-out refuses to use your camera. It's almost like it’s saying, “Nah, I’m good. You deal with your broken streetlight on your own.”

All in all, the Riverside 311 app is a masterclass in how NOT to design a user-friendly experience. Stick to calling 311—at least your phone won’t lock you out or pretend your photos don’t exist.

### 1/5 — WOW!

*2024-06-14, version 3.0.9*

This app is AWFUL. I can’t even log in to it! How can the city of Riverside even justify this being on the App Store?!? It doesn’t even do anything!

### 5/5 — Upload photos

*2026-02-18, version 3.0.9*

It does not allow me to upload a screenshot of a map area from my phone. That would be very helpful if it allowed me.

### 5/5 — Five Star Rating

*2025-03-27, version 3.0.9*

The City of Riverside is a great place to live. The 311 platform allows for citizens to interact efficiently and effectively with our City for needed services.
