  • You don’t need full access to my calendar

    Not sure when it changed but the app is requesting full calendar access which isn’t required to add an appointment. Please change back. Thanks

    Developer Response

    Hi Neutron, Thank you for your feedback. GiveBlood requires Full Access for 2 reasons: • To update the donor’s Calendar after rescheduling/canceling an appointment. • To check if their appointment is already in the donor’s Calendar. You will see a pop up giving you the option to allow or don't allow. You can choose to not allow. Thank you for being a donor. The strength of Canada's Lifeline and our ability to improve the lives of patients relies heavily on the commitment of donors, like you. -MB

  • Snacks

    The snacks they give you is poison junk food that makes people sick from the corrupt food industry

    Developer Response

    Hello, we continuously review food and beverage options at our donation events to ensure donor satisfaction. Please send us an email at feedback@blood.ca for any suggestions you may have on the snacks, as this will allow us to forward to the appropriate department. -CT

  • Blood Donations

    Not sure why there are no blood donation locations in Abbotsford, as we must go all the way to Surrey or Langley.
    Which is not a good incentive.

    Developer Response

    Helllo, we have sufficient capacity within our national network of donor centres to keep meeting patients’ needs for blood. However, there is a global shortage of medications called immunoglobulins and plasma needed to make them. We are collecting more plasma, and dedicated plasma donor centres, like the one in Abbotsford, help ensure patients in Canada keep receiving the lifesaving medications they depend on. -CT
  • U have all u want

    This is a very good app, u can get all u want to know in this one! U can see the detailed info about ur previous donation and the next available day for urself to give.

  • Poor planning

    The app is good, but the appointments lack. Hardly ever in our town, and poor hours when they do come

    Developer Response

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We closely monitor our appointments and demand to ensure patient needs are met. If a particular donor centre’s dates and hours don’t meet those needs, we reassess the hours of operation. Together, we are Canada's Lifeline. -CT
