### 4/5 — Love the app

*2025-10-02*

I think the best part of the app is the link to tech support. They have been so patient through the project. As a senior citizen with some computer experience apparently it wasn’t enough. I found that many of the links on the web page and app did not work or were very difficult to get around which was frustrating. An example was after downloading the logos I couldn’t find the files or they were different than what I thought they were. Also taking a photo with a frame was difficult to navigate. Overall though there was lots of info and aids to help in fundraising. Reward those techs though and thank them all for me

### 3/5 — Not very user-friendly

*2024-12-02*

I'm usually pretty tech-savvy, but I've had some trouble using the app. I also cannot find where to contact anyone with questions.

### 3/5 — How to do stuff?

*2022-09-30, version 6.0*

I’d just like to name my team and postvFirst names. Where do I do that? I give up!

### 2/5 — Great cause but not-so-great app

*2022-09-27*

When it works, it documents your fundraising and compares your fundraising results to other local teams and individual walkers. Unfortunately, the app is glitchy, and often is simply a white screen with inoperable buttons.

### 3/5 — Gina

*2021-08-31*

I can’t really find what I want on this app like how to send Text messages to friends and family requesting donations

### 2/5 — Caution this app is really buggy

*2021-08-09*

I have been using this app for a couple of years now and I am disappointed that it continues to be so buggy. It annoyingly will not remember my login or password and never fails to kill whatever music I have playing when I launch the app even though it doesn’t have an audio component.  The uploading of donations is buggy and not intuitive. I wish it was better.

### 2/5 — Not enough

*2020-10-20, version 5.6*

I would like to be able to access more than what this app has. 
* donor information so I can thank them 
* route info
* countdown to walk info

This app is just a bit too basic.

### 2/5 — Logging steps

*2020-10-17*

This app has potential but it is grossly inaccurate in logging steps!!!  I was walking laps around my pool this AM.  I counted 56 steps to make a complete lap.  I made 10 laps around the pool which should have recorded 510 steps.  I stead, the app only credited me for 294 steps!!! A little over HALF of what I actually did.  I also had to stop for awhile and I could not see where it added the additional steps walked later.   In that regard, I was very disappointed in the app.  Other features showing team information was nice.  

I hope the step logging feature can be upgraded to accurately record # of steps taken.

### 2/5 — Good Cause - Bad App

*2020-10-09*

The login screen sometimes doesn’t work and it won’t let me access my information. Furthermore, the navigation between the different tabs and buttons is inconsistent/sensitive (I still am trying to figure out the best speed to navigate from tab to tab, and how to click on editing features, etc. The website is far superior to the app and I wish focus would be given to improving the app performance. That’s what’ll make the app 5* in my book.

### 2/5 — Difficult to use

*2020-09-02, version 5.1*

I don’t have a clue how to use this app. It makes it very hard to fund raise when I don’t know how to use the tools.

### 4/5 — Needs to Remember Login Info

*2020-06-13*

I do like the app and find it be a very helpful tool. However, it is frustrating to have to login every single time I open the app. Especially on the days I’m opening multiple times. A Face ID login would be cool.

### 3/5 — Tabs

*2020-05-17*

I feel there could be more tabs added to make this a little easier to utilize and do more with

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2019-06-11, version 4.8*

Had this same issue last year. Tells me I’m not connected to WiFi. Which I am. Deleted. Reinstalled. No help. I’ll just use web based browser.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not a toy, so it should work

*2026-01-24*

This fundraising app is crucial to my ALZ Do What You Love campaign, and the fact that I can’t trust it is incredibly frustrating. It’s supposed to be logging my miles and I set it up to do so months ago — no data, many miles not recorded.

### 1/5 — Offline at the worst time

*2025-10-27, version 9.5*

Offline at the worst time and no update from the association

### 1/5 — Facebook connection

*2025-10-17, version 9.5*

It won’t let me log into Facebook to do a fundraiser. Very frustrating!

### 1/5 — Was a good app

*2022-09-20, version 6.0*

This year I have had more problems with this app. Nothing seems to work correctly. I will just use the website.

### 1/5 — Great cause but app doesn’t do what it’s supposed to do

*2022-06-30*

I was so excited that there was an app for this cause but I keep having to get out of it and get back in because it keeps freezing.

### 1/5 — Donations are not showing up.

*2022-03-21, version 5.9*

Argh!  Some donations didn’t show up at all and some were showing up on the wrong team members.

### 1/5 — So disappointed

*2020-11-16*

I used the app for the Houston Alzheimer’s walk. It tracked my steps but when I went to sync, the app froze. I had to restart and ALL of my steps were gone!  So incredibly disappointed that the walk totals will not be accurate.

### 1/5 — Not able to access the virtual path

*2020-09-19*

This app didn’t work for me today. 
No path
No stickers
No step tracking 
No sharing

I also tried several chats with people in the Group Chat on the Event Stage - but it seems that the members of the group were not in Utah.  There were several dozen names, but none appear to be in Utah, or be live in the chat. 

I’m pretty tech savvy, but didn’t find these two functions to be what we expected.

### 1/5 — Old App better

*2019-12-05*

The old app worked great. The new app never allows login and when I can occasionally it won’t allow to remain logged in. The buttons on the logon page don’t work most of the time so I can’t log in.

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2019-07-26, version 4.8*

Same as last year. Won’t recognize my sign in. Changed password same thing.

### 5/5 — Super convenient

*2015-09-12, version 3.0*

I just downloaded this app and haven't had any of the problems that other reviewers mentioned. Seems very intuitive and much easier that using the web version. I posted a walk announcement to Facebook and it worked well.  I look forward to using the app while gearing up for the Oct 17 San Diego walk!
