Please fix ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App never works *2025-09-03, version 7* I don’t know if it’s the developer or the bail bonds but just to use the app you have to delete and re download everytime you open it ### 1/5 — T-Hood *2022-12-15, version 2.6* The application keeps crashing not letting me login in which is causing me to miss check - ins ### 1/5 — Doesn’t recognize my email *2022-04-16, version 2.5* Didn’t send me an email. Basically didn’t work. ### 1/5 — Never works (iPhone X) *2020-02-16, version 2.1* It requires you to take a selfie to check in, but it never works with the camera. The part of the screen that previews the photograph is just 100% black whether you use the front camera or rear camera. Tapping the shutter release button to try taking a picture doesn’t work. Junk app. ### 1/5 — Can’t sign in *2019-08-24, version 2.1* I tried to do my first sign in and I was never prompted to enter an email to receive my key. It just sent me straight to the sign in page so now I can’t make an account. Please fix this or help me understand why. Thank you! ### 1/5 — Two bonds companies *2018-04-23, version 1.8* I am going through two bonds companies that both use this app but they do not know how I can use it for both. Is there a way? ### 1/5 — F*ck this app *2018-02-06, version 1.7* They want access to your location, they can turn your camera on and off to record you when ever, they also have access to your fb and Instagram.

Police state app ### 2/5 — Frequent issues authenticating *2025-08-12, version 7* I have to call the bonding agent almost every week, as the app updates unlink my device.
