Useless for Algal Bloom Report

Useless app for reports on Algal Bloom as advertised on the website. There is big blue button in the app for the report but clicking on it does nothing. Please invest more in better app development

Doh! Photo not current, misleading.

Hi

Just looked at image taken hour ago for my/our beach not accurate at all. Somerton Beach South Australia.

Lack of Face ID authentication is really annoying

Asking for my password every time I use the app is stopping me from using it.

The worst app possible

Photo quality makes every beach look clean! Don’t be fooled! Terrible updates terrible app and terrible government waste of money

Doesn’t work anymore. Fix it!

Fails to load anything. Stuck at loading screen
