User reviews

Can't attach a photo which is already been taken

I wanted to upload a photo of a black bee I took in my garden, but you can only take photos from the app itself.

Possum App Doesn't Work

I downloaded this app specifically to participate in the possum project.

1. It failed to send me the validation email on registration - perhaps this was unnecessary because I was subsequently able to access it with my password.

2. It referred to a "tutorial" which I couldn't find, except as a "repeat tutorial" button in the "about" screen.

3. It was unclear as to which possums it was interested it.

4. The "record observations" section didn't work and just gives a blank screen, making the app impossible to use.

All in all very disappointing and very distressing too. This is an important project which deserves better.

Some glitches

Great idea but the possum section doesn’t allow observations and uploads.

Thanks. - Tracey ---- Hi again, thanks to some of the feedback we've had from people like yourself a new version of the app will be out shortly that rectifies the issues that our Victorian users were finding. Thanks for letting us know! - Tracey

Bug

Every time I try to save a flying-fox record the app quits and doesn’t save - there’s definitely a bug here... I absolutely love the idea behind it though!!!
