Please just fix itttt ### 1/5 — PITA *2022-11-14, version 6* Most of time does not work. Incompatible with Apple devices. ### 1/5 — An embarrassment for Colombia *2022-10-05, version 6* My mom is a Colombian citizen and I had to use this app recently to help her generate a check-mig to travel back to Bogota. The app is just a browser for the website and the website is plagued with bugs. It was impossible to move past the flight information because the flight number (no letters included) was not in their database. Since all fields are mandatory there was no way to proceed. Understandably this generate quite a bit of stress in preparation for the trip. If anything this app serves to highlight the bureaucratic nature of the Colombian government. Just skip downloading this and use the website. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all *2022-09-30, version 6* This is a horrible app that doesn’t work at all! You make us download and input our info but it doesn’t go beyond the first page so why do we need it if it doesn’t work? ### 1/5 — Bad app *2022-09-23, version 6* This App has a lot of problems and is buggy. Besides it not working well and difficult to use, if you are from the United States you need to look under the countries that start with a E! It is their Spanish version of the United States. All the other countries are spelled out the English way. Almost didn’t get on the plane to Colombia because of it. Luckily a AA gate agent working it out. ### 1/5 — The worst. 1/2 a star. *2022-09-10, version 6* This has to be the worst apps of all apps. I could bet someone was given tons of $ to create app, and that person gave their 12 year old son/daughter a small portion of the $ to create it as a school project. ### 1/5 — The app won’t even load for me *2022-08-28, version 6* What type of garbage is this? When I launch the app, it simply remains on a white screen. Seriously, how could the Colombian government have approved this trash. ### 1/5 — Worst app *2022-07-21, version 6* Possibly the worst app ever for something that is necessary to enter the country. No instructions. No ability to go back a page. ### 1/5 — Cannot submit form! *2022-06-21, version 6* Where do I get help if the form could not be submitted. Tried millions of times on different devices and browser. Does JFK airport provide hard copy to fill in? ### 1/5 — Worst App *2022-04-20, version 6* How can Colombia’s government require visitors to fill out immigration documents on an app that doesn’t work? It’s ridiculous. Way too much stress and complicated. Either make sure the app works, or use paper documents as usual. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-03-18, version 6* It doesn't work and is preventing people from visiting Colombia No help ### 1/5 — Possibly the WORST APP EVER! *2022-03-07, version 6* This app does not work nor does the web site. You’ll enter all of your data, answer all of the questions and get to the end only to be left with no way to continue, no email, nothing! Out of five attempts and 45 minutes wasted it may possibly work. Again, app or web site. I live in Colombia and have used Check-Mig s’more than 100 times … it is absolutely terrible. Embarrassingly bad. ☹️ ### 1/5 — Worse ever seen *2022-03-06, version 6* Don’t work ### 1/5 — Does not work. Unable to travel to colombia *2022-02-21, version 6* I can’t believe a whole country is unable to have contingency measure when their app does not work . They didn’t let me travel because the app and the website to submit the questionnaire does not work . No way of a paper questionnaire. It is unacceptable. And this app shouldn’t even be allowed to be in the AppStore . It doesn’t provide any value . ### 1/5 — Does not work- making people miss flights *2022-01-10, version 6* I have tried filling this out hundreds of times but it does not work. Please do something about it or use paper form as backup. Yet they will not accept there is a flaw in this app at airports ### 1/5 — Trash! Does not work! *2022-01-07, version 6* Drop downs don’t work, entry’s don’t stay. It doesn’t even have a drop down the USA! The push buttons don’t work. Nothing works! ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2022-01-07, version 6* I missed my flight because this stupid app didn’t let me register ### 1/5 — It does NOT work *2021-12-21, version 6* This app or their check mig website does not work. It’ll let me fill out everything abs when I try to send in my registration, it gives me an error. I have tried with different websites, different devices and it still does not work. There’s no way to contact them and explain the situation. Very frustrating ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The app and webpage doesn’t work *2023-03-01, version 6* This is literally so frustrating it doesn’t let you continue after you put the information of your flight! Waste of time been trying for hours. We don’t have time for this is always a nightmare everytime I try to go to Colombia. Siempre que trato de usar este app no da información del vuelo y no deja continuar! Se toman horas para poder hacer el registro no deja diligenciar los datos. Que dolor de cabeza. ### 1/5 — This app is a blemish on Colombia’s reputation. *2023-02-11, version 6* Please hire competent programmers to do it correctly. It discourages tourism in a country that should be promoting tourism. ### 1/5 — Worst App Ever developed *2023-02-08, version 6* This is the worst app ever created. Who is responsible?! ### 1/5 — Waste of time and money *2023-02-03, version 6* App is trash. Charged me more than what was shown when entering my cc ($104 entry and $104 departure). Was never asked for the form. Money grab. ### 1/5 — Nonfunctional *2023-02-03, version 6* To call it an application would be generous when it is barely a web app, regardless it doesn’t function or do what it’s supposed to ### 1/5 — No sirve *2023-01-24, version 6* Este app no sirve Quítenlo o arréglenlo ### 1/5 — Useless application *2023-01-21, version 6* This application is useless, it won’t allow me to select the kind of document I am using to leave Colombia. Very incompetent developers, totally useless ### 1/5 — Absolute piece of non-functioning garbage! *2023-01-08, version 6* What is amazing to me is NOT that the app, nor the Check-MiG web site are terrible and do not work; but rather the fact that someone in the Colombian government approved this for use AND continues to require it. Memo to Colombian migración: CHECK-MIG DOES NOT WORK! Please, someone in a position of power get on your phone, iPad, laptop, … and try to complete the form. As another suggestion, our country is called the United States of America. It is a proper name, which means translating it is NOT correct. Your dropdown menus should not show “Estados Unidos”. How do you guys like it when extranjeros write Columbia, rather than Colombia? ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-12-18, version 6* This is really the worst app for migration. We had to try more than 5 times to get the pre registration done. You should be able to create an account and have all your information saved. There is no login to access the information after. It is our first time to Colombia and want to have a stress free experience, not sure about this process. ### 1/5 — Check Mig Colombia migración *2022-12-15, version 6* This a horrible app. Will only work with phone. No computers or IPads. ## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This app DOES WORK *2022-04-30, version 6* When this was first implemented two years ago on the web, it was touch and go. I ran into a lot of bugs that eventually got worked out. And it seems that those behind the check Mig website and app made efforts to make it work and it does. The problem now is that under the English your nationality pull down menu is in Spanish. Rather that saying US or US Citizen, it says Estados Unidos. And since it is so easy to make mistakes maybe the biggest reasons why the site or the app may ‘not work’ ### 3/5 — How to finish the application *2021-02-07, version Versión 5* The app is pretty bad. I used an iPhone. When you select the type of transportation you’re using you’ll probably select comercial air. The problem with that is that the app bugs out and doesn’t let you advance. Hit the back button and select private then hit next. Then hit the back button again and select commercial air. You’ll be able to bypass that option now. From there, everything was pretty smooth. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
