No access to the account

I have been a member since the beginning of this group. Now I was forced to download a new app, and the app does not work. I cannot log into my account. I have to create a new password each time to access the site.. The creator of this app does not respond to anybody’s request. I would not recommend joining this group since there is no help to access data., enter data, etc. I’ve been a member since the beginning of this group, and the old app actually worked very well.

It wasn’t broken, why fix it?

I also thought the new APP was difficult. But after working with the programme for perhaps an hour or so with some help from a younger follow’ (in his fifties) it all fell into place, now I will say its a good improvement. Especially going back through the historic data. What did throw me off originally was the highlighted instructions on a pad.

I have been reporting rain data since 1980 (with NOAA back then and probably before you were born). You made reporting far more complicated and you discourage volunteers like me, especially at my age. I have never had to use my username, password and email address. Besides your instruction page is far to fast for me. Please simplify before our next rain. Until then I’ll just keep my rain record on paper.

Not for the field!

Nice try, but I don’t need all the extras at the expense of ease of use for something I would just like to use in the field. I just assume use the older version until it no longer works. After that I’ll just use a piece of paper and upload the precip data when I access a real computer. MA-BE-31

awkward

I keep losing data. Easier to stick to the desktop version

Definitely

I received a message telling me to upgrade to this new version . So I did. But the me. Person is harder to use. The graphics are nicer but it is harder to make daily precipitation reports. Why do you make it harder for volunteers to do simple tasks? I will try it for a few days but I am inclined to drop out of the program. MI-OK-107

Much improved

The mobile app has caught up tomCoCoRaHS web app.

At Last!

Nicely designed app. Now I can enter my data while standing next to the rain gauge.
