User reviews

App Needs Update

The app often logs users out frequently for no reason. Also, it lags and notes entered often do not appear. After selecting the type of observation, it does not take users back to options ending up logging in and out which is time consuming.

Does not work

When I open the application it does not move beyond the eel come screen.
Really disappointing for such a large company and so many end users.

Crashed

Got one observation done and it crashes. Defeated it and tried to reinstall but doesn’t seem to want to play

Screen Orientation

The app will not orient the screen to landscape to make the keyboard useful on the iPad.

Landscape

Limiting the app to portrait on the iPhone could be plausible, but to limit this on the iPad is preposterous. Please fix with an update as quickly as possible.
