Would like to know who the abstentions are, and why if known. Not sure why the Pie Chart segment has one or two arcs when tapped? ### 2/5 — Stopped working *2023-09-07, version 1.15* Stopped working on my phone for some reason . ### 3/5 — Why no abstentions? *2019-10-23, version 1.15* I think the app is a very good way to see how my MP votes on issues and is a valuable addition to democracy but i do not understand why it does not show the members who abstain on issues. There is also a bit of a delay in the information coming to the app. A step in the right direction but could be better. ### 2/5 — Needs updating *2019-10-17, version 1.15* Was a great app now you can see the devision but not how each member voted ### 2/5 — Ok *2019-09-11, version 1.15* Needs an update. Can’t see any of the results on my iPhone XR. ### 1/5 — App failing to show MPS voting results *2019-09-05, version 1.15* This app gives the overall results of the votes but no longer gives a break down on individual mp votes. Interesting it seems any vote connected to leaving the European Union no longer gives a breakdown of MP votes. Conspiracy or not? ### 3/5 — Has potential *2019-09-04, version 1.15* I am using the iPhone version; the app loads up quickly, and I was pleased by the speed with which it located my local MP and displayed his voting record. However, when I click on one of the votes seeking more information, I get a blank frame, with the “working on it” rotating icon. I have tried shutting the app down and restarting, but the same thing happened. I don’t think I am doing something daft; it looks as if it needs a bit more work. ### 1/5 — Hopeless *2019-05-23, version 1.15* MP’s don’t scroll, Division Details don’t work. Just a bad app at the moment. ### 3/5 — Vital Info missing *2019-04-13, version 1.15* It should display information about what the new motions are ### 3/5 — Lacking in detail *2019-03-28, version 1.15* Doesn't give you any info on what the vote is, just the official motion name which leaves you heading to Google. Also can't search MP by area. Would be great to see these improvements. Deleted it as there are better, clearer sources of info. Nice idea and basic layout though. ### 1/5 — Colour *2019-03-27, version 1.15* At least give a helicopter view of the amendment! ### 2/5 — Needs updating *2019-03-27, version 1.15* The app still has a “letterbox” view on newer iPhones. As other reviews say, it needs refining with how you can view voting records. However, in general it is a useful app to easily see how your MP is voting. ### 3/5 — This could be really good but...... *2019-03-14, version 1.15* ...odd votes don’t appear within 20 mins; as though they’re being held back as subsequent votes appear. ...individual MP’s votes (Member View) don’t always agree with the votes shown in a particular motion. ...individual MP’s votes frequently pick up incorrect dates and sometimes show AYE when the voted NO and vice versa. Theses bugs need to be addressed because, as it stands, you can’t trust the data shown. ### 2/5 — Needs major improvements *2019-03-13, version 1.15* You need to be able to search by mp areas instead of just names Needs information of what they are voting on. Must be easier to see votes by party ### 3/5 — Voting record can’t be relied upon *2019-03-11, version 1.15* I agree with Skyedog123 - display of one Member’s voting record is unreliable. It appears to be chronological, but on scrolling down I find it jumping from 3 months ago back to the present time. On one occasion I found it changed its mind as to how the MP had voted, when displaying it for the 2nd time. But voting record is the purpose of the app! ### 2/5 — Needs descriptions *2019-02-02, version 1.15* Great idea but the votes need descriptions - the titles mean very little to people. Tell us what MPs were actually voting on! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Data missing *2025-01-14, version 1.15* Good app in principle but my MPs votes are missing for the last month. ### 1/5 — Useless *2024-11-29, version 1.15* This app is a total waste of time can’t even give it one star it’s that bad can’t access my local mp total waste of space ### 1/5 — Very Poor App *2023-05-26, version 1.15* Very poor app that’s currently not working. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore *2020-12-01, version 1.15* Opens then crashes ### 1/5 — Week out of date *2020-10-06, version 1.15* This is now being updated a week late. It’s weird. ### 1/5 — BROKE *2020-09-25, version 1.15* Don’t work anymore ### 1/5 — Useless *2020-09-25, version 1.15* Stopped working can see list of MPs but no votes showin. ### 1/5 — Please fix this app *2019-10-19, version 1.15* Doesn’t show vote breakdowns anymore. Tried updating and reinstalling.....no joy. ### 1/5 — No Division Details *2019-09-15, version 1.15* 50% of this apps functionality is the division details. I’ve installed this recently and never seen anything but a blank screen in Division Details. So for now, only one star ### 1/5 — Commons Votes app *2019-09-10, version 1.15* No longer works. Stopped showing any information, so now having to use the website instead. Shame as used to be a useful app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — No faults *2019-05-14, version 1.15* Great app - recently have encountered a few slight issues but nothing that isn’t fixable - would highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Great app, still room to improve *2017-11-15, version 1.15* Would really like an update to allow you to get push notifications when a vote is had ### 5/5 — Useful *2017-07-21, version 1.15* Useful app for seeing HoC votes however it would be useful to see MPs who didn't vote/abstained ### 5/5 — Excellent *2016-11-08, version 1.15* Easy to use to view division results. Love the track your MP feature. Great work! ### 5/5 — Very interesting *2016-11-07, version 1.11* Good app, thanks. I would like an overview of the motions that have been voted upon. I am unable to remember every detail. It would make the info more interesting. ### 4/5 — Useful App *2020-01-22, version 1.15* More details on voting records and a list of abstentions on individual votes would be helpful. Also geographical representations of MP’s seats interfaced with results would be intriguing. ### 4/5 — Could be improved *2019-03-14, version 1.15* Would be better if you could search by members name so you can see what members have voted historically, other than that seems good. ### 4/5 — Essential unbiased news, but ... *2018-07-19, version 1.15* It would be great to drill into the text of the amendment, etc. "New clause 4" doesn't mean anything to me, unless I then browse Hansard or legislation.gov.uk. Just a one paragraph summary. Also to see who didn't vote. ### 4/5 — Very Useful App For Study of Political Voting *2016-12-07, version 1.15* This app does an effective and timely job of reporting voting statistics broken down by vote and Party. The latest voting tonight (7/12/16) appeared very soon after the vote itself. It would be even more useful, and worthy of 5 stars, if it had a means of exporting text in a more condensed columnar format which could be imported or pasted into other applications such as a spreadsheet or social media. ### 4/5 — An amazing start *2016-11-02, version 1.11* The app is an amazing start, it is really good to be able to see how PM's have voted so easily! Having this information to hand will be really important when deciding who to vote for in local elections! However, it would be helpful if more information was given on each motion. As some are unclear what was voted on just by the brief tittle. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
