### 1/5 — Awful

*2024-11-21, version 2.31*

Not even a simple password reset works

### 1/5 — Lots of bugs and no one to squash them

*2024-10-15, version 2.29*

This app has potential, but it appears that the developer is not interested in addressing the bugs that result in constant crashes.

### 1/5 — App down for weeks

*2024-10-05, version 2.28*

Can you provide an update?
This app has been down for weeks

### 1/5 — One problem after another

*2024-09-15, version 2.27*

Terrible app constant issues cant reset passwords

### 1/5 — Utter rubbish1

*2024-09-08, version 2.26*

As everyone else says - can’t log in.  Asking for a username. But none of the info I have provided for the website works.  Not even got to password yet…

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-08-27, version 2.26*

Worst app- doesn’t even work

### 1/5 — Broken Login API

*2024-07-29, version 2.26*

Please update the interface to allow member logins and password resets. Currently cannot use this app without this function.

### 1/5 — Can’t login

*2024-07-14, version 2.26*

Can’t login - useless

### 1/5 — It’s a lemon!

*2023-11-26, version 2.26*

Can access the web portal, but the app doesn’t recognise my username so it’s completely useless. Strata managers need to be careful pushing lot owners onto these sorts of things if they simply don’t work. Doesn’t inspire even a little extra speck of confidence in an industry where Strata owner-occupiers are often treated as hapless cash cows. At the very least could you offer a free app that actually works, you think??

### 1/5 — Useless system

*2023-08-18, version 2.25*

This has to be the worst designed app and website ever. There is no way to sign up as a new user to receive or pay levies. Chat bot doesn’t work. Stumped. Body corporate’s - I urge you to steer clear.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-08-04, version 2.25*

I put the password and I can go in.Is really bad app.

### 1/5 — Terrible app, inconsistent functionality

*2023-06-20, version 2.25*

Our strata company uses this terrible app despite owner complaints. To name a few problems

1. Inconsistencies logging in, refuses some users for no discernible reason. Randomly stops users from logging in
2. Assigning roles to users is ridiculously complex and error prone
3. Inconsistencies in the community portal functions - posts show up on desktop but not mobile. Ability edit or delete in some versions and not others. Notifications don’t send to certain users regardless of settings applied
4. Inconsistent functionality of EC functions and other financial sections between app and desktop

The whole thing is a mess and should be scrapped and started over. It’s been years now and both the app and desktop are still junk with the same inconsistencies and bugs.

### 1/5 — Shockingly bad

*2023-04-23, version 2.25*

Doesn’t work and always crashes. Just dreadful.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-04-23, version 2.25*

If I could give it zero stars I would. Useless app. Won’t open, just hovers and nothing like going in on the browser. Ugly, useless and a waste of time. I suggest someone looks at this app and do some major updates.
Whoever is responsible for the running of this app needs to be fired.  Deleted and reinstalled it but still won’t open, it just hovers endlessly.  Zero rating.

### 1/5 — Login or Register?

*2023-04-16, version 2.25*

This is usual for most sites/portals/hubs ect…. How can I put in my email and password when there is no provision to register in the first place. 
Major fail !!!!

### 1/5 — Garbage app, constant crashes

*2023-02-20, version 2.25*

Crashes the app whenever I try to filter the levy

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-04-29, version 2.40*

I’ve been using this app for about a year with very few issues and then randomly it decided to log me out and I can’t get back! Ive tried to change passwords, deleted & reinstalled the app etc and it won’t work!!! After reading the reviews here I see it’s a common issue!!

### 1/5 — Can’t login anymore

*2025-12-10, version 2.39*

Not sure which update has upset what, but no longer able to log in, it keep saying incorrect username or password. Tried reset the password and it works on web version, just not app…..

### 1/5 — Keep away warning

*2025-06-20, version 2.35*

Big on sale without support. Half way features. Frustrated user. Wish didn’t have to use it. If I could will give 0/5 stars.

### 1/5 — Instantly logs me out every time

*2025-04-23, version 2.33*

Every time I’m in this app and click on ‘community wall’ to read notices and body corporate minutes it instantly logs me out 🙃

### 1/5 — Avoid if possible.

*2025-04-08, version 2.33*

A very neglected app. Developers don’t respond to email or interested in any feedback. It’s a burden to users that are stuck having to use it. Not happy.

### 1/5 — Security Flaw

*2025-03-05, version 2.33*

After the users login credentials have been entered once they never need to log in again, either after closing down the app and even after re-booting the iPhone. Before rebooting the iPhone I deleted the saved credentials. 
I had to delete the app and reinstall it to get it to ask me for login credentials. A serious fault.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-01-31, version 2.32*

Tried to check levy from previous year and app shuts down

### 1/5 — Worst app I’ve EVER been forced to use.

*2025-01-15, version 2.32*

No support. The forgotten password feature just sends you around in circles. Let’s see what a Judge says in the Court of Arbitration when he finds out that lot owners have been trying to pay body corporate fees but aren’t able to and are then having fines levied against their lot.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2024-11-27, version 2.32*

I don’t know which bugs have been fixed but now the app crashes every time I try to open the community wall function. And it appears to have given my strata managing agent an excuse not to answer any questions.

### 1/5 — Why? Why? Why?

*2024-11-23, version 2.32*

does this exist? It does not work, even after numerous 'bug fixes'.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2018-10-29, version 2.0*

Use app to use and great info available for Strata owners

### 5/5 — Very easy to use

*2018-08-28, version 1.6*

Finally I can access my Body corporate information on my iPad!

### 3/5 — Fine b4

*2024-09-14, version 2.27*

The app was fine b4 can open no problem now having problems to open why ???

### 3/5 — Yay no more password change required

*2020-05-30, version 2.13*

They have finally fixed the odd requirement to change your password on first sign in to the app.  Thank Goodness.

Still waiting on Landscape mode.

### 2/5 — Waste of time

*2024-07-06, version 2.26*

This app is useless, there is no support, it has been down for ages and it just says to retry, no response from anybody with what the issue is.. don’t waste your time with it

### 2/5 — No support. No direct debit or PayTo

*2023-08-02, version 2.25*

The app has potential but is only half realised. There’s no support for it. OC’s considering it should be aware that it over promises and under delivers.

### 2/5 — Has some issues

*2023-01-12, version 2.25*

Whenever I try to filter the levy ledger, the app crashes.

### 2/5 — Can’t get support

*2022-04-08, version 2.25*

We have this app through our body corporate which is used for all lot owners. The community wall function where are able to post comments does not function. Our body corporate claims they are working on implementing this as though it’s their app. I tried contacting the developer and there is a massive amount of information and forms you have to filling out to contact them. They obviously don’t want to support their product.

### 2/5 — not for ipad

*2021-05-14, version 2.24*

app doesn’t rotate on ipad so trying to use with keyboard is pointless, it seems to be about 10 generations behind

### 2/5 — Passcode setup error

*2020-08-11, version 2.15*

When setting up passcode for the first time, a single press on 0 enters two 0’s. This continues to happen when logging in later. Tried to submit feedback via the app, but get an error saying feedback couldn’t be submitted. Otherwise should hopefully be handy for things like voting papers etc.
