### 2/5 — No option to load funds at end

*2026-03-04, version 4.13.4*

Went through the whole process of entering names and addresses, then I get to the end and it says I have insufficient funds with no option to load up or just pay the asked for price. I had to back all the way out, load up funds, then re enter everything.

Delivery arrived on time and safely, so there’s that.

### 1/5 — Eish!

*2025-11-11, version 4.13.2*

This app is terrible. Unfortunately the website isn’t much better. It is a poor reflection of a great service company.

### 1/5 — The app is not easy to use

*2025-11-06, version 4.13.2*

PUDO app was working better, I don’t understand why it was changed. I’m struggling to proceed with my booking cause it keeps on saying wrong email though the email is correct

### 1/5 — Why change something that worked?

*2025-10-27, version 4.13.2*

The app worked really perfectly and seamlessly when it was Pudo. Now really cumbersome. The search function to find a locker for example is nowhere. New app NOT an improvement.

### 1/5 — Pudo App

*2025-10-26, version 4.13.2*

What happend to the money in our wallets in the  Pudo App???

### 1/5 — New app

*2025-10-20, version 4.13.1*

The new app is so bad , i have no idea why you guys changed a perfectly functional app

### 1/5 — BROKEN

*2025-10-15, version 4.13.1*

This app is broken. Can not select a locker drop off point. Come on courier guy be better man!!!

### 2/5 — Terrible App

*2025-10-14, version 4.13.1*

Whoever did this app did a terrible job. Previous Pudo app was much better. Absolutely frustrating!!!

### 2/5 — Fix the app

*2025-10-14, version 4.13.1*

The app is terrible, it doesn’t allow me to save address. And it doesn’t save your details bec the amount of times I have to go back and the. Rewrite everything is super frustrating. I hate using this app. Also your prices keep going up. They more expensive on the app than what is advertised on the site

### 1/5 — Whoever approved this Pudo update clearly does not use it!!

*2025-10-13, version 4.13.1*

The new Pudo app update is an absolute train wreck. Nothing works properly. The old version was smooth and reliable, but this one feels like it was rushed out without any proper testing. I cant even sign in !

It is beyond frustrating when a service that used to make life easy suddenly becomes the problem. I rely on Pudo, but right now it causes more stress than convenience. Please stop trying to improve what was not broken. Either fix the bugs properly or roll back to the previous version.

### 2/5 — App needs serious work!

*2025-10-12, version 4.13.1*

I love courier guy and PUDO, use the services a lot! New app needs a lot of work, user flow isn’t great, can be easier to find collection lockers/kiosks, option for priority packages for door delivery, easier to check credit balance and top-up. Really what needs to be done is whoever is designing the app needs to use the app to send packages to understand the workflow. Come on courier guy, get your act together!

### 1/5 — Still a terrible app

*2025-10-11, version 4.13.1*

The app is so bad you’d swear the owner got one of their close relatives to develop it for pennies. At this point I just think they have no care for the user experience.

### 1/5 — Just keep getting worse

*2025-10-09, version 4.13.1*

Every time an update every time more terrible and harder to lock in. 
And customer service is a schlep and unhelpful

### 1/5 — Improvement needed

*2025-10-08, version 4.13.1*

Please employ a good UX and UI designer to improve your app. The product is so awesome (I love Pudo), but the user flows are bad. For example, if a user didn’t check their credit before hand and went through the flow to send a parcel, then they will only be notified of their credit at the end which means they need to tap back multiple times to find their hamburger menu and add credit. At that point the user needs to redo their order. Please add a direct link for the user to increase credit when they are ready to process it.

### 1/5 — Unable to top up money into the app

*2025-10-04, version 4.13.1*

The app has issues when it comes to toping up using bank it just says request expired in  less  than a second at least add an option for us to deposit money on our app by doing a deposit at the bank. This started after updating the app and I contacted corrier guy many times about the issue and now I am unable to use the app until it get resolved.

### 1/5 — Rebranding from Pudo to courier guy was done so very poorly

*2025-10-02, version 4.13.1*

The app is a nightmare. App keeps shutting down. Super glitchy. Only allows you to select a destination and not a drop off point location. I guess the days of Pudo are long behind us.

### 1/5 — Really frustrating app!

*2026-03-24, version 4.13.4*

The app drives me mad. Not user friendly at all. Crashes mid booking. Tedious and inconvenient!

### 1/5 — Very poor

*2026-02-18, version 4.13.4*

This app has become useless! Hangs at the final point elating you can use any locker. Save yourself the irritation of struggling. Log onto your PC or take it to a counter. Before the standard questions are asked.  The answer is Yes to all. I restarted the app, several time, there are funds available.

### 1/5 — bad app design

*2025-12-29, version 4.13.2*

whoever redesigned this app, or made the decision to change the way it works needs to be fired, or their place in the company needs to be reevaluated, this is a horrendous experience

### 1/5 — Nobody asked for a new app

*2025-12-17, version 4.13.2*

Ruined a perfectly good app. How can an update make something WORSE. It’s like the developers have no idea what good UI is.

### 1/5 — The app is needed

*2025-12-17, version 4.13.2*

But you can’t log in.

### 1/5 — Horrible upgrade

*2025-12-14, version 4.13.2*

Why change a good functional app to this. I can’t add the address, I can’t load funds! I loved to use this service and now I am forced to use other options. So sad!!! 
Please fix this mess!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-12-03, version 4.13.2*

Can’t get past registration process. Password, no matter how many times I tried, keeps showing invalid

### 1/5 — App don’t work

*2025-11-20, version 4.13.2*

This app isn’t working. It gives email address errors and I cannot book anything. Pointless App

### 1/5 — Can’t even log in

*2025-11-19, version 4.13.2*

Constant error notifications make in impossible to log in.

### 1/5 — Bad intentions

*2025-11-15, version 4.13.2*

It is quite obvious Courier Guy has all the intentions of letting Pudo sink.  Terrible service, terrible App.

### 5/5 — I wouldn’t exist without PUDO ❤️

*2022-01-11, version 4.2.4*

My small business wouldn’t exist without PUDO. You have changed the way people do business. Your delivery service is effen brilliant and I actually don’t know what I would do without you guys. So what if the app is slightly impractical. The service and super affordable cost far out ways the small impracticalities. So ignore the haters PUDO! I exist because of you and your top class service! I trust you like I trust a big brother! Mwah! Love you guys!

### 4/5 — Loading Funds

*2025-10-01, version 4.13.1*

I have being using this app for quite some time sending parcels up and down. The biggest flaw I find is that there is no option to load funds at the very last point of choosing accept to submit your parcel. Then the error, insufficient funds and you have to back, back, back - Load funds and start ALL OVER AGAIN…

### 4/5 — Creating a flexible cheap accessible logistics for everyone

*2024-08-24, version 4.7.2*

I have sent many packages back and forth allowing me to fully take advantage of Facebook market place across South Africa with really low costs and good service. The app could be improved slightly with the ability to load contacts from contact list, session memory and a list of previously used addresses but on the whole great service.

### 3/5 — App crash on completion of top-up that was initiated during parcel 📦 booking process. IOS 18 IPHONE

*2026-03-02, version 4.13.4*

Is there anything i can do to help get this fixed?  

Bonus points: if you can make the whole field tappable for when you want to type in the amount of money to add to wallet. 

Like 👍 the ability to pay with apple pay using peach payments

### 3/5 — App crushes

*2026-02-11, version 4.13.4*

App crushes after populating customer details

### 3/5 — Dimensions

*2026-01-16, version 4.13.4*

Please don’t just put a warning/no entery sign at the dimensions field, how are you supposed to know what is wrong if it just gives a red warning sign with no explanation

### 3/5 — Unable to load money

*2026-01-16, version 4.13.4*

With this new update, I am unable to load money into my account. This happening on both the iOS App & the website.

### 3/5 — So far, so good. Just one thing

*2024-04-20, version 4.7.0*

I have been using PUDO for a while now, and it has become the best thing for my small business. The process is easy and sometimes my customers receive their parcels on the same day which is really awesome for business. 

One thing I need you to look at having an address book for recipient. If not an address book, a function that will allow previously used addressees to pop up. This will save us a lot of time.

### 3/5 — Good but can improve

*2021-07-31, version 4.0*

I use the app daily, sometimes multiple times a day. Overall the app is fairly easy to use and quite user friendly. I just have some small issues that would be easy to fix I think.
1. Logging in every time I open the app gets quite annoying, especially considering how often I use the app
2. It would be way easier to have my payment details saved on the app so that I don’t have to add them in every time I want to top up
3. When I get the SMS with the locker pin details it would be much better to also receiver the waybill number in the sms. This is to make sure I don’t accidentally put the wrong parcel in the locker

### 3/5 — Room for Improvement

*2020-12-13, version 3.5*

as a small business owner, i’ve been so happy for this part of running the business to have been made simple.  it’s easy to use and effective. 

there’s only a few places i’d wish to see improvements: 
> i hate having to log in every single time i go into the app. 
> when i top up my credit, after the payment is complete the app freezes so i have to close it and reopen it (and relog in) to then go forward with my booking. 
> having smaller increments / a way to choose for myself how much money i want to put into my credit would be awesome! i usually use the R50 locker option but once needed to use the R60 option and now i have R40 in my credit i can’t use unless i have another 4 orders that require the R60 locker (which is highly unlikely - i sell jewelry) 
> i wish there was a database that could hold all of the recipient’s info so that whenever i have a repeat customer i don’t have to manually type out all of their information again. 
> the address field falls short. there’s only room for a street number, name and suburb. i often have customers who live in complexes or apartments and i have no idea how to enter all that information into the fields required. 
> the only two status updates on packages are “customer deposited” and “courier collected”. if there was just one more to say “delivered” i’d be happy. 
> there should be a help tab in the app / contact details clearly marked. i had to go looking for an email address to email which really isn’t convenient when i urgently require assistance. 

i know it seems like a lot but otherwise i’m very happy. i wouldn’t use anyone else :)
