### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2025-10-19*

App is always playing up or crashing . Making it hard to do your job.

### 1/5 — Very Bad

*2025-03-14*

One of the slowest apps I've ever seen, it crashes all the time. Qantas should be ashamed of themselves; they can’t even fix the app properly.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2024-11-24*

Crashes all the time kicks you out won’t let log back in you lose a lot of money waiting time, airline doesn’t care about the turning time for other companies

Did you fix the issue with your Direct App ?
I had the same problem and solved it by going to -
- phone settings 
- press on your profile photo 
- scroll up till you see your Name&phone- press that.
If you have I-cloud turn it off.

Now go back to your App Store 
Search Dock direct -
It should now appear with an update next to it - press that 

Now it should work?

Also if you select a client but can’t see the available awbs keep tapping on the top blue bar that shows a small keyboard - shipments should appear.

Hope that works mate.👍
