### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on newer iphones

*2021-01-05, version 3.9.6*

I finally got to to download and then it wouldn’t open so I deleted it. I have an iPhone 12 pro

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iOS 14?

*2021-01-03, version 3.9.6*

Used to work but isn’t anymore. Please update app.

### 1/5 — Won’t Even Open Anymore

*2021-01-02, version 3.9.6*

This app really needs an update, there’s no use downloading cause it won’t open on new apple devices, it opens and then crashes immediately. Would be very useful if it worked, when I did use it a year ago it was helpful to be able to pay bills and service requests from an app

### 1/5 — App needs work

*2021-01-02, version 3.9.6*

App needs updated will open then close automatically, would use more if this worked

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2020-12-31, version 3.9.6*

I downloaded the app and try to open it and it will not open so how am I suppose to put in a service request if the app do not open

### 1/5 — Crashes immediately

*2020-12-31, version 3.9.6*

App closes itself as soon as tapped.

### 1/5 — Was Good Now Crashes On Loading

*2020-12-26, version 3.9.6*

This app was good for paying my water bills. Somewhere in Nov 2020 however, app started to immediately crash every single time. Complained to Onecall admins, said they were looking into it, but no updates yet.  Admins have to make sure it works with every iOS release.

### 1/5 — crashes immediately on startup, useless

*2020-12-15, version 3.9.6*

ipad pro 11, ios 14.2

### 1/5 — This is simply a joke - it doesn’t even open

*2020-12-11, version 3.9.6*

This is simply a joke - it doesn’t even open

### 1/5 — app won’t open

*2020-12-05, version 3.9.6*

Just downloaded the app. When I click on the icon, the app flashes open and then immediately closes I am unable to access the app.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-12-04, version 3.9.6*

Wont let me submit a ticket. Please update/fix the app

### 1/5 — Seems to no longer work

*2020-12-04, version 3.9.6*

I have iPhone 12 Mini, screen size is too large for the Mini, and appears so for the other iPhone12’s

Tried to use on iPad Mini 5, opens & closes itself.

What gives?  This was working last time I used it, albeit on a iPhone6

### 1/5 — App Crashes

*2020-12-04, version 3.9.6*

Crashes every time I try to open it or login. I’ve tried reinstalling it. Come on, Durham! Even the One Call website is challenging to use.

### 1/5 — App Issues

*2020-11-29, version 3.9.6*

This App will not let me open it, it closes as soon as it open SMH

### 1/5 — crashes upon opening

*2020-11-14, version 3.9.6*

can’t even start using the app cuz it crashes immediately after opening.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2020-11-09, version 3.9.6*

The app crashes every time I try to log in. When it worked as intended several years ago, it was pretty useful, but at this point it’s fairly useless since it is updated so infrequently.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can't pay water bill

*2026-05-03, version 4.3.3*

App keeps failing and show blank page

### 1/5 — No updates in 3 years

*2026-03-09, version 4.3.3*

Has never worked well. Just like Durham city council

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2025-11-20, version 4.3.3*

You can sign in to this beautiful new app and that’s about it. I go to make a payment and nothing populates. Swing and a huge miss again for Durham

### 1/5 — City doesn’t respond at

*2024-09-03, version 4.3.3*

Don’t waste your time with this app - the city will either ignore or close your requests, regardless of whether the task has been completed or even responded to. 

The developer did a decent job, but the city doesn’t actually utilize and respond the reports correctly, so it’s not worth the hassle.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2022-03-20, version 4.2.1*

Always was a buggy app, but now it does not work at all.

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2022-02-01, version 4.2.1*

More frustrating than helpful.

### 1/5 — No working anymore

*2021-01-12, version 3.9.6*

Crash immediately once open

### 1/5 — Why bother?

*2021-01-12, version 3.9.6*

App won’t load on even an iPhone 6 or 7...another waste of taxpayer money.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-01-12, version 3.9.6*

Hasn’t been updated in 3 years, crashes immediately when opened.

### 1/5 — Non-functional - Needs Updating

*2021-01-07, version 3.9.6*

Ever since my iPhone updated to the new software, this app crashes when I try to login and now won’t even launch or open on my phone.

This app is very important for citizens to submit service requests and complaints to help improve our City.

I understand it takes time and money to update and fix, but Durham is really dropping the ball on this one.

Without the app, submitting service requests via the OneCall website or via phone is more cumbersome and doesn’t allow citizens to upload photos. 

This needs to be fixed!

### 5/5 — Works on my phone

*2024-03-29, version 4.3.3*

I don't know if they've updated the app since the last people reviewed it or what, but it seems to be launching and working just fine on my iPhone 13 Pro Max running iOS 17.4.1. I'd recommend that people considering the app try downloading it and running it to see if it works on their phones rather than just taking the App Store reviews as being applicable to their situation.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2022-10-12, version 4.3.3*

Makes it so easy to snap a photo and upload trash and debris pickup which is a big problem in our neighborhood. I’m recommending to some friends in the neighborhood who make one call requests!

### 4/5 — Works Well

*2022-05-05, version 4.2.1*

I have not used this app in over a year. It locked up several times. Deleting it and reinstalling fixed the problem.

### 2/5 — It worked. But not satisfactory.

*2021-10-03, version 4.2.1*

I reported two requests. One was just reporting a traffic sign that needed replacing. No problem. App worked as designed. 

I also made an “other” request. The customer service rep responded by message saying it wasn’t the City of Durham’s responsibility, and immediately closed the case. I then tried to comment back asking for resources. But I believe that since the case was marked as closed, my issue was not seen again. So I am either being ignored by the app, or a customer service rep has seen my comment and chosen to ignore me for the last 3 weeks.  Either way, the app provides no way for follow-up on a connected case. I would recommend cases be reopened if a client responds to a claim.

### 2/5 — Won’t save your info

*2019-05-27, version 3.9.6*

Annoying that you have to log in each time to pay your bill/see your statement
