### 1/5 — 0 Stars

*2025-03-03, version 2.21.01*

If i could give this god awful app a 0 star review i would. Horrible layout, 0 app support & they don’t even update it, constantly crashes, poor quality on any phone newer than an iphone 11. Honestly very disappointing for something that’s mandatory in order to complete an apprenticeship.

### 1/5 — No improvement

*2023-12-31, version 2.21.01*

When I did my first apprenticeship that was completed in 2012 the system was about ticking boxes & not actually teaching the skills required.
It was a hassle on paper but at least you only had to fill a card out once & it would be processed even if slow. 

Now I’m doing my 2nd apprenticeship in 2023 the only change is it’s digital. Still cumbersome, focusing on box ticking than actually reporting & zero accountability for bosses or the TAFE or Government Departments.

### 1/5 — If there was lower then 1 star, I’d give it

*2022-10-19, version 2.21.01*

This app is terrible. 
I’d put up with the clunkiness of use if the app actually uploaded the cards I’d submitted. 
I complete a whole card only for the app to crash on submission and the card to not be uploaded with no option to retry. This makes it extremely difficult to keep up with profiling as I don’t always have a computer on hand. 
FIX THE APP!

### 1/5 — Unfit for use

*2022-09-23, version 2.21.01*

This app is so badly designed and full of faults it should be removed from the App Store. 
If you are starting your apprenticeship use the Webb page not the app.

### 1/5 — Horrible to use

*2022-02-21, version 2.21.01*

App crashed. Lost all my cards. Hardly ever downloaded cards. Would never actually submit cards. All apprentices just use paper. Better than dealing with constant issues…

### 1/5 — Slow and useless

*2022-02-08, version 2.21.01*

Keeps crashing, really slow and won’t display full screen on iPad, it’s the same size as a phone screen

### 1/5 — This is a terrible app

*2021-08-23, version 2.21.01*

This app is absolute trash, the fact that anyone thinks this is a good idea for a business or for education makes me cry. This app should be illegal!

### 1/5 — Seriously?

*2021-07-29, version 2.21.01*

Reading a review from 2 years ago - app still has same issues. App crashes on saving cards. How this hasn’t been fixed after 2 years is ridiculous. It is a compulsory requirement to fill out these cards as part of our apprenticeship but this makes it impossible.

### 1/5 — Worst app in store

*2021-07-22, version 2.21.01*

Terrible app Seeing as this is vital for people’s careers to actually complete and get a license it’s a absolute joke that the Australia government doesn’t do more to police these lazy scum of the earth workers at eprofiling . It’s like these bone headed muppets got a government contract and then took a decade vacation and left no one to actually run the software properly . Bug reports don’t help . No answer to emails . Basically the most unprofessional company .

### 3/5 — Apprentice

*2021-05-08, version 2.21.01*

The platform is not very user friendly, mobile friendly and outdated. 
I find I am constantly clicking on the question mark information box rather than ticking the box I need to select. 
Whilst this system goes into more depth than Skills-Tracker it does not give an option to attatch photos. 
There is deffinantely room for improvement and it has the potential to be the better choice but as it stands I would prefer to use skills tracker
