### 1/5 — Rubbish, get it?

*2022-02-17*

Too big to work as usable app on smart phones.

### 1/5 — App is Useless

*2022-02-01*

App is far too large and unreadable

### 1/5 — Too big!!

*2022-01-20*

Downloaded the App and the opening page is so large I am unable to read it or do anything with it. I hope the developers of this App read the reviews as it appears a lot of other users are suffering the same problem.

### 1/5 — Does not load

*2022-01-09*

Downloaded the App and it does not load properly, tried a couple of times but all I get is the first page that is to big for the screen of my iPhone  unable to do anything with it

### 1/5 — Absolutely useless

*2022-01-02*

Does not load, can not view it. Shows how modern FDC is

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2021-01-02*

App will not load correctly even after reinstalling several times . You may as well go in the website .

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. Don’t install!

*2020-04-15*

Entered postcode as instructed. Does not recognise and no other options to proceed or manual input.
Tried other Peterborough postcodes and they don’t work either.

Waste of time.

### 1/5 — No address

*2019-06-22*

Downloaded and installed asked for post code and couldn't find the address, no other options to in put so needs an update and manual option to input

### 1/5 — Bring back landscape

*2025-05-30*

It has totally changed from landscape to portrait and it’s harder for me to use as Portrait mode 

It was easier for me to view while being able to use it as Landscape mode 

Please please make it able to use as landscape
——————————

Update 20th November 

How long does it take to do a simple landscape update  , so i very much doubt they took the email seriously as just one update to use it as landscape  shouldn’t be that hard to  do
—————————————

Update 30th May 2025

Starting to crash,brown bin dates gone , still hating the use of portrait as landscape use is still needed 

I very much doubt they will update the app anymore as they seem to of gone silent 

Useless app now and will be uninstalling after this review as they seem to dev has literally been doing nothing for updates 

Guess will have to rely on the neighbourhood to see when brown bins are going out 


AVOID THE APP AT ALL COSTS AS THE APP ISN’T WORTH HAVING  ANYMORE

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2024-10-28*

Doesn’t even open and no feedback or improvement from developer. Pointless having it.

### 1/5 — App was helpful but now doesn’t work

*2024-09-10*

I’ve used this app for years, adding bin days to my iPhone calendar so I don’t miss them. It was perfectly working for all that time, thank you for that time it did. Since the last month or so it now loads but states “It doesn’t seem your allowing calendar access”. Everything my end is fine and the settings still show “Full access”. I’ve tried repeatedly to check/reset the setting, the phone, the app.. but everything is fine and always has been. The only thing that has changed is this recent fault with the app itself, incorrectly saying it hasn’t access (which is completely untrue as it DOES have FULL access and always has). This needs fixing so the app adds dates to calendar again like it did, currently almost useless sadly

### 1/5 — Fenland bins app

*2024-03-05*

Monday 4th March 2024. App came on and was loading all the time, deleted app and reset only to find my address (158) was not showing. Still cant download correctly.

### 1/5 — Not working! FIX

*2023-06-26*

Does not get past the loading page!

### 1/5 — Latest Update Completely Broke It

*2022-06-02*

After the latest update the app will not run at all. Initially it would open and just say 'loading' forever, and after deleting and reinstalling it the app is just 'searching for addresses' forever, never going further than that.

### 1/5 — Fenland Bin App

*2022-05-18*

Won’t open on my iPhone . It just shows a massive logo of the front page as the prospective is incorrect.

### 1/5 — Too big

*2022-03-25*

The Home Screen does not work at all very poor

### 4/5 — Works well. Room for improvement

*2020-09-18*

On the contrary to other reviews I was able to set my reminders up in seconds. Found my address instantly and added the reminders the my calendars. Would be good to have a link to the councils website if you had any queries about bins or other issues.

### 3/5 — Had (mostly) been working well

*2024-09-06*

I noticed the bin dates weren’t in my calendar anymore (iPhone) so opened the app to see a message about how my settings weren’t allowing the app to access calendar. Opened settings to see permissions were granted. Turned those off and on again. No change. A few days later briefly saw bin dates back on calendar. Then when I went to check which bin today - they were gone again. So deleted and downloaded app again. Same issue but now there isn’t even the option to attempt to link up with my calendar.
