### 2/5 — Problems

*2026-06-23*

Always log me out and always have problems with packages information reappearing after been closed and out of the system, this app needs so much work with the server- now is not sync on apple devices

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! And we apologize for the inconvenience. Recently we fixed the issue where packages reappeared after being closed.

### 2/5 — Unreliable

*2026-05-28*

Glitchy, buggy, lack of features compared to the website, etc. the only thing useful is that it is a portable version. I really expect more for such an expensive product.

### 2/5 — Problems

*2026-02-13*

Always log me out and always have problems entering information, this app needs so much work with the server

### 2/5 — out of residence

*2026-01-06, version 3.16.11*

The Out of Residence keeps disappearing and I have to reinstall the app every day.

### 2/5 — Fix your app. People use this for work. Not by choice.

*2025-12-03*

Won’t let me log in. And when it finally does the app constantly crashes.

### 2/5 — Laziest devs in the biz!

*2025-09-30*

I really don’t understand how this app can be consistently so bad. iOS 26 beta has been out for so long but you release this buggy mess with a glitched icon? Also stuff isn’t syncing correctly as usual. Sad.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2025-07-11*

The App and Desktop site was doing just fine before these pointless updates. Now the app will never synch and the desktop will glitch out every other hour. Stop fixing things that aren’t broken.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We’ve been monitoring sync issues closely and this issue should be fixed when you update the app to latest version.

### 1/5 — Believe the reviews - terrible

*2025-07-08*

App has had issues syncing for weeks. Insane that we rely on this to get our job done but we can’t because this dev team can’t get it together.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — If I could rate it zero stars I would

*2026-06-23*

The app operates slowly and clunkily, you can not take a picture with ImageR the app will physically not allow the function. Inspections constantly get stuck “in progress” and nearly as constantly erase everything you’ve done while you are working on completing them. Slack is, significantly better for managing teams. 


TLDR: if you are considering making the switch to this app, don’t.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We are currently working on fixing this issue, we apologise for the inconvenience. If you're still facing any pain points. Please contact Support at Support@BuildingLink.com and we will be happy to help! Have a great day!

### 5/5 — NEEDS IMPROVEMENT

*2022-02-13*

As a doorman I was told I can use this app! But every single time I use it I end up using the original scanner I was provide in my front desk! Is frustrating using this at this moment! Sometime I have to scan twice cause either is giving the wrong apartment or don’t scan at all! Other wise I like this app cause is more convenient specially when I get a lot of packages! 
Please improve this app! Thank you!
