App is digressing

This app has undergone some changes. It used to work great but now has been cobbled by some google api logging code the added. It also could use a preference setting page so I can add my regularly connected groups without having to search for them every time.

I use an ad blocking platform on my home network and cannot use this app at all. If I disconnect, I can use the app but at the sake of giving away loads of unnecessary data. The web page performs without issue so it is clearly this added logging add in on the app.

Please clean it up.

Want to Support, but Can’t UX is not rly there

I really want to join and find more opportunities to participate in non-profits in Austin.

But this app rly is not user friendly and not intuitive, if I can provide some feedback here’s what I’d say.
1. Ability to filter by time and date
2. Filter by most popular/joined groups
3. Create volunteer event to join so you can see events you sign up for instead of adding group
4. Create community forum for organizers can communicate with their volunteers

If these are features that are already there then it does mean that it isn’t very discoverable might need to work on the user journey there.

Unreliable

Back around 2018 this app was much more reliable. Now it freezes at various times while using the app which makes logging volunteer hours or signing up for volunteer shifts challenging.

Inaccessible hours

This app will not allow me to edit my hours.

Needs work

We switched to this system to simplify our tracking of hours. I find that this not quite formatted to mobile devices which is what we mostly use. I couldn’t use this at all on my iPad and it’s wonky on my iPhone. It has potential just fix a few things with the formatting.
