### 5/5 — Very quick and efficient

*2026-08-21*

Im a member through our company. I wanted to visit a online GP today, i was able to book for an hour later. Very quick and helpful. 
I believe there are other services you can take.

### 5/5 — Dr Gulmobeen Aurangzeb

*2026-08-18, version 5.16.0*

Very happy with the process via the app and the Dr was very understanding.

### 1/5 — Extremely poor app

*2026-08-17, version 5.16.0*

This is probably the lowest quality app I have ever seen. It’s difficult to log in, forgets information, crashes and lacks features. I dread having to make a claim. The developers should be ashamed of their work. The company I work for used to use the Westfield health app which just worked.

### 5/5 — Mental health

*2026-08-11, version 5.16.0*

Very relaxed and helpful

### 1/5 — Issues not with app, but the “professionals”

*2026-08-06, version 5.16.0*

I had 3 total appointments cancelled, all by the same professional. The issue is  once an appointment is cancelled, you then can’t get one for a minimum of 7 working days.

### 5/5 — Prompt and reliable

*2026-07-30, version 5.16.0*

We rarely need to consult a GP but when we do, this service is easy to book and the consultations start promptly. I also have confidence in the GPs that provide the service- always helpful and inspire confidence.

### 1/5 — Terrible UX

*2026-07-17, version 5.15.1*

The login process and UX of this app is terrible. The login in process is unnecessarily inconvenient and requires you to get an email code every single time you log in. You can’t paste the code in either. The app is glitchy and slow as well. Poor design.

### 1/5 — Terrible app, completely inaccessible

*2026-07-10, version 5.15.1*

Whoever designed this app and the authentication flows has obviously never encountered the WCAG accessibility guidelines or even considered accessibility.

The registration flow is needlessly complicated, the app actively blocks pasting and the password policy is ridiculous with an unspecified maximum character length so I had to keep shortening my password until it met your “complexity” requirement.

Overall a terrible app that I’d be happy if I could never use again!

Update: Every time I use this app I die a little. Could the devs please look at the WCAG Accessible Authentication guidelines as it feels like everything they do is at odds with it. Blocking paste for passwords and verification codes is hostile to your users. If I had a choice I’d avoid this company!

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-07-10, version 5.15.1*

Really poor app constant login issues bringing up error messages leaving me unable to use the app

### 1/5 — Awful app design

*2026-07-06, version 5.15.1*

The log in process is awful! I’m not convinced any real world used have ever tested this app. It repeatedly hangs when trying to submit claims, the UI is also awful with boxes hidden by the phone keyboard.
