### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-09-30, version 10.9*

The scheduling feature doesn’t work. If you click on the month tab, it still shows the week you are in. It doesn’t allow you to see future appointment dates.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t let me sign in

*2023-09-12, version 10.9*

i’m already a client but it doesn’t allow me to make an account. useless app.

### 1/5 — Useless for appointments

*2023-08-31, version 10.9*

App is useless when it comes to appointments. It shows you a week at a time and only goes one ahead; it has the option to show by month but it doesn’t work. Probably the worst app I’ve ever tried to use for appointments.

### 1/5 — Don’t Bother

*2023-07-16, version 10.9*

App no longer works. Won’t let me log in, won’t let me change my password. No one can help me. Absolute waste.

### 1/5 — Actually terrible

*2023-06-15, version 10.9*

My location told me to make it an account to manage my appointments, can’t even make an account because it says my information is invalid and when I call the 1-800 line at any hour of the day they’re unavailable.

### 1/5 — The app wouldn't open up

*2023-06-06*

The app is stuck at the loading page. It's showing a buffering sign with the following message since over 2 months now - "We're still setting a few things up...".

Initially I thought that maybe the app is down for a bit, but it'll be back up soon. But it's disappointing to see so much time pass by with no change.

### 1/5 — This company is a scam!!!!

*2023-06-02*

After closing all their Canadian locations, the company is refusing to refund their customers money for treatment already paid for.  I am in the hole over $5000 for treatment I didn’t receive and now they are ghosting my calls and emails.

I cannot stress enough that you should avoid this company.  I wish I had done more research before paying for treatment 😥 don’t repeat my mistake.  If you are considering treatment, go literally anywhere else!

### 1/5 — Won’t let me even register

*2023-03-31, version 10.9*

Customer Service Representatives that hang up on you when you try to schedule an appointment and an app that won’t even let you register to see what times are available. Ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2023-03-18*

Terrible app. The UI is pretty good so it’s a shock at how bad the app actually is. Tried to schedule a touch up but the app doesn’t let me since I’ve “had a removal appt in the last 5 weeks” except that was for a completely different area. The app pretends to understand the difference between scheduling a regular appt vs a touch up but it actually doesn’t know anything. I don’t mind calling and scheduling but don’t advertise your app as an alternative to calling when I’ve not once been able to schedule an appt on it.

### 1/5 — KHB

*2023-01-16, version 10.9*

This app does not allow me to book an appointment even after I choose the Book Appointment tab

### 1/5 — Scam. Beware.

*2023-01-10, version 10.9*

I cannot access my account with Ideal Image at all. I get to the 2-Factor Authentication screen where I am asked how I would like to receive a one-time authentication code either by email or text. Neither option works. A red banner pops up saying “An Error Has Occurred [Object Object]”.  They ONLY have a phone number for you to call to get help. I called the number and she changed my email address and said it should work now. When I told her it didn’t she told me she couldn’t help me and that she has never had this issue before. And that was it. She said she was sorry and she would make a note of it. Never resolved my issue. I am just supposed to accept I cannot access my account which means I cannot manage my payments or make any appointments. They are refusing to allow me access to my personal information with them that is listed on my account. This place is a SCAM!

### 1/5 — Can’t use without a passcode on your iPhone

*2022-12-15*

I’m able to successfully login after creating an account, but still, months later, I get an error immediately after logging in that I need to enable a passcode on my phone. Why on earth should ideal image require me to have a passcode on my phone? Very frustrating. Not everyone uses one.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-11-14, version 10.9*

App freezes every time I try to use it. Every. Single. Time. Haven’t been able to utilize it for booking yet. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Extremely buggy & mostly unusable

*2022-11-10, version 10.9*

Whoever developed the app should try to use it and see how bad it is.  You can’t even look for an appointment.  It just clocks indefinitely and you have to close the app to try something else.  Can’t believe they released it like this.  Just awful.

### 1/5 — Worst App Ever

*2022-11-07*

This is such a bad app. I use apps all the time to schedule appointments, order groceries, etc.

This app will go in a loop every time you try and book an appointment.

I have done so much troubleshooting such as, deleted the app,  re-installed the app, logged out and back in. It never once worked. I was never once able to book an appointment.

When you call Ideal Image they tell you to download this app to book appointments. Problem is, you can’t. The app is absolutely unusable. 

This whole company seems sketchy to be honest. They reel you in with „Specials“, you pay, and when you want to schedule an appointment, they have none available! They will put you on a waiting list, refer you to an app that does not work, and tell you that the schedule for the following month is not available so they can’t even schedule you an appointment for a service that you already paid for!!!!, one month out!!

So, over all not trustworthy at all which the app just makes clear too. Useless!!!

### 1/5 — Update does not load next month or next week openings

*2022-11-03*

I loved the old version. Every time I try to go to the next month or week it freezes. I call to see more times and they tell me check the app. When I tell them the problem with the app they say they have no control over the app.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2022-11-03, version 10.9*

Never functions properly. Can’t reschedule anything or edit apts. seriously do better bc this place is expensive and shouldn’t have to call every time I want to do something.

### 1/5 — Can’t book

*2022-10-21, version 10.7*

Only allows you to schedule Botox appointments… not what I need to schedule.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Scheduling frequently down, broken links

*2024-12-25*

The scheduling feature is frequently down. I haven’t been able to schedule online or through the App for well over a month due to a “list out of bounds” error. 
The link to the Store is also frequently down. Members are supposed to receive 15% off skincare products, but I’ve never been able to buy any, simply because the ability to shop online is so frequently broken and unavailable. This is the worst digital experience I have ever had.

### 1/5 — Still garbage

*2024-12-01, version 10.9*

You would think for a place that sells snake oil to desperate women, they would at least put forth an appt that lets to book appts easily. I hope they get sued and go bankrupt

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-11-02, version 10.9*

Cannot log in. Never. Why do you have it?

### 1/5 — They will charge you a no-show fee, even if their app messed up

*2024-10-17*

I’ve made my appointment through the ideal image app and have canceled them on occasion more than 24 hours in advance. The last couple of times I have tried to cancel on the app. It shows me that it was canceled on my end, but the location never received the update from the app so they charged me a no-show fee, even though I’m with their policy. I have asked to be escalated and customer service treats me as a nuisance. It’s very frustrating, especially with the amount of money that I have spent to have the touchup service even after my plans have ended.

### 1/5 — Automatic deletion without letting us know through email or cell phone

*2024-10-08, version 10.9*

I wasn’t aware of me being deleted from this app didn’t get an email or text message or voicemail. I’m unable to login like if I wasnt ia customer at all.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-09-09, version 10.9*

The app is broken. Doesn’t allow you to schedule appointments. A clear bug pops up saying “index out of bounds: 0” when you try to schedule. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2024-03-26, version 10.9*

Scammy service. Dishonest sales people will say anything to sell you a scammy contract. Ripped me off by thousands of dollars. Avoid Ideal Image at all costs. Looks like I'll need to be taking legal action .

### 1/5 — App just crashes

*2024-03-25, version 10.9*

Initially when you first get the app it works great but once it logs you out it’ll never work again

### 1/5 — App is Trash

*2023-11-12*

This app doesn’t work well at all. All it’s really good for is seeing your appointments. When I try and reschedule it never pulls up the monthly view when I change it from looking for appointments week by week. It definitely needs to get worked on or what’s the point in having it. It’s not like ideal image ever puts up real pricing.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-10-19*

Terrible app. Hardly ever works, and when it does, the options available are minuscule. It’s easier to call to make an appt- although recently when I called to book a laser hair removal touch of, I was told by the store manager that I could only book ONE WEEK out, because of a recent change to their policy. I’m extremely busy, and need to plan and book further out than just one week. 👎🏼

### 5/5 — I love Maggie!

*2022-12-07*

When it comes to med spas, laser, or anything else, it’s everywhere. So it takes a certain person to be able to separate this place from the rest :)

### 5/5 — Great for appointments

*2022-10-11*

This app is great for managing and rescheduling my appointments. It’s eliminated my need to call in - super convenient!  Always find last minute openings too.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2022-06-30*

Hands some bugs in the beginning but now it works great. Easy to reschedule my appointments to get in quick and I don’t have to call in to speak to someone

### 5/5 — Awesome 🤩

*2022-06-30, version 10.4*

The staff members were polite and professional and friendly.Positive place to go Latia made sure I was comfortable and pleased with the service

### 5/5 — So much easier

*2022-05-20*

When I have to reschedule my appointments, it’s so much easier to do it here instead of trying to call.

### 5/5 — Works Great

*2022-05-20, version 10.0*

App is wonderful and works great! Allows quick rescheduling!

### 5/5 — This app is amazing!

*2022-05-20, version 10.0*

Love the app!

### 5/5 — Ideal Image

*2022-03-28, version 10.0*

I’ve had nothing but great experiences. 😊

### 2/5 — Fix the bugs man!! 🙄

*2022-10-24*

Work alright when I just got it. 
I only use it to see when’s my next appointment and confirm it. 
However since lately it hasn’t been loading. Just keep saying “we’re working on it” and a blank screen comes up. This has been happening for days now so I can’t even confirm my upcoming appointment.

### 2/5 — Bumpy

*2022-07-01, version 10.4*

Could be convenient , but the app is very bumpy and clumsy  in its function , often does not respond , or times out .
