### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-06-18*

If I could give 0 stars it would still be too high. The level of garbage this app is appalling. Nothing works. Save yourself a bunch of time and call to get anything done. Don’t use the app.

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2025-07-28*

The app crashes every time I try to reopen it. I have to delete the app and reinstall it every time I want to use it.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2024-08-08*

This is probably the most frustrating app I’ve ever downloaded! Have had to talk to admin everyday to log in to see pics and write bunk notes. Needs a lot of work!!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-07-29*

I’m a long time Kanakuk Alumni and my son is at his first term. I’m not sure how new this app is but this is an extremely aggravating experience. I have had to cal multiple times just to get the Bunk1 (which I never had in the first place) linked with the Kanakuk app. Now that it’s linked, the photos don’t even work on the app. The photos website doesn’t work at all. Can’t even load on any web browser I have tried. No trouble shooting efforts have been able to fix this. 

I don’t blame Kanakuk for this. However, this is such a terrible experience and it’s giving me anxiety about how out of date everything else out Kamp might be…..

### 2/5 — Works terrible

*2024-07-21*

I have to delete and redownload the app every time I use it.  I have two campers.  After days of trying to send them emails, I finally figured out that I had to select the second camper first to send messages.  Painful.  Love the photo recognition that serves up pictures.

### 1/5 — Love the Kamp but the app keeps failing

*2024-07-21*

I have so much trouble with the app crashing. I have deleted and reinstalled and it still regularly crashes. I have to end up using the website to do/see anything.

### 2/5 — Glitch city

*2024-07-11*

Very glitchy and not user friendly. It’s extremely irritating trying to look through daily photos.

### 1/5 — Had to Reinstall the app twice

*2024-07-08*

Had to reinstall the app twice. You have to pay money to send your child messages.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Ever Load

*2024-06-15*

I’ve been trying to log in for weeks. The screen just loads and loads. Good thing they have the website to log into. This app is currently useless.

### 1/5 — Can’t connect

*2024-06-03*

I’ve downloaded this app so many times in the last two days. I can use it a couple of times and then it disappears. Over and over. So sad because it was supposed to be a way to connect with my granddaughter at camp!!
