### 1/5 — Bugs

*2022-08-12, version 3.0.2*

Bombs out and always full of bugs

### 1/5 — Wrost App Ever

*2022-07-04, version 3.0.2*

It won't even let you in! You cannot enter the app even after you use the correct login details. This app is so frustrating.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-05-11, version 3.0.1*

The app keeps kicking me out. I have to try and race to authenticate before it kicks me out. This takes many attempts. So frustrating.

### 1/5 — April 2022 update is a disaster!!!

*2022-05-03, version 3.0.1*

App doesn’t work anymore after April 2022 update, now with immediate 100% crash rate on every App launch

### 1/5 — New update

*2022-04-26, version 3.0*

This new update is bad. I can’t even access my results. If I try to access them the app just exits itself.

### 1/5 — 😔

*2022-04-25, version 3.0*

App keeps on crashing after update😡

### 1/5 — OSA authentication

*2022-03-23, version 2.2*

This app does not work at all.

I have been trying to authenticate for the past two days.
No advisor has given me information that has provided me with a solution.

I feel the authenticating process is  unnecessarily complicated. 

If I am unsuccessful with authenticating, this means I am unable to write my OSA? Even though fees would have been paid ? 
Absurd. 

Please consider doing away with the app, or fix a problem that not 1 but numerous students are facing.

This is extremely unfair and is putting a lot of students at a disadvantage.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-06-03, version 2.1.1*

This is one of the worst app ever created. I’m supposed to be writing my exam now however I can’t do the app authentication. I continuously get unable to detect face error. Mancosa is really disappointing 😡😡

### 1/5 — OSA Assessment Authentication

*2021-04-06, version 2.1.1*

I’ve been trying to upgrade the app for days now and I can’t go into the exam unless I get a face recognition. I don’t know what to do now cause if I don’t get the face recognition I won’t be able to write my exam. That’s so stressful and the app doesn’t do justice. Worst app ever.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2020-12-05, version 1.2.4*

Countless technical issues with the app , Mancosa seem to think this app is awesome (scary) , it does not nothing what they expect it to do . They should delete and start again.

### 1/5 — Work in this app PLEASE

*2020-11-26, version 1.2.3*

So many issues with this app causing us stress before our online exams because your app doesn’t function properly

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2020-11-16, version 1.2.2*

For an app they have placed so much emphasis on, this is below standard.

### 1/5 — Mancosa Authentication app

*2020-11-10, version 1.2.2*

This app is a disaster, the developer should realize that some of our identity document photos were taken 10 to 20 years ago and people this days use makeups to alter their faces, others lose and gain weight in a short period of time. i believe this technology uses mathematical formula that compares the known database of the face. Is it going to be accurate all the time?

### 1/5 — Horrible even after updates

*2020-11-10, version 1.2.2*

i’ve never had to write a review for an app but this has to be the worst experience i’ve had with one. 
this is my second and last chance to be able to attempt my mock activity but it constantly tells me that i need to authenticate 2 hours before the exam, it is now 1 hour before the mock activity. 
if this app continues to behave like this then there are going to be problems on the day of the exams and i don’t want to deal with such unnecessary stress.

### 1/5 — UPDATE

*2020-11-09, version 1.2.2*

ALMOST Every time one has to log in they have to update the app! It’s really annoying.

### 1/5 — Awful and not well planned

*2020-11-08, version 1.2.2*

This app is awful. It’s not well managed. Now it won’t even update. Mancosa you need to sort this out before our exams. This is absolutely unfair. What you are doing is unfair to us as students and it’s wrong!!!

### 1/5 — Login error: fail to aunthenticate

*2020-10-26, version 1.1.1*

This app doesn’t allow to login even with correct credentials is still giving an error. This is disappointing especially when online summative exams are around the corner.

Please fix that bug!!!

### 1/5 — Bad, bad, bad app..

*2020-10-25, version 1.1.1*

Really bad app.. it does not work and does not allow me to take a selfie for authentication.. student support do not know how to support.. What happens when it’s time for exams and we can’t authenticate?

### 1/5 — Login

*2025-05-25, version 5.0.6*

I am unable to log in it keeps saying incorrect password

### 1/5 — Please Hire a new App Developer

*2024-04-29, version 5.0.3*

There’s absolutely no way this is an app for a private institution. What is this? 

Every time I try to login I’m told the password is wrong and I change it every time. You can’t be serious. 

Please hire a new app developer, please. How are we supposed to do our schoolwork?

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2024-03-16, version 5.0.2*

It’s disheartening to see the negative reviews being put up with no response from the devs to at least sympathise or even offer to solve the issues experienced. I’m writing this review almost a year later after the repeated failures of this app have been reported and still nothing has been done. As an app that is crucial to the learning experience that Mancosa offers, it’s only just that you prioritise at least attending to the listed issues. Please do find it in your capacity to mitigate these problems.

### 1/5 — Keeps saying wrong password

*2024-03-07, version 5.0.2*

It’s tiring, I always have to reset my password even if I’ve saved it on my phone

### 1/5 — Poor

*2023-11-21, version 5.0.1*

One off the worst apps ever. Most outdated interface and not user friendly. I cannot even update my contact details….update button does not work. Please redesign with the student as the end user.

### 1/5 — Password

*2023-04-18, version 4.1.3*

Worst App I have used. I have to go to forget  password every time to access the app.

### 1/5 — Useless!

*2023-03-08, version 4.1*

Useless application. Since my update I haven’t been able to access my profile. My password is wrong and strangely enough before the update I could access my profile with ease.

### 1/5 — What’s with the default profile picture?

*2023-03-03, version 4.1*

Please include an option to change one’s profile picture because we can’t all be the same white person wearing a panda suit please. Who even decided that that was the correct decision?

### 1/5 — Difficulty resetting password

*2023-02-06, version 4.0*

The upgrade does not allow for re setting  of passwords and does not accept my previous password …where the forgot password option is selected only feedback is bad request with no alternatives to reset

### 1/5 — Fix the app

*2022-11-01, version 3.0.3*

This app is absolutely ridiculous! Half the time the authentication doesn’t work and you have to phone student services the morning of your exam or it is always closing for no reason or you try and chat to support and the option to type doesn’t work

## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated)

### 2/5 — Apple update

*2022-05-12, version 3.0.1*

I have done the update, however there has been no change to the app. The latest features shown under the app preview are not available. It does not look anything like the app preview.

### 2/5 — App exits in second after update

*2022-04-25, version 3.0*

Latest update done on 25 April 2022. App is not responsive and App exits back to home phone home screen within a second. Please investigate ASAP.
