Authentication Never Completes
Nice Customer Service Reps, Lousy App
The philosophy behind users not being able to access services in a concise manner is confusing, when I see at least eight years of poor reviews for the app.
That is, unfortunately, not prioritizing members nor delivering operational excellence.
Frustratingly uncooperative
Can’t even sign in
Can’t even log in!
Doesn’t work
The user ID is correct because I use it on my iPad all of the time.
This app is awful.
Not sure if they update this app anymore. And there is never anyone via phone to help.
Program doesn’t work
Crashing App
Whew, where to begin…
I will preface this by saying I've part of and connected directly to UI/UX development teams most of my career. So, maybe my standards are way too high.
The app is not impossible to navigate. It's just that there isn't really anything useful there. The dashboard doesn't show much other than your annual sharing amount (they call this the Household Portion).
While the post Feed feature is nice, it's not nearly important enough to an app user to make it the second icon menu option displayed. And, it has a LOT of content in it. Too much, really. Also, the header menu items in each segment are grayed out, making it appear they are unavailable to the app user. They should be in another color or font face or blocked out in a box or whatever, just not grayed out.
The second main icon menu item is Explore. It's a bunch of ghost-written content. Interesting if you have time to read it, but not a high priority for someone using the app. It looks like fluff that was out there because there isn't much else in the app. There isn't.
Telehealth, the next menu icon, works ok. They've made some improvement here recently. But candidly, the web version works much better. It's really difficult to navigate the app scheduling system. Once you go down a provider funnel, you're kind of stuck there. Going back requires multiple steps, which seems unnecessarily complicated. In setting up your health profile, if you have to answer any questions with actual information, the navigation process is atrocious. Every time you fill out a response, the app essentially boots you back to the main telehealth menu. It's a disaster, frankly, and makes using this feature extremely frustrating, because you then have to tunnel back down to where you left off and pray the info you entered stuck (it usually does, the app just gives you the impression it crashed or something with zero confirmation of your last entry).
The Account menu icon leads to a page that has, essentially, nothing on it. Instead of a dashboard, which would seem intituive, there is just a text menu for navigation from there. Feels like a site map page. Unless you can decipher what you're actually looking for, you'd probably just end up clicking chat. Assuming you knew that was an option, because it's another grayed out menu item. However, when you do work past that and click chat, every chat entered (at least on my iPhone) drops into an abyss of mystery. You only get a pop-up line of text with a foreboding message to not navigate away or your chat will end. Navigate away from what? When you enter your first message into the chat feature, it simply disappears. It goes away. Vanishes. There is not thing else displayed on the page other than a chat entry box and said foreboding message. It's easily the worst chat experience I've ever used.
That's it. I'm done. It's just not a good app. Like not at all. And I think we may be leaving Medi-Share as a result, because I've found it terribly inefficient to call them every time I need something. The member service team is usually nice enough, but I don't have endless time in my day to plunk through phone menu items then chat up a CSR. Too bad, because Medi-Share used to be the best. It's not anymore.
