### 4/5 — Can’t get customer service

*2023-02-14, version 1.7.6*

I like the app just fine, but when I switched to a new phone, I couldn’t remember my password. The reset is manually done by the developer, and I’ve been trying for over a week to get a reset, but no response either from email or WhatsApp.

### 4/5 — Great app, but needs an update

*2022-10-19, version 1.7.6*

Great functionality for the ministry. Everything you need. But landscape mode would be greater for tablets. And literature needs to be updated to include the Enjoy Life Forever publications (or allow us to add new publications ourselves).

### 3/5 — Très bonne application

*2022-10-12, version 1.7.6*

Très bonne application. Assez facile d’utilisation. Et quand on a des questions, il sont prompt à répondre et nous aider au mieux de leurs capacités. 😊

### 1/5 — I’m disappointed

*2023-04-19, version 1.7.7*

Me and my husband are having issues with missing data. This app needs more attention and updates. ☹️

### 1/5 — Won’t rotate on iPad

*2021-11-20, version 1.7.6*

I can’t give a true review because the app doesn’t rotate on iPad.  I need to be able to type so, sadly I can’t use this app. My rotation lock is off and it still doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Asking brothers for money

*2020-01-02, version 1.7.3*

John 2:16

### 1/5 — Disappointed With Time

*2019-02-03, version 1.5.0*

Each month this app adds at least 15 extra hours to my time on certain days.  It’s time consuming having to go through each day to find out where the error is.

### 2/5 — Thanks but…

*2024-06-15, version 1.7.8*

While I really appreciate the effort to make this app, I have yet to find one that equals what I have in my other phone. On my present app on I ne page you add hours rvs placements etc. you can easily go back and add the time you forgot yesterday or last week up to the beginning of the month. This app has no rv or placement location as far as I can tell. The recording of hours is this tiny little number just behind your thumb as you slide it to the number you need. Why does everyone make such tiny numbers on such a large screen? I don’t understand. Anyway Too much trouble for me. Thanks anyway.

### 2/5 — Difficult

*2024-02-27, version 1.7.8*

I find it hard to navigate when entering time as a pioneer. -/+ not easy or to see progress.

### 2/5 — Regular Pioneer

*2023-09-11, version 1.7.8*

This app doesn't keep up with the months. Right now the month should be September it still showing July month.When I sent my time in for last month the brother had to ask me for which month because it was saying the month of july. Please tell me how to fix this issue.

### 2/5 — BLT

*2021-12-02, version 1.7.6*

I think I would really love and use this app if landscape mode would be available.  I use a separate keyboard to type, and I cannot use it in portrait mode.  Is this a possibility??  Please respond.

### 2/5 — Return visit and sending a report

*2021-02-07, version 1.7.6*

This app is a bit complicated to use, right now I am trying to send my field service report from last month but I can’t seem to find an option and the issue of recording return visit is not user friendly

### 3/5 — Not fully functional

*2023-05-07, version 1.7.7*

It seems like a great idea but the ad return visit portion doesn’t work. I supported the “pro” version to see if it would unlock its capability but it still doesn’t function.
Overall great concept!
