Needs updated

The app needs to be updated and won’t work but says it needs to be upgraded

Scanner Doesn’t work

Scanner doesn’t scan any item, must enter every barcode! On top of that some items on the app when you type the barcode in says yes WIC approved then you get to the register and you end up paying full price…

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. We are aware of issues with scanning. This will be fixed in an upcoming release of the app.

Horrible

Can’t even scan all UPC codes. Approved for Enfamil baby formula but when scanned says it’s not. Organic fruits scanned not qualify. App is just the worst thing I’ve ever downloaded. Don’t scan and when entered denies everything.

Ease of use is terrible!

The app lacks a lot in ease of use and functionality. Sometimes works and other times you can’t use certain buttons or it will not load correctly.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. A phone's cellular data connectivity can sometimes impact buttons showing up or data loading correctly while inside of a store. We are working on updates to the app to help with ease of use that will be released in the next 6 months or so.

Feb 29! Not working

Leap year , leap day today. Last day for WIC groceries today and the app is not working at all!!

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. Unfortunately there was an outage that affected the app during the afternoon on 2/29/2024. This was resolved the same day please let us know if you continue to have issues with the app working.

Issues with IOS apple products

I enjoy using the WIC app, however it seems to give issues with my iPhone. My partner is able to pull up our available benefits with his Samsung with no issues, but I have issues sometimes. Please review and fix this!

Disappointing

While this app have never worked great, it seems to freeze more and more. When trying to scan items, it will lock up. The only way to continue to use it is by closing the app completely and then restarting it. It has now lost our saved information and when I try and register again it will not allow me to select the register button.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. What model Phone are you using? If you are currently registered please unregister, then uninstall and reinstall the app and try to register again.

Works great

Easy to use.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app we are glad it is working well for you!

Doesn’t work at all stores like it’s supposed to

I went to a few stores that are approved on the list for me to shop at, but none of the approved items would work. I literally scanned each item in the app to make sure they were approved, and when I went to checkout none of it worked. The store kiosk was saying I got items that weren’t approved. So I’m not sure if that’s a store problem or an app problem but it left me feeling embarrassed cause I had to put the food back.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. To be able to verify if this is a store or app issue please collect UPC's from any transactions that have issues, and provide this information along with any errors to your Local Agency. They will be able to pass this information along to be researched by the helpdesk and vendor unit to determine if this is a store issue.

Barcode scanner

Doesn’t work, will not scan anything. So I have to patiently type everything in and that’s a lot of work with 3 kids. Otherwise everything else works. Just occasional frozen screen!

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. I apologize for the inconvenience. When the screen freezes does it freeze while attempting to scan, or does it freeze when opening the scan food item screen?

App is NOT WORKING!

The app suddenly stop working , won’t refresh or reload , can’t even chat with support , even though I’ve opt in for text

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. We apologize for the inconvenience and troubles with the app. Could you please try the following. 1. Unregister within the Mobile App 2. Uninstall the Mobile App 3. Reinstall the Mobile App 4. Register again If these steps do not resolve the issue please let us know.

Ugh

This app is clunky and slow. The scanning function does not work and each bar code needs to be entered manually.

Edit: my network connection is fine. It literally doesn’t scan.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. We apologize for any issues you are experiencing. The scanning function does not work properly without network connections, and phones do not always have the best connection to networks inside of stores. For this reason we do recommend manually inputting the UPC code if the phones network connectivity is having issues.

Doesn’t even work!!!

I’m new to WIC and it won’t even let me register. I put in all my info, click register and nothing happens. I have done with multiple times with no results. I even delivered the app and redownloaded. Pointless.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app. We apologize for the issues you are having when attempting to register in the app. Please reach out to your WIC Clinic to troubleshoot the issue further.

Used to work well

Used to work really well, but after getting a new phone the scanner does not work.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking time to review the app, can you please attempt to uninstall and reinstall the app and check again?

Not loading

My app has not been loading or opening for the past week.

Scanner

It would be nice if the barcode scanner was quick because it seems to take forever for the screen to cooperate in order to scan another item to see what is all covered by WIC

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to review the app. Cell reception within a store can sometimes cause delays with the scanner. You could save a PDF of the food list locally on the phone as an option to get around this issue.

Not working

My app hasn’t been loading anything for the past week. I can’t see my benefits, messages.. nothing. Maybe it needs to be updated?

Response from developer

There was an outage over the past few days, we apologize for the inconvenience. We have resolved the issue and the mobile app should be working now.

Must be nice for those who can actually get it to work

I can’t get past the registration.
