Could be much better

It’s okay but I’ve lost all my old appointment notes and test results after changing GP. Also, there is no way to contact tech support to report this and other issues.

Ok but….

The messaging service the app offers clearly doesn’t work when it comes to contacting your gp. Twice I’ve sent messages to my practice and neither has been received. There’s no sent box so there’s no proof that you’ve sent the messages either.

No good

I managed to register and log in once. The app has now frozen and does nothing. Possibly due to the latest iOS update?
UPDATE: This is now working.

Absolute bilge

This app is unfit for purpose, terrible to navigate & Has inaccurate information. It is just as rubbish & unreliable as all other NHS services

Good

The app is amazing and very easy to access and use. However, I'm disappointed that my previous records aren't available. I was expecting to see my earlier history, but it's missing.
