Can’t review the app until i can use it.

Improve the system guys.

Lovely, trustworthy

Super pleasant family, Riddah was very pleasant and kind. Great experience
She kept me aware of the time and all went smoothly 💕🙏🏻

Distance

Location of pick ups are quite far from what I see on their respective profile.

Not really accessible for those with disabilities and those who don’t have a car

Honestly I’ve really enjoyed using app but there’s just some things that doesn’t sit right with me. For a starter some of the sellers arrange you HOURS after you said you were available. The times they put are also rediculous and short and most of them post at 9pm and expect you to show up shortly before 9:30 which is rediculous when most people using this app sleep at that time or are travelling using slow public transport. I have a disability and being so is harder then it seems and this was genuinely a reminder. trying to be eco friendly and pick up left over food hasn’t been a problem for me besides the fact that most of the sellers have REALLY SMALL strict times you can pick up with them and then if I have “before 10-11pm “ even if you show up before that they still aren’t available as I’ve seen when I’ve ran into the issue myself and was given a one star review. The sellers are also ignorant and not very understanding if you have to cancel an order because of your disability and leave you a one star. Not only that but you can’t tell who’s given you 1 star nor who’s giving you five which I think is good but not very fair. Not to mention I can’t even cancel myself it always has to be the seller that does which gives them the key to cancel and give me one star even if I’ve done nothing wrong.
