### 2/5 — Drains battery like no other app

*2025-01-13, version 8.3.1*

Even though background refresh is turned off, if you don’t force close the app it will happily consume >30% of your battery during the day even if you don’t use the app

### 1/5 — Clunky

*2024-12-10, version 8.2.1*

Like others have said this app is sooooo sloooow. I have AAA games that load way faster than this. And you can’t look away for more than 2 seconds and it will do it all over again. 

Also, the interface is poorly designed and clutters the experience. 

Honestly you are probably better off finding what you are looking for by using meet mobile, swim cloud, and your team’s website.

### 2/5 — Annoying - keep navigating back to page if you switch context and back

*2024-12-08, version 8.2.1*

If you’re looking at a meet info and need to check your calendar or your athlete’s PB, and then get back to this app, it just starts over. Which means you must waste 2 mins every time to navigate back to that meet info you were looking at.

### 2/5 — Why?!

*2024-12-03, version 8.2.1*

App does everything it needs to…except keep you logged in. This app acts like it holds the US nuclear codes and immediately logs out and takes you back to the start if you move out of the app at all. So grab a 2nd device if you need to use it because you can’t check your calendar and use the app at the same time. It’s fine.

### 4/5 — Version 8.2.1

*2024-12-01, version 8.2.1*

There is a regression in standards. Standard time is not respected, all swimmers show v above cutline.

### 1/5 — OnDeck Refresh Annoying

*2024-10-11, version 8.1.0*

The developers of this app need to change how this app reloads every time you leave the app for 2 seconds and then come back to it. I wish it would just stay on the page you were on when you temporarily leave the app.

### 4/5 — Few issues

*2024-09-25, version 8.0.4*

Time standards are not current and they have been out for several weeks now. Cannot sign up for jobs on the app.

### 3/5 — Refresh

*2024-08-03, version 8.0.2*

It’s a good app.  Main thing that keeps me from using it is anytime I switch to another app and then come back, Ondeck re-logs in and takes me back to main screen.  Very slow and very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-07-13, version 8.0.2*

App opens to a login screen. If you don’t already have a username and password it’s unusable. Help link is broken. No option to register or a link to anything. Useless.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2024-07-10, version 8.0.1*

Ability to sign up for events and volunteer positions stopped working, and unable to contact for a resolution.
