Slow

Just a laggy, frustrating experience

Why aren’t my hours increasing?

The bar isn’t increasing even though the number of hours I’ve registered even exceeds the goal?

Great app!

The app works 99% of the time. Love the ease and convenience of logging it as an award participant. Sometimes the site does crash but will quickly recover.

Duke of ed

This app is really good and makes it really easy to log your hours and things that you are doing!!

Ok

If I wasn’t getting anything out of this I would have been mad because this app is horrible it always kicks me out and is just stubborn also it on,h records one hour even if I do 2 hours a day it records one.I asked my teacher about it and she says that’s how the app works.Its also hard to use.I just finished my bronze so I hope it’s better for silver.

Terrible

Terrible app holy so frustrating to use

Not bad

Overallpretty good and very convenient just lacks a few of the options you would have if you were to use a pc like editting acitivy description and stuff but honeslty youll be fine its so good to have it on the go also easier to upload media

Rigid

Despite the occasional error, the app is really stable to use. This is also a simple app on the surface, probably part of why.

Transferring schools

When I moved schools I was half way through my Bronze DOE. So I had to change my award leader to my new school, I tried to switch it multiple times but it didn’t change, it stayed the same as my old schools award leader.

Duke or egg

Yeah I passed bronze and about to do silver gang

Works well I had a problem but I fixed it

I had the same problem with the logs not being counted in but after reading some reviews all you have to do is make sure that every log is a week apart otherwise it won’t count. I just fixed mine and now the count is back up to where it should be.

Works well over all really easy to use :)

"Lo, the Bane of Mine Existence: A Cursed App Most Foul"

OJ Simpson did not die for this!
I am left with naught but regret for ever downloading this wretched app. What once seemed a harmless tool hath become a blight upon my days. The user interface is a labyrinth most confounding, riddled with bugs and errors that vex even the most patient of souls. Promises of ease and efficiency are but empty words, for this app hath wrought nothing but chaos upon my life.

Updates, instead of mending these grievous faults, doth only worsen the plague. Data lost, tasks undone, and endless frustration are all that remain. Avoid this accursed creation, lest ye too find thy peace and sanity devoured by its malevolent grip.

Woe unto me, for I was deceived. Let this be a warning to others—this app is truly the harbinger of misery.

Ok

This app is really useful to log in my Duke of Ed hours, but when I put in sessions that are more than 1h, it just counts it as one. Like, I’ve done all the hours for skills, but it says that I haven’t, which is really annoying.

8/10 Good App

Amazing app when it comes to functionality it provides helpful details about all aspects of the Journey. Unfortunately one thing i would like to see change is being able to see the evidence part of your adventurous Journey after it has been approved, right now it just says congratulations i would like to look back and see what i wrote about the journey.
But overall pretty great App!!!

Bad

Y’all better fix this fr like damn js give me my hours, I have over 140 hours logged on one of my activities and only 15 counted!!!

Can’t count

The UI isn’t bad by any means it is more just a pain to actually log hours and do things on it

Spelling errors

The app in itself is easy to navigate. However, the whole thing is riddled with spelling errors! Specifically, most appeared before I had been assigned an award leader. Hopefully this can be fixed in the future.

Keeps crashing

Randomly crashes when being used

Hours not adding up

I’ve been adding my hours up and it has not been adding them correctly
For my major I did my volunteering which I have done 24 hours but it is only saying I’ve done 13 hours which is very annoying 😡

Great app

I recently used this app for my Duke of ed silver, this app helped me progressed through my entire journey and has little to no glitches, although I would prefer to know when times reset so I can track my hours.
