### 1/5 — VERY BAD 👎

*2022-11-24, version 1.9.0*

Very bad APP, the screen freezes, the camera remains black, it does not receive a GPS signal.  A waste of time waiting for a frozen screen.  bad bad bad 👎

### 1/5 — Having to take pictures

*2022-10-01, version 1.9.0*

Having to take pictures of every stop is way to much, it’s to time consuming. The app was OK before this implementation. Take it off!

### 1/5 — App freezes

*2022-09-18, version 1.5.1*

For some reason the app freezes when I start scanning out for delivery.

### 1/5 — Exteme lagging and full of bugs and crashes

*2021-11-25, version 1.4.2*

Worst app for delivering.. no updates or fixes to bugs crashes or extreme lagging.. im running this on iPhone 13pro max and this app is just garbage

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2021-10-29, version 1.4.2*

App keeps on crashing every 20 or so scans at site but out of facility it crashes every 10 packages which slows down my job considerably. It’s been going on for 2 weeks after deleting the app and reinstalling it

### 1/5 — Requires Quality of Life Updates

*2021-10-14, version 1.4.2*

The app should allow multiple scans without having to press a button every time. Manual entry should be allowed even if a route hasn’t been sent yet or wasn’t received. There are constant issues with the Fastrak site not sending the route to the scanner. There should also be a dark mode option because the constant white background will kill the battery faster.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2021-07-14, version 1.4.2*

This app is horrible and in desperate need of updates… which it never receives. Half the time it won’t scan the car code, and when it finally does the app will crash. Nothing more frustrating to deal with while at work! Trash.

### 1/5 — Delivery scans disappearing

*2021-07-05, version 1.4.2*

After scanning multiple packages for Delivery, sometimes it randomly clears out the packages you’ve already scanned and you’re forced to start over. This is extremely frustrating and only disrupts my workflow.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2021-03-14, version 1.4.2*

Camera freezes all the time when scanning. 
It’s very clear upper management doesn’t care. 
No wander OnTrac has awful reviews.
All about profit

### 1/5 — Glitchy app!!!!

*2021-01-16, version 1.2.1*

Very poor and does not work properly!

### 1/5 — Please add support for dark mode!

*2020-12-12, version 1.0*

White screen killing battery all day for no reason!

Update: Doesn’t work on the new iPhone. Splash screen infinitely spins and doesn’t get passed initial screen.

### 1/5 — Needs bug fixes...

*2020-12-05, version 1.0*

When is Ontrac going to improve this app and figure out the bugs that are causing the screen to blackout on OD and Delivery menus?!?!  Need an update yesterday! The app is a direct copy of the scanner with very little improvement.   Definitely slows down delivery times.   Needs slot of improvement.

### 1/5 — Fix app

*2020-11-14, version 1.0*

Please fix the app. When you scan out for delivery it will scan about 3-4 packages and then the camera will black out and have to restart the phone. Started when iOS 14 came out

### 1/5 — Please fix picture function!

*2023-12-22*

Multiple times every route, I’ll be stuck on someone’s porch trying to take a picture as proof that I’ve left a package and the app refuses to accept it…  impossible to do my job efficiently with so many glitches. PLEASE FIX!

### 1/5 — iPhone 15

*2023-09-28*

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-05-13*

The worst app for drivers!!! the developers must have never talked to anyone who uses the app!!

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2023-03-20*

This app is just garbage, it freezes always, you gotta scan 2,3,4 times packages for the same address, when you get to a house and scan it sends messages to you saying it’s not the correct address, just a mess. Same than the company

### 3/5 — “SNAP” Delay and “DELIVER” Suggestion

*2023-12-19*

After hitting “SNAP” for a picture there is a horrid delay. The picture comes out blurry even if you move just slightly (after 2-3 seconds.) 

 Also, after hitting “Deliver” it would be awesome to see a quick 3 second prompt showing “You delivered to (the coordinates, street name)”.

### 3/5 — Decent but could be fixed

*2021-03-24, version 1.4.2*

Developers, please FIX option for manual entry. On android, after selecting manual entry, tracking numbers can be deselected and selected. On this app, once a box is deselected, one cannot select a new package from manual entry and unable to add if barcode became bad on delivery route. 
Otherwise process seems to be as smooth as android!

### 3/5 — Needs work

*2021-01-29, version 1.2.1*

Initially I used an IPhone 7 with T-mobile data service. Atrocious. Awful. It would freeze constantly and cause me to exit. Most frustrated I’ve ever been delivering. 

However, I got an iPhone SE with Verizon and its own line. 

Night and day difference. 

I did put my phone on “low power” to conserve the battery and I still had 45% left after 190 stops. 

SUGGESTIONS:
 
1) Allow an RF scanner to work with the route in the app. I’ve found it works with Out for Delivery mode, but it will only work with deliveries if you have multiple packages to the same stop. In the “Search” line, allow searches for barcodes, that would probably enable the scanner to work, only after tapping in the search bar though. 

1B) Scanner OD. Even though I’ve found an RF scanner works with Out for Delivery, I have to tap into the “Enter Package Barcode” line every time I scan another package. I can set the scanner up to “Tab” or “Enter” after every scan, but I don’t know what the function would be in the app to get it to return to the package barcode line without tapping my screen. It would streamline my scanning if the cursor would automatically return to the line after scanning. 

2) Reduce scrolling. When setting up the “location of delivery,” have it automatically set to “front door” instead of having to scroll to it. 95% of the time, that’s where it’s left, it would help a lot to reduce looking at the phone. 

3) Templates.  To advance on point 2, set up templates for deliveries. Where one could scan a package and get to click once to confirm everything in one step, that the package was clear to leave, at the correct address, and it was left at the front door, again, reducing time looking at the phone. 

4) Flashlight. When scanning at night, and after having activated the flash light once, configure it so it comes back on automatically every time a package is scanned instead of having to do it manually every time. 

The app isn’t terrible but it could use some polish. I would imagine that someone with less reliable service or an older phone would be frustrated endlessly with it as I was initially. If time looking at the screen could be reduced so I could move and groove without worrying about tripping or falling, this app would be an adequate substitute for the handheld scanner.

### 2/5 — iphone  15 pro max

*2023-10-21*

iphone 15 camera isn’t working to snap packages with this app please fix photo snap error

### 2/5 — iphone  15 pro max

*2023-10-17*

iphone 15  camera isn’t working to snap packages with this app 
please fix  photo snap error

### 2/5 — NOT HAPPY

*2020-07-17, version 1.0*

Having to hit scan makes the process so much slower. The fact that there is no way to manually input a tracking number if the stop wasn’t sent is also not good. At this point there’s not really anything I like about it although I am new to it. I’m hoping for improvement
