Cannot select a store

Cannot select a store

Can’t even select a store. Wasted my time.

Terrible app

Does not even call you to verify your account Tried to delete app and then reinstall but still not working

Can’t enter low pH

Can’t enter actual low pH, so you have to enter 7. Ridiculous

What’s the point?

I have no idea why anyone would need this app. I use Pinch A Penny exclusively for all of my pool needs. They have installed all of my equipment and they test my pool weekly. None of this information downloads into the app, despite both being connected to my phone number. This app is just essentially a reminder to tell you when to test your own pool and to give you a notebook to keep those records in. that is not at all something the vast majority of people need. I was hoping that it would connect to my account at the store and give me details. I will be deleting it now since despite the fact that it’s useless, it also crashes constantly lol.

Don’t bother

Requires you to put in personal information before viewing any content.

The only part of the app related to the store is the name and ability to find stores. There is no information on what products are sold in the stores.

This is a pool cleaning reminder app. Complete waste. Could be so much better. Just use google and your phone calendar or Alexa or whatever to remind you ….

Don’t give your personal information for this garbage!

Useless

I have used Pinch a Penny for nearly 19 years, but tied to a land line. Tried the call me option a dozen times…never a call. Either not released or poorly deployed/maintained. Guess I’ll use Leslie’s Pool app.

It doesn’t work

Have been using Pinch A Penny for 30 years. Our account was tied to a landline phone. I used the “call me” option but never got a call. Went to the store and switched to my iPhone. Re-entered the data and it still doesn’t work. Totally useless. The good news is that I’ve kept my pool in good shape without the all for 30 years and will continue to do so for another 30. With or without Pinch a Penny.

Can’t log in

App can’t send me code to my text number. Tried several times to no avail…

Confusing

App not able to find my account or provide any information

Doesn’t work

The app won’t work anymore. Trying to log water test results, it gives you an error message to try again later...which it always says. Frustrating. They promote the app but the app won’t work.

App has a glitch right off the bat

App starts by asking for your cell number and throws you into an endless loop of entering your cell number without making progress. I will be deleting this app.

Something happened oh, no

This is what I see when I try and submit my data via the app. Just started happening in the last week. Was there a recent update? I think it’s broken.

No longer synced

Not sure what happened, but it no longer syncs you water samples to the store results. So if you don’t enter your sample manually, you won’t have any records to trace back to.

Huge security risk

Developers need a better login system. Phone number gives access to all sorts of Personal information.

Dumb

Cannot use app unless you share telephone number or text. No access to unless you submit
Too bad I used to be a regular customer hello Leslie pools, good bye Pinch a penny

Garbage

App wont let you go past accepting the terms and conditions. Use a diferent app

What is the dwal

I have a pool account online. App wants me to register phone number. After that it wants me to build pool profile. It will not let me submit the information in. If i try to input pool water test it tells me there is an error on my profile. The error seems to be the pool profile it will not let me submit.

App crashes constantly

This app used to be great to determine what chemicals to add to the pool. Then recently it started crashing whenever I try to input my test strip readings. Please fix. There is no point in launching an app if it can’t be maintained properly.

App crashes

App is constantly crashing. Tried reloading, restarting phone, etc. It’s useless now. Sad.
