### 1/5 — Not working

*2021-11-05, version 2.1.2*

this app does not work mostly, too bad!!!

### 1/5 — No idea what I’m supposed to do with this

*2021-07-03, version 2.0.2*

I know that I want to reserve time to lap swim, but this app is incredibly not intuitive. I’ve spent 2 minutes with it and can’t figure out anything. You’re supposed to know how to use and app within the first 20 seconds. It leads you to different places that seem to be for the same thing with a totally different GUI. I’m a UX designer, call me. This seems like a non functional first draft build that presents what things COULD look like. Should not have launched this yet, it’s totally not ready and is only going to turn people off from using it.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-06-29, version 2.0.2*

This sure would be a nice app if it actually worked. Every time I go to reserve a lane the app crashes or tries to charge me $4, even though I’m a pass holder.

### 1/5 — Needs some work…

*2021-06-27, version 2.0.2*

App shows reservable spots are available, but when I try to book, error message says activity is full or no longer available.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2021-06-27, version 2.0.2*

It fails every time I try to make a reservation

### 1/5 — Horrible design, very buggy

*2021-06-27, version 2.0.2*

Not intuitive, poorly designed. 

First, I had to use the instructions link on the website to figure out how to schedule a lap swim time. I have designed and tested apps and couldn’t figure this one out. 

Then, I selected a time with 7 spots open and received a message “Sorry, this time is no longer available”. Tried another slot with 8 spots available and received the same message. 

You can’t book spot via the web, so what’s a swimmer to do???

### 1/5 — Doesn’t show my reservations

*2021-06-25, version 2.0.2*

I made reservations for the pool for a few days—did this on my laptop—but when I log in same account on this app, it doesn’t actually show my reservations. For that matter, I can’t find my reservations anywhere online. I guess they have them???

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2021-06-24, version 2.0.2*

You can’t sign up for a class at crashes every time you attempt

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2021-06-24, version 2.0.2*

App crashes or tells me a slot is full when it shows open slots. Terrible. Seriously Portland.

### 1/5 — Just let me swim

*2021-06-24, version 2.0.1*

Kicks you out of the app when you click checkout. Just set up a website, it’s easier
