It should be removed from the App Store or updated. ### 1/5 — Does not work - avoid *2024-08-13, version 3.2* App is not working since iOS update Don’t buy it ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2022-11-15, version 3.2* I have just bought the beginners app for £5.99 and it does not work. It only allows me to open to the first page and does not allow me to go forward just to press the back button to go back. I would have expected more from Andrew Robson. This is a complete rip Off and this should have been resolved by Andrew Robson to stop people wasting their money on this useless app. Frustrating. ### 2/5 — Opening the app. *2022-07-14, version 3.2* After paying for the app I could not get it to open on my iPad which is new. I need to have some kind of instruction what to do to it to make it workable. ### 4/5 — Bridge user *2020-12-22, version 3.1* This app is a direct repeat of Andrew Robson’s booklets but it illustrates each deal set out in his booklets. Excellent product and seems to work well. I’m only not giving 5 stars as if you have already purchased the books then it’s an expensive add on. If he could find a way of offering a discount for the 2 purchases then it would score top marks. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t seem to work *2020-04-10, version 3.1* I bought this to complement the on-line beginner’s bridge course with Andrew Robson. Having downloaded it I am unable to open it beyond an introductory page offering only a “Back” button that then takes me back to the purchase options. I’ve tried downloading numerous times and been unable to open the app to work successfully. I’m disappointed to have apparently wasted £6.99 on a bugged app. ### 4/5 — SPO1965 *2020-02-19, version 3.1* I went all the way through the lessons from beginner to advanced at the Robson bridge school in london about six years ago but then for various family reasons stopped playing. I still had all my notes and the instruction books but the app has really helped me relearn / remember what to do and I have started again from the beginning. It’s useful having some hands to play and there are enough interactive questions to answer so you can check you have really understood the lesson. The content of the app is really good and the only reason I wouldn’t give it 5* is the app itself is difficult and slow to load after you have paid for it and it took me multiple attempts but it’s worth persevering! ### 2/5 — Can’t open *2020-02-18, version 3.1* I’m admirer of Robinson but after purchasing Hand Evaluation was not able to open ### 1/5 — Will not reinstall *2019-12-13, version 3.1* I have two apple ids and when I went to load several of these apps on another iPad, it wouldn’t reinstall even after I changed the Apple ID. It will install from one of the Apple ID but not the other. I do not want to pay again for these apps. ### 5/5 — Excellent teaching app *2019-08-07, version 3.0* For anyone who has a problem opening the app just press on the card itself and that will open it. It is a brilliant teaching app and I thoroughly recommend it. ## Frequently asked questions about Robson Bridge ### What is Robson Bridge?
