Update disaster

What the heck are you trying to do?
Absolute disaster of an update. I guess it’ll improve over time but to release such a Beta version of a new style.
Made something that was already difficult and disastrous, even more difficult and disastrous.
KingDraxtaKingDraxta

Response from developer

Hi, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are already working on improvements based on our community's feedback, if you would like to see some specific please add your comments at https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/5qNj6sE3Hz or email support@xplorer.rugby. - Rugby Xplorer Team

Not a fan

I just want to easily find scores and schedules.
Bigbriz10Bigbriz10

Response from developer

Hi, You can easily find fixtures and results for your followed entities. More information on following your favourite club, competition and/or rugby body is available here (https://help.xplorer.rugby/article/204-following-entities). - Rugby Xplorer Team

The update is horrible

They’ve made this up so much worse with the new update. Must have a passcode to use? Rugby Xplorer do better
jack3442jack3442

Response from developer

Hi Jack, Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback, and sorry the change has been frustrating. We added the passcode to better protect your personal information in Rugby Xplorer, including participant details, registrations and payment data. Keeping our rugby community’s information safe is a top priority, and this extra step helps stop anyone else getting into your account. For quicker access, you can turn on Face ID or fingerprint unlock in the app, so you won’t need to type your passcode every time. More information in available in the Rugby Xplorer App - You help article (https://help.xplorer.rugby/article/226-rugby-xplorer-app-you). – The Rugby Xplorer Team

Useless

Try to register and add your date of birth. The app just adds a day. Try to search for a group like rugby Australia and get no result. Totally useless.
tingaroundtingaround

Response from developer

Hi, Thanks for flagging both of these, and sorry for the frustration. A date of birth shifting by a day sounds like a bug, and we want to fix it quickly. Could you email support@xplorer.rugby with your device model, OS version and the date you entered? That will help us reproduce it. For search, could you tell us exactly what you searched for and where in the app? Clubs, competitions and organisations like Rugby Australia should be easy to find, and your example will help us improve results. Thanks for helping us make the app better. - Rugby Xplorer Team

:(

If I could revert to the old version I would. Not enjoying the new interface at all!

Response from developer

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. The new app has been refreshed and looks quite different. Let us know how we can improve it. Please share your thoughts at https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/5qNj6sE3Hz or email support@xplorer.rugby. We are updating the app based on user feedback. - Rugby Xplorer Team
