Strongly dislike this app

I’ve been using service autopilot for nearly 4 years and it has become worse every year. It is slow, sluggish, and often times doesn’t work after extended use. I have used it on both iPhone and android. I had an issue in 2025 where the app would frequently go into the “white screen of death” I call it. I would open the app while it is already open and it would just go white which then forced me to force close it and relaunch it. I’m pretty I spent at least 2-3 hrs of my total work time last year relaunching the app bc of this issue. I was told by the people who maintain the program that my iPhone needed to stay up to date on the latest iOS to mitigate this issue. To some extent they were right but it didn’t completely solve it. Kinda feels like I was a fed a line of bull so that they could avoid admitting their app is poorly optimized. I bought an android in late 2025 and the droid version of this app is even worse. It would pop up with error messages that require u to click ok to get past them and it wasn’t just one. It was a couple dozen and I had to click through each one. This would happen with nearly every picture I had taken until the app would crash. Then I’d spend more time reloading my board which also takes eons to load in and of itself. It was infuriating. The biggest issue this app has is that it gets slower the longer u use it. I think the app collects superfluous data over time and the phone loads that data over and over each time u launch the app and eventually it gets so bogged down with data that u as the user aren’t actively using that it just won’t load anything. I have to reinstall this app twice a year at a minimum to get it to function. I can’t prove that is what it is doing but that is my best guess. I am now on iPhone 17 pro and I haven’t had too many issues with this app thus far but it’s a brand new phone, I wouldn’t expect too many issues on newer hardware, older hardware, good luck. I still see the occasional error message pop up but it’s only one pop up thankfully. Would I ever recommend this app to anyone? Absolutely not, it’s terrible. If I didn’t have to use it for work, I would delete it in a heartbeat.

If I could rate less than one star I would

I’ve been using this app for maybe 2 years now as an employee and it has had consistent issues the entire time. It doesn’t upload jobs and clock in/clock out times to the office. Crashes constantly. Doesn’t load half the time, and just boots you out of the app completely sometimes. After the most recent update I have to log in manually every time and go through the entire startup tutorial every time. Then it’ll just boot you from the app completely while you’re actively at a job and make you re-log in. Absolute nightmare using this. Find another app.

DO NOT USE

I want to chuck my phone every time I use this app. It’s exhausting. Very slow app, extremely buggy. No updates or features on basic things. has the integration of a 10 year-old app. In my opinion, worthless.

Forced to use it

This app is slightly better than a telephone book. Slow as garbage. Constant resets. Bugs everywhere. The idea is awesome and the shell of what its for, but operationally, it can’t function outside of a photo storage for clients. I used to not have issues, now its mainly issues and hardly working. Today no jobs I completed would show as complete. They just stayed there as undone.

Pathetic excuse for an app

This app is purely so they can say they have an app. It does not perform a single function and is entirely useless. I could build a better one with chat gpt. Disgusting and disappointing.
