Improvement and Bug Fixes

User reviews

If I could give 0. I would.

Worst retail app I have ever used and I’ve done it all.

Not good

I installed the app on my phone for work and then my phone started glitching. I have a iPhone 11. I deleted it from my phone and it doesn’t glitch anymore.

Absolute nightmare to use

I’m a digital native, and I can’t get this app to work about 95 percent of the time. I download it for a required job, try it for a project or two, then inevitably give up, take my usual photos in my usual work app, complain about this app in the comments, turn in the work and delete this from my phone. Until the next time.

Zero if possible - worst retail app - invasive

This is the worst retail app, the built-in retail apps that each merchandising company uses from their own platform are 1 million times better. Literally the absolute worst. it also tracks your phone every minute as soon as I do a job that needs it I delete it.

Worst app ever

I don’t know what this app is supposed to do that’s any Better than a picture we could take . It tracks ur location always kills your battery. Every time I have to use it for work I delete till the next time I need it . Retailers / merch companies would be better off not to pay for this service (if they do)for any integration to their systems and just have reps submit pics.
