### 1/5 — Steve14

*2022-05-13, version 8.3.518*

This is rubbish

### 2/5 — Poor customer service

*2021-09-08, version 8.1.399*

Software is okay, a little bit slow but not as slow as the company answering their phone - or not answering should I say!

### 1/5 — Shockingly bad

*2020-03-11, version 7.1.64*

I’ve just had to update to this version and it’s terrible. I use it on an iPhone. Clicking the tick after an action does nothing most of the time. I have to click the cancel button but find the data stored. Sometimes I can only select close or return and can’t enter details or signature without resetting the phone/app multiple times. Did you actually test this before putting it out? I’m wasting so much time just trying to close jobs at the minute. Please fix this
