Da migliorare

Buona, ma da aggiornare.. a volte gli audio del giorno non compaiono, a volte l diretta si interrompe. Buona nel complesso, da migliorare

A volte apre a volte no, se spengo il telefono e poi lo riaccendo funziona… fate qualche aggiornamento sull’applicazione

Tanto utile, interessante ma....

L’app appare ben strutturata ma soffre di problemi che dovrebbero essere risolti : l’audio, i video, persino ( ed accade spesso) il mancato aggiornamento quotidiano rendono necessaria una attività non rinviabile di aggiornamento.
