## What is Waitbird (customer/patient)?

Waitbird - no more waiting in line ...

You don't feel like waiting in overcrowded waiting rooms, stuffy waiting areas or long queues and would prefer to use your time productively? 

The Waitbird app is the perfect solution for you!

At the doctor, an authority, the hairdresser's, the car dealership or in a restaurant: We spend an average of 6 months waiting in queues during our lives.

The Waitbird app offers the possibility to reduce this unwanted waste of time by offering an intelligent management of queues. It gives you the ability to convert waiting time into productive time as you can leave the queue and the waiting area.
You will receive a notification via your Waitbird app as soon as it is your turn to return. 

Ask your doctor, your authority, your hairdresser, your car dealership or your restaurant about their Waitbird app and simply use their Waitbird QR code.

Three simple steps are necessary for you as a customer:

1. Download the Waitbird app and enter your personal data

2. Scan the Waitbird QR code of the queue and confirm your entry to the waiting list.

3. Done! You will be automatically notified in your Waitbird app as soon as your waiting time is over and you are next in line

### 1/5 — Schlecht

*2025-12-22, version 2.0.1*

Absolut unpraktisch

### 2/5 — Verbesserung bedürftig

*2024-09-23, version 2.0.1*

Habe bei einem Arztbesuch um Wartezeit zu reduzieren installieren müssen. Habe mich beim Arzt angemeldet und bin gegangen. Ich sollte laut Mitarbeiterin eine Nachricht bekommen sollen. Nachricht habe ich leider nicht bekommen. Sondern wo ich zufällig App geöffnet habe, da blinkte es: das ich seit 30 Minuten erwartet werde. Schnell zum Arzt geeilt, da hat es geheißen: nee es sind noch 5 Patienten vor Ihnen :-)) Idee ist schön, aber verbesserungsbedürftig.

### 5/5 — Sehr gute App, so kann man die Wartezeit richtig sinnvoll nutzen

*2024-09-16, version 2.0.1*

👍🏻

### 5/5 — Äußerst praktisch

*2021-10-23, version 2.0.0*

Jeder Arzt sollte das anbieten.

### 5/5 — Tolle Lösung

*2019-09-02, version 1.0*

Einfach die Wartezeit irgendwo genießen, tolles System
