### 1/5 — Deposit Check function does not work

*2023-07-29*

If not for this issue, I would give the app a 5⭐️ rating because it’s really well done. However, since this issue has not been resolved in at least 3 months, I wonder if the only way to get it fixed is by being a Karen. Fine. I’ll be Karen. Here’s the message I just submitted via the app:
“It is impossible to complete a check deposit through the app. After several attempts at scanning the front side first, I realized I might have more success starting with the back because the app does not scale down to screen size after initiating screen capture. I can’t scroll to the left to see all options. It might have worked had I not gotten (half) an error message. See 2 attachments. This was the size and orientation of the screen and I was unable to shrink it or scroll left once I was out of the welcome page. 

This is very frustrating because it was a known issue PRIOR to the walk back in April. I’m using an iPhone. Maybe it’s an incompatibility issue. Whatever it is, it’s aggravating.”

### 3/5 — This app is buggy!

*2023-04-21*

The app should work more smoothly than it does! Yes, it has collected donations, but it has been impossible for me to deposit the checks that I have. Today, I have had to delete and then reinstall the app every time I have looked at it! I am still committed to the cause. But I am very disappointed in this app! I am using an iPhone 12 Pro Max with the latest iOS.

### 1/5 — really not worth the trouble

*2023-04-19*

This app is painful to use
- half the time when I open it, it’s completely unresponsive
- when it does come up operational, half the time it locks up in one mode or the other
- the one time I managed to get to the screen to deposit a check, it let me take a pix of one side, then locked up in “zoom” mode making it impossible to take a pix of the other side

### 1/5 — I cannot Deposit Checks

*2023-03-02*

Since January 25, I have been attempting to deposit three checks for Walk MS. So far, I’ve $250 to deposit.

The app is not allowing someone with an iPhone to deposit checks. I’ve talked to the NMSS at least twice and emailed several times. Since the beginning, they are aware of the problem and trying to correct. It is so frustrating. I like to deposit checks myself because then I know my account is getting credit.

I was told to try removing the app and reinstalling it. I did and still does not work. I was then told a new app would be created in 2024. This is totally inexcusable!!!

### 1/5 — Facebook

*2022-05-12, version 3.4*

Difficult to post progress

### 1/5 — needs serious work

*2022-04-30, version 3.4*

This app regularly freezes up, and the only way to get it reset is to uninstall and reinstall it

### 1/5 — Mobil App not responding

*2022-04-20, version 3.4*

Email Icon not working. Home page does not open all the time.

### 1/5 — Not happy with this new setup or app

*2022-04-19, version 3.4*

Having a hard time with figuring out the app. I want to send an email with a link to my page and can’t seem to find a way to do it. Very frustrating.

### 2/5 — Fixes needed

*2022-04-04, version 3.4*

Half the time I can’t log in due to incorrect credentials (they’re not) or no events (there are). Then once I’m in, often I’ve raised $0 (I’ve raised over $500) and again no events listed. Really frustrating.

### 2/5 — Registration process/website

*2022-04-02, version 3.4*

Everyone I have recruited on my team, has complained to me about registering for the Walk; in fact, at least one of my members simply won’t mess with it. The thing most complained about, especially with people who’ve been participating in the Walk for several years - their email or password is not recognized. My husband receives emails from you throughout the year, yet when he tried to register, using the same email address, it’s not recognized?! 
This also happens to me, on the website. I’ve established my page, with my team, yet often when I sign in, it also says it’s not recognized. 
Another issue with the website- my team information is usually inaccurate. 
I would understand if this technology was all new to Walk MS, but the app and online registration has been available for many years. Honestly, every year, when the time for Walk MS starts coming up, I dread having to deal with the frustration, and find myself procrastinating contacting and putting my team together. 
I hope that this whole process can someday be simplified and user-friendly. 
Thanks for listening,
Melinda ❤️
