Where are these messages? How do I read them? I see that others have the same issue and it’s been going for a while. ### 2/5 — Not great! *2022-10-08, version 2.5.7* I can never log in even though I’ve registered. Notifications stay in the badges even when you can’t see what it’s for. I’m assuming it’s if you’re logged in which it will never let me do. It has potential as the concept is great, but maybe just get it working properly. ### 1/5 — Can’t get it to work *2022-04-29, version 2.5.7* Can’t get the app to work. It can’t find my location, keeps asking me to allow location tracking but there’s nowhere where I can turn this on. Can’t find the restaurants in my town, despite searching by name and suburb. Dud ### 1/5 — Facebook auth failure *2022-04-09, version 2.5.7* Won’t login, can’t log out, can’t use. Have to try delete and reinstall the app. Very very very frustrating!! ### 1/5 — Fraud *2022-01-20, version 2.5.7* This is fraudulent- has taken payment for a restaurant but the restaurant has no link to them! The money has been taken but definitely no food to show just stole $118!!!!!! FRAUDULENT SITE DO NOT ORDER JUST REPORT ### 1/5 — Basic functions missing *2022-01-01, version 2.5.7* Great idea, however; 1. No option to check confirmation of order. 2. No email of order after paying. 3. Notifications to mobile don’t happen. 4. No pickup time indication. ### 1/5 — Cannot sign in *2021-09-28, version 2.5.6* I got this app because my favourite cafe uses it but after downloading and having it for one day I cannot sign in again.
