## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Won’t download. I just have a white screen.

*2024-10-22, version 1821*

I’ve deleted it twice and redownloaded back. I have the app showing but when I try to open I have a white screen. I’m opening my chart using the web

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-10-04*

Needs an update because the app does not boot up and have a blank screen

### 1/5 — App does not work properly

*2023-01-02, version 1819*

So, installed the app to do things the developers said it would do.

If one needs items outside of “legacy” WVU Medicine hospitals, it might work.  But using it on an iPhone SE with most recent iOS update, it doesn’t work.

I could not access items pertaining to WVU Medicine Reynolds Memorial Hospital, even though the App Store description said information concerning services at that hospital were available.

You cannot select “WVU Reynolds Memorial Hospital” in the menu settings.

App Fail.  Would give zero stars if I could.

### 1/5 — Surgery tracker

*2022-09-15, version 1769*

Worthless-cannot get the patient # to load. Staff says it happens all the time

### 1/5 — App not working

*2022-08-15, version 1747*

Couldn’t get app to allow me to put in tracking number in the search bar..Plz fix

### 1/5 — Dose not support iPhone SE 2020

*2022-05-03, version 1733*

Cannot enter tracking number onto an iPhone SE. works fine on iPhone 13 mini

### 1/5 — Can never log in

*2022-01-31, version 1687*

Worst app ever. Can never log in as an employee. IT was able to help previously but tried to log in for employee health/COVID and nothing but “Login failed” messages.

### 1/5 — Poor App

*2020-01-31, version 1.2.3*

Application is buggy and provides no information for inside and outside clinics in Morgantown. No contact numbers or anything else listed for help with hospital locations if a patient is lost or disoriented on the large medical campus.

### 2/5 — Unusable

*2022-07-19, version 1747*

I’m in an iPhone 8, and I always keep it updated with the latest software version. My daughter went in for surgery this morning, and I downloaded the app to keep track of how she’s doing. Sadly, I can’t even enter the number given to track her surgery: the “Go” button is placed directly on top of the field where you enter the number. There is no possible way to enter the number and track anything. Had to delete the app, and now I just wait.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work on second generation iPhone SE

*2022-06-16, version 1747*

On the screen to enter the tracking number for a surgery patient, tapping the tracking number Field on my second generation iPhone SE never opens a keyboard allowing me to enter the number. Thus, it is unusable for me.
