User reviews

Auf Schweiz begrenzt

Leider scheint die App nur für die Schweiz zu funktionieren. Ansonsten scheint sie ordentlich zu sein und zu funktionieren. Das User Interface ist nicht das modernste aber darauf kommt es bei dieser App auch nicht an

“no internet connection”

🤔

😴

Die App ist so aktiv wie ne zecke im Winter, für Infos über Zecken taugt sie noch was.

Too bad

Cannot connect to the server to send a report, no matter which network I try. Too bad! Saying nothing about the fact that the technical support does not reply / check the reviews. This basically deserves negative score :-P

Eigentlich eine coole App

Sollte allerdings bekannter sein, sonst macht es weniger Sinn.

Ganz wichtig fände ich, dass bei der Entsorgung der Zecke nicht nur steht, dass sie in den Müll und nicht auf den Kompost soll, sondern dass explizit erwähnt wird, dass man das Vieh vorher unbedingt töten muss! Am besten mit dem Feuerzeug! Die lassen sich weder ertränken und meistens auch nicht zerquetschen! Die krabbelt da sonst wieder raus und sticht erneut jemanden!
