### 1/5 — Bad version release

*2020-01-24, version 4.4.3*

I have been in zip zap for 3 years and in the beginning the app was great to log onto.  With my guests waiting at my reception to pay the app was quick to log onto and quick to process payment.  But then they released this new version.  What a disaster now it takes so long to log on and get the app to the pay screen.  When one has customers standing waiting it gets embarrassing I wish they would revert back to the old app.  Don’t fix what isn’t broken!

### 1/5 — App not working

*2019-07-10, version 4.4.3*

This app does not open at all since the recent update.

### 1/5 — Latest version

*2019-03-31, version 4.4.3*

The latest updated version won’t open 
Please fix it

### 2/5 — Recent update

*2018-10-29, version 4.3.5*

I’ve been using zipzap for about 2 years now and it worked really well however after the latest iPhone and Samsung update, the app has been giving issues. The app always freezers and then you have to go out and retry a number of times before it works.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2015-11-10, version 2.8I*

I login then the app closes and it does not work.

### 3/5 — Bluetooth still needs work

*2015-05-12, version 2.5I*

I just got this app. I was told that I could use multipel cell phones with one device (one at a time), but it seems the device only remember one cell phone pairing. If you pair another cell phone, you have to re-pair the current cell phone before it will connect to the device. The device also doesn't automatically connect to the device when I open the app, I first have to go to bluetooth settings and say connect and then only will the app connect to the device. On the up side, transactions is very fast. Still waiting to see how long money takes to clear into my account. This app is half way there so Ill rate it a 3 for now.
