“Every time I see that this app has updated, I check to see if it’s finally fixed. And, every time I try to log in, it spools forever until giving the “Oops!” message. Looking through the reviews, it is CLEARLY not an isolated issue. So, my question is: How many times do you need to be told that there is a problem before you fix the app? Maybe I’m uniquely blessed, but yours is the single, solita…”MediacomConnect
“Is there a reason why the app keeps spazzing out on me? After a few minutes of looking for whatever it starts to go blank and or flash the images and then the app crashes and closes. Prompting me to reopen and try and find where i was or the last item i was looking at. This has been going on for quite awhile now and i was hoping it would fix itself but it hasn’t. This is all day every day. It’s qu…”Amazon Shopping
“It’s a common practice among tech companies nowadays to have a website that is slow and buggy to encourage users to use a mobile app instead. When I first started using this app, I assumed that this is what Boost must be doing, simply making a bad app to get me to use their website. Despite the complete train wreck that is this horrible mobile application, I was wrong. Before getting into the det…”Boost Mobile
“I’m not dragging this out long I’m just going to say this…privacy, transparency, accountability, service and trust? Absolutely negative for me. This isn’t a minor one time issue, it’s on the regular and I’m fed all the way up. The app? This never displays my bill the way they say that it’s supposed to. I call and they say one thing and I reassure them that my comprehension and reading skills are a…”Boost Mobile
“Horrible! I am not able to change setting in the app! Constant message saying cannot contact server!!! What’s worse is they charge for this trash! Does not block spam texts! I have it set in the app to not allow voicemail, but spam callers who I have already reported and blocked using the app are still able to leave voicemail! I receive over a dozen spam texts a day. I have reported and blocke…”Verizon Call Filter
“This setup should be “focus group tested” before release to the customer. My bet is the direction/help will be trashed by everyone with no previous knowledge of the app. 1. The on screen instructions are incomplete (they don’t state what to do, only a part of requirements). Remember (which help & technical writers have a real problem with): DEFINE EACH STEP & WHAT IS EXPECTED: The KISS METHO…”Verizon Family
“You took a perfectly functional app that’s served our family well for the last several years and replaced it with this mess which greatly pales in comparison. From login glitches to unwanted, unstoppable notifications completely unrelated to my child’s watch, they’ve added annoyance rather than convenience. I don’t need advice on parenting or updates on current trends, and using this app as a vess…”Verizon Family
