Thank you for your feedback. Based on user feedback, we have recently updated the app to version 3.0.0 which contains numerous improvements and even more information over previous versions.

Interface Updates Needed

I read through some of the reviews, and I completely agree with them! The interface needs some heavy reworking, and the CAF needs to hire a UX/UI designer and a swift programmer badly. While the info is all there, the app does NOT make browsing or finding info a friendly experience. Heavily used items like CANFORGENS are hidden in menus. And when you do get to them, instead of opening within the app (like an in-app browser) they open via safari, which is not user friendly.

Although updates during COVID have been more frequent, before that this app was an often forgotten task on some poor staffer at ADM(IM) or ADM(PA)‘s monthly task list.

To any generals reading this: this app is a KEY method of communications to CAF members. It is FAR more effective than passing information through the chain of command as we have discovered with Gen Vance’s weekly letters. CAF members finally feel like they’re being kept informed. Now PLEASE fix this app so that using it is not just useful, but functional and enjoyable as well from a user interface design perspective! It is not something you can just push aside saying “the info is there, why does design matter?”
