Me from Allocate 4+

awful app

absolutely awful, if I didn’t need it for work it’d be immediately gone. you can never log in properly, it probably takes on average 5 attempts for me to get in. if the login screen even shows up, it’s a gamble whether the sign in button will work. if that works, it’s a gamble whether it’ll work when i enter my details (and it NEVER saves my email and password even though I select remember me every time). after that it usually just shows a loading screen indefinitely, again it’s a gamble whether it’ll get to the face id part. if it does it usually gets stuck on a loading screen again. if you ever do make it through all this, the app itself it’s fine, it’s just the worst login and start up process of any app I’ve ever seen, and it has always been this way since my work started using it, in fact if anything it’s getting worse.

I’m currently on my 8th attempt at trying to get into the app and I’m only writing this review so that I don’t throw my phone out of the window. if I could give it less than 1 star I would, whoever made this app had no business being ever touching anything like this with how shockingly poor it is, they ought to join me on the ward floor and do something actually useful.

Unstable

This is the most frustrating App on my phone. If I didn’t need it for work I would not put up with it a moment longer. It regularly crashes or denies access, it will not remember your login and is so unstable it drops out during use. It is not fit for purpose please sort it out! That was my previous review several months on nothing has changed in fact I have had to delete and re down load this app each time I use it as it is so unstable why can this not be improved?? Allocate Me remains not fit for purpose for the love of God please sort it out! Jan 2021 NOTHING HAS CHANGED!!!! What is wrong with this app??? Why can you not improve it. Why doesn’t the NHS invest in better IT systems???? Feb 2021 EVERY time I use this app I have to reinstall it why????? March 2022 nothing has changed! Who has responsibility for this app??? March 2023 STILL DREADFULL NOTHING HAS CHANGED. This am I have deleted and uploaded this appalling app and it still is not working!!!

Terrible, not working, no help available

I was sort of ok with this app to begin with, it would sometimes flash and do weird stuff but if I close the window and reopen again it would work still. Now, for the past two months, it stopped working completely, I use this to book my bank shifts, was seeking help from the trust, but they couldn't do much for me, it's a fault of the app, so because of that I can't book any bank shifts now, which is frustrating and sad. App just stopped working, I can't log in, it appears logging in but then throws me back to the begin screen where it asks to login again, so annoying, hep button doesn't work, there is no help desk or anything I could find on the app or google how to fix it, can't find a way to contact the developer to look into it. Very disappointed, and the lack of support is appalling, I heard my trust is seeking another app to use for the bank staff, and I hope they'll find it soon.
