Active Blackpool Council 17+

I started going to the feed good factory about six weeks ago. The people are so friendly and we have a laugh! The equipment is not hard to use and safe. There is always someone there to help and support me. It gets me out and helps me with my mental health as well. Thank you so much.

If I could choose a star rating of zero for this app, I would do. The only positive thing to say about it is that you can actually download it from the App Store, though from the looks of things, it looks as if it hasn’t been updated for two or so years. Upon opening the app, I was able to choose the appropriate sports centre near to my home, but after that, there was simply a screen full of buttons that had not been labelled at all. On tapping on one of these buttons, I could discern no different from the screen before. To the developer, you really have not tested this app out with voice-over which is screen reading technology built into Apple that enables those of us with little to no site to interact with an app. As Blackpool is trying hard, and has received grants to improve its access ability, this is an absolute must. Sport Blackpool are apparently trying to make their sport more inclusive to those of us with disability. You will do well to start with this app. We can’t book any cycle track time or access swim timetables et cetera. Extremely poor.

Oh dear.
I swim and that the website redirects me to this app, as the only source of information.
It takes a long time to access basic info re swimming. The entries overlap, so you can’t get info at a glance.
And where’s the list of pool closures?
Can you still access the full A4 printed timetable? They are available on paper at the pool, and have been on line too. They are better than this app.
Just like the keypads on the lockers, having to use this app makes it harder to use the pools, not easier.
