This app is just okay. If the city would go out and let someone professionally work on it, this app could be amazing and incredibly helpful to cleaning up and fixing issues in this city. I have gotten a handful of things taken care of over the last year that I’ve reported but the map is a mess and sometimes it’s just a nightmare to pinpoint the location that need aid. The best results I’ve had with this app are for trash pickup. And there are plenty of requests to be made with the massive heaps of trash all over this city because apparently the city of Los Angeles is one giant dumpster to its inhabitants.

Stop complaining that the city and it’s bureaucrats and politicians don’t do anything! You can use this app to report all kinds of public nuisances, and be completely amazed when things get fixed in less than a week. I have great success reporting potholes, tags, and badly parked scooters. Scooters will be picked up in hours, tags and potholes within a week.
Now, if we could only dial in an option for parking enforcement. With the camera and geolocation built in, all the information parking enforcement needs is right there in the app, but for some reason, we still have to call in, and wait for an operator, to report someone blocking a driveway.

I made 4 service request over 18 months ago regarding several street lights that have been out. These lights had already been inoperable for several months before I made the request. The service request are still labeled open and no one has come to fix any of the lights on Los Angeles St. In Downtown LA. I spoke with some city workers in person about 8 months ago that were fixing some lights around the corner whom said that wasn't their jurisdiction but that they would make sure the appropriate team got the message. They said that people steal the copper wires from the lights andtheys why they don't work even after they are fixed supposedly it happened again. I could make a list of possible resolutions to this but whats the point if the request are to be ignored?!
