P3 Tips 4+

While the reporting is considered anonymous and straightforward, it seems that regular updates to this app to accommodate future iPhone releases are currently outdated and needs more frequent updates to address some major issues with newer releases of the iPhones. For example, in addition to the future iPhone releases, whenever I tried to type something from my phone, it seems to disappear whenever report cancellations appear. I’m very doubtful whether the developer(s) are actually committed to updating the app on a regular basis - I currently don’t see it that way at the moment.

This ‘tip’ app is just as effectual as actual law enforcement! First, you struggle to get the app to understand even the most basic of a information -just like talking to a cop! - and then when you’ve finally gotten the app to accept information, it leaves you empty without any hope- just like talking to a cop!

For being developed by the private sector, I amazed at how much this app *feels* like talking to a cop. Want to needlessly repeat information that will inevitably get misinterpreted? P3’s GOT IT! Love the feeling of reporting ‘crime’ with the fear that nothing will come from it? P3’s GOT IT! As a bonus, do you enjoy basic html forms masked as an app meant to be offered as a way of telling the public that you’re making even the most cursory attempt of doing your own job? P3’s GOT IT, BABY! If you put the P3 *crime stopping interface* and a real cop in the same room, good luck picking out who’s who!

Quite simply, the P3 *crime input system* IS police work. Great job, boys!

Update: several weeks later the app is now showing both tips - the one that was hidden and the replacement (scratches head)
