User Experience has a lot of room for improvement

- The feature to download to your calendar doesn’t work for iOS.
- There is no way to see all of the things you have signed up for in a single place.
- There doesn’t seem to be any way to contact the organization via the app or the web site. I’d be happy to leave more detailed feedback if that were the case.

Feel free to contact me for more information

It should not be this hard to reset a password

I forgot my password and I need to reset it. What’s the point in sending my a link to reset it if the link doesn’t actually got to a reset page? Also, you can’t reset it if you don’t know your current password which is frustrating. If I can verify that it’s my account then I should be allowed to change my password.

Volunteering in the 21st century

This app is bringing the volunteer movement up to speed with modern technology. For too long I’ve had to use antiquated methods to find and sign up to serve in my community. If we want more people to give their free time to volunteer it should be EASY and VOMO has done just that. All I had to do was download the app, create my volunteer profile, and (using geolocation) search for volunteer opportunities nearby. I love it!

Can we get VOMO reps?

How I came across this app: I just listened to a Q talk where the founder shared the benefits of communities using this app to collectively help them flourish.

I work in State College, PA. After downloading and setting my location, I was sad to see that the nearest VOMO volunteer opportunity is 2 hours away.

What would be some next steps to help connect volunteer opportunities in State College to this app? I’d love to be a resource for this area.

Easiest way to volunteer

I love volunteering in my community. When I find out that I could volunteer with an app I was curious. VOMO makes it easy to find and sign up for volunteer projects in just three clicks. There are a bunch of projects nearby from nonprofits and churches and businesses. Looking forward to volunteering even more!

Great app!

Brilliant every time. Feel safe getting in contact with people via the app and website. Have done 2 VOMOs so far and have 1 more coming up and not had a problem with any. Would totally recommend.

SIMPLE AND EASY

Easy to use, Iike it very mu h so far specially it's been helpful because since it can see your location then it gives you the options nearby and this has made a diference.

App needs some help on Apple at least

This app is much MUCH better in a web browser. On a mobile device it’s near impossible to do much more than indicate you are going to an event. So it may be fine for getting ten folks signed up for a yard clean up event, but if you want 3 to bring rakes, two to bring trimmers (and heaven forbid you need multiple kinds of trimmers), etc., it doesn’t work. The app can take input but it doesn’t give a person much information.

Hi Mutt527,

Thank you for your feedback. One of our core values is “we are always improving”, so we will take this feedback seriously in future updates of the VOMO app.

As you noticed the VOMO app is built for volunteers to find and signup for projects in as little as 3 clicks, but the web experience has many more tools for helping volunteer signups. We do however, allow for signing up for different Roles on the app, so we can definitely help you make sure that your example project is easily setup on the website and signed up for the on the app.

Please contact your VOMO Concierge with any questions about specifics on projects with custom roles. Call 214-973-5056 or email us at sipport@vomo.org.

Thanks!
The VOMO Concierge Team

Push notifications are a lifesaver

Totally forgot I signed up for a project but a notification popped up in plenty of time to remind me the event was coming up.

Developer Response ,

Hi Nuimnb, thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear that our push notifications worked as intended to remind you for your Volunteer Serving Date! We hope you enjoyed your experience and will volunteer again soon. If you have any questions along your way, do not hesitate to email support@vomo.org. We are here to help.
