A complete disaster of an app. Crashes everytime I switch to a different app, and I have to restart it. For how integral it is to my job, it really adds a lot of annoyance Sad that this is a standard app for the industry and this is the best they can do.

I've never used a slower app in my life. Every click is a new 2 minute loading screen. 1 photo uploaded maybe per minute or two. Wifi or not this app sucks, day and night, 4g or 5g. Straight trash. Edit: no the update has made it worse and the photos display is less functional with the new update, it's crashed 2 times in the last 30 minutes alone. Still trash.

After the update it takes 4 times as long to upload photos on mobile. You are now no longer able to use regular data you need high-speed data to even upload one photo per 60 seconds. Absurd, we don't care about picture quality we want to upload out photos and do the assignments quickly and THATS IT. make the photo uploading process and assignment completions easier. That's all we want FFS
