| 2024-12-15 |  | | It's great now that the platelet has now been added to this app. When I moved from donating blood to platelets, I couldn't use this app anymore to make or track an appointment, which was a shame and waste of a good system. Well done now easy to book and keep track |
| 2024-12-10 |  | | Hi. The app is no longer working properly. I keep receiving the message " Sorry there is a problem with the Service Please try again later". I had a colleague try his app and he receives the same message so it isn't just me. This was working about 2-3 Months ago. Had to uninstall it and log in using the browser. Tried to reinstall and still get the same issue. Have uninstalled until fixed. Thank you. |
| 2024-11-29 |  | | Simple, intuitive and easy to use. Makes booking next appointment very easy. |
| 2024-11-26 |  | | Easy to use, easy to change my appointment if needed too. Really good user friendly app. |
| 2024-11-21 |  | | As a platelet donor, being able to use the app for appointments is nothing short of transformational! It's easy to navigate and contains helpful information and clear guidance. |
| 2024-11-20 |  | | The staff are SUPER nice as a first time donor. This leads me to believe that they're always nice. I'm quite scared of the pain and usually talk a lot to distract myself and the woman I had accompanied me and accommodated to it with ease! Just booked my 2nd donation and the pain is defo not as bad as what I thought! Awesome staff service and very quick with a sweet treat after. |
| 2024-11-17 |  | | This app was a great convince when I was donating whole blood. After I switched to donating platelets it was not of any use to me, but recently got updated and now I can use it to book my platelets donations as well. |
| 2024-11-05 |  | | Great app to make my appointments and upload to my calendar but I can't find how to swap between making blood and plasma donations. Any suggestions welcome! 🤔 |
| 2024-11-03 |  | | Absolutely useless if you're a platelet donor. Rearranged a platelet appointment and it turned into a blood donation. Also cannot find a way to book a fresh platelet appointment just ising the app |
| 2024-10-23 |  | | Easy to use, well thought out UI and allows me to quickly book my next appointment. Android version can add the booking details to your MS, Google or Samsung calendar. |
