LivingWith Reviews

As I registered, I read the terms of agreement. If I read Number 5 uploads correctly, it says I authorize the company to treat anything I upload as public information and can be used for their purposes and I cant revoke that authorization. Read it carefully!!!
I deleted LivingWith and rated it low, solely for that reason.

As the comment below. You agree that they can use ALL your info for marketing etc!

Response was that the policy will change 3/18, but I’m not giving any info under this agreement

Tried using LivingWith today & it’s not working after the opening screen.

LivingWith stinks. It has potential but the interface is clunky and not user-friendly. Glitches and crashes almost every time I use it. I ended up just creating a group chat on Facebook and adding my supporters to the chat. Like I said, it has potential. But until they can fix the problems, look elsewhere.

LivingWith has great potential for me but it won’t let me add supporters. It’s just spins circles and never opens up the SMS option.

Since the last update the notifications have stopped working even with Notifications turned "on".

My first review isn't showing up...and it was prettttty detailed on the "how LivingWith can improve" front. Since I don't know where that review is, I'll reiterate a couple things more succinctly now that I've used LivingWith for a few weeks.

For the positive: Awesome premise, pretty good interface, easy to set up and easy to use! I'm so happy there's something out there like this in time for my cancer "journey", especially after seeing some of the other apps that people are using!

Couple major things that could really improve LivingWith:

1. SUPPORTER REGISTRATION:

At the registration section for new users where supporters get to choose the areas they'd like to help and receive requests: ALL of the areas of help are already selected by default (hi-lighted yellow). Then at the top, it says "Select the areas you would like to help in". I have NUMEROUS friends/family who immediately started "selecting" those areas that they wanted to help in...BUT they didn't realize they were actually de-selecting the areas they wanted to help with. This is a major problem! I had to send out several messages, request tests, and updates to try to communicate with everyone what was happening, and to let them know how to change their areas of help later, bc they thought they'd chosen all the areas to help in, but actually chosen none!

My suggestion there would be to leave everything de-selected at the beginning, then if they don't choose anything, have a pop-up come up that says "Wait, are you sure? You haven't selected anything", Or something to that effect.

2. REQUESTS FOR HELP:

As soon as you put a request for help out, everyone in that help request group is notified. I have a pretty big group of supporters, so thankfully it's only taken a few minutes at most for my requests to be accepted. When this happens though, the request completely disappears from everyone else's list except for the person who accepted it. As a result, NUMEROUS people have said to me "Hey, I saw a request notification but when I opened LivingWith , I looked and looked and there was nothing there."

My suggestion would be to have accepted requests show up on other people's app, even if they aren't the ones who accepted the request. This may seem pointless, but it puts supporters at ease to know there was a request but that someone filled it.

3. CHARACTER COUNT LIMIT:

There is a very small character count limit for the updates, notes and help request details, which is unnecessary and makes things extremely difficult! You also can't hit return in these areas. Please get rid of those limitations!

I was loving LivingWith. Saving me a lot of time updating my support team. However since this last update I can’t seem to figure out how to share my posts with them.

LivingWith looks useful for any chronic illness. Why make it cancer specific?

Also concerned about the privacy portion. Is the data imputed subject to public/business exposure.

LivingWith has information that I’ve never thought about. Who knew grapefruits are not good for you when you’re taking chemo!

LivingWith has been so useful to me. I love the ability to log how I feel day to day that I can build a strong support network. LivingWith is user friendly and a joy to use. Highly recommend.

good to see you such app on app store which ia helpfull for humanity

Thank You SO much for putting this together, for us!

I’m very new to LivingWith but so far I really like and enjoy the concept. I’ll survey again later after I’ve used it for a while, so stay tuned!

I like being able to keep track of my moods and pain in a very simple way.?I like the quotes which greet me after a long day of stress and frustration !
