I have used apps for other apartments before. The last one I used a good interface and was hardly ever glitchy. But with this app each time I use it I have to not only re login like it’s the first time but the majority of the time it doesn’t even load the actual part of this app. I just get a white screen, I have tried resetting the app and even turning off my phone but I just have to try again at a later time. I do like that you can do whatever you could possibly need through the app for your apartment. But for the most part I don’t really use those features more so just paying the rent. So once a month I have to run into this same issue over and over again. Also I don’t know if it’s just the place I live at or this actual app but the service fee for using a debit card is so high. My other apartment app only cost me 3.75 this one is asking for 86??!!! For what? It doesn’t even work half the time. This app is pretty much garbage. Like I said earlier I love the things you can do on the app but if you can never use it what’s the point.

I’ve only been using the app for a couple months to pay rent. The app is in serious need of an update to fix stability and the constant crashing. Pages won’t load properly and it took days for the app or webpage to work in the proper manner. A couple times it said online it was unable to access page and to check the address and retry. That’s just unacceptable. How can companies expect us to use this app to do things when it’s not easy to figure out and has a ton of stability issues. When scrolling through a page, it goes out of the ‘box’ on screen like it wasn’t programmed properly and it was half minded in development. Thoroughly unimpressed. If you have to download it like I did, I am sorry. Just know it’ll be very glitchy. Also, don’t expect your landlord to be able to offer any assistance as mine told me ‘idk’ when asked what I should do with the app not working properly. Just wanted to share my opinion on this app. I hope they can fix all these issues and deliver a proper product. Otherwise they should just use Venmo or cash app instead for mobile rent payment.

This app is a terrible user experience and it just keeps getting worse.

At login, I must click the login button before I can enter credentials (poor flow - just let the user immediately add them) and am taken to an email entry and password page. After entering my email and password, I am taken to an external web page to do it all again (seriously!?).

If I attempt to use biometrics (which I set up twice before) to login, the app crashes.

The UI in general seems as though they threw an app wrapper around a desktop website. There are areas where items overflow the viewport. The app scroll is buggy.

Many of the workflows have dead ends or crash when I try to return to the main page.

Many UI elements are too small. The icons and buttons are smaller than my fingers; and I have small hands. The page slide menu feels squished. It’s obvious this was not created with any though for how the user would be using it and it definitely was not designed for mobile.

When I try to delete a message, the entire screen horizontally scrolls and shows all delete buttons. When I press delete it does not always work and I need to press multiple times.

Etc, etc…

It seems this app was thrown together and is not maintained.

It’s not worth putting on you phone. Use the desktop web app. Or better yet, ask your property managers to choose another platform for community engagement.
