Ratings and reviews

**EDIT- updating my original review of two stars. Per the response of the developer, I tried disconnecting Health Connect, and that seems to have worked so far. Still only 4 stars because I wish it was more compatible with android when it comes to syncing steps, or at least more user-friendly if it is just a user error.

Not code hardened. Synch problems. Hi guys, working with Aus Unis myself, I appreciate what you have tried to do and understand code dev within Uni environment. Having said that, there is a rule along the lines of unis should stick to deeper algorithm development, data analysis and interpretation and leave it to industry to code harden, roll out and actively supprt apps ---- it's a much better look lane to swim in and helps to stay clear of problems like this.

Unable to properly log steps using app (doesn't transfer to log properly). Very hard to read dashboard etc - layout isn't very user friendly and doesn't fit screen. Fix those 2 things and I would happily use app. As it is - gave up on it and went back to using laptop. Since 15/6/19. app wont even open!
