The developer shows lack of design skills by building an app using a apst style guide. Looks pretty miserable on any device I use it on. Information is sometimes inaccurate, especially with laundry machines. Will not be using until the developer figures out new design style guides for android.

Please be aware that this app does not display inaccurate information. The source for laundry information, LaundryAlert does not function for Quad at the moment, which may be causing your experience. This app just feeds the user information otherwise provided elsewhere. Also, this app follows the only and official Android style guide from Google.
