Ratings and reviews

This is a convoluted, complicated and useless app. I tried logging in FIVE times, with the correct password and I get error messages. Update... I cannot see where to make an appointment, just as bad as the website.

Password management is unworkable. I uninstalled the app as a result. If the password update process takes 15-30 minutes and still fails to interoperate with Android, it's a pointless app to have on my phone.

Zero stars doesn't exist. This app sucks. It reminds me of the days before speed dial and calling into the radio station trying to win a prize. You will fail. Always. The validation mechanics are 100% broken. Here's a concept. Let us opt in for Google Wallet already. You can't leave the app without it crashing, freezing, or just creating a frustrating digital loop of inefficiency. Oh wait. Is it supposed to feel like the old DMV? If that's the case, 5 stars.
