Ratings and reviews

I used to use this app all the time whenever I spotted an interesting car and wanted to know what it was, and to buy checks on cars before I bought them. I loved it. Now however, I see a nice car, put the reg in, then it says I'm not logged in and loses the reg I'd put in, by which time the car has often gone and my short term memory is useless! Very poor user experience now. Now I can't even log back into it. Very frustrating. Such a shame.

01/07/20: all problems are now fixed. It is a good app, they have made a few things you have to pay for but you can get the basic info. Very happy with it at the moment, especially the valuations. 01/04/20:Doesn't work anymore. Edit: it keeps logging me out and won't let me log back in, I have a friend with the same problem. The only way to fix is it keep changing the password multiple times then it is fine for a little bit.

Previously the app would let you see a cars full specs for free, but with the new update you must pay for this. Also you need to make an account to use the app now, with no option to skip. Interface looks better, but overall I think the app is a downgrade compared to the older version .
