Ratings and reviews

I've been using this app for years and never had an issue UNTIL NOW!! I have items that need added to my site, but the app updated on 8/16/24 and it hasn't worked right since! It won't upload a single picture no matter which way I try to do it, no matter where the file is located or what type of file or what size the file is. It won't load them! I can do the description, price, etc. but NO PICTURES. People won't buy if there's no pictures!!

Difficult to use. When I switch to the keypad, there is often an amount. I have to close and restart the app to get it to clear. My business is mobile. I have to charge tax based on the work location and type of job. I can find no way to accommodate this in the app. I usually end up clearing all taxes and charging the total calculated externally. I've already tried the suggestions and my app is always kept up to date.

There's NO WARNING that we can't change the name of business or picture logo more than 3 times, so now the business name stayed WRONG!!! When I send a link to a customer for payment, it DOESN'T alert with an email that a request was sent!! When making a refund it DOESN'T VERIFY the amount before sending it!!! When making a partial refund, it shows the "TOTAL" amount of the transaction as "REFUNDED", not as partially refunded!!! And removed the ability to text with customer support!! 👎🏻🤦🏻‍♂️
