Ratings and reviews

The app is not fully functional. It wants you to upload photos but doesn't accept common file extensions. It also doesn't have touch feature accessibility,even though they present the logos for that, and the Interests field glitches as you select from their list. Definitely needs some coding work.

Everytime I open it it takes me to a reoccurring event (no date) and asks me to review Golden Opportunity. There is no navigation but Submit. After leaving a "review" it "clears" my review and wants me to do it all again. I see no point to this app in it's current state. The only reason I got the app was because o could not make an event and the automated email from this service "reprimanded" me for not alerting others and suggested I download the app as a means to do so. This could work.

The idea behind Golden Opportunity is great, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. The app is clunky and not extremely user-friendly. It also forces you to leave a rating for anything you participate in, and if you don't leave a 5 star rating, it further forces you to write a comment. Collecting data like this is going to result in bad data. I just give everything 5 stars so I can go do what I was trying to do in the first place and not have more of my time wasted.
