Ratings and reviews

Used to be a one-stop shop for reporting issues. Now it seems half the issues are simply links to other agencies (DOT for potholes, ConEd for steam from a pothole). Tech has developed enough APIs, it should be easy to integrate these issues into the app itself. After an app update (not an upgrade) on Dec 19, 2022, fewer integrated report issue problems.

The app designer needs to learn a few things about New York City. Not every request has an address. If an abandoned car is parked under the bridge, how would you put in a service request for that? If the motive is to keep NYC clean and operating, more thought needs to be put in on all the little aspects to help citizens be the eyes and ears of the agencies involved. That means fewer taps and more automated location gathering as soon as a citizen is ready to put in a request.

App used to be okay but now it sucks. Instead of being an actual in-app experience for requests it just sends you to the website forms. I guess that is one way of cutting costs by having the app support be handled by the HTML/website support instead of multi-os mobile app developers.
