Ratings and reviews

Downloaded the app and tried to log in using the exact same information I use on my computer. No good. Says my login failed. Tried multiple times. Still failed. "Showed" my password so I ensured I typed it in correctly. Still failed. This happened when I first signed up for the panel/got the meter for my home. Stopped trying for many many months. This needs to be fixed.

When it works I do get my rewards and have redeem them on multiple occasions. On the other hand however, app keeps crashing every time I try to load it. It doesn't notify me of check in or anything. I have to constantly uninstall and reinstall it over and over again for it to work for one time then it stops working. Support wasn't helpful as all I got in response was "did you uninstall and reinstall it?" like what else is there? The app literally closes the moment I open it.

There are two items that are annoying: 1. When it says "Enable Accessibility data collection," Enable the Accessibility Service for Screenwise. I try every time to figure out how to do that, but I can't figure it out; 2. The second is when I get on the internet, and it repeatedly asks me to sign in when I'm already signed in. Neither happens very often, but it's still often enough to be frustrating. The former didn't start happening until the last year. Other than that, Screenwise is fine.
