Ratings and reviews

First off, why does your list of "posted rules" always time out and ask to reload while I'm looking through them. I can't even select one to look at with the Reload button blanking the screen. I have no issues with any other program and network connectivity, so that tells me it is this program that is at fault.

The location trigger doesn't automatically work unless I use my phone which defeats the purpose as I wanted it to send an sms when I'm within the vicinity. I have made sure it has location permissions with go's accuracy turned on and that it runs in the background. Seems like it's a common problem as other reviewers have reported similar problems.

With the last update, what it does is appear a notification telling me about the action I set, and I have to click it for the action to be actioned (sorry for my English). What I mean is that this app isn't automatic anymore! It doesn't do anything if I don't click on the pop-ups. This app was essential to me, I loved it but now it's useless, sorry. Fix that please 🙏🏾
