Accurate for loadshedding. Ads are NOISY and intrusive. When you open a tweet notification and then click back it closes the app (and plays a noisy ad) instead of showing you the loadshedding times page. Even if I paid for it, I would still want to go from a notification to the tweets to the schedule, not out of the app once I press back from the tweets. I don't buy apps where coders deliberately try to annoy me with noisy ads. Entice me don't annoy me. ***UPDATE*** The ads are silent now! 🙏🏼

The noisy ads are an issue on Google's side. We have removed them earlier today as we have not yet received feedback from Google on this issue. There was no deliberate intention on our side to annoy users. Thank you for pointing out the issue relating to opening the app from a Tweet notification. We will look into that as well.

I have been using this reliable app since 2020. Not only is it free, but also flexible: convenient and multi-area functional. I love it. I rated this app two years ago (April 2022) My view of the app, since then, has not changed. The app loads fast, it is reliable, and free. And I have never experienced any buggy behavior. I am grateful to the developers for this elegant piece of software.

It worked well and at one time was the best loadshedding app. Then it started to show loadshedding times for my area 2 hours later than when loadshedding started. I have updated the application and it is still faulty. The Eskom S. P. app is accurate so why can't this show the correct times as you used to?
