Ratings and reviews

When it's working, it's helpful. unfortunately, more often than not, it's not working. You can't add any new merit badges without an error message popping up and no data saved. You can't check awards as that system is also down. I have tried clearing the cache, un/reinstalling it... unfortunately no luck.

Nice interface for youth to enter their advancements. I wish they could also enter comments before submitting (feature requested). As a leader, all that I see is that they submitted, but I don't always remember when they accomplished the requirement. I like that youth can see more awards that are available, many of which are unknown to them.

An improvement over just doing desktop version on mobile, in most cases, but can be really awkward. It doesn't allow den leaders any control for events or attendance. There is no rhyme or reason to the things it displays on the "front page" - sometimes unfinished stuff, some finished, some never started. You . It would make more sense if you could sort or filter to show each of those categories. They fixed some stuff not loading at all, but it is still glitchy/can be inaccurate.
