Ratings and reviews

I love seeing the 'blood journey' but making appointments on the app is very rough. If I select a location and change my kind, if I select the "back" button I have to start the search all over. It should take me back to the previously searched list, not back to the start of the search. That part of the app is painful, but I like the rest.

I have an appointment today for a platelet donation. I received an email to complete the "RapidPass". Since I was on my tablet, I completed it there. Last time the center could not read the pass as it was too large. So I pulled up a copy I had emailed myself on my smaller phone screen. Today I was not able to print or save the rapid pass, so I opened my phone app. It shows that I have to complete the RapidPass all over again. Why doesn't the app speak to each one another? This is not convenient

I find the app easy to use in general. Scheduling is intuitive which is very helpful. However, the rapid pass is hit and miss. I've had to restart every time. And, at the end the QR doesn't always show on the screen. I believe it's a Wi-Fi issue, which isn't always available at the donation sites. Best to do before you arrive and screenshot.
