Ratings and reviews

Not user-friendly. Has problems from time to time. Doesn't have some addresses you're looking for. They moved from an app to being a shortcut being web-based and in case you're struggling to move around the map, you need to use 2 fingers to scroll across up or down instead of before being 1 finger. So zooming is 2 fingers and moving through the map is also 2 fingers. The map then rotates and then the street names are not in alignment. 🤦‍♂️

Downloaded this app to keep up to date with load shedding but it has failed to predict upcoming load shedding windows for my area several times. The app seems to struggle with changes to stages during the day. Other aspects of the app seem fine, but I haven't made much use of the functionality. This app is a giant leap forward from the previous version - UI and UX. Now if you get the load shedding right, I will leave a 5 star review!

Sorry, how in the world did they manage to make an okay app worse?! Previously it may not have been pretty, but it sort of worked. Now it looks great but has is super slow, hard to navigate, and just worse than the old one. And also, when are they going to add a simple notification setting to alert you in advance for loadshedding (and if it already exists, make it findable)
