Ratings and reviews

I wish to give it 5 Stars. The app is very useful and it works when you need it most to work, but there's a bug in the software. When a notification is displayed, if you click on the notification the app opens to the main page but it doesn't load to the information displayed. From there, you are better off not tapping on the notification because finding the information is very difficult in this app.

this application cannot be login, i try multiple time, every time it stuck in somewhere and never go into login page after verification code, please fix this as soon as possible.

I am waiting and still waiting, I have a very important Vfs appointment at qatar.. but still showing pending status. I dont know, what kind of application process is this... they say 3 to 7 processing days. but it's nearly 2 months and they are not getting serious anyways.. whenever, I make a call they spent their time in saying that we apologise for service, instead of wasting time on apology, they better spent time in application process..
