Ratings and reviews

Notifications are minimal at best. I work in a 24/7 on call situation. We have the typical Noc tier I support with tier II and III on call rotation. Would love for the ability to over ride phone volume and ring tone settings for notifications to be woken up when I'm needed to respond to an active incident in the middle of the night. Our previous incident management tool with all it's faults at least had that capability built into the app.

If all these reviews are admin issues then admins need better instructions for (thoughtfully) configuring something that affects the workflow of a lot of people. Some title fields are left open to text input, while all the text I want is not even selectable. The app does not blank the page as a new page loads, it just shows me something it has stuck in memory while it loads a new page. One handed operation is not great, the menu button is in the top corner then the menu opens from the bottom.

This app is better than Classic at opening and updating tickets. However, I find it to be slower overall, and harder to customize. I would like to see an area where you can access your bookmarked favorites. Also, I would like to see a filter for who the ticket is assigned to when you're looking at your Group's work. It also constantly signs me out and makes me reauthenticate, an issue that the Classic app didn't have.
