Ratings and reviews

I was using this at an event today, and when I go to checkout with a card, the app keeps telling me to wake up my reader. Then the app closes itself out, and I get a notification that it's crashed. I have to then try again, and MAYBE IT will work this time, which honestly takes a few more times of crashing to work. I eventually got frustrated and used my square app, which takes credit cards faster, and I don't need an extra device as I can use my phone as a tap.

I constantly have connecting issues with the hardware and while using it with customers, you cannot enter amounts with descriptions only, but must select each inventory item. It takes too long to do that and then have connecting issues on top of this. NOT Good! I get very angry customers for having to wait and then worry if their card has been charged for tapping so many times!

Slower interface than expected since transitioning from Square. When you click on one of your collections, sometimes it takes a second or more to load your items. Moreover, there is no way to disable receipt options from the customer facing POS Go. This is an efficiency killer for retail shops and needs to be fixed. I print receipts automatically, so there is no need for the customer to select anything post-sale. Also, why is everything so big? There should be a way to adjust to reduce scrolling
