Solid app, but has room for improvement. It's missing some features that you can get on browser. I feel like digital awards/trophies would also help reward donators, and encourage them want to donate again(5 donations=trophy). Also an update on your blood donation's journeys would be great to see, Ex:if it went to research, a person in need or for funds , so I and others can really know where their donation is going, and how each donation helps. Overall, great layout, loads fast and has barely and bugs. I Hope to see CBS working hard to make upgrades to this app in the future!

The birthday slider takes in a date, then inputs a different date! (day +1) This totally messed up my registration with Blood.ca that's irreversible unless I call it. This is one of the worst mistakes I have seen in an app. 

K70%
by K####:

App is unable to find my location after granting it permission to do so. Can't find any clinics(even manually) so I can't donate!

I70%
by I####:

It's showing me that the next clinics in my area are all 10 months away. I'm sure it's not true. Please fix the searching feature so we can book appointments.

F70%
by F####:

My first and middle name are both places in my first name spot, there doesn't seem to be a way to change it. It's obnoxious when I receive emails that say Eric Anthony.

V70%
by V####:

I primarily use it for scheduling. The integration with my calendar is solid and reminds me appropriately without nagging. Keep developing this app! If you give blood, you'll appreciate it a lot.

W70%
by W####:

I love the app but it uses your ringtone as a notification sound, so I think I'm getting a phone call when it's something that I can ignore for another 43 days.

by K####:

I Like This App, Because It Is Simple And Easy To Navigate Through The App.

Z70%
by Z####:

Works great! The easier you make donation, the better and this app does that.

A70%
by A####:

Works good. Very helpful in managing my donations.

W70%

Easy to navigate through

App would benefit from sync-to-calendar functionality. Also it seems a little behind the times to absolutely require a "home phone" number when signing up for the app, even when you already have my (primary and only) cell number on file. Now the same number is populating both fields, which I'm just going to have to correct in person at the clinic. Just an fyi, your target demographic for this app hasn't had home landlines for years.

The app allowed me to make the account when the password didn't match up. Now even if I reset the password, it's wrong. I have yet to sign in properly... Someone help please?

I70%
by I####:

I'm surprised to see that is syncs to my Google calendar, I'd just like to see it sync a location as well so I can get travel times and time to go notifications

Rating all apps I find that are not movable as one star. Easy fix for developer, I'll change it as soon as you do, your app is not so important to the system that it can't be on SD.

K70%
by K####:

Crashes add can't be used to book an appointment. Also can't find the clinic promoted in an email to me.

W70%
by W####:

This app will be even more useful if donor questionnaire and Q-pass are added.

K70%
by K####:

Too many suspect permissions.

Works great!

Downloaded the app and had someone else's address and birthday attached to my email address. Cannot correct the information without entering my donor card, and when imputing the donor card number it comes up as "cannot update donor card, please try again later or call 1-800- 2 donate. So I cannot see any information regarding my next appointment and cannot see how many days it has been since my last. Samsung Galaxy S5 on Android 6.0.1

For some unknown reason my account is now "unverified" (trust me, I haven't changed identities) and I've tried on numerous occasions to have an email sent to my account to verify with no success. My donor card no longer shows up either because of this. It just happens I luckily had my plastic card with me on a recent visit last week because I usually don't carry it. Not overly happy with this app's performance of late.

K70%
by K####:

Overall the app is quite nice but it would be much better if the donation questionnaire was integrated into the app. The integration would allow donors to easily pull up the completed questionnaire bar code and manage everything from the app.

V70%
by V####:

What is the point of the app if the donor card tab could not replace the physical card? Simply because it's not signed anywhere? It honestly doesn't make a difference for someone to swipe a signed card vs scanned a barcode. Also, can we have the function to do the screening survey on the app instead of doing it via the website? Just a thought.

K70%
by K####:

This app should have the bar code image of the user's donor card so that it can be scanned in your new system. Saves paper and plastic.

K70%
by K####:

I opt to keep my current email as my login and it pops up with a message that confirms, but it won't go past that confirmation. Tried restarting the app, same issue.

P70%
by P####:

I've set up my account but it won't recognize my card number. I did just update everything at my last appointment but everything should be working now.

L70%
by L####:

Don't know why the ports that are used by this app are getting blocked at the firewall in the office. Why is thus app so particular?

K70%
by K####:

Works great, I use it every time!

P70%

App is crashing all the time

U70%

Great app. But would not sync with my phone calendar.

Great app for those that donate regularly

I've confirmed my email like 50 times so far.

*Edit* They have responded to my problem via email and resolved the issue quickly... Worth the download now. Very important app and would be great IF IT WORKED. Sadly, since I booked one appointment, each time I login it says no clinics found. Same with their website. Fix this and will give more stars.

R70%
by R####:

The app is a lot more user friendly to the point that I'm saying, "That was easy," when I book an appointment.

K70%
by K####:

Terrible app. Rarely works to find locations, doesn't update with donations. Use the website, don't bother with the app

K70%
by K####:

a very neat feature, hope this app will keep on progressing for the better

R70%
by R####:

Having repeat trouble logging in despite resetting my password. Plus, the app doesn't show the eligibility info when I click on the links. Guess I will need to stick to the website. Bummer.

I was trying to book an appointment, but it is showing me clinics outside 10 km that I set in the filter.
