The Voting App - Represent! SA for Android
Easy to use, very informative. Most of the one star ratings are from people who haven't actually used it, because of a now-fixed glitch. It works great now!
App was all around slow and unresponsive
Once issues resolved, the information was useful and easy to access.
After update, my address is found and app is easy to use. Thank you for fixing that issue.
It doesn't even open on my phone. It just closes as soon as I try to open it.
I was so excited. Heard about the app on the radio. Its probably the worst one I've downloaded. Super slow. Could barely type in address in 2 minutes and it didn't find my address or ballot. Definitely disappointed. Hope next election cycle it's upgraded.
I really want to like this app, but right now it's unusable. It can't find my address and it takes several seconds to respond to any input on a Nexus 6. Will try later after next update
It does not work and freezes should be yanked from the app store
Can't get beyond the first screen. Unable to locate address by text or GPS.
It doesn't recognize my address - we've lived here and voted from this address for over 20 years. Fix it!!!
As many others, wont find my address
There's no ballot information.
Doesn't even open!
I would love to use it, but it can't find my address, either by typing it in or finding my home. San Antonio TX.
Doesn't find address or location
This version of The Voting App serves voters across San Antonio during this 2017 General Election for City Council and Mayor. It features our Video Voters Guide, and voters guides from the League of Women Voters and Move San Antonio. More app functionality is coming online daily. Come back for updates throughout this election.
Cannot find my address and will not all me to register. I am disappointed, hoping to try out the app.
Can't find my address, would be nice if I could just enter my Precinct number!
Error every time I try to register. Tells me it failed to connect.
It comes up with an error message.
I've used this app before for the Houston mayoral elections and referenced it to other people but I've downloaded it multiple times and checked my settings and it can't find my address!?
The app constructs your specific ballot and nearest polling place, with maps and driving instructions. Pros and Con's of propositions, and candidate positions taken from nonpartisan League of Women Voters, which I use anyway. User interface for filling out your ballot is excellent. When done, mail it to yourself and take it into the voting booth. FAQ's and other voter data from LWV or the County Clerk. Only minor complaints: no settings, and no way to easily vote straight party ticket.
When I tried to register and I entered my address, I got an error about an expired certificate. Uninstalled. It's a shame because this looks like a great app. FIX IT!!!!
I can't register; I get a "503: service unavailable: back-end server is at capacity". Hope they fix soon.
Can't find my address or my location to view the ballot. Very disappointed after hearing about this on TPR
I deleted it pretty soon after downloading because it wouldn't even open on my Galaxy S6

Great app very helpful
This version of The Voting App serves Texas Voters better than any voting information app out there. It's the tip of the iceberg of what to expect from ThinkVoting. Special thanks go out to the Texas League of Women Voters, the Houston League of Women Voters, Travis and Nueces County Elections Offices.

It won't allow me to accept the Terms of Use so I can't even acess anything on the app.
Why are you showing voting info from last year????? This doesn't help in 2016
I even can't register
Want to try it but can't remember my password & don't see a link to help with that. Thanks
This is so much better than going to the polls and being blindsided by those minor offices that slip through the cracks. I was able to research the candidates that I wasn't familiar with and come to an informed decision and even found one that I'm really proud to vote for (as opposed to some that were best of the lot). Keep up the good work and I hope to see this in future elections!
The app should have the ballot listed in the "official" order and should also output in that order. It could be confusing for some people to have to search up and down the ballot to match their selections. Some precincts are divided between multiple jurisdictions, and this app doesn't seem to get this...I live in a precinct split between Austin ISD and another district, I was given the AISD candidates while I live in the other district. A lot of promise for a first try, though, and hopefully future iterations will get even better.
Cool premise, and the app works fine. Too bad it thinks my address is in Travis County instead of Williamson.
Maybe they're overloaded because of election day? I just get a message: "Access to your ballot information is currently unavailable. Please try again later or check your internet connection." Also, the location input is too picky. My auto-complete put a space after the city and that caused an error.

Too slow to get any use out of it. Couldn't make it past inputting my address.
