NZ Blood Service Donor App for Android
Great App. I received a message letting me know my blood had been used (which was great to hear) however, when I clicked on the message it disappeared. I would have liked to have been able to read it again and have it saved on the App. Thanks.
Very frustrating to receive a notification saying someone has received my donation but when I click on it I can't view the message and it disappears!
i just wish i could figure out how to find my blood type off the app? ive donated but nothing has come up does it take a while? :) all asides its great and ive booked a appointnent through it already
Makes it really easy to book appointments which is great as a plasma donor. One point off for not integrating with my calendar.
App runs great on my old phone (honor 6) but new phone (P9) gets told by play store not available in my country.
Simple and easy to use. My first appointment was booked using this app so it was really easy and not a hassle at all. Great app. Great cause. Satisfied Blood Donor
Couldn't be simpler. I use it all the time.
I love that I can see how many days until next donating. Also being able to make appointments on the go is great!
This is really neat! Does it track platelet donations too?
It looks great. Now i know what you are talking about.
It has yet to let me know that my blood has been used (last donated on the 11/8, while blood) and is also trying to tell me today that I'm eligible to donate now, even though I'm not. Check your dates to avoid being mucked around!
Love this app than previous one, pretty impressive, however, there are still gaps for improvement, like adding BP and Hgb level each donation. All these info are already in NZBS computer systems so won't be too hard to update, and sure it will attract more donor to come and donate.
I love that it's so easy to help people. No special skills required to bleed. App makes it easier. In the States we were offered free lipids test which was fantastic. I'd love to see something similar here.
Helps me to plan rather than waiting for a call. BTW it would be good if the appointment slots showed 0 when full rather than nothing. That way, you get a feel for what time slots are full rather than 'never available'
Been told it will tell you were it has been used can't seam to find any info
This app is amazing A+ highly recommended way better then the old mobile website app
Makes booking and remembering appointments much easier. Highly recommend to those who donate regularly.
Great app, makes it super easy to schedule donations. Good reminders too.
Great app, easy to use. Please sort appointments by date sequence. Thanks
The main reason I got the app and recommended it to others. However, once the notification shows up and you click to open it, it disappears and you can never see it again. Please store the notification in the app so that we can view it properly without it disappearing from the notification tray.
I've registered and received an email confirmation but when I attempt to login I'm told wrong email address. Also, the birthdate entry process is painful
App is 100x better than the last but the date scroll is crap.
Only showing 11 donations I think I'm on 19. Not showing my ones from when I used to get drained at the hospital
Liked it but I almost gave up at the signing-in step trying to enter my date of birth: whoever made the decision to only allow scrolling back One. Month. At. A. Time. needs a refresher on user interface.
I have had no notifications as others have. Does this mean my donations were never used?
Does everything I expected and more. Great for knowing when you can donate again.
This is a really well thought out and designed app. Well done team.
I Hate mucking around and having to jump through hoops. So was delighted to see that the login could be at the beginning, as opposed to the end of the booking process. Which enables donation type, location to be pre-populated saving me time and annoyance. Like another user I didn't like date entry method until I followed his discovery selecting date to bring up keyboard rather than having to scroll through (for me ) 50 years. UPDATE: - have made my first booking on app. App integrates seamlessly with Google Calendar, Maps and phone. Which means I no longer have to manually add to calendar. Just by selecting the booking its all done in the blink of an eye with Time, Date, Location all filled out. Brilliant.
I'm a little disappointed that when you receive a notification about your blood being used it doesn't keep the information. It would be a whole lot better(5stars) if you could monitor how many times your blood has been used.
After bug fixes to get rid of the password problem, the app is easy to use, well laid out and makes booking appointments simple.
Very well designed app, makes keeping track and making bookings very easy. Well done.
I like the app, easy to use. Like the donor id card feature. Hope next time I don't have to bring the card, just show my phone to register. It will be cool. The only reason for not 5 star rating, is the date picker conponent when logging in to input my birthday. I have to click the left arrow handreds of times to pick my birthday... I know I am old :( but can't see how to input birthday quicker. Updated on 17/06/2016: don't know if it's changed in the new version, but when select DOB, I can press on year (top) then get a list of years to select from. It's a little bit tricky, because it's very close to the default date. But still make my life easier to login. Thanks.
Has recorded my date of birth wrong and will not let me edit to correct.
Significantly better than the last app. Booking is smooth and easy. I'm really interested to see how the notification when my blood is used works out. Also, looking back on my donation history from 10+ years ago is a cool feature.
App is 100x better than the last but the date scroll is crap.
Brilliant to have this app for regular donors!
Good work team!
Worked great guns after a reinstall
I jumped on this app hoping it would make donating easier but it says there's an error when I try to register and tells me to reset my password - which I did, then got the same error trying to log in with the new password. The only reason I am no longer a regular donor is because our local nz blood service makes it too hard for working people to donate...one late night a month. What a joke! So far this is no better...
