The SPOT App Reviews
Crashes
The Spot device is good but this app will not even open on my iPhone. Just keeps crashing and yes, everything is updated on the iPhone and Spot app. As is, app is useless.
May 29, 2024 app no longer works.
Mine worked fine as of yesterday. Today it shuts down a split second after opening. Tried updating my IPhone 13, deleting the app, powering down my phone then reinstalling the app many times, in many different sequences. My only option now is to use the web based page, which is pretty crappy. I’m online now looking for a different company for my needs.
Needs update ...
App now crashes immediately upon opening IOS 17.4.1
Cannot change colors of assets
This would be great if it actually functioned as it should we have multiple assets and the app does not allow for different colors of the assets except on the desk top version. This makes the functionality of the actual tracking nearly impossible to follow as all the assets are the same color.
Terrible
From the moment I downloaded it never worked.
Not reliable
The batteries that came with my device died in about 10 minutes. App said firmware needed to update but when I plugged the device in it was up to date. Device doesn’t show nor does the history on the app but the location shows on the website. I have yet to figure out how to set text alerts or notifications aside from email. There isn’t an option on the app or the website that I can find and the app doesn’t show up in downloaded apps to turn on notifications.
This app is useless!
I would hope the app would let me setup and configure my spot, change check-in messages, etc while I am on the go. It does none of that. It is simply a viewer - so I can see the messages I already know I sent? What’s the point? Am I missing something here? Looks like instead of an app I have to go to the website and work from there.
CRAP
It does not work. Does not recognize a brand new device. Waste of time.
Buggy
Website sign up fails to disclose username requirement on safari (eg three letter username sign Ups fail, but no error message is displayed.) Website has brain damaged password requirements, fails to accept password manager generated alphabetic passwords App hangs when signing in with account with unverified email App sometimes displays erroneous wrong password error message Rightmost toolbar button gets stuck on loading affordance Do better plz
