I have only recently started worming with Papa Pals and the app, and so far, everything has been great! I have had no issues with the app itself (Samsung phone for reference) and whenever I've run into situations (like forgetting to start the visit because the member is outside waiting for me) the support line people have been especially helpful. I was little nervous at first but all the members homes I have been to, the have been welcoming and easy to work with. So far, I love it!

If I could give the app less than 1 star I would. (I've only been working with Papa Pal for 2 full months, just for some context.) It crashes often (at least once every week or so). The app will fail to even load and the only solution I've found is to uninstall and then reinstall the app. I do this every 3 weeks or so. I am currently trying to get the app to work and have tried the uninstall/reinstall method and it still won't load. I'm worried that this will happen during a call and I won't be able to complete the surveys or get my time recorded. This app needs a LOT of troubleshooting urgently.

This app is going to want you to change the Location setting from "Allow only when using~" to "Allow all of the time". If you skip the change it'll pop up everytime I open the app. Keep it as " Obly when using". If you agree to allow it to access the location all the time it will literally track you 24/7. Doesn't matter if you don't have a visit scheduled with a client til next Tuesday and it's Thursday, it's tracking you. I had to force stop to close the notification but it eventually restart.
