athenaText Customer Insights

1. It keeps saying there is a new version and you must update but it's already up to date.Never seems to work correctly Updated 4/2022 Recent update appears to be working finally! Let's see how long this lasts update-> 03/03/2023 its broken again .

2. I'll uninstall and reinstall the app and it'll work maybe once then go back to syncing and I can't get in again.As of the latest update (19.7.29) I am constantly getting a pop up in the application stating that I am using an obsolete version and it needs to be updated.

3. This application consistently has new issues time and time again on the Android platform.No notifications.. this app is worthless if I don't know that the triage nurses are trying to get in touch with me.

4. When you click on "Log In" at the bottom right of the screen, a page pops up with 3 options in how to log on: (1) "athenaNet", (2) "Single Sign On" for those with an organization account, and (3) "athenaText" for those who signed up on the mobile app.

5. Looking over other reviews, it is obviously not just my phone.Since update can not access.

6. Update 9/13/2022: This app is still useless most of the time.

7. Very disappointing.Keeps telling me to update and when I try there is no update available.

8. Update 4/8/2023: just uploaded the latest update.

9. It's a race to get the right chat open and scroll to the message I'm looking for before it does.

10. Usually takes multiple tries and force closes.Does not work.

11. It is virtually worthless when I need it to work.
