Excellent!
Amazing app to find local volunteer opportunities.
App
Very good to search opportunity’s
No opportunities!
Signed up based on the recommendation from my group Alpha Phi Omega. I live in Ohio and there is only one event. It keeps recommending events in Florida and San Diego even though I have my filter set to 50miles. And the sole event for my organization doesn’t even have sign up button, nor do some others. Yeah…another failed partnership by our clueless leadership. No one asked for this.
California Exclusive
I really appreciate the developers for making this app. It’s a great idea, and exactly what I was looking for! Unfortunately, for anyone who doesn’t live in California, this app may not be worth it. Like other people have expressed, I only found a single volunteer opportunity within 50 miles of me, despite the fact that I live next to a major university. Developers, you may want to get into contact with United Way or other big volunteer organizations to alert them to the existence of this app instead of waiting for them to come to you.
Only shows FAR AWAY opportunities
No matter what local zip code I put in, I am shown opporunities from places as far away as San Diego — somewhere that I am nowhere near. Not sure what the reason is. Will keep this app in the background until it can be updated properly. Wish that it would show something like “No opportunities near you” if that is the reason.
Preferences do not work
This app gives me results 4492 miles from me. Yes. That is the distance from Honolulu to Atlanta. It gives me virtual opportunities when virtual opportunities are specifically turned off.
Buggy
seems good but it crashes VER frequently
