The Vitalant Blood Donor App helps you save lives on the go! *Please note: if you are in New Jersey or New York, you will not be able to update to the app but we are working to integrate those states. While a donor in one of those states could download the app, they will not be able to use the app.
Finding location
I think it was too difficult to find the location that I want to give blood at . It might be nice if you remembered the place I last gave because that’s usually where I go.
New Version is buggy and slow
The previous version worked well. This new version is buggy and slow. I guess we are beta-testing it. I gave it 2 stars because eventually I was able to make an appointment. It took 3 tries and twice as long but it finally worked.
Clunky
App doesn’t respond well to Vitalant offer notifications. Scheduling is erratic, not flexible or user friendly. Needs improvement.
Too complicated to make appointments
The app functions OK except for the inability to make appointments, my primary use for this app. I always end up calling, because after I choose the location, the app glitches when I select a date and request all available appointments - it forces me to choose morning, afternoon, or evening. When I choose *afternoon*, I get a message that “there are no appointments available on that day in the *morning*. It fails to show any openings on a series of selected dates. Useless.
Pullover shirt promotion
I gave two power red donations during the qualifying period last year. The promotion details stated the shirts would be available in January 2024. I called on January 15th and was told details would be sent by the end of the month. I called again at the end of the month and I was told they would look into why I wasn’t contacted. I forgot about it until I became eligible for another donation and now it turns out I’m too late. That’s not fair. I did more than live up to my part of the bargain.
Convenient and easy
Makes donating a simple and streamlined process.
Used to work
Was able to make appts on the app, which is nice. Though now it’s rather buggy and crashes for no reason on my iPhone 12, rendering the app useless. Please fix!!!
