New Version as Advertised – Perkd - Loyalty & Reward Cards Review

Below, you'll find my original review but, thanks to the fact that I had previously e-mailed support and was able to again (despite not being a facebook user), I have changed my rating from one star to four again. As advertised, the new version of Perkd opens much faster and, therefore, it fulfills my needs. Turns out, they had a glitch that caused the app to hang if the network was slow and it was exacerbated by my registered account having disappeared from their records (even though they had my info in their system). The support team tells me that they have a glitch-free update in the approval chain right now. Still not sure why they require the app to have notification capability (since you can turn off reminders in the app itself) or why they only offer support via facebook (if you aren't lucky enough to have already e-mailed them for something) but, for the purpose it exists (in my world), Perkd is a good app and I recommend it. Finally, on the subject of support, once you do get ahold of the Perkd team, they are absolutely fantastic at solving problems! ---------------------------------------- This version was supposed to resolve slow start up but it now stalls at the "Setting up Card Library" screen so epic fail. - a glitch I thought this app was the best of the field and appreciated the customer service but they seem to have been resting on their laurels since Apple's passbook proved to be no threat. - not resting on laurels Oh, and "Perkd Support" is now only available via facebook so thanks for nothing (not everybody uses facebook). - still via e-mail if you happen to have the address
