1. 2/5Great concept but app is nearly unusable

   Registration is weird because it stops you from retyping the password in any field after you make a mistake once. Then when you finally get in, the ability to filter fruit types just plain does not work. Also despite the name, people have submitted a ton of non-edible trees! So I see hits all over my neighborhood, but on closer inspection they are actually an oak, Madrone, dogwood, hawthorn or any number of other trees that are obviously not fruit and, with the exception of acorns if you are extremely desperate, not even edible. Considering that this app costs money, I was expecting it to actually do the basic things it says. But the addition of non-fruit trees that cannot be filtered separately from fruit trees makes it worse than useless.

2. 1/5Doesn’t work

   UPDATE-Having attempted to use the app more, indeed it has many flaws that make it pretty useless :-c Original thoughts= Began using this app on Sep 25, 2021. Due to the well-written negative reviews I was hesitant to buy the app, but I really wanted to support the concept so I figured 4$ was worth the risk. Fortunately, SO FAR, everything is working as intended. The initial registration email took a bit longer to arrive than modern expectations allow patience for but it did arrive within the hour and I signed into the app without issue. The map content, for me living in a densely populated city, could leave something to be desired, but that isn’t the app’s fault since it’s user sourced content-if you want the app to have UTD local content, don’t complain others haven’t served it to you; get out there and participate. The content is only as good as we make it!

3. 2/5So much promise. But severely lacking

   You can tell this app is someone’s side hobby. Someone with limited app development skills. Super bugged, extremely tedious. Always resets to Boulder Colorado upon opening. Has a filter by fruit search that never works so there are often dozens of tags that you have to click on to find your fruit of interest and even when you find something, you can’t save that tag for future reference. Almost not useful features. I would hope that since it’s a paid app, some of that money would go into development. Overall a great concept that is unique and in need, but barely usable due to poor app design.

4. 5/5Great! (after creating account via web browser)

   Based on previous reviews (thanks, everyone!), I first created my account view web browser and did the email confirmation. Then I downloaded the app and entered my account info. So far, everything is working great. I am really excited about summer forays around town, working with both Falling Fruit and Litterati! (I gave 5 stars to encourage folks to try again. Maybe create a different account via web browser. Then the app should be useable.)

5. 1/5App is faulty

   I was so excited about the potential of this app so you can imagine my disappointment that I cannot even use it. I signed up as instructed and clicked the Send Confirmation button and I waited. And waited. And am still waiting a day later. I tried to sign in but it doesn't recognize my email address since I never got the confirmation email. I tried to re-register but it won't let me due to the fact that my email address has already been used. I went on App Support and tried 5 times to have the confirmation re-sent. All to no avail. And what it the most disappointing aspect is that there is no way to even use the App without completing registration. Very disappointing.
