Why still not fixed?

I have to delete and reinstall every single day - can only get one or two uses out of it before it freezes. This is completely unacceptable for a safeguarding app - having to delete and reinstall in a child protection meeting in front of social workers and police was utterly ridiculous. I have contacted CPOMS several times and they have done nothing.

Obviously don’t care!

Despite all the reviews about the need to delete reinstall this app, it is still a problem. If I had my chance again I would not have bought in CPOMs.

Very poor

When opened to authenticate does not load. Constantly have to close app and reopen. Just such a poor functionality

Very poor

Same issue as everyone else, have to constantly delete and reinstall after a couple of uses. This has been going on for a long time now and needs fixing.

Unreliable

Unfortunately, virtually every time I go to elevate my access using the app, it doesn’t work and I have to delete it and re-download it.

Poor

Constantly gets stuck on loading screen so it’s not possible to get into app without reinstalling daily.

Never works!

Constantly have to delete and re install same as everyone else on here so please update the app to fix this. There are plenty of authenticator apps out there that work so I’m sure someone can work out how to sort this.

Doesn’t work

This app only seems to work when I reload it, then I get about 2 or 3 successful attempts before it crashes again. Very frustrating.

Not good

Every time I go to the Authenticator on my phone it doesn’t give me the password and I have to download it again from the AppStore. Nobody has been able to sort it. Wasting lots of valuable time.

Access

It’s now asking to scan QR code through my camera which is won’t allow access to add an action or access sensitive data which I need to. Basically useless

Unable to give 0 stars

I use the Authenticator to get elevated access. I now have to delete and reinstall to generate a code every single time. Really annoying!

Recent problem

Has been fine but through December the app says I need to scan a QR code and there is no QR code on the website to scan. Therefore I can not get the correct required access when I login because the app has stopped giving an authentication code needed.

Until recently was working fine. Now saying no QR code to scan. Not able to log in to elevated status! Can anyone help?

Useless

This doesn’t give me a code anymore. So totally useless. I can’t access all areas and I really need this for my work. Please listen to all the complaints and help us. I get asked to scan a QR code. There’s no QR code to scan anywhere??

QR codes

I don’t understand what QR it’s asking for as I just want to be able to read reports sent by elevating my access?

Is now asking for QR codes which are not used so can’t log in - help please!

Usually really reliable but it is now asking for WR codes which are no longer used, meaning I can’t elevate my access

Utterly useless. Updates now mean I can’t access CPOMS. Screen to access a qr code comes up but no qr code. Deleted and reinstalled several times to no effect.

Remote teaching and this has failed

After a few days of being fine, it has suddenly stopped working. I need reliability, especially when working from home. I like CPOMS, but this app is poor. The premise is simple enough. How can they get it wrong?

Crashes when trying to authenticate new phone

Every single time one of our elevated access users needs to authorise a new phone, the app crashes, won’t reopen and has to be deleted and reinstalled.

Cannot get access anymore

Randomly asking for QR codes that are no longer used, had no problems until today and now I can’t log in. Quick fix please!

Change to service

When I open the app it now just goes to a screen saying QR code but this does not allow me access to the usual approve screen

On IPhone and will only let me scan a QR Code. I can not get any codes I need to login. It is a big issue
plyghvc
2020-11-06

It’s easy when you know how!

If your CPOMS app needs to scan the QR code, ask your school’s CPOMS admin to remove your security key and then log in to CPOMS and go to Account settings then Security keys add new device. This is where the QR code is.
Bronte Lass

It’s it’s not broken....

The update does not work on my iPhone! Only gives me the option of QR code and no menu facility.
Please help as I cannot monitor any safeguarding concerns!!
Serenity now...
2020-10-20

Terrible 😡😡😡😡

Where can I find the QR code???? Am now unable to access CPOMS and this is a serious issue for me in my safeguarding role! Please sort it out!!!!!! I’m only rating it one star as it had to have a star rating to continue. It’s actually NO stars!!!! And I do love colons. This app is just crap and has damaged your reputation 😡😡😡😡😊

Used to work but doesn’t now!

So infuriating now only gives me the option of scanning for a QR code , but there is none to scan! Why can’t it give me a number?? Grhhhh!!!!

DSL

As previous reviews mentioned since update CPOMS have let us down. As DSL’s we have a hard enough job as it is without all the faffing around trying to sort it out. A waste of valuable time and considering this is Safeguarding this is not good enough !

Scan what

Since the update all I get is an option to scan a QR code. What code. I think CPOMS is great but...
I am the main school administrator and cannot get what on Earth is going out needs sorting

2020-10-02

Not good

It doesn’t give me the option to send the code so I have to type it in each time. Not as good as it was previously
rachel134
2020-09-29

New update not working for me!

What am I doing wrong? I don’t get an authentication code but I’m asked to scan a QR code? That is the only screen I have, not the other screens shown on your app! This has only happened since CPOMS did an update.
karenwat

QR code

The website says enter authentication code the app does not have one the app says scan QR code the website does not have one!
This does not work!!!
Not good enough 1 star is more than should be awarded

Doesn’t work

Just get a screen asking for a qr code. And then no more. Not the screen that’s on my system. Can’t use CPOMS at higher levels of authentication either

Doesn’t work

For some reason I am longer allowed DSL access and cant log in..... which is a bit rubbish considering this is the only opportunity I have to catch up on referrals.
It tells me to speak to admin..... I AM the admin!!!
What now?
Deleted app. Just told me to scan QR code.....
Cant get a QR code!!
Lovely picture of app on phone and help and more information but completely no use to me.
It’s not like I cant access my photos on Facebook..... this is a Safeguarding website for christsake!!!
Rubbish!!!!
Oh....and now, I cant post my comment because every pigging nickname i put in is taken. Great, thanks.... like I have feck all else to do!!
Will use the world’s most ridiculous nickname then!!!!!!
Really unimpressed of Bury

There is now no authentication code, only the option to scan a QR code.....which I don’t have?! How am I supposed to get the code?!

Doesn’t work

So disappointed with the update as it doesn’t work on my I phone and now keeps coming up with network error. I have tried deleting and re installing and the same issue. Worked perfectly before. Please sort. Would have given 5* before and recommended, don’t feel the same now. Have phoned twice and emailed support twice and not had a return call.

Simple and Easy

Must have a CPOMS account which has been authorised at the higher level to use. Simple and easy. By turning on notifications it pings when you log in on your phone’s browser which you can click on and quickly authenticate saving you a few seconds.

New phone. New authentication needed. Follow instructions even having to phone. Head of a school and can’t get on cpoms to the right level because this useless app won’t open the scanner. Not impressed.

Same problem as previous reviewer,

I use an I pad air and CPOMS Authenticator QR will not pick up on my iPad screen. Not an iPad problem as never had this problem before.

New 11 inch iPad Pro

This app is useless on the new 11 inch iPad Pro. Due to the new resolution the app, constantly being asked to ‘Open the app in full screen mode’ and refusing to go any further.
Tried emailing CPOMS but no response. Not impressed, especially due to the nature of the app.
