Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 169 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently struggle with complex security procedures, endless verification loops, and persistent error codes that completely prevent them from logging into the mobile platform. People also find the general navigation extremely frustrating, noting that menus are not intuitive, text is tiny, and accessing medical records can sometimes be difficult. Though some people found the mobile application useful for managing repeat prescriptions and connecting easily with their local pharmacy. Some reviewers also mentioned that when the system actually works, it offers a reasonable way to contact doctors and view basic health information.

Diabolical software

Utter crap! How can such a prestigious organisation justify such diabolical software? Passkey login doesn't work, can't access appointments, medical conditions or any useful data and many of my historical records are absent. Why bother at all?

It's a shame I cannot award negative stars, because this "app" would get a minus 10. "app" is the wrong name : it should be a "miss app". I don't know which numpty designed the user interface: looks to have been developed by a 10-year old. We deserve better than this. I'm off to phone my GP

Worse than useless

Worse than useless. Cannot login because each time they send a passcode you have to minimise the app to read the passcode. Then when you maximise the app again it initiates a new login process. 3 goes and you are barred for 15 minutes. Beyond hope.

Crap update …

The last update means harder to find hiw to book an appointment, why/when was it logical to have to go through the documents option?
If you're booking for someone else forget it unless they are at the same surgery a yourself
Upgrade is a joke and backwards step.
Doesn't deserve any stars

Useless

Useless. Enter email and password. Initially won't send a code to my phone. When it finally does it says something has gone wrong. Yet another useless government IT system

This app is definately not for us the intended patients, because if i cannot see all my vaccination records for covid, flu, shingles ect ,what is the point. Most employers want to know if we are vaccinated ,as a carer, that information is not accessible to me, what a USELESS APP, its a pity i couldnt give a blank star to show my dissatisfaction.

Try to login it took 20 minutes for the text to arrive at that point. The login had timed out so I tried to login again took too long timed out at this point. It tells me I have to wait 15 minutes to be able to login to read the verification. Use this as a useless get a better system. NHS we paid enough for it

This App and employees cause Deaths

This service and those employees associated with it contribute to deaths. When I tried to access my medical recorde from Dubai, i entered all the correct log on information. The 6 digit code was definitely not sent which means the records could not be accessed. This caused lots more tests to be carried out and time delays in an emergency situation. I fully intend to Sue.

In 2019 I was registered to a GP surgery on Leytonstone high road.

My evil step mother contacted GP and told lies whilst using my details at the time, DR
SANJAY KUMAR a supposedly qualified doctor failed to act appropriately. Instead sent emails to mental practitioners based on lies told to him by my biological father, step mother and some my sisters. I have since switch GP’s but the betrayal of my family acting in such a way has left me a little traumatised.

Below I’d like to add some evidence that I was a regular guy and within a few weeks at the time I was all a sudden described as mental unstable by my dearest and nearest then back to normal.

My biological fathers name is MR MUKHTAR YAAWELI. Step mothers name is YASMIN ABDALLAH.
Sisters - Almas and amal mukhtar Mohamed.

The NHS App is not fit for purpose

The NHS App is not fit for purpose, my Patchs account is locked in an handshake issue and the NHS IT team is nigh on useless. When I try to change my Patchs password it directs me to the NHS App but won't let me connect to Patchs. The Patchs team can't help me and a formal complaint to the NHS digital services team is just leaving me hanging with a "we will get back to you when we have a solution". We are talking about a month ago when problems arose when I changed practices in the same medical centre. I was in the medical centre on Wednesday 6tg May and there was a lady in front of me who was in the same position, the App was working fine but now she can't use Patchs using it either. There appears to be a systematic failure and no one seems to care - its someone else's problem and the practice refers patients to the NHS helpline.
