I guess I'm a little behind the times, but I just got an iPhone and so finally had the chance to check out the FMS app.
It started out awesomely well, if a little slow to send the report (I assume it was getting a GPS fix or something). I filled in all my details but then checked the site and was a bit confused that it hadn't appeared. Later on I saw the confirmation email, and hit the link to post it. When I got to the web page, it asked me to fill in some details. I hit submit without doing that because the picture made it obvious what the problem was -- it didn't like that and forced me to put something in. I really didn't have anything to add so I pasted the one-liner description into the box and pressed go. So, my two thoughts are: - The email confirmation step was a bit confusing, mostly because I just didn't realise it existed and therefore wondered where my report was. I guess it's important to do it, but it might be good to let people know that in the app. Also, will it do it next time I report something? Or will it remember that I'm a goodie and skip it? - Is it really necessary to require a description? Here's the report: http://www.fixmystreet.com/report/62854. Overall it's a really nice app -- and I'm pretty sure it'll mean that I'll report things that I otherwise wouldn't get round to doing. Win!
