  8. [R2] LoJack Go 4/5 · US Great app: I love the app. The only improvement a I would make is a live feature to follow the car in real time like Life 360 does with phones.
  9. [R36] LoJack Go 1/5 · US Waste of Money: I’m tired of paying for something that doesn’t even work correctly. I can never get the app to update the location of my car… no matter how long it sits or where it’s at
  10. [R37] LoJack Go 5/5 · US Best Peace of mind for my Car: Whenever I have my car serviced or if I let my family use it I have peace of mind to know that where the car is at and also in the case, if the car gets stolen, I know where to have it tracked and report it if necessary, ever since I had this app it's been nothing but extremely helpful. I recommend it to anybody my membership from when I purchase the car is about to
  11. [R51] BLK 1/5 · GB Gandhi: Need to pay to see who likes you? Now that’s just stupid Already paid a weekly fee now l gotta pay more to see who liked me, this is a must fix (dear owner)
  12. [R55] BLK 3/5 · GB EXPENSIVE: So far it’s okay but who is paying this much for dating apps please???? The discounts aren’t it but so far it’s a good app to navigate, only issue is how expensive it is 😫
  13. [R38] LoJack Go 1/5 · US Needs some improvement: Location is not live. Very delayed. And I don’t receive notifications when setting speed limit over 80 mph. I messaged them regarding it and have not got a reply.

  18. [R22] LoJack Go 1/5 · US Lagging: Takes too long to update location
  19. [R64] BLK 1/5 · GB B: The app is bad, you get one notes when u join.u can’t talk to them or see them.everything is payment.it has a lot of potentials though.
  20. [R66] BLK 1/5 · GB Very disappointed: Highly disappointed in the app. Having to pay to see who likes you and message them is ridiculously. So practically impossible to match unless you pay. You guys should rethink this idea completely
  21. [R67] BLK 3/5 · GB Payment requirements: I think it’s a bit odd that you have to pay to see who likes you I get most apps do so but the payment is a lot per week!…it should at least be reduced. Other than that it’s a good app only disadvantage is that you can’t see who likes you unless you pay so the amount of people who you chat with is very very little if you choose not to pay
  22. [R65] BLK 3/5 · GB Needs work: I had expectations for this app based on other apps I’ve used. Although it’s a great concept the interface is basic and it can take a long time to load in between pages. Would be great if I could navigate between my likes quicker, it takes at least 90 secs for each profile to load. Which by today’s standards is an age and has me disengaged. £19.99 to even have the privilege to see my l
  23. [R70] BLK 2/5 · GB Too much money: Sounded great at first but you have to pay to see who has like you? As the cost of living isn’t already high! You how added to ridiculous expenses. The price was 14.99 a week to begin with now it’s 19.99 a week, very greedy. At least do special discounts. This app isn’t the way forward, you’ve missed the mark! After setting my age preferences, I’m still seeing 18 year olds and I’m
