Clobotics Retail 4+

Guess I should have known when I saw all the reviews for this app were negative. The store visit job task I was attempting to do unfortunately required this app for submitting the pictures. Because of this app I wasn’t able to complete the job as needed. When I got to the store and logged into the app for the first time the job wasn’t under the new tab as the video tutorial said it would be instead it showed up under submitted. When I selected it under submitted it wouldn’t let me open it to edit it or see what was submitted. I contacted Clobotics and still waiting for a response back. Very very frustrating as it cost me time, gas and money.

I’ve tried this app at 3 different shops and was unsuccessful each time. The photo capture is unstable, the video mode requires literally over 100 captures to even get half of an average sized section of products. Once you get to 100 you can’t take any more and then can’t complete the row correctly.

There is no information on what to do when this happens. None of the tutorials explain if you can submit more than one “set” at a time.

Narrow aisles are impossible. The photo detection in “classic mode” never matches correctly and one wrong angle messes the whole thing up. It would be much faster and much more efficient if we were able to take the photos with our own regular photo app, use any run of the mill photo editor to stitch THOSE together and submit with a geolocation tag.

Also, trying to find any help has been nearly impossible.

I’m unable to complete my assignments due to the constant glitching and freezing from this application. It also absorbs a chunk amount of phone battery. When it works it’s great. However, when it glitches and freezes, especially during photo shoots, it’s frustrating process to complete one roll. It takes me hours to complete 4-5 rolls, rather than a few minutes. These issues slows down my productivity from completing the job. I hope the developers fix this problem and make a more user-friendly interface.
