ProxyVote: Your Voice Matters 4+

Excellent Start

This app is really nice and almost makes voting on proxies effortless. Long gone are the days of copying and pasting a control number!

The only thing it is lacking is the ability to sort out between meetings that have or have not been voted on. If you have a lot of different companies in your list it is very frustrating to have scroll through the list and look for ones that are missing circles with green check marks. It would be really nice if there were instead two separate lists: one for meetings not voted and the other for meetings already voted. If the app had this feature, then it would be effortless and worthy of a five star rating.

Yep: inexcusable

I was having the problem other people report with tapping the "vote now" button in an email I received, being taken to the app, and the app showing no unvoted shares; I also found that merely switching away from the app to go back to my email and copy the control number in order to paste it into the corresponding field in the app logged me out of the app.

After sending an email about this I received a response recommending that I delete and reinstall the app; now that I've done that, I cannot log in no matter what I do – whether I attempt to use Apple's passwords mechanism (which doesn't work) or jeopardize the security of my account by copying my password from the Passwords app into Notes where I can see it and then manually typing the password into the ProxyVote app, the "sign in" button remains grayed out. Apparently there is no more using this app for me. What a shame that the app has been ruined by lazy or incompetent coders and a complete lack of pre-release quality testing.

Password entry broken

In spite of several reviews about this problem from over a yea ago, the password entry screen in this app is still broken. It will only accept passwords manually typed in from the keyboard. Pasting in a password from a password manager app does not register; the password criteria check works, but the ‘Continue’ button is grayed out, preventing me from actually submitting the password.

Get it together, developers. Using a password safe is basically a requirement these days to ensure unique and strong passwords that meet each app’s password criteria. It shouldn’t be this hard to fix, especially since you’ve already implemented the needed callback to check the password criteria! When the password criteria is satisfied, it shouldn’t be rocket science to enable the submit button…

We're sorry that your having issues due to the inability to utilize a password manager to enter your password on the app. Please be advised that our development team will be reviewing this functionality.
