Pros and cons of Grocery Gateway app for iPhone and iPad

Grocery Gateway app good for

App is good overall, would be great if it accepts Apple Pay to pay faster.
Easy to use .. search bar works great when finding items .. love the idea of visually seeing the product .. I really do hope you guys can add description of items .. sometimes when you click the item, it doesnt give you the actual product details, it may push my decision to buy if I knew description of a product Im not familiar with! Otherwise great app!

Its great to see such a nicely polished app created by a local Toronto developer, Unata. App works great, and Grocery Gateways service is great too. Now if only Unata could convince Loblaws or Metro to start a similar service.
and even better design. Very easy to use and the interface looks great!
Amazing app. Everything works properly. No glitches or bugs. Great service too, definitely going to revolutionize how people shop for groceries. And thank you for keeping the app clear of advertising! :)

Some bad moments

The app is now a mobile version of their website. Would have been nice if they took the time to design their mobile apps properly. Also, no landscape on iPad? Really?
Then the website doesnt load properly in safari. Interface on a iPhone is difficult to use. App doesnt format to landscape in a iPad.
The pictures are pretty, but if you are looking for function over form, be prepared to wait a long while. The previous version, before the massive redesign, is better. The pictures pop up in all the most awkward places and cover everything you actually want to see and do, and stay around far too long. Instead of being able to select a quantity, more than one, and add it to the cart, they made adding more than one item at once the most awkward process they could think of. Trying to clear the substation option all at once, dont worry, they made deselecting this manual. Really great if you have fifty or one hundred items in your cart and love scrolling and touching each and every box. Why isnt no substitutes an option in settings? And how about those grocery lists. Could they provide a manual sort option too? Apparently not. Sigh. Great service, terrible app design.
Cant log in now. So they dont want orders? No option for resolving probs.
Looks pretty but not functional at all. Im a mom with a young baby and Grocery Gateway has been my savior. Now its obnoxious. Old purchases are hard to find (use to be quick and easy to add to new order) and when searching for a product and you click on it to see ingredients, theres no back button to the main list. You have to re-search all over again. No smart fill-ins for items either (ex type mus and mushroom is suggested). You have to type in the full item youre searching for each time. What a pain in the neck.
App has many issues... *forgot password - not an option *weekly specials incomplete load and then you freeze *difficult to use and very slow on iPhone. spend some time testing this app and fixing or bring back the old one that you could use with easy. Otherwise the service is not worth the headache to place an order.
