It works just like it's yards. TRASH. If I didn't need it to do my work, it'd be gone. No link to help desk, constantly making you change pw, challenge questions locked out after 3 attempts. THIS APP IS JUNK

Stop adding stuff to the app. Everytime you update it something else does not work. Now I have to shut it down everytime I outgate and ingate. I am tired of calling in and nothing gets fixed. Time to find somebody from NS to call and see what can be done.

It freezes up most of the time and with new updates they want access to you photos, media files, camera, microphone, etc.. why all of a sudden to they want all your personal stuff on your phone? Has nothing to do with the app no thanks ill wait in line.
