Does not work

Just arrived at a restaurant that uses this app. They texted me a link. I downloaded and followed all instructions. It listed the number of parties ahead of me (6) and there were only 2. I the. Refreshed after one party was taken and it crashed. I reran and it knew nothing about my reservation. Who releases an app like this?:-(

Cant get past the first step

I cant move on after I enter my phone number because the keyboard blocks the Next step. Wouldve loved this to work though

Doesnt work

2 updates and still doesnt work. Want to like the app but cant get passed entering my phone number.

Does not work

They need to do basic QA work before releasing their software. You cannot continue past the "enter phone number" screen because the continue button at the bottom is covered by the keypad, and you cannot dismiss the keypad. Come on folks, did your developer even try a "new customer" scenario before releasing this?

Walked pass everyone

Went to A restaurant after using the app and when we got there we walked pass everyone and were seated. Overheard that there was a 90 minute wait. Loved it!

Wont open

Just downloaded and it wont even open. :(

Update decreased usability

Ever since the recent update this app has not worked properly. Cant sign into my account, no restaurants showing up when searching... Basically its now a useless app taking up space on my phone. Even when I search for a specific restaurant that I know uses the app it says all of them are "not available right now".

Great App

We use this every weekend with First Watch. Wonderfully accurate and we have saved hrs a year getting in line as we leave the house. Wish more restaurants used it.

Useless

What a useless app. When you enter your phone number the keyboard covers up the continue button and you can go no further. Idiots

Great so far

Great so far, dramatically cut down on our wait at some very popular brunch places!

Cool!

Very cool app!

Ok

I like the concept and function, but wish I could see the line spot at the various places in checked in at.

Doesnt work

Fix your app. You type in the phone number and cant go any further.

Poor design

Requires you to continuously re-enter personal info. Does not auto-refresh. Once our table was ready for us, the text message did not come through and the app simply said how much time we saved, rather than sending us a notification like your table is ready. Glitchiness was confirmed by hostess at restaurant. Deleting app now.

Wonderful!

Such a time saver. Use it every weekend for First Watch. Glad more restaurants are catching on to this idea too!

Good idea, poor execution

The app indicated no wait at a restaurant, so we could not enter a get in line request. Even though we checked the status at the restaurant, there was still a 30-minute wait. This has happened on more than one occasion.

Not tested. Does not work.

Does not work correctly on iPhone. Keyboard wont slide back to allow submission of my phone #. Also, keyboard switches back to numeric after each digit. Did anyone actually test this on a real phone? Inexcusable.

Useless

You cant click continue after you enter your number. So, you cant use the application. How in the world did the developer release this?

Accuracy of wait times is incorrect

I have used nowait several times. Twice on vacation and twice in my hometown. Not once have the wait times been accurate (almost 20mins off). Every single time we were put "in line" we were bumped out of line because we hadnt arrived yet. But the time this was happening was at least 15-20mins before the time our table was supposed to be ready!? And then we had to start all over again with sometimes up to 60mins wait again! This is totally unacceptable! If your app is giving us a wait time of 60, dont eliminate us from line 40mins into the wait because we "were not there yet". What is the point of using the app if we need to be at the restaurant waiting a long time anyways? It doesnt make any sense?

Crappy app

Made me download yet another app just to see my place in line. What. The. F**K.
