The app's navigation is cumbersome, with users struggling to find products due to an uncommon tabbed menu and excessive clicks. This design flaw leads to frustration and wasted time, prompting some users to consider alternative shopping options.

The search feature is unreliable, often freezing or failing to return relevant results, which hinders the shopping experience. Users report that the app locks up when adding pets to profiles or during searches, leading to a poor user experience.
Coupon Confusion
Promotional codes and discounts are frequently not applied as expected, causing dissatisfaction among users. This inconsistency in honoring discounts leads to perceptions of misleading advertising and erodes trust.
I entered a 30 percent off coupon and they would only honor up to $20.00; the old bait and switch.
