Get the most out of your Flick app

Let’s be honest – the Flick mobile app (a world first, by the way), is pretty darn awesome! But to make sure you’re using it to its full potential, you need to check that your notification settings are optimised in the app and on your phone.

Not quite hitting the spot?

We all know that from time to time our favourite apps have a mini-meltdown. Despite our best efforts, the Flick app isn’t immune from the odd misfire.

If you ever find your Flick app playing up, we want to hear about it so we can find a fix and stop that particular problem happening again.

The best thing to do is to fire an email to hello@flickelectric.co.nz or give us a call at 0800 4 FLICK (435 425).

We’ve got big plans for evolving the Flick app, so we always love to hear suggested features from users that would help you make the most of #FlickLife!
