It is intended to be a convenience tool that provides notification and easy acceptance of available jobs in your Absence Management account while you’re away from your computer.

Ratings and reviews

App is not reliable. If phone loses connection with network (mobile or wifi) but reconnects, the app does NOT check for new connection, even if set to check for jobs every minute. You'll need to force quit app, and re-open it. Sometimes new jobs are available, but the app will have no connection. Again, you'll need to force quit and re-open it. But, by then the jobs will be gone. Developers have known about issue for a long while, but can't find a reliable fix.

Ever since it did an update this fall, Jobulator for Android refuses to connect to the internet ("jobulator could not connect to the internet") every time I go from a Wi-Fi enabled environment (ie my house or the school I work at) to a cellular data environment. The only way to remedy this is to toggle airplane mode on and off, then refresh the main jobulator page. This bug has been happening for several months with no fix, meanwhile I pay for this every month and as it isn't working half the time the entire point is lost. FIX IT!

it is a pretty glitchy app. it works more than it doesnt and I am getting jobs from it, but a lot of the time when I touch things it just doesnt respond. Like when a job comes up...if I touch it...nothing will happen. or if I reject a job it wont update to delete it from the screen. i basically just use this app as an alarm to go to the absence management system from frontline and accept or reject from there. The alarm works alright and that is the most important feature anyway...so 3 stars

What's new

Improved Job Notifications

Customers who upgraded to new Android devices told us that Jobulator was no longer notifying them of new jobs as reliably as with their old devices.

With this release, we have updated the way Jobulator detects new jobs, so that on newer devices, you are notified on a timely basis, even when your device has been idle for awhile.

We thank you for your continued use of Jobulator!
