ESS Mobile

Attendance on Demand, Inc.

About this app

ESS Mobile is a smart, adaptive app that, when used with your employer's configuration of Attendance on Demand, provides employees with flexible time tracking options.

You have access to the information you need to track your hours worked and review schedules or benefit balances. You receive notifications for when you need to take action. For example, adding a missing punch on your time card. You can also record attendance-related activities like an absence or if you will be late for your work shift.

If you are an hourly employee, ESS Mobile lets you punch in and out, request time off, and send a note to your supervisor.

If you are an employee that simply reports total hours worked, the time sheet is available to you in addition to these functions.

Ratings and reviews

Wow! Horrible! How do staff punch in / out if there isn't a schedule? The sign out time while still using the app is too quick. Staff can't do a fraction of what they can do online. It's already challenging enough using the online portal, but this app is genuinely worse. I can't recommend staff to use it, which means we'll never get accurate times for their punches. Sounds harsh, but the basic function of a digital time cards system is the main problem with this app from AOD.

Slow. Slow. Slow. Crashes my device weekly. Takes several minutes to log on. I'm at work for 5 minutes before I start getting paid. The app is not user friendly. I have to touch an option several times before the app recognizes that a selection has been made. Nothing is in a logical place. This app is horrible. Employers, I beg you, find a different time management system.

This was a quick and easy way to look at my time card, overtime, ect. Until the most recent update. (June 11th 2023) It is now nearly unusable, and it's impossible for me to quickly double check my time and overtime. The old system was a solid 4.5 stars. I'd recommend bringing back the old UI.
