Ratings and reviews

Works great for scheduling. But for some reason they can't make an update that is compatible with android devices. It's one thing after another. The biggest issues is the fact that notifications DON'T WORK. Like at all. Would rate lower than a 2. But the scheduling part of it is great. Everything else needs help ASAP

Hit or miss. Mostly miss On Android it's just a nightmare. The code is extremely temperamental. One update works okay. The next one, you can't upload images. Then they fix that and you don't get notifications anymore. Then it kept signing us out randomly all the time. I've had it for about a month and it is broken more often than it works. Currently I can't attach photos again which is very important for my job. Works fantastic on Apple devices. So if that's an option for you do that.

App is terrible for Andriod users. I have had to uninstall and reinstall multiply times because I just do not get notifications at all. It is fairly quick with picking up shifts, dropping shifts, and all that but the delay for notifications is insane. I either get a notification 30-45 min AFTER whatever happened has happened or (regualarly) I just don't get one at all. I have contacted support about this issue and they just remind me to make sure that ush notifications are enabled (They ARE)
