About this app

Square Team app is the one place for your team to communicate, manage schedules, access timecards, and stay in sync — all on the go. It also allows them to see their hours worked, breaks, overtime, and estimated pay.

Built for businesses using Square, the app enables employees to clock in and out on their phones instead of at the POS, which saves time and eliminates the need for team members to crowd around the POS to clock in. Employers can manage teams more easily, adjust schedules, and empower their employees by putting critical shift information at their fingertips. Employers using Square Payroll can easily pay their team, automatically importing timecards, tips, and commissions.

Your whole team can chat using real-time messaging and employers can send out important updates and announcements so the whole team stays in the know.

Team members can see when and where they’re scheduled to work, pick up open hours, and make sure their work schedule fits with their personal one. It also allows them to see their hours worked, breaks, overtime, and estimated pay. And if team members are paid through Square Payroll, they have access to their pay stubs and tax forms right on their mobile phones.

Ratings and reviews

When I first loaded this app in Jan 2024, as per my employer, it worked fine. For the past couple of months, it has consistently been crashing. I lose messages and announcements every couple of weeks. It's very frustrating! I have to uninstall then reinstall, and even then, the only part that comes back is the announcements. I lose messages back to February! I've emailed and called to no avail because I use the app through my employer. Very poor experience!

Terrible for messaging. Used Crew for messaging a large family group until they made us switch to square team. Focus appears to be on scheduling not messaging. Random messages are marked with the wrong day or time and then additional messages in the chain never show as new- most recent message never shows as it should. Will be switching to a better messaging app

I never wanted to have to deal with this app. But Square decided it was going to buy crew the app that my store actually used. So now I'm losing a whole bunch of useful functionality, I'm losing the ability to give my crew rewards through the app, we're losing dark mode, the easy organization of chats on the front screen. Honestly Square team is just a worst app overall than crew. Stop trying to do the Monopoly thing and buy up all your competitors and just let us have the app that we liked
