Ratings and reviews

The countdown that used to show up whenever I would clock out for break is gone with the latest update. I don't know why you would get rid of it, it was super helpful. Now I have to constantly watch the clock to make sure I clock in from break when time is up. I don't use the clock back in reminder in settings because it's never accurate. It always notifies me too late. I hope the countdown timer returns in the next update. UPDATE: The countdown timer is back! It's now on the notification bar.

It now makes me log in with a text or email verified code every time I use the app, which is constantly wasting my time. If you have this issue or any other account problems you can't talk to a person, it's trash ai only even if you request a human. You can't even reset your password with their own prompts on their own app. The issue has still not been resolved.

This app is a fortress, it's so bad that their OWN AI system can't properly navigate it. When I have technical issues with Homebase, I'm navigated back and forth from the app to the online platform. Spoiler! Neither worked to find a solution to my problem, which I highly doubt I am alone in. As an employee, you cannot receive assistance from a live supervisor you are stuck with an AI system that cannot and will not fix any technical issues you run into, and you will run into a lot.
