I had this app for less than 24 hours and I deleted it. I've been comfortable using the browser and texting (although I was unsubscribed from text alerts accidentally and it was difficult to get them back). I tried the app and it kept closing out due to an error. 1 time I'd open it and be able to see my schedule (assignment accepted for a future date). 10 minutes later I'd open it again and nothing would show on the schedule. I'm going back to the browser, and hopefully my texting alerts will

I don't like that the schedule doesn't link up with Frontline. ETA: I'm well aware they are two different companies but as a sub that uses multiple platforms it would be nice for you to communicate with your competitors to make that an available feature. Currently it is very easy to double book and more schools in my area use Frontline so I don't pick up many from Red Rover unless absolutely nothing is available on the other one.

Thank you for this feedback, Steph. Please note that Frontline and Red Rover are two separate companies and solutions.

This app is horrible! I don't know if the problem is interfacing with an android phone, technical problems, or both. I recently switched from Frontline, which worked fine. I can't seem to pick up jobs on RR, and I'm not receiving notifications. I have contacted tech support but their solutions were not helpful. I'm just using it through the browser.
