Ratings and reviews

I'm constantly getting kicked out of the app. It glitches all the time. I can barely sign up for anything and then if I need to check my schedule or even cancel, it won't let me into the screen. I tried going thru the website too, same problems. It does notify me of openings, but many times by time I check my schedule it's gone. And then reverse, if I click right away to take the job, it won't allow me to see my schedule. Insane!

Unfortunately, the app constantly crashes, there is no service to report issues, and us substitutes who have to use it, lose jobs because we can't pull them up on our phones. Definitely not happy with the choice to move to this system. Also, I constantly get notifications for jobs for days I already have jobs, there is no feature to turn this off, so sometimes this goes on all day long. Very poorly designed.

As others mention, the app opens to a frozen screen when I tap job popup notifications. It often doesn't immediately show all the available jobs when I open the app normally; I have to refresh to see the job from my notification. By the time I am able to do anything, the jobs I want have been taken. It would also be nice to have the option of entering more than one before/after availability condition (e.g., after 7:30am and before 4:30pm); RR's main competitor has had that feature for years.

What’s new

First quarter’s in the books, and so are a few bug fixes! 📚 We smoothed out wrinkles in sign-in, fixed a few crashes, and made small tweaks, like an alphabetized job list when you clock in. Straight A’s all around!
