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!

I downloaded this because it told me I needed to,but from the screenshots I seen I don't see from the app I have to go to the web browser. I think it's annoying that it doesn't work correctly and match up with the screenshots it's very odd. I'm just confused, and it keeps saying there's an error and then sometimes it don't and I just started today.

The new update doesn't let me see my schedule. If I go to the schedule tab it shows me what week but not my shifts. The most key part to the app doesn't work. How am I meant to work without knowing when I'm scheduled. This is a common issue with this app. They are always updating the looks, how pretty it is, but it is functionally terrible. Always buggy and failing when we need it.
