I never review things because i cant be bothered but this program is amazing. i manage a small jetski rental company and the messaging feature allows me to keep all staff up to date with weather conditions on the water. My two bosses are also not very technologically inclined haha and theycan use everything super easily! No more excuses from young staff about not being informed :) all of their shifts are on their phones with little reminders :) the best part is this is just the free version!

Exactly what I was looking for. Everyone else wants you to pay for this type of service. Can make and send schedules. Approve or deny requests off. Mass send published schedules. Print and post schedules. Easily manage and message crew. Easy to use. Literally perfect. No complaints.

Not sure why, with the new version, i updated my availability as not available, however it kept shown i have full availability. Deleted and redone, still having the same errors. Also all my availability for future date(s) i had done in old version, when i upgraded the app to new version, all of them gone. The old version much better, haven't had issue before.

Since the last update, I can not see the roster when I turn my phone sideways

Strange, I liked using and learning to use a range of software. But apps are not software. There minimalist approach is frustrating, not least because I prefer to use a notebook rather than a phone. While I have a new phone that has far more capacity than anything I have used before I'm not happy with the very poor security that it provides in our thief driven operating environment.

Not bad put has some areas for improvement. I would like to be able to see draft shifts within the app. I plan ahead on the desktop but when mobile cannot review my draft shifts. Although not strictly app based, I feel the ability to mark employees as sick (or other approved abscenes) is very desirable. When planning rotas in the past I have accidently included employees who were unavailable through sickness. Employees do not need to see this information but it would be great for managers.

As an employer, I love this app. However I really think there are so many small features which would make this app so much better. It has the foundations of a fantastic scheduling app but I feel it lacks in certain areas. The support team are great and I wish I could use this app for everything I need but I'm finding I'm looking for another app to help with the little things.

Not really enjoy using this app. I had to download this app so I could get a job not really enjoying using this app. When you get a notification in the tab it is nowhere to be found and this is very annoying. This app runs very slowly and I am constantly doing things accidentally as I have pressed the screen and it has not updated. If you have a choice download something else.

When I tried to sign up with this app, it took 45 minutes. It kept making me redo steps of verifying a phone number and inputting new information. This app does not load up properly like ever. Takes an age and when it does its behind the emails that have already been sent by it. You need to optimize it for speed. It must have worked well before because the employer I had tell me to use it raved about it. Please make it runnable again, it's so slow it's useless. If I could give 0 stars I would.

Can't complain, much better than pen and paper schedules. Edit. Been using this for a few months, and it's still great. Only features I would like to see added are, time off requests to show in date order on mobile app, when I get time off requests, I need to wait til I'm on desktop to approve to ensure I don't approve too many requests. And would also like to be able to edit/create schedules in the mobile app, or even allowing opensimsim usable through a mobile browser. But overall, it's great

Ever since the update, the app has been difficult to use and there have been many instances where the availabilty has been saved with wrong dates and times (although repeatedly selected correctly). Former version was much better and easier to use. No errors. The only drawback was that times were difficult to select. I would still prefer it to this version as it results in constant confusion between employer and employee.

Terrible app, why does it randomly log me out. Got a new phone and all of a sudden I can't log in anymore.

This app is vital to the smooth running of our organization. The support staff responds so quickly! The time off request, schedule acknowledgement eliminate the manager/staff conversation of, "I didnt know I had to work!" or "I didnt show up for work because I had plans..." Social Schedule is a mouthfull when referring to it with colleagues, but that's a minor glitch compared to all the wonderful features!

All of a sudden it freezes on the "splash screen", no google integration, admin cannot edit user accounts like the user can so I need to ask computer illiterate employees to remove an old availability before I put one in a new one. Overall has what a lot of people want but just seems overcomplicated for the average small business. Probably will continue to use as long as the mobile app stops freezing.

Overall this app works great and I have no issues other than the availability. I work for two different companies which both just started using opensimsim. But I can only set one availability schedule. I would like to be able to set more than one availability, to prevent getting scheduled at one job when I'd like to work the other.

App is awesome for communicating with my co workers and seeing the schedule. Its perfect! But every once in a while, it will log me out and leave me on the "sign in with Facebook" screen and will not let me log in at all. No matter how many times I uninstalled, re start phone, and clear data, it will work randomly like a few hours later or a few days later. I dont know how to fix it!

I have to use this app for work. It's pretty simple to navigate, but push notifications do not work at all (my coworkers all are having the same experience). Also, you have to dig in to each scheduled shift to 'see who else is on' - there is no option to see the whole week at once, or to see who is scheduled on a shift you are not. But really, it's the lack of push notifications that makes me dislike this app...
