1. 2/5Your schedule is in safe hands

   As a user why can i not login to see my schedule? Oh, right, because hotschedules did yet ANOTHER nonsense update, and without downloading the update you cant login. What is so critically important that this app has to be updated twice a month or more? It’s like mission impossible, only “your schedule, if you choose to accept it, is...(every normal day)... this schedule will self destruct in 10 days (when we update the app for no apparent reason) ...” What could possibly be so critically important and secure about my stupid work schedule that it needs to update so often???? Thus losing my login data each time, thus making me download a new version (needing wifi) and requiring me re-verify my identity and password each time I use it? It’s annoying. It’s just giving me access to my dumb work schedule and not anything important like my bank account or a government secret agency mission impossible whatever geez

2. 2/5crappy app that could be great

   token and password issues EVERY update. plus the location is always messed up (you should make it with option to set location) so we can set a location for calendar sync. {and speaking of sync every time app is foreground it resyncs pushing calendar entries} Edit{} well now I'm not getting my calendar spammed but my password again occasionally doesn't verify at all through app unless i re download it fresh. This isnt a typing issue I'm using a saved password entry. This compounded an issue where this past Saturday a scheduled shift did not sync to my calendar at all. The email notification had it and online website had it but the calendar sync omitted Saturday but not Friday not Sunday. Look I paid for this app like everyone else but it LACKS the Website’s BASIC pickup shift features, but its ability to sync was its saving grace but you guys have now made it to where i cannot trust that it has synced. Further to complicate things was i was unable to login to the app to even verify the error. How the heck does one data point get omitted.

3. 1/5Constant updates, simple things always a problem

   I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to type my password into this app... you’d think that’s a simple thing and I shouldn’t care but it’s insanely annoying... especially considering it has to be some ridiculously complicated password... even my banking app is easier to access than this garbage app Hack my BOA and transfer all my money to a Nigerian prince? Sure no problem Try to hack my schedule to see when I’m working? LOL NICE TRY SWEETIE! YOURE GOING TO JAIL! I’ve also never seen an app need to be updated as frequently as this one It’s also infuriating to me that you can’t have one login and that’s your login. Switch companies? New login. Your company stopped using hotschedules then six months later went back to it? New login. I literally have taken to using my full name with a number after it and increasing the number by 1 every time I need a new login (I’m on 9 at this point... and mind you I’ve worked for the same company the entire time, just different locations and/or they stopped then restarted using HS) Also why do you have to pay for it when your company already paid a massive sum for the ability to use it? I didn’t choose HotSchedules, I was told to use it, I don’t want to pay for something (especially when the app does nothing but annoy me) Trivial issue, I know, but the fact remains Honestly the usability of this app is fine once you’re in there... it tells me my schedule... cool... easy to swap? Sure I just wouldn’t recommend it to anyone unless you needed to use it

4. 3/5Poor Implementation of Dark Mode

   Ever since the most recent update to the app, I can honestly say it was terrible. I know there’s a trend towards being able to have platforms in dark mode— which isn’t the issue. The issue is that now that this dark mode has been implemented you can barely see what time you’re working at. For whatever reason the text is also dark just like the background and you can’t see what it says. You have to click on it to see it. Other issues include that you can’t see who else is working in case you may need to find a cover, and you can’t tell what options you’re clicking on in places like the setting or messages, or requests off. Because unlike your shift which will show once you click on it, nothing else does. Please improve this so we can see things clearly and effortlessly.

5. 1/5Hardly functions

   I don’t understand if it’s just me or why this app is rated so highly... I’ve used it for about 3 years now because I have too and it’s been terrible. I can probably count the number of times it has loaded properly on one hand. It is a daily occurrence when I initially open the app that it does one of two things - indefinitely loads until an error message pops up (The operation can not be completed), or it loads and is literally completely blank, and trying to check to any other link/tab results in another error message. This continues to persist several times after closing and reopening the app, often it will result in signing me out completely. I currently use an iPhone X, although I’ve had these issues across other phones, keep the app updated, and 90% of the time I am connected to WiFi with any of my other apps working fine as far as the connection goes. I’m able to connect through the actual webpage easily enough but that’s not the point - I paid for the convenience of this app and it hardly works. I’m writing this review now because these issues have persisted through the last two days without even pulling up my schedule once setting me over the edge with my patience.
