3/5Update caused App to crash
We love this app, but the latest update has seemed to cause it to crash. It won’t even open or attempt to open any longer. Please fix so we can keep using it!

1/5Very poor interface and functionality
After using both Shift4 and Clover for payment processing, the difference in mobile app quality is night and day. Shift4’s mobile app has a very poor interface and functionality. The layout is confusing, the design feels outdated, and routine tasks like refunds or sales reports are buried in unintuitive menus. The app is also glitchy — frequent crashes and slow response times make it unreliable during busy hours. In contrast, Clover’s mobile app is much more polished. It offers a clean, user-friendly interface, faster load times, and far better stability. Tasks that take multiple clicks in Shift4 are done in seconds with Clover. If mobile access and ease of use matter to your business, Clover is hands down the better choice. Shift4 needs serious improvement to compete in today’s mobile-first environment.

2/5Far from ok
Some folks up here dislike the whole pos but that is not me. I like Skytab, but I hate this app. They keep making me update every couple weeks because they’re “Fine tuning some components for a more consistent and efficient experience” but I have never seen any changes in the app. They built a widget to get on the same page as apple, and its data is delayed. You try to look at trends for the last week or even month or year; one week is fine then the next you don’t have sales records for the all but 2 days. I feel like if you want an app to embrace the digital times, then make it work right. And if you can’t, don’t have an app at all. Or just find better developers.

1/5It gets worse
It’s very limited app to begin with and the information is good but rigid and gives a small picture. Does not even show the actual numbers like the total sales for the day is $2.0 but it tell you how many orders at lest. The worst thing is every time they update it, it’s worse. Like they do it on purpose. For example, after the latest “update” it shows half the days with zero sales which skew the numbers for the week and month. Like it doesn’t connect to the database or its queries comes empty and no check or validation on the data. Display their development process is short on planning and testing. They push it out without any validation that they didn’t break the couple good functionalities it had. Awful

2/5Needs More Functionality
Features some decent reports but the Total Gross Sales number is inaccurate and useless as it only shows sales from Closed tables. I want to know in real time how much money I’m making from open and closed tables. Besides viewing data the app doesn’t do much. I’d love to be able to modify shifts, make menu changes, and manipulate online orders.
