Horror remake of Wikifarms
Doesn’t even let you delete your profile, when u click on the red danger zone delete all your datas button, u basically log out. And still have ur logs saved on the frontpage of the app…
And then u just relog in, without having any actual result other than clicking on a red button and hearing the imaginary sound of this terrible app designer selling ur datas somewhere on the cloud
Response from developer
Hey Nev250, Sorry to hear you hate our app so much! That said I will push back on some of the inaccuracies in your review: 1. I've never heard of wikifarms - And we certainly havent done any "Parsing the database" We get our employer data 2 ways: a. Employers can go to https://jobs.the88thday.com/ and setup their accounts b. We allow users to submit information about employers on the platform 2. There was an issue with some accounts deletions through the app, this has been resolved. 3. We do not sell/share our user data. Never have and never will. All the best completing your days Nev250, I'm sorry we weren't more useful to you. The 88th Day was built as a free option to help backpackers complete their 88 days. We offer functionality to help you find work, calculate your days and hopefully offer some decent guidance along the way. Please try our app for yourselves for free and make your own mind up. The 88th Day
Good but make it free for hospo version!!
You can use it for hospo with the free default version (farm),but you will be missing some things; for example:
-Total count of hours per week: it’s nice to submit the hours of your employers separately, but if the app allows you to keep the week count (week 1, week 2, etc.), it should be able to identify how many hours you did in a week in total between all your jobs. Especially because most of the hospo people have more than one job.
-Hours/days equivalent: I truly believe that 5 hours in hospitality counts as 1 Day in hospo. I also noticed that you either get 5 Days or 7 Days, there’s no 6 in between. Moreover, as said, the app makes you submit the employers separately and in the end it does not amount all the hours together, so translation hours/day is not correct — e.g. you’ve done 28h with Employer 1 + 7h with Employer 2; you should have reached the 7 Days goal for the week, BUT it won’t as they’re counted independently. It will give you 5 days for Employer 1 and maybe 1 for Employer 2, when actually having done 35h should translate into 7 Days. As if you hadn’t been working hard enough 🥺
I get this was a farm-oriented app in the beginning, but making it more hospo-friendly in the free version will be a significant improvement — more and more people are doing hospo for the 88 days now, it’s a matter of time that someone creates a free hospo-oriented calculator, especially if this one does not offer it
