  • Not enough color coded options

    Could be more creative with the color scheme. It would be greatly appreciated for those of us who do have busy lives blue and green need more color variation. Often times we have multiple things going on on the same day and we don’t need to have to take the time click it open to see exactly what that thing is. We need to be able to look at a glance to see where our nextevent is I’m thinking about deleting it because it’s just too much work to have to click into something to see where I am and this day and age of technology. There should be a rainbow of colors to choose from. Thank you for this opportunity to be heard.

  • Needs

    This app has been a HUGE help as a contract/ travel /PRN RN! I’ve suggested it to many. I also share it with my friends and family so they can see and know when and where I work for safety reasons. Although the link to share with others started glitching, I share my login with them and that works out fine.

    I hope the developers see this because I have a suggestion. Please add a toggle option that says “Cancelled” (with an “X”) and “Floated” (with an “F”) so that we can track these days as well, at a glance, like the “Charge” and “Preceptor” options. It would be REALLY helpful!!! You can’t see this in the notes when looking from the main screen and I need it more often than not.

    Otherwise, It works as designed and I love it!!!

  • Great App!

    Great app to use! No complaints other than not being able to put in more than one title. You already have the option to select more than one worksite and that’s nice for people that have more than one healthcare job; but it would be nice to get a function for people like myself that hold more than one title at a facility. I’m a cross-trained CNA, Unit Secretary, Sitter and soon to be Tele Tech. An option to manually type your title instead of choosing one already listed and have the function to share it with co-workers would be great. I’m different roles different nights and I get asked all the time by co-workers what I am that night, it can be frustrating on my end…

  • Useful, but sharing has become frustrating

    I’ve used the app for many years now and it has served its purpose well, but in the last several months I’ve had more issues sharing my calendar then I ever have in the past. Being able to share my calendar with friends and family who aren’t nurses has been really important since our schedules can vary so much, and for a long time they were able to use the same link I sent them. Recently it was working on and off, and now that link just doesn’t work all together. It only prompts them to download the app (and hopefully that’s not the goal, since that seems absolutely unnecessary). I already sent a message to the company about it weeks ago and was told only some people were having this issue, and I would get a message when it’s fixed. I’ve deleted and redownloaded the app, disabled and enabled my sharing, reset my sharing link, everything I could do on my part. It’s frustrating, when you expect an app to grow and improve over time, to instead see basic and previously reliable functions failing.

  • Needs bug fixes

    Don’t get me wrong, this app is the main reason my friends and I working can plan things together. But ever since I started using it, there’s alot of things that need fixing. First of all, the notification system is inconsistent. When you make requests to connect with colleagues, you’ll get a notif then sent to the app but then it disappears once taken there. When you leave and refresh the app then you can see that they’ve already been added to your list, even though notification tab always says activity is clear. Another thing is I recently have been having issues seeing my favorites on my list at all; I tried to remove and re-connect with them to see if it would resolve the issue but now they won’t get added to my list at all; I have to manually type them in everytime just to see their schedule even if i’m already friends with them
    on the app. I have tried deleting the app and refreshing my account and the issue remains. Please make bug fixes and update the app; thanks.

  • Perfect but have some suggestions

    This app is perfect for organizing my busy schedule as a nurse. I’ve used it for about 2 years now. My ONE suggestion is having a dark mode option in settings. I am a night shift nurse for life and survive in the darkness lol. Dark mode would make this app infinitely better.

    (another suggestion that is not as important: more options for shift types) For example in the hospital I work at it is common to be canceled (or pushed to a later start time) for an entire shift if there are too many nurses on the schedule; would be nice to mark shifts as “canceled” or “pushed” instead of just deleting them from my calendar so I can keep track of how many days a week I work vs how many days I get canceled.

    But dark mode is a must lol. The app is *basically* perfect.

  • This app is the best!!

    I love this app!! I can keep my schedule straight, I can add extra shift I sign up for, I can add my ETO/PTO days, I can mark my paydays, and I can change colors for which department I am scheduled to work in! Plus everything is color coordinated so I can see easily at a glance what my week will look like. I love that I can add my co-workers also and as long as they keep up with adding their schedules, I can see at a glance if they are working and even compare schedules with them.

  • Quick and Simple

    Absolutely love this app!! Originally was using my calendar app to show the days that I work but since I work overnight my calendar event always went into the next day and it all just looked messy. Plus trying to add my new shifts became bothersome. Love how you can just tap multiple days and it just shows a moon icon to represent nights (sun icon for days). Another awesome feature is the ability to see when my friends are working or free so we could plan dinner or trips together. I have even recommended this app to the nurse residency director to share with all new grad nurses to help with time management. The self reflection section of the app is also amazing to use so I could reflect on how my day went and what to improve.
    Another great thing is how quickly support gets back to you!!

  • Great app and great CS!

    I’ve been using Nurse Grid for a while now and it is so helpful. Recently I noticed a syncing issue between the site/app and my device (I use both Apple and Google’s Calendar apps). Yesterday I decided to submit a ticket for the issue and almost immediately I heard from Angel in Customer Service. She assured me the issue would be looked into. Today I logged in to the app and found a front page announcement letting all users know that the issue was resolved. That is fast work! Thank you for your continued commitment in providing a reliable tool for all who use it.

  • This app is kind of terrible

    I am new to this app, but want to use this because I would like to know who I’m working with on certain days, however, each time I enter a “event“ it gives me the same pop-ups every time trying to help me navigate the page, which is incredibly annoying, and not at all useful. it also doesn’t seem to account for 24 hour shifts, so I end up putting in two separate shifts to cover the 7 AM to 7 AM shift. So far I am not impressed by this app or it’s in her face. for some reason, this text is showing up white on white, I am unable to edit this before posting, hopefully it does not have too many errors.

    Hi there! Thanks for your rating and review! It sounds like you're experiencing some unusual behavior from the app (you should be able to create a 24-shift, and the help tips should be dismissible). We'd love to get more detail on what you're experiencing and help find a resolution. Please reach out to us at support@nursegrid.com if you haven't already!
