### 1/5 — Lied on info

*2025-09-25, version 1.0.5*

Can’t customize as it says

### 3/5 — Can we get an update

*2025-01-22, version 1.0.5*

It’s said coming soon forever now and I know android users can do so but if we were able to change the color it would be nice the yellow just makes it non readable

### 3/5 — Cannot change shift color

*2024-08-06, version 1.0.5*

Tried customizing my calendar but I am unable to change shift colors. It just says more settings coming soon.

### 4/5 — Very good app with some small hiccups

*2024-07-14, version 1.0.5*

Good app for tracking shift-days and off-days. I wish you could write notes in on certain days…like if you pick up OT or came in late for some reason.

### 4/5 — Works fine

*2024-06-22, version 1.0.5*

Does what it’s supposed to do. Simple with minimal ad space. 

Developers: please make it obvious what day it is. Like what the current day is. It’s annoying to open the calendar and not know what day it currently is. I know it’s minimal and I shouldn’t be so dumb to not know what day it is… but we all know the fire life mixes days together.

### 4/5 — More Colors

*2024-01-05, version 1.0.5*

I love the app. Just wish it had two more colors (white and gray) to make it look more like our shift calendar.

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2023-09-01, version 1.0.5*

Would be great if could change the colors of the calendar on my iPhone. My Boyfriend can full customize it on his galaxy

### 4/5 — Need ability to change labels

*2023-05-03, version 1.0.5*

Nice simple app. My department has an uncommon shift pattern and this app has it.  It seems like the developer has not supported this app in a long time based on other reviews. Everyone is asking for the ability to change shift labels. Seems like that feature would make sense. For me, the actual colors are fine but I need to change A to green B to blue, and C to red.

### 3/5 — Highlighted days

*2021-07-27, version 1.0.5*

I like this app, but the one huge issue I have with it is that it dose not highlight what day it is. So If I forget what the date is today I have to look at my watch figure out the date then I can look at this calendar to figure out if I work.

### 4/5 — Works good

*2021-07-02, version 1.0.5*

App works good. Lots of shift options. Would love an option to change shift colors.
