Went to go schedule an interview and they are booked out till June but my trip is in May. Bit the bullet and bought the app. Within 30 minutes, I got a notification for an opening in April. The $5 was worth the hassle by far. It was extremely helpful! ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2025-01-13, version 1.0.1* This app did what it promised! I went through the global entry application for my husband and me just two weeks ago and was not able to get appointments for both of us within the next seven months (we want to travel abroad four months from now). This app sent us notices about earlier openings within several days. I was thrilled and reserved them. But that meant that we had to travel twice to the airport office that is about 100 miles away. Today I got two alerts, one immediately after the other about two consecutive available appointments! I logged on to two computers at the same time and snatched them up! I feel like the bird … what a perfect app for the task! By the way: I checked out the other apps that promise to do the same thing. Maybe they will … but only after you have upgraded to premium for twice as much as this straightforward honest app that tells you right up front. The best $5 I ever spent! ### 5/5 — It works *2025-01-04, version 1.0.1* I rarely write app reviews but this app does exactly its job and is a must if you’re looking for an interview. Within 15 minutes I was sent a notification for an available appointment at SFO and booked it on the govt portal. Before downloading the app there were no available appointments when I first checked, and resigned myself to not getting global entry before my intl trip..this was well worth the money! ### 5/5 — Great customer support *2025-01-02, version 1.0.1* The app worked perfectly for Global Entry- I could see available appointments in the app and regularly received notifications about these GE appointments. But when I wasn’t receiving Nexus notifications, I reached out to the developer who explained that I’d accidentally bought the wrong app (Global entry instead of Nexus) and he went above and beyond in resolving my issue. ### 5/5 — Simple, cheap, effective *2024-12-23, version 1.0.1* Honestly, not much to say besides “works like a charm”. Hated paying the $5 (because I’m cheap), but the app is simple, clutter free, no ads, and within 24 hours I had been sent multiple notifications about newly opened up interview slots at CLT, which is infamously always booked up. Was able to delete the app almost exactly 24 hours after downloading because I got me an interview scheduled for next week. ### 5/5 — Does one thing and one thing well *2024-12-19, version 1.0.1* Got an interview appointment with Global Entry set up the day of downloading this app. 1/5 the price of other monitoring services. ### 5/5 — Worth the $5!! *2024-10-27, version 1.0.1* I was accepted to schedule an interview in late October 2024. I couldn’t get an interview slot until April 2025. Within TWO DAYS of having the app I snagged an appointment within the same week (October 29th) that someone must’ve cancelled. I don’t have time to check incessantly and a bunch of different locations so this app was a lifesaver. Thank you thank you!! ### 5/5 — Interview in 2 weeks *2024-10-22, version 1.0.1* At Austin Enrollment Center there wasn't any appointments available. The app notified me about the availability on the next day after my purchase. Totally worth the money! The interview appointment is in 2 weeks, which is fine given the high demand. ### 5/5 — Holy moly! It works *2024-10-17, version 1.0.1* I just bought this app 15 minutes ago and it found appointments for me and my family already! ### 4/5 — Does what it’s supposed to - could use a few more filters. *2024-10-09, version 1.0.1* Quickly shows accurate available appointments. Pop up centers like Columbus OH were a little hard to find, but are there. Also, you can set an end date, but no other filters. We can only do weekend appointments, would be great if you could specify to only alert appointments on specific days of the week for a specific location. I’m getting regular alerts for appointments I can’t actually use. ### 5/5 — Must-Have Tool! *2024-09-24, version 1.0.1* This app does exactly what it needs to do and sends alerts. However, make sure you’re already logged into your account on the website so that you can try and grab the appointment. I was able to get 2 appointments using this app but it took a while because I kept missing out. If I didn’t try to book the appointment IMMEDIATELY after getting the notice they would be already gone. Patience and persistence and this app will help you get an appointment. ### 5/5 — BEST MOST SIMPLE APP EVER!! *2024-08-05, version 1.0.1* This is how all apps should be…simple, effective and don’t need permissions to access your personal info to get the job done! I started getting alerts less than 12 hrs after downloading the app. Worth the $5.00!! THANK YOU for creating this!! ### 5/5 — It works! *2024-07-22, version 1.0.1* The other notifications apps require you to pay a monthly subscription or make an in app purchase. This app was a low cost one time fee so I decide to risk it and I’m glad I did. A day after getting the app I got a notification that an appointment opened up the following week. I was able to move my appointment up by 2 months. ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-07-09, version 1.0.1* This app is great! I got an appointment within 4 days of downloading the app. The price is right and it works! ### 5/5 — Would have been over a year to get an interview in NC if not for this app! *2024-07-02, version 1.0.1* So I am going to Europe in August. I applied for Global Entry in early June. I live near Charlotte, NC- surprisingly, the turn around on my application approval was within 5 business days. For my Mom, she applied in mid to late June and it took about 1.5 weeks to get her approval. In NC, the only airport in the whole state that does interviews is the Charlotte airport and it was booked out for over a year. And if an opening happened and you didn’t get on it with a minute of it opening, the appointment would be gone- that’s how in demand it was! So this app saved my butt. I got multiple notifications a day with cancellations and I finally got one that worked with my schedule. Within a week of downloading this app, I got my interview (the interview itself lasted about 5 mins max and I received my global entry card within about a week. Honestly, I was shocked how smooth and fast the process all went for me, but maybe I just got lucky). The only thing is, if you are in a high demand area like NC, you have to get onto the Global Entry website IMMEDIATELY to obtain the opening that comes up! Unfortunately, there is no direct link from this app that notifies you of the appointment opening to the actual Global Entry site where you make the appointment, so I recommend having the Global Entry website login page open on an internet tab on your phone ready to go for whenever you get a notification. Then when you get a notification, just pop over to your internet tab that’s already open, put in your login info, and grab that appointment immediately without wasting any time. My tip to you- be sure to not already be logged in to the GE website. I tried that in an effort to save time for when an appointment opened up, but the site times out and then when you open your page back up later, it’s all messed up and refresh and hitting the back button doesn’t work, so you are forced to do a full on new internet search for the GE website again which adds seconds to your time, but every second counts- at least in NC- when trying to nab an opening. So just have it set to the login page where a quick hit of the refresh button will bring it back if needed and have your login info memorized so you can quickly get back on. I, also, recommended the app for my mom who lives in Jacksonville, FL. She was trying to get an appointment at Sanford, which was booked up beyond the point of when we were leaving for Europe in August (but there were availabilities in August). She literally downloaded the app last night and got an appointment set this morning for a few days from today. Overall, super helpful app! Couldn’t have done it all without it, especially in NC! My process of getting my GE card went from what would have been over a year’s process to all of it being completed within a matter of weeks because of this app. Also, there are other online options out there that charge you $35-45 for the same thing, but this only costed what I believe was around $5 making it so worth it! Don’t be gouged by the other options out there! Go with this one! Thank you, makers! ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-06-08, version 1.0.1* I had to schedule an interview for my newborn daughter and the closest location I could find was 2 hours away. I bought this app and within 12 hours I was able to find an appointment two days later at the center next to my home. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Didn’t work for DEN *2026-01-23, version 1.0.1* I purchased the app and after a few days of nothing, randomly logged into the CBP website and an appointment was available (but wasn’t doable for us). I refreshed the app and it never showed up. Once that time passed, another appointment came up on the CBP website for three days in the future. It never showed up on the app. It never worked for me and was a waste. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2025-03-30, version 1.0.1* This app genuinely does not work. Selected my location and enabled notifs and the app just closed out and won’t re-open. Uninstalled and tried again and that’s all that happens… waste of money ### 1/5 — Useless App *2025-02-04, version 1.0.1* I set up a notification alert for appointment before 03/31/2025 in Boston or Rhode Island. No notification yet. Then I went on the Global Entry website and searched for an appointment, found one on 02/25/2025 in Rhode Island, scheduled it and am happy now. Waste of money for this app. ### 1/5 — Interviews never show up *2024-08-19, version 1.0.1* I log into the website immediately upon getting a notification and they’re already gone. Not sure if this is delayed in getting notifications compared to other services but I’ve tried 20 times and they’ve always been gone. ### 1/5 — Did not send push notifications *2024-05-23, version 1.0.1* stay away. Notice how the developer gaslights people in the comments because they wont admit their app does not work for everyone. I receive no push notification after the first that worked for a test locatin. I got an appointment because I refreshed the page myself, but his app never sent a push ### 1/5 — Worked one day *2024-04-17, version 1.0.1* First day, it sent me notifications. After that, nothing. The app is showing appointments at the centers I want, but when I log in, there are no appointments for those dates/times. App still shows them available days later. No notifications since first day. Tried to delete and reinstall- didn’t work to fix the issue. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2024-04-02, version 1.0.1* 4/1/24 - purchased this and set up two locations. Have another free browser monitor running on my desktop which found a big window of evening appointments released, which allowed me to schedule an appointment. Later on, there were 6-8 apparent cancellations throughout the day, all of which were found on the desktop browser. This app didn’t make a peep the entire time. I will be requesting a refund when I can. ### 1/5 — Not as advertised *2024-03-01, version 1.0.1* I’ve tried making an appointment within a minute of about 30 different notifications but there were no appointments available. This app alerts you randomly and without appointments actually being available. You’re better off checking the website daily. ### 1/5 — Virtually useless *2024-02-07, version 1.0.1* The app is great in telling you there’s an appointment. But that doesn’t get you anything. Save your money for a latte and pay more for the app that actually sends you a link to login and sign up for an actually appointment. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-11-06, version 1.0.1* I don’t get notifications unless I sit there and manually refresh the app, which makes it useless. I’ve double checked that my notification settings are enabled and the app can run in the background, and there’s no issues there. But when I refresh the actual scheduling website, I see several appointments that the app hasn’t showed me. I’m guessing the refresh settings are too slow to capture them, but they’ll exist on the website for > 1 minute so it’s just odd. So unfortunately this app was a waste of $5. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best $5 I’ve spent *2026-04-11, version 1.0.1* I’ve been trying to get an interview at a specific airport for MONTHS. I finally was about to buy a plane ticket to travel to ATL (a few states away) as that was the only place that had openings. I decided to give this app a try and OMG it notified me later THAT DAY of an appointment in my home city in just a few days.! I had already checked on my own that morning and nothing was available so would not have checked again. Thank you to whomever had this brilliant plan. ### 5/5 — Worth it! *2026-02-21, version 1.0.1* I decided to give this app a try after reading mixed reviews. I downloaded it and within 24 hours was able to book an appointment. It saved me from having to buy a flight just to get an appointment. ### 5/5 — Worth it!! *2025-11-05, version 1.0.1* Totally worth the purchase! I was struggling to get an interview for 2 weeks. Downloaded the app and got a notification for an opening the next morning and got the interview done the following day! ### 5/5 — Was initially skeptical *2025-10-21, version 1.0.1* 3rd party app that costs money, with its most recent update being 3 years ago. BUT, it did its job and it did its job well. I've been trying to find interview spots for weeks. I swear, some of these folks felt like vultures the way they pick up the free spots so quickly. Found this app, and realized why people were so quick with it. Very simple but efficient UI. No regrets buying this app. Saved me the headache of constantly checking for new cancellations or newly opened spots. ### 5/5 — Wow! Totally Amazed. *2025-07-18, version 1.0.1* I’ve never written an app review. But this one by far exceeded my expectations. App was easy to use, actually too easy and simple that I thought this can’t be all that you do, but that’s it, simply selection your location. The earliest appointment time for Las Vegas was August 29. I downloaded the app today 7/18/25 at 06:30 and I already had an appointment for 7/24 by 07:00. I received another 6 or so notifications throughout the day for July & Aug appointments that’s wouldn’t work for me and I just reschedule at 16:30 for tomorrow 7/19/25 @ 09:40 am. Now that’s what I call same day service, best $5.00 I’ve ever spent, so it deserves a review. Extremely satisfied customer!!! ### 5/5 — This app is the berries! *2025-06-21, version 1.0.1* I downloaded the app and within a day or so, snagged appointments for both my husband and I. We had been approved for the interview; however living in the Charlotte area, we were unable to get anything prior to the end of July. We happened to be traveling to Seattle for an Alaskan cruise, so I plugged in SEATAC for openings. We had our interviews early this morning and we received our approvals within a couple hours. Sure beats paying $25-$30 for the appointment services online. Money well spent. Hopefully, we will get the to use the TSA pre-check for our return trip home next weekend. ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2025-06-04, version 1.0.1* Admittedly skeptical by how low tech the app is but it works! Tried to get an appointment at SFO and first available was 3 months out. Within the first hour I received several notifications and then eventually hit on an appointment SAME DAY! Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Simple and it works! *2025-05-29, version 1.0.1* Downloaded the app this morning and this afternoon interview options appeared. I have been watching the interview site for 5 months and never an opening in my area of the Midwest. I was ready to fly to Denver for the interview, the app was much cheaper. So happy!! ### 5/5 — Does what it says it does *2025-04-17, version 1.0.1* I’ve been waiting for a month try to snag an interview in Saint Louis. Finally purchased this app and within 4 days it posted available Saint Louis interviews and I snagged one on a Saturday. Within a couple min all the Saturday interviews were gone, so highly recommend paying the $5 and getting this app and then leaving the TTP tab open on your laptop or phone so you can schedule an interview immediately (you can’t schedule an interview through the app. It just notifies you when interviews are available) ### 5/5 — Worth It! *2025-04-02, version 1.0.1* Installed this app, got an appointment for an interview literally the next day. This is the most useful app I have ever purchased. Thank you! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
