Please get it together!! ### 1/5 — Wished I could delete this *2026-08-04, version 3.5.4* I have to use this for work. It is the worst app ever constantly receiving errors never loads having to reload and constant updates that never fixes the problem ### 1/5 — Absolute disappointment *2026-08-04, version 3.5.3* Always throwing red errors instead of loading your schedule. I delete and redownload the app and it doesn’t help, having the latest update still doesn’t help. Pointless app if I can’t see my work schedule from home. ### 1/5 — Trash app *2026-07-31, version 3.5.3* Always broken. ### 1/5 — Frustrada *2026-07-30, version 3.5.3* Frustrating having to constantly update app and what is more frustrating, this is for my work schedule, no other choice. ### 1/5 — Endless updates *2026-07-29, version 3.5.2* The amount of updates required for this app is excessive! Pretty much every week or every few days. One star for that :( ### 1/5 — Never working *2026-07-29, version 3.5.2* This app never works. I have to use it for work of course and I am PRN and trying to pick up extra shifts. But I can never look at the schedule because it never loads. This app is just a pain in the butt to use and I don’t wanna text my team members because I may or may not be able to work that day I’m asking about. It’s just a huge pain in the butt to use. ### 1/5 — terrible genuinely *2026-07-28, version 3.5.2* Wish i could view my schedule and see which days im working, oh and what if i want to pick up more shifts? CANT cause the app has been crashed out on me for days ### 1/5 — Rarely works *2026-07-28, version 3.5.2* Always throwing red errors instead of loading your schedule. I delete and redownload the app and it doesn’t help, having the latest update still doesn’t help. Pointless app if I can’t see my work schedule from home. ### 1/5 — Always a problem with this app *2026-07-26, version 3.5.2* Issues non stop. Always has pop ups. Always not working for one reason or another. Really annoying. ### 1/5 — Not opening after forced update *2026-07-24, version 3.5.2* New update made it so I cannot open the app at all now I’m having to call my manager while I’m on vacation to ask questions about my schedule. Not the first issue but the last straw. Terrible app. ### 1/5 — An App for Work that Barely Works *2026-07-24, version 3.5.2* Writing this review because I have to “update” this app yet again. If this weren’t required for work, I would have deleted it a long time ago. I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve used it without running into bugs. Most of the time, it’s unreliable, inconsistent, and frustrating to use. Every update promises improvements, yet the same issues keep coming back—or new ones appear. An app that’s supposed to make scheduling easier shouldn’t be constantly throwing errors or failing to work when you need it most. Instead of simplifying work, it often adds unnecessary stress. ### 1/5 — Always produces errors *2026-07-24, version 3.5.2* Use this app for work. It has steadily gotten worse over the past 5 years. Especially since switching to timpani. Constantly have to log back in. Always produces an error initially and you have to back out of it. You’d think HCA could afford to have a working schedule app for their employees. ### 1/5 — New update no change *2026-07-24, version 3.5.2* A million updates and I still can never see my schedule. I guess that’s what happens when we rely on AI ### 2/5 — Ok *2026-07-23, version 3.5.2* Find a way to integrate calendar to iPhone or Google Calendar please. ### 1/5 — Needs to be abandonware *2026-07-23, version 3.5.2* Garbage app. This is forced on workers, nobody wants it. ### 1/5 — It’s slow *2026-07-23, version 3.5.2* The app sucks. There’s always updates on it, but nothing changes. It’s so slow and laggy. Half the time it doesn’t even work and yet there’s so many updates that fix nothing. ### 1/5 — Not the worst but a lot needs to be fixed *2026-07-23, version 3.5.2* Beats having to find the schedule online but why is it like having another social media app? One that constantly has to be updated, logs me out randomly, and always has a giant note plastered everywhere about a glitch. Why does it need an update every week only for the same pop up about it not working to appear every time I click on something??? ### 1/5 — AI should not be scheduling humans *2026-07-22, version 3.5.1* Constantly not working. Have to reinstall and that doesn’t always fix it. Haven’t been able to see the schedule in a week. Put work preferences in and get a random schedule. Can’t easily pick up shifts. Manager no longer has ability to fix schedule issues. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Why *2026-08-28, version 3.5.5* It literally couldn’t be any less reliable if it tried. ### 1/5 — White screen and constant maintenance *2026-08-27, version 3.5.5* I honestly never cared for it because the app would work when it wants to, however now my app won’t even load. It’s just a white screen and the logo won’t even pop up. I’ve uninstalled and installed multiple times and it still won’t show the login or even my schedule if it hasn’t signed me out. ### 1/5 — Schedule *2026-08-25, version 3.5.5* Where did the schedule option go to? I don’t even see it on here anymore ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-08-23, version 3.5.5* In order for anything to work you have to delete the app redownload most likely delete again and it still doesn’t work!!! ### 1/5 — Just Bad *2026-08-22, version 3.5.5* Constantly updating, and for what? The app never gets any better. Embarrassing tech for a multibillion dollar company. ### 1/5 — Logging in *2026-08-20, version 3.5.5* If I didn’t have to use this app for work I would delete immediately. It crashes soooo often I end up just getting my schedule from my manager because of how unreliable it is. I have to log in and do the dual verification every time. It will often crash in the middle of login in and have to do it all over again. ### 1/5 — At least they’re consistent? *2026-08-19, version 3.5.4* Constantly “buggy” and throwing errors at all times. HCA puts as much care in this app, that countless employees have to use, as they put into prioritizing patients over profits. ### 1/5 — Constantly Updating *2026-08-12, version 3.5.4* Redownloading and updating the app once a week is not ideal. ### 1/5 — PCT *2026-08-05, version 3.5.4* This the worst app for work. It needs to be updated more often and it never works I only use it for work and if I didn’t need it I would delete it. Please fix it. ### 1/5 — Schedule *2026-08-05, version 3.5.4* Since switching to timpani and updating the app I can hardly ever see my schedule. This is the only place we are told to find the schedule and it is frustrating considering we can’t even view our schedule here. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works fine for me *2025-12-16, version 3.3.0* The app has improved overtime and is easy to navigate. Works fine for me. 12/16/2025 ### 5/5 — Much better *2025-11-01, version 3.2.0* The app has made great improvements. Good job developers. Keep it up. ### 5/5 — Update profile *2025-08-26* How do you update your profile? Need to make this easier to do. Employees change job titles and get promoted to different units. **Developer response:** We sincerely apologize for the trouble you've had with the app. We'd be happy to take a look into this for you. Please contact us at HCAInspire@HCAHealthcare.com and provide your 3-4 ID, facility, department name, and device type, and we can troubleshoot from there. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Good App *2025-04-13* I use this for work and it works the way it should. Sometimes updates break the app but they’re quick to fix them. **Developer response:** Thank you for the review! We are constantly working to improve the user experience in HCA Inspire. ### 5/5 — Steady improvements *2024-11-16, version 2.6.1* Starting to see slow but steady progress with this app, far from perfect but helps us keep up with my busy schedule. ### 5/5 — Unable to see schedule *2024-10-18, version 2.6.0* Now it’s working !!!!!! ### 5/5 — EDIT: schedule works now!…Not showing schedule *2023-10-17* Edit form original post: This app has been restored and the schedule works now! Great app. This app is pointless now because it doesn’t show your schedule. That’s the only reason why I downloaded it. The support team has been contacted many times by pretty everyone who uses it and still no resolution. When it did show your schedule, it was great. It’s been well over a month, and still doesn’t work. **Developer response:** Thank you for the updated review! We are so glad the functionality has been restored and the app is meeting your expectations! If we can ever assist, please reach out to HCAInspire@hcahealthcare.com. Thank you! ### 5/5 — User friendly! *2021-09-15* Even with the Limited Computer Knowledge, we can use this app easily. If it’s not working ,it must be internet connection. I love the schedule page ! I can access to it from my phone itself. It tells you who you are working with too! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the review! Glad you are enjoying the app. ### 5/5 — Love this!!! *2020-08-28, version 1.2.1* I love this app!! I love the access this gives me to my schedule and my information. I now can see who I’m working with and can track my career. ### 5/5 — Honest feedback - Please READ *2020-08-09* After spending sometime reviewing all features within the app, I don’t understand why there are so many low reviews from people who cannot access. This app is amazing, I can check on my schedule, block my PTO days and have a better understanding of my working hours at any time with the click of a button. I been a nurse for over 15 years and this is the first time I been offered a tool that can help me at work at the tip of my hands. IGNORE the comments from those who can’t access it yet, cause they don’t know what their missing once your able to get in and play with this tool. Thank you for your efforts, and stay safe everyone! **Developer response:** Thank you very much for this feedback. We are glad you are enjoying HCA Inspire. Thank you for all you do. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
