### 3/5 — Slow and a few issues

*2024-04-16, version 11.3*

I’m not sure why but it seems to take a long time to process approval requests and it isn’t possible to enter a date range for long term volunteering which makes a commitment appear as if all hours happened continuously.  It’s also somewhat inconvenient for a volunteer supervisor to go onto the app and approve hours which is a barrier to having them approved.

### 4/5 — Helpful but needs a color fix

*2022-08-26, version 9.1*

Love this app but can you please adjust the font on the stats page to a dark color? You have white (too small) font on light grey background it is and super hard to read. Thank you.

### 4/5 — Easy to use

*2016-10-17, version 2.6*

The app helped me find places to volunteer that I wouldn't have known about.

### 5/5 — Helper helper

*2016-10-17, version 2.6*

Great app!! I volunteer more since it is so easy to use and tracks my volunteer hours!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2016-10-17, version 2.6*

Our school uses Helper Helper to coordinate and track community service. It was free for me. It's nice to know what's going on with other teams as it relates to community service.

### 5/5 — Simple & Useful!

*2014-08-26, version 2.2*

I love volunteer work, but I don't love having to track my hours for an entire semester. Helper Helper makes it easy. I can keep everything up to date with the push of a button, keep an eye on my progress, and sign up for the next available opportunities without having to do any research at all. This app is perfect!

### 1/5 — This is a great app

*2025-12-13, version 13.1*

This is a great app to help log hours. If I could give it 10 stars I would.

### 1/5 — App has no place to sign up unless you are already volunteering for an organization

*2022-11-24, version 9.4*

This app has no place to sign up unless you are already volunteering for an organization

### 1/5 — No Login For Individuals

*2022-06-21, version 9.1*

So you have to be part of an organization? You can’t be an average person trying to donate time? Makes no sense…

### 1/5 — Don Diego desde México

*2020-02-17, version 6.0*

Sorry my English no good. Helper need more language. No can understand app. App confuse me and friends. If has other language like Spanish, then we understand good. No do know how put time in. If has other language, better busines come now. Why school makes us use app of no can understand.

### 1/5 — Not good for individuals

*2018-08-08, version 4.2*

Can’t use it at all. Requiring a third party to have an account is a great way to scare off potential volunteers and ultimately will hurt those that need the help. Thankfully I’m involved with several other sites/apps so I don’t need you. It would’ve been nice though.

### 1/5 — Need to join organization first

*2018-01-01, version 3.3*

This app won’t let you sign in until you have a code from a volunteer organization, and it doesn’t list organizations that use the app.  Useless to me.

### 1/5 — Why

*2017-10-10, version 3.0*

This was mandatory for school like cmon man I don’t like helping people.

### 1/5 — Too hard to use

*2016-10-20, version 2.6*

The way schools use this app is petty it's used to track hours but requires a code to log in and out of events

### 1/5 — Must have a .edu address

*2014-11-29, version 2.4*

This only works if you have a school email address... So basically, I downloaded it and erased it within 30 seconds. This seems like something they could have told me on the description.

### 2/5 — Not working

*2018-10-20, version 4.3*

The app won’t let me login and says its not working, but when I go to the website I can login in.

### 5/5 — great

*2025-09-13, version 13.0*

great

### 5/5 — Easy and effective

*2024-07-09, version 11.6*

We have been using the Helper Helper app for our non profit volunteer procurement and scheduling for the past 2 months. This is a very simple to use app, for administration and for the volunteer sign up process (procurement). So helpful to be able to describe and offer opportunities to others and it is working. We’ve seen a significant increase of our volunteer base and we are hopeful and expecting to receive many more benefits. Thank-you for creating this app!

### 5/5 — MVHS

*2023-07-31, version 10.2*

Easy to use

### 5/5 — The BEST

*2023-07-15, version 10.1*

This app is amazing. It’s easy to book or reschedule and I can also print my proof of hours right from the app. I LOVE IT.

### 5/5 — Doesn’t work well

*2022-10-02, version 9.1*

1/2 the time it does not work. A poor App in my opinion.

### 5/5 — Great App Needs Sole Color Changes

*2022-09-30, version 9.1*

A great app used by my kid’s school for tracking volunteer hours over the year. I’m still not getting push notifications but it might be user error on my end.

One thing that could be improved is the colors on the stats page. The white lettering on light grey background makes it impossible to read. Hopefully an update will fix that very shortly.

It would be nice to be able to link accounts among a family to be able to see a family grand total of hours and broken down by hours per family member.

### 5/5 — Nice custom branding with the bridge!

*2022-03-09, version 9.1*

It’s been a great app for me! Love being able to see opportunities in my community

### 5/5 — Excellent way to volunteer

*2021-07-16, version 8.7*

Love this App, allows you to see all the volunteer opportunities in your community. I will check to see if they offer other areas as well.

### 5/5 — Great App!!

*2018-01-19, version 3.3*

This app has been a tremendous tool to track service hours!

### 5/5 — It really does help!

*2016-10-18, version 2.6*

Helper Helper is simple. I am not great with technology and I have no trouble using the app or portal. Tracking service is no longer a headache, thanks to Helper Helper :)
