Wages are also wrong. Needs to be updated. ### 4/5 — Previously requested *2025-02-04, version 10.2* Multiple day input… if the information is the same everyday (not a comeback) it would be awesome to fill out the entire month. Disability etc. ### 3/5 — Decent app but… *2024-07-30, version 9.3* Constant annual fee increases yet we contend with ads?? You work for PMA don’t you?!😡 ### 2/5 — Pay wage *2024-07-15, version 9.3* I switch to casual and local, my pay scale is not corrected. I compare my check to this app n the numbers dont match up at all. It makes it frusturated on whats our true pay. Fix it please ### 3/5 — Constant problems this yr. *2024-04-11, version 9.1* Every other time I have to delete the app because it asks me to repurchase when I already have. So I delete, redownload, and it works again for at most two times….. ### 4/5 — Dark mode! *2023-10-03, version 8.7* Please add a dark mode like every other app has. ### 4/5 — Simplicity *2023-08-22, version 8.5* Nice app for a physical Time Book replacement. Intuitive and ease of use are the pluses. However the price has gone up every year and still have roving ads. I would like to see an update where you can purchase a no ad version. Normally apps are free and you pay only for the no ad feature. I realize this is relatively unique so the charge for the app is an obvious. Please off an ad free version upgrade. ### 2/5 — Not worth $5..or $3. *2023-05-02, version 8.4* Not even worth $2 unless you’re too stupid to do a little addition. I can use a free app.. This greedy developer has raised this from .99 to $4.99 on iPhone in only a few years because people are lazy. ### 3/5 — Great Idea but renewal is interesting *2023-01-04, version 8.1* It says the renewal is available at 2.99 however iPhone users are prompted to pay 4.99. I also just came back from disability and purchased it at 4.99, and a couple days later had to repurchase at 4.99 for 2023. ### 3/5 — Disappointed *2022-03-05, version 7.3* Great app needs to be updated, missing some jobs in the job selection category ie… KDP. Very disappointed that I pay for an app and have to deal with advertisements. ### 2/5 — Job descriptions *2021-04-16, version 6.4* Need a lot of the old job descriptions put back on do you have a accurate accountability of work to go with pay all of the new job descriptions don’t accurately describe work being done in the port of Tacoma all the job categories are different then our jobs that we have thank you !!! ### 2/5 — Jobs *2021-01-23, version 6.0* I downloaded this app works good but it doesn’t have top pick or strd job category ### 4/5 — Great App! *2021-01-02, version 6.0* Been using for about 5 yrs now,calendar has improved for canadian users Latest update is missing First Aid category. But still a solid app. ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-12-20, version 6.0* I love the app I use it everyday and it’s such a necessity, I was wondering is there any way you can incorporate the steady calendar some how just a suggestion thanks. 👍🏼 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2026-01-06, version 11.0* why charge annually Not worth recurring charges at all ### 1/5 — Gone steal my money huh *2025-04-23, version 10.4* Here we go again now I have to pay again what the f😡😡😡 ### 1/5 — Could be so much better *2024-02-01, version 9.0* Things don’t work, email CSV file doesn’t send to emails. ### 1/5 — This app should be free of charge *2023-09-11, version 8.5* The developer should not be profiting off the union and PMA. This should be a free of charge app provided by the union and/or PMA ### 1/5 — Exporting to Importing *2023-01-30, version 8.3* Is there a way to export from android over to iPhone to import all our info? ### 1/5 — Time Book *2022-01-01, version 7.0* Doesn’t work for 2022. What the … ### 1/5 — It's preset to TOP PAY *2020-11-21, version 5.14* It's all messed up and I can't get an accurate idea of how much I'm getting paid. I was thinking I was going tk vet more but the app is incorrect completely wrong by a lot as much as $200 over paid on the app. Don't like this app at all ### 1/5 — Mine stopped working and it’s paid up *2020-01-27, version 5.1* Not working ### 1/5 — Regarding ads *2019-03-05, version 4.14* Why I am seeing ads when paid for this app get rid of the ads ### 1/5 — App won’t open *2019-01-18, version 4.13* I downloaded the app successfully last year and it kept my time recorded, then all of a sudden I went to use it for the first time this year 2019 and it shuts down instantly, I’ve made 5 attempts to delete and download the app again on my phone at it does the same thing just shut down when opening. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Difficult to reach developers *2026-02-08, version 11.1* Excellent app for longshoremen. ### 5/5 — Can you incorporate 70%? *2025-08-04, version 10.6* Killer app love it, is there possibility for an update for i.d’s being able to assist you on 70% completion. ### 5/5 — Best app on the waterfront *2024-09-26, version 9.4* I use it every single day big props to the brother that put this together for us ### 5/5 — Great App for Longshoremen to easily keep track of hours/ jobs *2024-08-21, version 9.3* Only thing I would change is to allow all on more than one device so it would store info in cloud I believe ? Not exactly sure about the storage or IT in general, my career path is not that but if I lose my phone or need to input info on a different device like iPad or computer at home I would like them all to sync without having to backup every time. Then if I use a different device I have to find file back up and re enter all my info or enter new info that has not been entered since the last time I used that device, keeping track of my hours on more than one device or a new device would be so much easier with this and also save time . I am thankful for your app it’s great other than this little cloud idea . Thanks for your time ### 5/5 — Best Longshoreman tool. *2024-02-10, version 9.0* Minor adjustments are needed but still very accurate. ### 5/5 — Worth it. Use it daily. *2023-10-11, version 8.7* Fantastic App. I use it every day to track my shifts. Has great report features to track hours and finances that you just can’t get from using a calendar the old fashioned way. Support is very responsive for updating holidays and pay rates. I can’t recommend this app enough. Well worth the few bucks a year they charge. ### 5/5 — Bernie *2021-06-17, version 6.6* Great job on this app. Will recommend it to my brothers and sisters here local 13. One question. I cannot update or save my hrs work. Tells me no e mail on file. I do have an e mail on the app. Can you guys fix it for us. Thank you ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2021-06-04, version 6.6* This app is awesome makes my life so much easier! Love that you have everything right at your fingertips no more looking for your time books!! Great job keep up the good work! Forgot the price is great for what it offers!!! ### 5/5 — Helpful!!!! *2021-05-08, version 6.5* Love this App!! Wish it had hourly rates ahead of time for future raise increases ### 5/5 — I neglected to use this app for a long time *2021-03-16, version 6.4* Now I use it everyday! The app is great. Not complaining, but if there was anything, the interface could use a modern update. It looks old school, lol. Total career hours was a little tricky to calculate to be accurate if you never used this app from the beginning of your career. There should be an easier way to adjust your career hours for pay rate calculations. Figured it out though. Wish list for features (Just spitballing); Notes- yes it exists, but if there were some additional fields for notes, that would be cool: UTR/Trans/Top truck number, reep number, beak time, boss name, gang names, radio channels, etc. Maps integration when inserting job location. All it needs are GPS Coordinates to the parking lot with a call function to a maps app. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
