I haven’t been able to access anything or even see the messages my team members have posted. I’ve deleted and redownloaded, restarted my phone, turned it off/on again, everything I can think of. It won’t go past the “user error - check your parameters and/or request body” screen and doesn’t give me any other information. I am so intensely frustrated as I’ve been sick today and just wanted to call out. I haven’t been able to contact anyone from my store or anyone who I can speak to about calling out. Please fix this!! ### 4/5 — Needs updating *2025-01-08, version 3.21.0* Needs the app to update so it’s accurate ### 2/5 — Wont let me log in *2025-01-05, version 3.21.0* was great up until tonight when it randomly logged me out and wont let me log back in now i cant see my new schedule ### 3/5 — App issue please resolve *2024-10-27, version 3.20.0* IT HAS GAVE ME THE LINK TO UPDATE MY MESSAGES NOW IM MISSING IMPORTANT MESSAGES FROM MY MANAGERS ! ### 4/5 — Great app, update ideas below *2024-06-11, version 3.15.4* Can you guys add a few things, like creating tasks for employees, more emoji reactions to chats, being able to see who can viewed your message, and the ability to send gifs? ### 3/5 — I don’t know what’s happening *2024-06-01, version 3.15.4* It was working for years and now it’s saying I’m not connected to any store even though I’m currently working at a McDonald’s ### 3/5 — It was okay at first *2024-05-21, version 3.15.0* It worked great. A little confusing, so I’d give it a 4.7 But then it started lagging. And after that, it just stopped working entirely. I’m trying everything I can - deleting cache, deleting the app, nothing works. It kicks me out as soon as I press the app icon (I have an iPhone 13). ### 4/5 — Good app *2024-05-14, version 3.15.0* My employer utilizes this app across all locations. It works good. The only issue I have is that the “Sync to phone calendar” option does not work for me. ### 1/5 — Bugs *2024-02-17, version 3.12.4* Bugs need to be fixed I’ve had the app for 2 years and it’s never been this bad. It’s not connecting me to a store and now hasn’t been working for weeks. ### 1/5 — Don’t work *2024-02-12, version 3.12.4* Don’t work! 🤮 ### 1/5 — App Issues *2024-01-31, version 3.12.4* I’ve been contacting Next support for a few weeks now and no response!!! I can’t even sign up to set up for my job!! It says “ No Store Attached “ well of course because I can’t even link my store to it!! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-01-17, version 3.12.4* I’ve been with my employer for about 2 weeks and my app doesn’t give me the option for anything just a black screen telling me I’m not attached to any store ### 1/5 — Fix your bugs! *2024-01-05, version 3.12.4* App won’t load past “loading Home Screen” page and I can’t see my schedule or my anything. Please fix this. ### 4/5 — Works great *2024-01-01, version 3.12.4* I use this app since I started at my first job. It is very useful. I got a new number and phone but I had to log in with my old number. I can’t figure out how to switch my number to my new one. And I can’t message anyone on the app But other than that it is great and will always use it ### 2/5 — Help *2023-12-30, version 3.12.4* My app is not working it I uninstalled re installed and all im getting is the spinning loading icon ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-03-18, version 3.27* The app won’t open. It keeps saying “Retry” ### 1/5 — Working dead slow *2026-01-16, version 3.26.1* Very bad app keep loading loading Working dead slow ### 1/5 — Onboarding issues *2025-06-27, version 3.23.2* This app has been real headache and I’m trying to onboard on this app but keeps saying store not found and have contacted support on it but keeps giving vague instructions and not really helping my issues on this app. I hope I can finally login in to this app and find a really helpful not vague solution to this problem. ### 1/5 — Technical Difficulties *2025-03-02, version 3.22.0* My app has been utterly refusing to open. I haven’t been able to access anything or even see the messages my team members have posted. I’ve deleted and redownloaded, restarted my phone, turned it off/on again, everything I can think of. It won’t go past the “user error - check your parameters and/or request body” screen and doesn’t give me any other information. I am so intensely frustrated as I’ve been sick today and just wanted to call out. I haven’t been able to contact anyone from my store or anyone who I can speak to about calling out. Please fix this!! Update: It fixed itself for a week or so but now it’s stuck on the white loading screen. This is possibly the worst app I’ve ever used for work. ### 1/5 — User not found *2024-08-15, version 3.17.0* I used this app and only had a login issue 1 time…. But now it has been several days still no fix for something that worked fine. As a manager I have to post stats and other things into Tia app our company has chosen( big company) no contact using the bug reporting function.well guess it won’t be long and maybe it will get fixed.kinda thought I would get a call to help fix but so far nothing…………………. ### 1/5 — Fix it please *2024-08-13, version 3.17.0* I get logged out of this app every single day and it won’t let me change my number to login to my actual number, also my bf can’t use the app at all cus it just won’t make an account for his number. ### 1/5 — Quite Literally the Worst App I’ve Ever Used *2024-07-02, version 3.16.2* Nothing on this app works. I get notifications, open the app, nothing there. I try to send pictures, doesn’t work. NEXT is the worst app I’ve ever attempted to use, and I’ve played Flappy Bird. I genuinely hope whoever does updates on this app feels immense shame. Your updates are garbage and this app makes me want to give up on life ### 1/5 — The app keeps crashing *2024-06-10, version 3.15.4* As I open the app, it immediately closes, I don’t know why. It’s really annoying, it has been doing this for a while. I like what the developers are going for with the app, but please also add an email login option, because it’s a really annoying when switching numbers and having to ask your boss to change it on their end so you can login, and if you can’t get in contact with your boss, you risk missing work which can lead to a whole bunch of other issues. ### 1/5 — Next app *2024-05-25, version 3.15.0* Wack ### 1/5 — Not working for me *2024-05-15, version 3.15.0* Please fix I gotten a new number and hadn’t work for me since I got a new number …?? What to do please help me ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2025-02-17, version 3.22.0* Thank you!!! 🙏🏾 ### 5/5 — My goodness! *2024-05-31, version 3.15.4* This app has saved me so much grief and allows me to see when there are shifts I could be working to earn by listing the days and hours available and allowing us to express interest in them right in the app! I definitely recommend this to anyone whose job uses the app! ### 5/5 — Can anyone cover my shift? *2024-05-27, version 3.15.4* I have a 105 degree fever right now I need cover for this Thursday from 4:30-12pm please also gotta get my grandpa from the nursing home at 7pm ### 5/5 — The new update *2024-03-23, version 3.14.0* The new update is glitching when I check my schedule. It won’t let me check the different days is stays on the same place ### 5/5 — Useful *2023-11-27* I enjoy the ability to check my schedule at any time, but I really wish it was a little more fleshed out and mobile-user friendly. I also wish there was a widget to see when your next shift is. ### 5/5 — I love the next App *2023-09-23, version 3.10.5* I love the structure put in place to add a sense of organization within the McDonald’s employment scheduling system this really adds a sense of purpose and structure and also reveals layer , almost a new sense of responsibility. I love this app ### 5/5 — Tnks *2023-04-21, version 3.8.0* Tnks ### 5/5 — Great app, only 1 issue *2023-01-29, version 3.6.0* This is a great app! It’s very helpful when looking for coverage for a shift! The only thing I would change is that some employees change positions in the middle of their shift. For instance if the employee starts out in drive thru then changes to grill you don’t see that change in the app. So if someone says they are interested in the shift & they aren’t trained in grill then you are still short a grill person. Otherwise a super useful app! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2022-10-19, version 3.6.0* This app is great, it tells me my hours,how much I make that day and lmk if it’s extra shifts available ### 5/5 — Great!! *2022-06-01, version 3.2* It’s great to me despite others having problems with it.
