### 4/5 — Request

*2026-09-01, version 4.0.14*

I wrote this review to ask Nowsta to add a text option instead of call next to other employees on the job. i need to text people most of the time but the option is to only call someone.

### 1/5 — Updated app

*2026-04-25, version 4.0.12*

Absolutely terrible update. So buggy it's borderline unusable. Have to restart app almost everytime I try to clock in or accept a shift. Doesn't let you see jobs from the past over a year.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2026-03-13, version 4.0.11*

It keeps signing me out, which is a huge inconvenience when you're in an app every day multiple times for work. Also I often have to restart my phone to clock in or out of a shift, which is also a huge inconvenience when time is tight. Overall I like the function and interface, but lots of bugs since we went from light blue to the purple version.

### 1/5 — Don't update to this version

*2026-03-12, version 4.0.11*

This is by far the worst version yet. Constant glitching. I miss out on shifts because it's not uploading correctly. 3/12/2026

### 1/5 — Keeps logging me out every time

*2026-03-12, version 4.0.11*

I hate this, not sure why my company has to use this app to send shift, even with the update it always logs me out.. and i always miss the request from my shifts.. I would expect more from Nowsta..

### 1/5 — App is now worthless

*2026-03-11, version 4.0.11*

I can’t view announcements or shifts. When I click on the announcements tab, it just loads forever and then closes out the app. The whole point of this app is to pick up shifts and communicate with the team, now we can’t do that. So frustrating.

Update - 03/11/2026 The app is even worse than before. I tried logging in on the mobile site and that was fine. Used the same login info for the app and can’t login even after changing my password to the same password I’ve been using.

### 1/5 — App Not Opening

*2026-03-11, version 4.0.9*

App was fine before update but now it’s unusable, isn’t able to open properly anymore. Now I have to manually check in every day wasting my time.

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2026-03-11, version 4.0.9*

After the recent update I can’t open the app anymore it crashes immediately. I’ve deleted and reinstalled it but nothing works. This is negatively affecting my work.

### 1/5 — Completely Broken

*2026-03-11, version 4.0.9*

The app wont even launch. Just crashes. pathetic.

### 1/5 — Crashed

*2026-03-09, version 4.0.9*

App crashed, not able to open after the latest update

### 1/5 — Used to be a great app, now its ruining my life.

*2026-02-25, version 4.0.8*

This used to be such a great app for scheduling, even works perfectly with multiple employers.  But after this last major update it will just randomly sign you out and make you log back in. And that simple thing is causing me to miss out on hundreds of dollars of income every month. My fellow employees and i are working with management to explore other apps. I dont know why they would ruin such a great product, but they did.

### 1/5 — Please fix the bugs!

*2026-02-24, version 4.0.8*

I constantly have to log in, sometimes it takes ages to load after logging in making me force close and reopen. The old app was great, always remembered me and was quick to load. Also, there needs to be no minimum number of digits for the phone number. I have only 6 digits after the 021 which is unusual but it is still valid and needs to be accepted

### 1/5 — Old was better

*2026-02-12, version 4.0.8*

This new purple Nowsta makes you sign out randomly which is crucial when you trying to be the first one picking up a shift. Ridiculous

### 1/5 — Updated app

*2026-02-06, version 4.0.8*

Absolutely terrible update. So buggy it's borderline unusable. Have to restart app almost everytime I try to clock in or accept a shift.

### 1/5 — App is now worthless

*2026-01-29, version 4.0.8*

I can’t view announcements or shifts. When I click on the announcements tab, it just loads forever and then closes out the app. The whole point of this app is to pick up shifts and communicate with the team, now we can’t do that. So frustrating.

### 1/5 — They ruined their app.

*2026-01-27, version 4.0.8*

Nowsta used to be great. It was super reliable. Now it’s awful. 

It endlessly buffers when I get a job notification. Just now it logged me out and my password didn’t work. “Did I enter it incorrectly?” you ask? Yes. Through my password manager. And once I closed and reopened the app it logged me in fine.

It’s actively costing me money because, by the time I solve the issue, the shift is gone. And for what? A new color scheme and UX design. They say if it ain’t broke don’t fix it… and because they fixed it it’s now broken

### 1/5 — Don’t worked

*2026-01-26, version 4.0.8*

The app no worked Since 5 days

### 4/5 — Issues with Recent update

*2026-01-21, version 4.0.8*

Since new update home screen never loads. Other screens can be slow to load. The app constantly logs me out when I leave the app, making me sign in each time. The work I’m being sent on the Nowsta app is first come first serve, not having these extra steps is important.

### 1/5 — It’s so bad

*2026-01-14, version 4.0.7*

Idk why they would switch the confirm button and decline and I hate how it’s not green and red anymore bring back the old update

### 2/5 — Bug After Update

*2026-01-13, version 4.0.7*

I reported a bug a few weeks ago, but i haven’t heard back. The app worked correctly before a recent update, but now February shows 32 days, March with 28 days, April with 32 days. 

When I swipe from one month to another, it goes directly to the month after. When I add my availability, it disappears. Can someone help?

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-08-15, version 4.0.14*

Straight up unusable. Have to close and reopen app every time I need see how much time has passed on the clock, or to press any of the clock features. My coworkers and I could not get the app to even load on any of our phones tonight. The manager had to do all our timesheets by hand. What's the point in even having this app? When not in use, it logs you out. Worked great back when the graphics were blue, like a year ago. I can't wait for my job to use a new program.

### 1/5 — Tedious app

*2026-07-29, version 4.0.13*

When clicking a TEAM tab to view the entire team, I need to see everyones clock out time on the main list.   I have to click on each individual worker to see their clock out time and if they received a star/note.   The old version of this app was so much more helpful.
Also add a group clock out feature so I can clock multiple team members out  at once.  This app is so tedious and time consuming.   This can be made better!
Also it takes forever to load now and I have to relogin Everytime I open the app.   GET IT TOGETHER DEVS!

### 1/5 — Almost 10 months

*2026-07-23, version 4.0.13*

Ever since the update almost 10 months ago, people have been complaining about constantly being signed out of the app. When you finally are able to sign in, you then have to close and reopen the app for shifts to appear. Then after all that, it’s still showing everyone how much money you’re making with no option to hide it, which feels unnecessary and uncomfortable when you’re trying to show someone shift information etc on your phone. App used to be great, now I dread having to use it every day.

### 1/5 — Costly glitches!

*2026-07-09, version 4.0.13*

Too many times have I missed a job opportunity because the app logged me out (for no reason!)  AND then when trying to log in again, it wouldn’t recognize my unchanged password… until I close the app and open it a few times. 
So no I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND USING IT ifhad the choice… 

this last one was the straw that camel’s back.

### 1/5 — A scam

*2026-07-05, version 4.0.13*

A platform selling hr services

### 1/5 — Great before the most recent update

*2026-06-22, version 4.0.13*

Used to work perfectly but after the recent update in the last year it’s horrible. Logs me out, doesn’t allow me to sign back in, super glitchy have to clear the app repeatedly and even then often it still doesn’t work. Not sure what’s taking the nowsta team so long to figure out such glaring issues.

### 1/5 — Unnecessary update

*2026-06-20, version 4.0.13*

This app was great till they last updated it. Now its terrible

### 1/5 — Unreliable & Glitchy

*2026-06-07, version 4.0.13*

The app randomly logs me out, causing me to miss out on shift requests. The app will glitch so often and not load any of your upcoming jobs or job history.

### 1/5 — App is poorly optimized

*2026-05-28, version 4.0.13*

Sad the app never works correctly, even when it does there’s still at least 1 thing wrong, it logs you out everyday, it glitches and doesn’t clock you in, it just sucks

### 1/5 — The app is convenient but it has so many bugs!!!

*2026-04-25, version 4.0.12*

So many bugs, it’s the worst on a computer, most of the information won’t even work. I hate this new app, go back to the previous version with the blue icon

### 5/5 — Easy way to work

*2025-10-02, version 3.0.9*

*2025-08-28*

### 5/5 — Thanks for fixing that trash update

*2025-04-30, version 3.0.7*

This app was the best of its kind, they updated and it was horrid, but the old has returned thank you so much

### 5/5 — You listened!

*2025-04-30, version 3.0.7*

Really impressed that developers listened to the critiques about new format.  I found the new one clunkier and appreciate the “old” version being brought back.

### 5/5 — Poor Update

*2025-04-29, version 3.0.7*

ZERO STARS
Ridiculous amounts of glitches!  
How is it that you get a job notification but when you press on it it just takes you to a white frozen screen.
How’ is it that this app continuously LOGS you out as your trying to accept shifts 

COMPLETE GARBAGE


This app is costing people money because of this POOR UPDATE.
