Seems like an iOS update issue. If they can fix this, I will praise the app once again. ### 3/5 — Andere Erwartungen | zu umfangreich für mobilen einsatz *2018-04-05, version 2.2* Für kleine oder redaktionelle Produktionen nicht so sehr zu empfehlen, da der Großteil der vordefinierten Felder unausgefüllt bleibt, die freigelassenen Bereiche aber trotzdem im finalen PDF-Layout dargestellt werden. Habe bis jetzt keine Option zur Anpassung (entgegen der beschreibung) entdecken können.. Schade! Die Produktion, die diese Fülle an Informationen auf der Dispo benötigt wird wahrscheinlich eher zu einer Desktop-Variante zur Erstellung greifen. Hatte gehoft ein günstiges mobil-tool für kleine Teams (5-7 pers) zu finden.. 8€ für die katz! :( ### 3/5 — Great but need work *2017-12-25, version 2.2* The app has great potential. But It took me 30 to figure out how to include the the cast call time information on the sheet. And I still haven’t figure that out. Plus, there are lots of Manuel entry. And not an option that could allow me to duplicate so I can move faster. Lastly, sinking phone and the iPad is also not that obvious! ### 4/5 — I love it BUT NEEDS a Preview!!! *2017-08-05, version 2.2* I think it's great! But would love to see a preview of the call sheet before I send. Or instead of sending a few copies to myself before I send it out. Also I wish I could delete some of the positions off of the call sheet when working on smaller jobs! That would be amazing. And the only other thing in regards to smaller jobs... when I shoot EPKs I don't need all these options. It would be nice to be able to delete certain positions so it's customized for EPKs or Documentaries! Thanks though a great app! 👍🏽 ### 4/5 — A solid option , does what it says *2017-05-02, version 2.2* To be honest as an independent filmmaker I found this app to be more than adequate for seven dollars you get a lot for your money. For those people who whine and complain about the fact they have to load their contacts into their phone it looks like they already found a way around this on the new version. What I would like to see is for the program to remember things that you've already written so that when you go to a new day you don't have to write the information and over again that part is simple and should be addressed immediately. Anyone who is not previewing the CallSheet by sending an email to them self prior to the entire production obviously shouldn't be in moviemaking and doesn't understand the necessary procedure to make sure that things are correct before sending them out to the whole group. One feature I would like to see added to the app and I'm not exactly sure how they would go about doing it is placing the cast and crew phone numbers either on a separate sheet that is pulled from all the information that is entered into the other fields or somewhere in the table where it list the cast and crew. Having the title and the call time and the name of the person listed is great but on an actual piece of paper that's not gonna help someone who may need to call that person who doesn't have those contacts in the phone. I think this app was written with the assumption that the only person that would be contacting anyone in the production would be the person making the call sheets on a small independent movie that's not always the case. To those people who complain about it not having a lot of graphics and visual appeal while I do agree that a place for the logo would be a nice representation of the product I think that this no-frills basic sheet printed out and easy to read manner is exactly what we need. I don't really have any more to add to this we used it on the production last weekend and it was able to keep people organized dramatically better than when we were using other programs. I saw people complaining about how it takes time to enter the data in an iPhone and I do agree that if there was a way to get it onto like a website interface or even an iPad or tablet that that would be helpful however if people are too lazy to take the hour two hours to punch in the information to export what is an amazing amount of information in one spot then they probably shouldn't be a movie making. My congratulations to all the developers and my hope is they find someway to get the phone numbers incorporated into the CallSheet that is printed a workaround for us was using the notes section on each of the cast members to have their phone numbers however we alternately still did have to add an Excel spreadsheet with all of the productions phone numbers on it to our call sheet packet. I look forward to seeing what new features are released if any at all and will continue to use this for a very long time to come. For those of you who complained about the seven dollar price tag you obviously don't know that it cost a great deal of money to make a movie some of our low-budget production cost $100,000 and they're small short student films. ### 5/5 — L'appli qui facilite les tournages!! *2014-03-28, version 2.0* Une super application qui automatise la rédaction des feuilles de service. De nombreuses fonctionnalités ont été ajoutées et tout fonctionne à merveille et très intuitivement! Good job! ### 5/5 — 1st AD for "Cold" *2014-03-22, version 2.0* Excellent app that is easy to use and awesome customer service! They got back to me ASAP on a question I had, which was appreciated because we were on such a tight timeline. ### 5/5 — Cool and Easy *2013-10-29, version 2.0* Loving this app. I do a lot of one day shoots for various corporate clients and promotional videos. Being able to grab info directly from my phone and load it right into the app has saved so much time and energy. It’s a great way to organize your projects and your shoots so that there is no missing info. I do a couple of test emails with the call sheet to myself, making sure everything is in place and when it’s all good, off to cast and crew it goes. Nicely done. ### 3/5 — Importing contacts *2013-05-15, version 1.4* I agree...having to import from address book is really annoying...there should be a way to just manually input...and possible add "logo" option...when will there be an update???!!! ### 5/5 — An excellent app *2013-02-20, version 1.4* This is a fantastic app, that delivers on its promises. Information is entered, organised and then a professional call sheet produced in HTML or PDF format. It even emails it to the appropriate cast and crew. Couldn't recommend highly enough. ### 5/5 — Just Awesome *2012-09-21, version 1.4* The app itself is GREAT! More importantly, the support is timely and knowledgeable. I know that I will be a life-long user of this product. Thanks for putting this out. It meets the measure of a changing environment in the acting workplace and makes me feel good about going paperless, which is also very important for me. ### 4/5 — Great app! *2012-08-10, version 1.4* This app is great for anyone in the film industry, or even photographers who want to up the game and look even more legit. This app not only helps keep everyone in the loop and organized, but it also makes call sheets so easy and quick to put together and send out to everyone you want in a few simple taps of your thumbs! ;) I'm not quick to review apps until I've used them for a while and my only complaint is that there's a stamp at the end of each watermark saying "this call sheet was made with pocket call sheet." If there was an option to get rid of that and also an option to pick what fields show up on the final call sheet I'd give it 10 stars. :) we've chatted with the peeps behind the app and they said they're working in the tag at the end of each sheet. Can't wait for the next update! ### 5/5 — Impressed *2012-07-03, version 1.4* The call sheets look great, and the distribution options are really a deal maker. You can send as PDF, HTML, or both to everyone or just some people on the call sheet through the 'additional list' options. Having to import from contacts has been complained about, but while it took me a bit of extra time at the beginning, having everyone in my production programmed into my phone has proven to be invaluable, and it's something I wouldn't have done otherwise. The developers are incredibly responsive, and provide excellent customer service. Well worth the price. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This FAILED ME! *2016-06-11, version 2.0* The app would have saved so much time if it actually worked. Exported the file after putting in hours of info only for it to disappear when exported. Costed me time and money. I want a refund.You guys really let me down... ### 1/5 — Buggy *2014-10-20, version 2.0* The idea is great. Would be useful if not for the bugs i've experienced. After filling in the fields and preparing email to send out to cast & crew, ALL information regarding their call time, pick up time, Hair & MU call time etc. disappeared. Fields are now blank despite going back into app & triple checking that the info is there. Won't be an effective app until updates happen. Do not waste your money or prepare to be frustrated. I have emailed the company and am awaiting a response. Will update my review if/after they help resolve the issue. ### 1/5 — Buggy and Hard to navigate... *2014-03-28, version 2.0* This app couldn't even help me run a five day shoot. Actors names disappeared. It crashes without saving and they have the temerity to advertise their product on the bottom of the call sheet. DONT USE THIS! ### 1/5 — Aweful!!! *2013-09-16, version 1.4* Who would want to manually input all the information on a call sheet?! No one in the film industry has time for that! If you want a real easy app that only requires you to import a call sheet check out FilmTouch. If this app could implicate an import feature then it might be worth the six bucks. Very disappointed :( ### 1/5 — Good idea - bad realization *2012-09-11, version 1.4* I don't understand why everybody see the mistakes in this app but give more then 3 stars Inputting every crew member from Contacts is the only one thing that can destroy all reasons to use this app Also empty positions in final call sheet is an outstanding silly thing Why should I and everybody look to lots of empty and not needed words. The great idea of app when you just fill in forms and then get a good designed result is not working It is better to do simply in Numbers Russian translation is awful!!! ### 2/5 — What happened?! *2022-11-22, version 2.3* More than 2 years and no updates? What’s happening with this app? There was so much potential here and then…nothing… ### 2/5 — Nowhere near enough control *2014-01-02, version 2.0* Working on a small indie production, the amount of blank space in the final sheets looks like amateur hour. If a section, like SPECIAL FX, MISC EQUIPMENT or TRANSPORTATION is left blank, it should not appear AT ALL in the sheet. We should at least have the option to remove the sections manually. All in all, it's like an excel sheet I can't really edit, but with the nice bonus of working well with my contacts list. ### 2/5 — Needs work *2012-04-26, version 1.3* The app is ok in concept, the problem is it forces you to have all people associated with a production in your contact list. It's a good additional feature, however, there MUST be a way to enter some or all of the info manually WITHOUT having it in your contact list. Also the app lacks almost any graphics, it needs a lot of visual polish. It's just clumsy and awkward to use and enter data. Needs to be fast. Basically you have to have everything planned out before you get privilege of Re-Entering everything in this app. It has a lot of potential but needs work before its a quick efficient tool to be used on a production. I hope the developers consider this. ### 2/5 — Good but not great *2012-01-10, version 1.1* The app is good, but limited by the fact that one requires everyone's names & numbers to exist in Contacts to be inserted into relevant sections. If I could input data manually that'd be a great improvement. Ability to delete or edit fields would be brilliant also. In all honesty without the above features this app is not worth the price. ### 2/5 — Change fields *2011-06-10, version 1.1* You can not personalize fields. Shame!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It does the job *2025-08-18, version 2.3* Have used many times. Gets the job done. ### 5/5 — I like it *2022-08-01, version 2.3* The app does what you want. It’s great for most projects. I like the one off fee vs subscription. It works for me ### 5/5 — Good *2017-11-16, version 2.2* Ideal and easy to use. Worth it ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2016-10-19, version 2.2* I love this app! Easy to use and the call sheets come out beautiful! ### 5/5 — I love this product! *2015-04-24, version 2.0* I hated using other software like Excel to create call sheets. This one is easy to navigate and send to your cast and crew. I will use this app from now on in my career. ### 5/5 — Awesome Tool *2014-12-20, version 2.0* This app has saved me countless hours sitting in front of an excel speadsheet (which I don't know how to use) trying to put together call sheets. It does take a little playing with to learn but once preproduction is ready, just put everything into the app and create your call sheets way ahead of time making adjustments when the schedule calls for them. Gives your crew and cast advance schedules for days out on their call sheets once you put everything in. Best $10 I spent in film school for preproduction and has come in handy as an AD and line producer on over a dozen short films. Pick this up!!! It, combined with a few other basic apps (weather and sunrise), can help your workflow on a film go easily if you're in the production department!!! Well worth the $10. ### 5/5 — Love this! *2014-11-16, version 2.0* Very happy with the app and have emailed customer service a few times... As I am not technology savvy... And they always get back to me quickly! Most of the issues that I thought were bugs are not. I just didn't understand how to use the app. Now that I figured it out and have used it for a few productions I am hooked. I would highly recommend!!! It's made my life as a producer much easier. ### 5/5 — Improved dramatically *2014-08-08, version 2.0* I used this to handle a very fast moving two week shooting schedule and it performed excellently on my iPad 3. The developers responded quickly to my questions during the production and their improvements since have given me confidence I would be able to handle whatever my next project throws at me. Once I was able to add people who were not on my contact list the application became what I expected it to be. In today's hand-held production environment I feel this tool moves the production process right out of the paper world and into the real world of connectivity and quick response. It was the right app for me back then and I will be suggesting it to others as things advance. Also liking the new iOS7 style. In future it might be nice to compile all the distributed calls into a single PDF record to archive for the production. ### 5/5 — Love It! *2014-04-06, version 2.0* This App is just what I needed. ### 5/5 — Extremely helpful! *2014-03-28, version 2.0* Such a great resource! I've shared this with other film professionals and they have been nothing but pleased with this new app. Very accurate and it saves a lot of time. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
