I ended up deleting it because it kept shutting me out everytime I went to add in a shift. ### 1/5 — Michelle *2014-06-06, version 1.9* Worse app I've ever downloaded!! Doesn't even work!!! Deleted!!!! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2014-05-29* Horrible, crashes constantly, takes forever to update the event you just added. Just pay the $1.99 for "Shift worker" ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2014-05-23, version 1.9* Doesn't even deserve 1 star ### 1/5 — Terrible *2014-04-21* App barely works. Not even functional. Crashes all the time. Useless. ### 2/5 — Needs tutorial and *2014-03-20, version 1.9* Simple enough but a tutorial would be good. Fiddly to set up. Dates are not English. I deleted app. ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2014-03-09, version 1.9* It looks like a great app, but every time time I open it, it crashes. The odd time it manages to open and stay open, it crashes as soon as i try to turn on iCloud. ### 1/5 — Awful! *2014-02-08, version 1.9* Keeps Crashing. Rubbish! ### 1/5 — Keep crashing *2014-02-05, version 1.9* Keeps crashing. Useless ### 1/5 — Why release an application that doesn't work? *2014-01-20, version 1.9* I wasted an hour of my life this morning trying to get this working. It won't! I only gave it a rating because I can't submit my review without it. Doesn't deserve even one star. ### 2/5 — Principle Great but doesn't work *2013-11-16, version 1.9* The idea of the app is great, however when you go to add shifts to your calendar ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2013-11-08, version 1.9* Keeps crashing. Unable to set the shifts as it won't function when you select them. Waste of time & effort. Do not download unless updated. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2013-10-23, version 1.9* Don't waste your time? Rather purchase a tried and tested app... ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2013-08-29, version 1.8* On opening app, can't get past message about supporting iCloud! Not much use really. ### 1/5 — TJ *2013-08-05, version 1.8* Can't open stuck on first screen re iCloud!! annoying ### 1/5 — App does not work *2013-08-01, version 1.8* When I first downloaded there was no way of adding any entries to the calendar. Now when I click on the app it opens for a few seconds then closes itself. ### 1/5 — Can't open *2013-07-14, version 1.8* I wish I could review it properly but I can't get past the welcome bit. The welcome message pops up but with no cross or ability to tap it away I can't check out the app. I don't know if it has something to do with this mobile being a iPhone 4S but I am glad I didn't pay for this. ### 1/5 — Waste *2013-07-02, version 1.8* Just downloaded this app and it does nothing but give you some message about iCloud did what it told me to do still nothing. Absolute waste of time. ### 2/5 — Disappointed *2013-06-18, version 1.8* Was working great until it stopped letting me add shifts?? What good is that?! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This application not working *2016-10-29, version 3.2.2* Could you please look in to this. This application is not responding at all. I purchased it hoping that it might work but looks like I wasted my money. Could you please fix this or refund me back. I had no choice but to give you a one cause that was the only way to send my review. But honestly it's a zero rating ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2015-05-11, version 3.1.2* It is easier to use your calendar for shifts, and less work. ### 1/5 — Nothing works... *2015-05-10, version 3.1.2* That's all. ### 1/5 — Crap *2015-03-03, version 3.1.2* Must manually enter shift for every day for a maximum of one month. Forget this and get 'Shift Worker' (picture of cup) Create a shift cycle and enter it into calendar for 2 years max with one click. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2015-02-22, version 3.1.2* Worse app I've ever had ### 1/5 — Lousy *2014-12-05, version 3.1.1* Lousy ### 1/5 — Uselesd *2014-11-12, version 1.9* Horrible app. Keeps crashing, it only lets you program 3 types of shifts, waste of data. ### 1/5 — What a rubbish app. Full of crop. Keep on crashing.. *2014-11-12, version 1.9* Should not uploaded it. It doesnt say what the description is... A waste of time. Full of crop, rubbish and keep on crashing which given me a lot of headache!!! Does not even deserve a even one star! ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2014-11-05, version 1.9* Very frustrating app to use. Glitches galore! ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2014-07-20, version 1.9* NO GOOD ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Piff *2013-01-15, version 1.4* Great app Just go to setting and change the Chinese symbols to English words, works a treat! ### 5/5 — So far so good *2012-08-11, version 1.3.1* I downloaded this app this morning and so far it has been really good, I find the inputting of data really easy. I don't agree with other reviews on here. ### 5/5 — Anybody can use *2012-05-22, version 1.2* Very easy to navigate very easy to use ### 5/5 — Good app *2012-05-13, version 1.2* Would be better if you could put shift pattern in so you don't have to keep clicking it ### 5/5 — No problems *2012-04-30, version 1.2* Easy ### 4/5 — Great App! Until last update.. *2013-02-19, version 1.5* Have been using this app for some time but since last update, all I get now is a black screen. Please can you fix the bug issues ASAP! Other then that the app when it worked was simple, easy and did exactly what I wanted. A more eye catching icon would be nice but so far so good. Look forward to future tweaks! ### 3/5 — Was a good app *2013-02-28, version 1.6* If you have this app do not upgrade it because it wipes all of you input. And you have to start again need to fix this. Also should make it so you can enter a 3 week cycle and it sets for the year ### 3/5 — Ok *2013-02-28, version 1.6* Had it for a while now. Worked great until now. I am unable to add new shifts to my calendar since the last update. Hopefully this big will get fixed. ### 3/5 — Good idea *2012-12-14, version 1.4* Very nice app. Simple to use and nice to be able to see notes. However, to make this 5 stars the following is needed. Ability to add shift patterns More colours Ability to add times shifts start / finish Ability to add more then 1 pattern I now use this app in place of the paid ones ! Good work. ### 3/5 — A good app *2012-05-01, version 1.2* This is a good app, simple to update but it would be so much better if it automatically synced with other devices. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
