### 3/5 — Can't MFA on mobile

*2026-07-24, version 3.0.44*

Great overall on web but mobile is so tough to log into to the point I can't use the app. Only offers a QR code to enter which is difficult to use when already on mobile and then it just loads forever and never completes.

### 2/5 — Most annoying payroll app I’ve used

*2026-07-22, version 3.0.43*

It’s asinine I need to 2FA my personal device in the middle of a shift to take lunch or clock out. Especially being I work in the field with low connectivity oftentimes.

### 2/5 — Latest update made it less useful

*2026-07-09, version 3.0.43*

I used to be able to easily see if I had a change request pending and now it is hidden or invisible.  It’s a big problem.

### 2/5 — Was better before the update.

*2026-07-01, version 3.0.43*

I used Rippling to track time with my employer. At first I could open the app, and click 2-3 times and enter the hours worked. Then there was an update I guess? Now I have to click 7-8 screens and they aren’t user friendly.
I would not recommend this app since all the changes were made- it’s much harder to navigate.

### 2/5 — Worst payroll app I’ve used

*2026-06-28, version 3.0.42*

You’ll get 1 good update followed by 2 terrible updates. Freezes and breaks often. Bad UI.

### 3/5 — Good but bad update

*2026-06-16, version 3.0.41*

I really enjoyed Ripples but the update is just awful and not user friendly both on the app and the site.

### 1/5 — BUTT

*2026-06-15, version 3.0.41*

this is the worst app in the world

### 3/5 — Buggy - can’t MFA

*2026-06-14, version 3.0.41*

It’s pretty buggy. For example I cannot login using 1Password because the consulates login screens won’t let 1Password operate on the MFA screen.

### 2/5 — As an employee

*2026-06-12, version 3.0.41*

This is super glitchy and often freezes when trying to clock in or out forcing a shut down. The constant reminders that one needs to take a break,take a meal or approaching overtime is super annoying. I am compliant. I do not need a babysitter.

### 1/5 — Recent change doesn’t make sense

*2026-06-12, version 3.0.41*

There are too many changes and the last one really doesn’t make sense. Now when I need to clock in, it says clock in to unscheduled shifts. Why?  I just need something that tells me when I’m clocked in and when I’m clocked out. Please change the app back! Rippling is making this much more difficult than it has to be.

### 1/5 — Go back to the old app

*2026-06-11, version 3.0.41*

New changes are terrible please fix and put it back the way it was. It was fine before y’all ruined it with this new update!

### 1/5 — UI is terrible!

*2026-06-11, version 3.0.41*

The most recent update to the app has either hidden or removed basic features that no one was complaining about, and has made for an incredibly frustrating experience. For example: I am no longer able to log my weekly hours on a timecard as I could before (and can still do on my desktop); only the basic clock in / clock out option is available. Would recommend other apps on the storefront, or simply sticking with using Rippling on your PC, as the quality of its mobile app has severely gone downhill.

### 1/5 — New Update Bug

*2026-06-11, version 3.0.41*

When viewing the schedule the option the start the week from Monday is missing. Kindly add that feature

### 1/5 — App is horrendous after update

*2026-06-11, version 3.0.41*

I loved the Rippling app, it was so easy to clock in and out, and take care of corrections and other payroll tasks. With this new update I can’t find anything anymore, and still can’t figure out how to clock in or submit corrections. 

Absolutely terrible UX now

### 1/5 — Too Convoluted

*2026-06-10, version 3.0.41*

Rippling may be great on the business side, but on the employee  side, it’s terrible.

If one corporation has multiple businesses, in order to write a message for just one business, you must filter out the other locations. There are multiple filters and one can get lost in the filter system. It’s not intuitive at all.  It’s too convoluted and not intuitive. 

Trying to change a time on a time sheet at the end of a shift can be very confusing for those who are not software literate. 

Sometimes one can clock out for a break, then clock back in, only to find out that at the end of the shift, Rippling did not clock you back in. When you clock out at the end of the shift, you then have to try and figure out how to make a change request.

### 2/5 — Very limited

*2026-06-04, version 3.0.41*

This app may be ok to see your payroll, but if you are the manager or owner of the business then it is severely limited and even hides important approvals from you. It will say “nothing to approve” when the desktop app has important bills pending. Rippling needs to make this app more useful rather than dumbed down like it is now.

### 1/5 — Commission

*2026-07-24, version 3.0.44*

We were told if we worked very hard and did our turns and our leases that we would get a commission that was supposed to be paid today the July 24 !!! we was not paid and we had like 13 turns 15 16 leases I’m not sure.  But we did not receive commission.

### 1/5 — Does not match website description
