### 2/5 — Does the Job

*2023-06-21, version 18.0*

The app fits the purpose, but it’s very laggy, doesn’t allow users (iPhone at least) to edit the profile since the text boxes keep jumping up and down, keyboard doesn’t respond either

### 2/5 — My App just keeps refreshing

*2022-03-04, version 11.0*

My app just keeps refreshing itself then it shows no shifts after it refreshes

### 4/5 — it’s alright

*2021-11-08, version 11.0*

the app is brilliant. i can find flexible shifts that don’t clash with college or my personal schedule however, the app logs me out for some reason and i have to keep signing in🤦🏾‍♀️ it would be great to fix this issue

### 3/5 — Customer Support ok

*2021-10-25, version 11.0*

Customer support is ok but the app is buggy on iPhone. Unresponsive fill in fields, can’t get started using the app

### 2/5 — Technical Impracticality

*2021-07-19, version 8.2.0*

Can there be an option to remain signed in, so annoying to constantly log in and you miss notifications.

### 2/5 — App design

*2020-01-24, version 7.1.6*

The new app design is horrible, all the shifts don’t show in the shift section you can only see them in “favourites” and when you try and book them it says that the shift is no longer available

### 2/5 — Unavailable shifts

*2019-10-16, version 6.1.0*

My rota app isn’t working, I can’t see any available shifts. I’ve already sent an email to the Rota team and didn’t get any response same thing with the ticket they tell us to send through the app.

### 3/5 — Nice app not so support contact

*2019-09-27, version 6.1.0*

Hi I have sent 4 emails for payslip issues. It would be nice to have an answer. Almost a month has passed since the first issue.

### 1/5 — Inaccessible and frankly ridiculous

*2019-09-04, version 6.1.0*

For the INTERVIEW they specify what you must wear which is fine, if you have it but they will mark you down if you just dress appropriately for an interview. Their reasoning for this is that they “want to check you can follow instructions”. It is simply ludicrous to ask applicants to buy the uniform before even being offered a job. You’d hope their interviewers would have the brain cells to assess whether an applicant can follow instructions from talking to them but it appears not.

If you can’t afford to buy a uniform before you know if you have a job, then don’t bother. I’d like to think you would have a fair chance regardless of getting a job, regardless of how well off you are before starting but not here.

### 1/5 — No shifts

*2019-08-18, version 6.1.0*

Seems like a good idea but haven’t been able to get any shifts. In the last week I’ve applied for over 25 shifts and been put on the waiting list for every single one. A complete waste of time.

### 1/5 — Not happy

*2019-07-21, version 6.1.0*

Very upset with this company , I’ve applied to many shifts and have not been accepted by one. They have put me on the waiting list for all shifts in the ‘event that someone drops out’. This is not convenient at all as this means there is an 80% that you’ll be sitting at home with the hopes to be accepted. And even if someone drops out you have to apply again and wait to be accepted. Maybe there system is bias or something.

### 4/5 — Nice platform for people looking for work

*2019-07-05, version 6.1.0*

Rota is a very nice app for people looking to make quick money however certain elements need to be looked into I.e when applied for shift you are not selected at times and how can that be improved.

### 1/5 — Having hard time to sign in

*2022-10-04, version 14.1*

I’m having trouble signing in as I don’t have a invite and don’t know how I can get one.don’t know any other flexible job apps

### 1/5 — Keeps logging me out

*2022-01-06, version 11.0*

In a day I have to log in about over 10x, it’s quite frustrating, hence why I would have to give it a 1 star. If they sort this out then it would be a decent app.

### 1/5 — Absolutely pathetic

*2021-08-15, version 10.0*

Got my account deleted with no further explanation. Waste of my precious time.

### 1/5 — Absolute joke

*2021-04-12, version 8.2.0*

Don’t be ridiculed by those idiots. This is just something pumping out from your hours pay doing nothing. If you call there service desk, the English they speak, god bless it’s something in between Eastern Europe and UK... this a bunch of amateurs very smartly pumping desperate workers hard earned money... they have millions in there apps and only a few are happy as this is designed only to give a loop to big companies to use staff with zero hour contract. If doesn’t have a family to feed and have whole 24/7 to open your mouth and wait till a schedule to come and work a day or two to the most demanding people with no respect.. this is the place

### 1/5 — I can’t create an account

*2021-03-17, version 8.2.0*

The app won’t let me use it and it doesn’t give me the option to create an account

### 1/5 — I have just wasted my time

*2020-02-12, version 7.1.6*

They have never paid to me the hours extra. I have written mln of emails but nothing. They reply kindly but forget to give your money!

### 1/5 — NO, DONT DO IT

*2020-01-14, version 7.1.0*

This app is very confusing to navigate let alone understand.

No instructions or options, just bad al round

### 1/5 — No Session showing up

*2019-12-15, version 7.1.0*

I’ve just gotten the app a month ago, hoping to get work for the holidays at home since I’m currently in uni and there are no sessions showing up at all. When I first signed up there were, and now there’s none. I don’t understand why this is happening and honestly I hadn’t signed up anywhere else because I had high hopes and didn’t think this would happen. My friend who also uses this app is getting sessions, so what’s going on.

### 1/5 — !

*2019-10-11, version 6.1.0*

Bad company

### 1/5 — Jade

*2019-10-08, version 6.1.0*

What an Awful company. Interview process was a joke. Very unorganised, unfriendly and judgemental people. Took a good 20 minutes to even start the interview. Even the other interviewees were unfriendly and unapproachable. At the interview, I was anxious and nervous as they made you role play in front of a large group of young judgmental people in an unrealistic setting. As I was nervous and anxious, I made a few mistakes. However they didn’t even have the decency to tell me in person that I hadn’t got the job, instead asked for my availability before copping out and using the app to tell me I had been unsuccessful. They take your picture and photocopy of your passport before you have even got the job. Pretty sure that’s violating data protection ... Then after telling me on the app, there isn’t even an option to delete your account permanently, or the data they hold of you. Really really badly organised, unfriendly and unprofessional company. At least bother to hold one on one or more personal interviews for people with anxiety or suffer with nerves before refusing them the job. I’m a great waitress with 4 months experience and always got amazing compliments from customers. This company will take their staff for granted and judge you on the interview off looks and first impressions. Very unfriendly company.

### 5/5 — David

*2020-12-22, version 8.2.0*

Rota is a great app and with great rates of pay. 
The only thing is after the last update I’m always logged out of the app every time I leave it. 
Hugely inconvenient having to login each and every time. 
Please sort this out.

### 5/5 — Best app to find flex work!!

*2020-06-22, version 7.1.6*

Great Flexibility with the best pay rates

### 5/5 — Great App

*2020-02-07, version 7.1.6*

New look is so much better than the old one, much easier to navigate and understand and looks more professional!

### 5/5 — The best ever

*2019-12-19, version 7.1.0*

Rota forever!

### 5/5 — Truly awesome

*2019-12-13, version 7.1.0*

I’ve have a full time job and have done shifts through Rota getting work in my days off going to some really awesome places like Wembley Stadium and nice hotels I can’t wait to do more shifts when I go freelance next year.

Phil

### 5/5 — Fab agency, fab app

*2019-12-10, version 7.1.0*

I can’t find any fault in this app, it works perfectly and the system is great. I really wish I’d found Rota earlier as booking shifts from here has made my life so much easier and I love being able to choose when and where I work.

### 5/5 — Fake and misleading slots given for onboarding!!

*2019-06-05, version 6.1.0*

Hugely disappointed. I have gotten rescheduled 3 times for their orientation/onboarding day with almost no notice from them (notified my place on the program was cancelled 1 day before the date). Ironic that the app apparently rates their workers on their reliability, when Rota themselves are appalling. Not waiting any more, too much of my life wasted on this app. DELETED!!

### 5/5 — Amazing concept but lack of shifts

*2019-05-22, version 6.1.0*

Recently there’s been a big lack of shifts however with at least £9/hour being the standard pay it’s hard to complain. However they only make shifts available to you that they believe you are ‘suitable’ for, this results in even less shifts.

### 5/5 — Good one

*2019-04-10, version 6.1.0*

I like the app but would like it more if the app view was stretched a bit for iPhone X screen. :) Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great app, great agency

*2019-02-05, version 6.1.0*

I’ve been working with Rota since 2016 and they are doing really good and they deliver a great customer service. I’ve seen the app developing itself for the better. It’s more clear and detailed than before and their number of partners has really triple in 3 years. 
Good Job Rota !
