I will move the appointment. It will say it’s moved and then it won’t move. Or it will say I don’t have time when I do have time so then I will have to cancel appointment appointments and then reschedule it entirely. ### 4/5 — Aveda stylist experience with salonbiz *2026-06-16, version 7.3.5* This is actually a really great app for so many reason especially with the new tip update, but there are many bugs. Many times in the past ive been unable to use the app die to server issues, also im limited as to what im allowed to do on it as a service provider since my salon owner places restrictions although they say its the apps fault, im not sure which is true but the restrictions are real. All in all i can track every little detail and even see my progress over the years. Everything from service and retails sales down to average dollar spent per ticket and things like total cc tips for the week. Im also able to book guests in public like i did tonight at dinner, id say four stars is very fair for this app. ### 4/5 — CarPlay *2025-08-23, version 7.3.5* Please make it able to receive notifications through CarPlay. ### 3/5 — Not enough options *2025-02-26, version 7.3.4* The fact that you can only look at one day at a time is a huge hindrance on the mobile app. It’s hard to reschedule clients on it. ### 3/5 — Please show tips *2025-02-18, version 7.3.4* Please show tips ### 4/5 — New update *2025-02-07, version 7.3.3* Ever since the new update it’s still telling me I need the new update. So I have to click over to update and there is no update because I’ve done it already. Waste of time. ### 3/5 — Gets the job done but…. *2024-12-28, version 7.3* The UE design is a little convoluted with so many options. I wish the interface was more simplified. ### 3/5 — Checkin and out feature and processing payments *2024-11-03, version 7.3* It would be helpful if you can check clients in and out from the app and process/close out tickets once service is complete ### 2/5 — App needs update *2024-09-04, version 7.2.4* Is not notifying me when clients check in ### 3/5 — Stat reports *2024-07-03, version 7.2* Please ad a glossary of metric terms so we understand what they stand for. Please include our Gratuity performance as well. ### 2/5 — New icon looks like this is a period tracking app. *2024-06-19, version 7.1* They probably didn't do a test market group before they launched this. ### 4/5 — Finally! Big update! Love it! *2024-05-03, version 7.1* This update was a complete overhaul executed amazingly. New and clean UI, more notifications, can see more stats (tips included) Easier to adjust timing on appointments.. i could go on and on!!! THANK YOU! ### 3/5 — It’s ok *2024-01-30, version 6.4.2* It does what it needs to but the systems regularly have issues. The overall interface is just ok as well, navigation could be slightly easier too. ### 2/5 — Can’t see schedule on I watch anymore *2023-08-23, version 6.3.2* You have so many comments saying that you put it back on on August 11. No it’s not back on and this is the end of August now. Please fix this bug! I can no longer look at my schedule on my watch. To tease people with the ability to look at your schedule on you watch and then take it away with the recent update. Makes my day harder not being able to use my watch in this capacity. our salon will soon be voting on either keeping salon, biz, or moving to a different program. Currently I am voting to move. Get your program working properly and I might vote for yours. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Salon owner *2026-07-23, version 7.3.5* We are so frustrated with this new and “improved” system. It take twice as long to do any function. The layering is confusing, it does not reflect past pricing It’s impossible to read communication from guests if they leave a message from confirmations. We need help!! ### 1/5 — One star *2026-07-07, version 7.3.5* We switched from VARGO pro and they were so much better. I love the layout. It was just so much easier. ### 1/5 — SHOTTY TECHNOLOGY *2025-11-13, version 7.3.5* Half the time it never let you enter a formula. Errors always soooooo annoying ### 1/5 — Notifications & Reminders *2025-09-04, version 7.3.5* Unlike other platforms, salon biz does not consistently notify practitioners of bookings, moves, or cancellations. Providing text and or email about bookings to clients regarding reminders, customize, verbiage, and confirmations failed to work ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2025-06-10, version 7.3.5* No text confirmation to guests I can’t book clients outside of my hours scheduled Can’t view the entire month Can’t view the entire day without having to scroll Can’t see or adjust prices when booking Can’t charge less on a service ticket but can’t charge more at check out. Makes it more time consuming when we have to delete a service to put in another just to charge accordingly I have more concerns these are just a few ### 1/5 — Needs an upgrade *2025-04-25, version 7.3.5* Glitches and is so basic …with technology today, do better! ### 1/5 — Ok not great, some bugs *2024-07-26, version 7.2* The app doesn’t always alert me of a new appointment or if the client has made an appointment. The app also doesn’t allow you to tell the difference between a client that cancels their appointment and a client that simply moves their appointment. I’ll get an alert that they’ve canceled when they have rescheduled an appointment. Also the app doesn’t; allow you to move the appointment within the dame day to a different time, I have to look on a desktop for that. I also cannot see the ticket unless i am on a desktop…It would be easier if i can truly do all of this from the app! ### 1/5 — App keeps crashing *2024-02-04, version 6.4.2* !!!!! ### 1/5 — Fix the Watch App *2023-09-07, version 6.3.2* Still does not work on apple watch ### 1/5 — Apple Watch app *2023-08-10, version 6.3* With this newest update, the app was deleted off of my Apple Watch. Please add that feature back! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Reliable *2026-07-30, version 7.3.5* Nice app with consistent updates that work.

The revamp is so user friendlyand most important, it’s fast! Prior to this upgrade it took a long(frustrating)time for the app to load just to book appointments. I also find the new features makes booking, changing and rescheduling appointments so easy. Thanks for the redo, keep it up, please and thank you! ### 5/5 — New update has all the features we’ve been waiting for!!!!! *2024-05-02, version 7.0* This new update is a game changer!!! ### 5/5 — Why did you take the app off Apple Watch? *2023-08-10, version 6.3* Mostly a review about how I updated the app and now the app isn’t on my Apple Watch. What happened? ### 5/5 — Upgrade *2022-02-11, version 6.0.2* I absolutely love the new feature enhancements! The ability to see multiple days and staff on my phone is game changer! ### 5/5 — This app has been a real save *2022-02-07, version 6.0.2* Thank you salon biz and to all the hard working staff for really working to constantly improve the app. We use pocket salon almost exclusively to process payments, allow clients to set up future appointments and purchase products remotely for in store pick up. The techs have always been super responsive and have been open to passing along suggestions. All our clients love the convenience! ### 5/5 — Loving it *2022-01-31, version 6.0* As someone who has been using the StylistApp for years, it is so amazing to see the new multitude day, multiple staff view!! Keep the updates coming!! ### 5/5 — Thank you! *2020-07-31, version 5.3.2* Our salon is paperless now!! This app has been so helpful in creating a touch-less work environment during these times. And they are constantly updating to make it better. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
