### 4/5 — Keeps switching months

*2025-06-19*

When this calendar works properly, I love it, as I work a 28 day cycle 5Work 4Off 5W 5O 4W 5O and it was easy to program. My only complaint is every so often it shifts by a month, so when I look at 2025, the first month is named December, 2024, but the schedule is correct for January 2025. My June month right now is labeled May, so it’s a bit confusing if you quickly look at it and forget that it sometimes has this quirk

### 3/5 — Widget

*2025-05-21*

Die App ist ganz übersichtlich und einfach zu bedienen ich nutze diese jeden Tag jedoch fehlt mir die Widget Funktion das wäre im Jahr 2025 glaub ich nicht verkehrt.

### 5/5 — Tolle App!!

*2024-10-23*

Im großen und ganzen ein toller app! 
Einfach zu planen und einstellen der Schichten. ich benutzte schon mehrere Jahre die App. 
Eins könnte man verbessern die Ferien sind nicht markiert wenn man den jenigen Bundesland auswählt!!

### 5/5 — Das ist die Beste Schichtapp

*2024-06-18*

Ich habe schon einige Probiert. Aber diese App ist die beste.  Mann kann seinen Festen Schichtturnus eingeben und die App erledigt den rest. Das bietet sonst keine. Sehr übersichtlich gestaltet! Einfach nur Top! 
Ich nutzte die App jetzt schon fast 5 Jahre

### 4/5 — Tolle App, aber….

*2023-10-09*

….leider werden die Ferien nicht mehr angezeigt. So finde ich die App für Schichtarbeiter klasse, leider fehlen mir aber die Ferienzeiten. Ich hoffe das dass bald behoben wird

### 1/5 — Pb interface

*2023-04-27*

Je ne trouve aucun réglages pas de menu et cela ne ressemble pas du tout à l app sur le site

### 4/5 — Le top

*2023-01-09*

Bonsoir j’animerais savoir si il y auras une mise à jours pour l’iOS 16 pour avoir un widget sur l’écran de accueille ça serais bien plus pratique

### 4/5 — Bonne application qui peut être encore un peu améliorée

*2023-01-06*

Est-il possible dans l’option ajout quart de travail de ne pas être limiter à 5 et d’augmenter cette fonction.
Merci

### 4/5 — Schade

*2022-12-13*

Es werden weder die Ferien noch die Feiertage angezeigt, die erste Zeit hat dies noch funktioniert, wird wohl nicht mehr gefleht

### 5/5 — Super app

*2022-06-19*

Die app benutze ich seit Jahren und bin damit echt zufrieden, ich hoffe es werden regelmäßig updates kommen und Verbesserungen, leider musste ich aber feststellen das die Schulferien ab dieses Jahr nicht angezeigt werden
