Shift Worker calendar

Update: thank you for your response 27/9 unfortunately the update has not improved matters and I remain unable to open the app it simply crashes. I have used this app for 16 yrs and it is so disappointing that I have now lost so much data. The last time it worked for me was update 1.6.8. or 1.6.6. No issues then. Not working following recent update. Please fix for iPhone. App won’t open!! Been using for years, now I have lost all shifts and notes!!
Update: 1.7.2 has enabled me to use Shiftworker again, thank you for fixing the problem. However all my data has been lost…
But I will use again as it is a brilliant app for people like me who work various shift patterns.

Getting better already!

Funny how irate you get over something that costs a few pence! Anyway my earlier review was written in a state of panic. I should have reported the problem first.. As the guy who devised the app responded immediately. Turns out that my problem was simply my settings for the clock. Changing to a 24 hour clock sorted the glitch. Mark is working to get it fixed. I did buy another app that functions well but isn't as aesthetically pleasing.

Editing problem fixed

After iOS 27 update edit button doesn’t work. Fixed now

Please fix the notes display!

I love this app, but the one thing I find very annoying is that I can’t view all of my notes. There is plenty of space to write lots of notes for a shift, and there is also plenty of room underneath the calendar to view them all.

Unfortunately, once a note is saved, it only shows the first line, which is often only the first 5 or 6 words. I find this so frustrating when I have several things happening in one day, as I can’t see everything I have written without going back into Edit Note.

I’ve updated the app to the latest version (1.7.0), and although there is now a bigger notes screen, once the note is saved it still only displays one line.

Please could you allow saved notes to wrap onto multiple lines and use the available space underneath the calendar so that the whole note can be viewed?

Notes not updating

I have been using this app for about 8 years and it’s literally my life admin! However since upgrading my phone recently, whenever I try and add some more text to an already saved note it will not appear. I have tried deleting the note and adding again with all the text but then the whole note won’t appear. Please help!!

No longer any good

I have been using this app for many years, it’s functionality was great for what I wanted, and I used it daily,
Sadly, since the last update, the app no longer opens, this is very disappointing as I have recorded all my working shifts on it, and shifts into next year,
I’d like the developers to fix the issue, so I may continue to use this app.

Unable to share since latest update

The app has always been a bit glitchy, but for a free app with no adds and shareable with another app user. It’s been perfect for my needs. However. The latest update to 1.6.8 the share feature is no longer working - receiver does not get prompt to download from email anymore. I’ll give it a day. But my life is in there and on the hunt for options now.

Easy to use

I have used this App for years , easy to use . Thanks for updating to the 27 version .

I love this app!!!

I have been using the IOS27 beta for the last 3 months and the app didn’t function correctly. So glad to have it back to its best. I’ve used this app for years. Never let me down.

Great app, but broken since iOS27 update

Great app, which I’ve used for years. However, since updating to iOS27 the app is broken, as you cannot edit the calendar. I assume that a fix is coming. Please fix!

ISO

Hi I have been using shifter worker for years. Great app, but since ios27 update the edit button no longer works and the share button no longer works. I have tried to reset the phone and app

Can’t edit anymore

After iOS 27 update edit button doesn’t work

Needs updating

Cant read notes if you type more than one line. You have to go into edit mode to see the full note you entered.

Doesn’t work as should

Payed the app hoping to be able to share my rota with my wife and vice versa but the function doesn’t work!

Brilliant Shift worker app at a glance…but

Please keep the app exactly as it is, but improve the notes. I’d love either a larger preview on the calendar screen or the ability to have expandable notes with unlimited text.
Maybe multiple note colored triangles in each corner would help too.

Limited capability

Terrible. The notes section drives me absolutely NUTS! Why can’t I see all of my notes! After the update it got even worse! Looking for a new shift worker app. I don’t recommend this app.

Shift Worker is a great app.

I work a rolling 4 week shift pattern with various shift start times and shift lengths. This app lets me easily input these shifts; see them at a glance; and allows me to use the ‘backup’ function to share the calendar with my significant other. So they can see what I’m working and it allows planning of childcare to easily be done.
