### 3/5 — Unavailablities Section Clumsy

*2025-12-01*

Good enough app however time off section is clumsy. I can set time off for a year in advance but can’t delete them all in one lot and have to individually go through and delete each one, which is incredibly time consuming and problematic when life changes. You also can’t edit them once set, must delete and fully redo. I have struggled with this issue multiple times now.

### 3/5 — Great app could be better with calendar crossing

*2025-08-14*

This is a brilliant app. It’s great for Work purposes however it would be even better if it would connect to my Google calendar so then I don’t have to jump out of ShiftCare and go over to my Google calendar and see what I’ve got going on that day before I apply for a shift and vice versa I’m constantly jumping in and out of both apps just to see what I’ve got going on and then I’ve gotta go back into it And what not but then honestly better as well as if the shifts that you applied for showed up on the job board as well so you can see if you’ve already got a shift on the day that you’re looking at other shifts would be great don’t know

### 3/5 — Cant delete unavailability

*2025-08-06, version 2.16.5*

ATM with this update our company has told us we can’t delete unavailability it’s really annoying

### 3/5 — Unavailability

*2025-08-01*

The new leave availability needs to be fixed. It is a major step backwards and takes much longer to fill out. Also if you put leave in and want to change availability it is not possible to do yourself. Very annoying update. All our staff members are very annoyed. Just change it back to how it was as app was really good before.

### 4/5 — Add unavailability

*2025-07-29, version 2.16.3*

I’m unable to add unavailable dates in the app anymore — I used to be able to do it easily before, so please make the necessary changes.

### 3/5 — Recent update of availability

*2025-07-29, version 2.16.3*

The recent update, needs to be fix. If u messed up fixing ur availability and u accidentally submit, u cant edit it out and fix it. 

You have to ask help from the one fixing the roster.  How bothersome. 

Last time it was easy as 10secs. Availability fix. No dramas.

Hopefully they’ll revert it back. I like thats they put it on the side tab and there reoccurring option. But you cant edit it out is a thing.

### 5/5 — Feedback

*2025-07-07*

Love it! So user friendly and smooth to use. Love the detail, information, nothing is left to guess work. I do sometimes have trouble uploading/saving my mileage. Comes up with error.

### 5/5 — Support worker

*2025-05-08, version 2.15.7*

Doing exelent work…

### 5/5 — Exceptional interface and functions

*2025-05-03*

The app is convenient and easy to access. However, the service provider needs to adjust some care categories that are more relevant and practical to th client. For example, if that client dont take medication regularly, there should be something else for this client. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Support

*2025-04-18*

I find the program so easy to use and navigate and over the last 15 years I have had to deal with some really challenging programs. It’s so nice to have one that works consistently and you don’t require a computer degree to use it.

### 5/5 — shift care

*2025-04-16, version 2.15.5*

it’s very good, easy and comfortable

### 5/5 — Nice helping

*2025-03-12, version 2.15.1*

Helping people is Amazing with good and grateful people to take care of management is good and cleaning is nice to Amen

### 5/5 — Really good app, minor improvements needed

*2025-02-11*

App is easy to use and has lots of good features already. Small things that would be helpful if added would be when a shift is allocated it advises somewhere who allocated it, makes it easier to communicate with the right person. 

Additionally a tick or writing on the week view against the shift advising/resembling its been reviewed & approved or reviewed & needs additional info i.e. receipt. This would assist with following up with management if shift time hasn’t been altered to suit notes. Perfect app however these additions would be super helpful!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2024-12-06, version 2.14.6*

By far the best app I’ve ever used so easy and straightforward.

### 5/5 — Andrew Macokatic

*2024-11-24, version 2.14.5*

Thanks to ShiftCares I now keep a hard-copy of my shifts!

### 1/5 — Not happy at all 😡

*2025-07-24*

Tried several times to download on my apple phone. It’s not excepting my email and password. I downloaded and uninstalled several times to sign in and still not working.

### 1/5 — Not pleased

*2024-11-25*

I cannot even log into the app. I tried to reset my password and it won’t accept my email address. Not using this app for my business. No way to even contact support through the app. 😡

### 1/5 — Progress notes

*2024-08-31, version 2.13.4*

I wish you could save as you go in progress notes.

### 1/5 — Why not make for Ipad

*2023-07-08, version 2.10.18*

Why have you only made this app compatible with iPhone only. Please make it compatible for iPad as well please

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2025-11-12*

I'd like more options to change shift notifications. I get no notification when my shift has changed and only 15 minutes before my shift starts. Way too late to do anything if I've overlooked a shift.
The mileage displays in a way that is not easy to read. It doesn't automatically add the total for me.

### 2/5 — It’s handy, but need more improvement

*2024-01-16*

When notification of new shift comes up, I can not see any updates in notification field which poped up just second through shiftcare app.

To check new notifications, I have to remove all previous app pages I opened just before then open the shiftcare app again. It’s really annoying. New shift  notification sometimes pops up more than 5-10 times in a sec. After checking  first notification then I have to delete old opened pages then open the new pages to check the newest notification. Because of this, I lost a chance to take enough shift. Other guys took all ahead of me. Please fix this issues ASAP

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your review and feedback. Please contact our customer support team on support@shiftcare.com, they are always happy to help!

### 2/5 — Needs improvement - won’t save the totals of my expenses

*2023-09-27, version 2.10.28*

the totals of my expenses aren’t saving which is really stuffing me up. pls fix it as i use it for work and it’s affecting my pay.

### 2/5 — Couple of changes would make it five star

*2021-12-26*

Issues looking at past dates to see hours worked/approved, and when I go forward to upcoming dates, I have to close the whole app to get it back to current date. 

Also, if there was a way to sync work dates to google calendar this would go a long way to assisting in family planning for future events.
Otherwise, this is a clean and simple interface.

### 3/5 — good but can be better

*2026-03-20, version 3.2.6*

The app is generally good and easy to use, but i don't understand why i have to create a new email in the case where i am working with multiple companies.

### 3/5 — ShiftCare

*2026-02-20*

I find ShiftCare is ok, The new updates has made things easier and a bit better but one downfall I have found is that when you log the travel Klms you can’t put a decimal point. For example a participant is 900 metres from the office or say 1.6 away we either have to round up or down because we can’t put the exact Klms travelled. In this case the participant will either get under charged or over charged because the app only accepts round numbers.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Helpful for work

*2026-05-27, version 3.4.9*

Very easy to use

### 5/5 — Signing out

*2026-04-03*

It would be useful if we could sign out before uploading notes. This is because there are times that there is no time for notes when we finish.

### 5/5 — Calendar Integration

*2026-03-24*

One thing that could be improved is the calendar integration. Currently, when shifts are changed, updates don’t always sync in real time with Google Calendar, which can be a bit confusing.

It would also be great if there was an option to directly connect and sync with Apple Calendar, as many users rely on it for daily scheduling.

Other than that, the app works well and is very useful for support workers!

### 5/5 — Great App for Care Workers

*2026-03-08*

ShiftCare is a very useful app for managing shifts and client notes. It helps support workers keep everything organized and makes reporting very easy. The app is simple to use and saves a lot of time.

### 5/5 — Nurse

*2025-12-31, version 3.0.6*

Love ShiftCare so easy to use.

### 5/5 — Best system

*2025-12-15*

Easy to use and great customer service any questions and queries I have have been answered. They also give you training and the system is so easy to use  Shift Care customer service set up your system on your computer and also provide you with an app for your employees to  clock in and clock out Very easy to use.  Best system I have ever used throughout my career in Ndis thank you Shift Care.

### 5/5 — Calendar Integration

*2025-11-03, version 2.17.9*

Really good app! But I think it’d be perfect if there’s any way we can integrate to Apple calendar or google calendar. Thank you

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2025-10-01, version 2.17.6*

Love this app! Quick and easy to use. Find jobs and schedule them really quick!

### 5/5 — Best Home Care Software

*2025-08-22*

Shift care makes my life so much easier as an agency director. Whether it’s scheduling or communicating directly to the caregiver through the app or looking up schedules on my iPhone and approving shifts through the job board on the weekends, it makes my life easier! Get it!

### 5/5 — Very well designed app

*2025-08-08, version 2.16.6*

Excellent all
