### 2/5 — This ain’t it

*2024-04-09*

When I started working with this app it seemed like it was a good app. I did 11 shifts. I got zero strikes no complaints no late shows or nothing.  I take a week off and come back to try and find shifts. Now all I get is one one shift what keeps popping up which is 50 miles away.  Now let me remind you that I stay in Atlanta. All they can come up is one shift, and this has been like this for a year. I have contacted them and they still haven’t given me more shifts to choose from. Don’t waste your time with Shifts by Snagajob . Check out Instawork first.

### 1/5 — Broken App in Dec 2023

*2023-12-05*

Ok so I read that this app is bad. But I downloaded it anyway. After opening it up I signed in with my Google account. That worked. Next, it ask me to hit “Apply to Shifts”, which is a button. Once I do the app closes. I’ve repeated this several time. Same result. Time to delete. I recommend looking elsewhere. If it’s June 2024 then give it a try n see if they fixed the issue. They may have abandoned this app.

### 4/5 — Update notifications sounds

*2023-10-06*

Please update notifications sounds so we can change them to hear them coming please on iPhones please.

### 4/5 — Good concept but limited choices

*2023-10-01*

While this is a good concept for additional income and or work experience.  It only offers restaurant work in one location which is not my wheelhouse so it’s not very beneficial for me however, with more professions and locations would create a phenomenal increase for shifts.

### 1/5 — **Updated** No Interview= No Shifts

*2023-07-29*

I’ve had the app for almost a month now, and haven’t been able to schedule the intro interview that is required to move forward with booking shifts. I get constant reminders that the interview needs to be scheduled, but each time there’s a message that says “no shifts available”. With other gig work apps I’ve been able to start booking shifts within 24 hours. I will update my review when an interview is finally able to be scheduled.

****I have officially deleted the app. Shortly after my review I conveniently got a message saying that interview slots had become available. I scheduled an interview, which was promptly cancels due to “not currently hiring in your area”. I’ve since been able to use 4 different apps successfully.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2023-06-28*

I just signed up and I can’t even get on because it saying that my cell phone number is not a cell phone number which is absolutely incorrect. I’ve had the same cell phone number for years and it’s never given me an issue until this app so I can’t even get through to see any kind of jobs because it’s saying that my phone number is not a cell phone number which it definitely is.

### 1/5 — Completely unusable!

*2023-05-22*

After I created my account I click on the “apply to shifts” button and it keeps redirecting me to a website with a blank white page.  Apps are not supposed to be redirecting you to a website (defeats the purpose of the app existing in the first place).  I tried it on multiple devices & networks, tried uninstall reinstall, and it wont work no matter what I do, and I’m very well advanced in technology.  I’m seeing a bunch of others who are saying the same thing or something similar as well… the app developers need to get this thing up and running already!!!

### 1/5 — Please help

*2023-05-22*

I’m confused as to why it won’t let me register when I have a whole snag a job account, Won’t let me register, keeps saying my number isn’t a real number when it is cause I’ve had this number since 2013 like it makes no sense … I have a whole snag a job account and it won’t even sign me in or anything it’s a lot that needed to be fix smh

### 1/5 — Lashika drinkard

*2022-12-08, version 1.3.4*

This app is so difficult it keeps taking me to the website and is glitching so much!! I cannot even find the direct deposit info and how is anyone supposed to look for and find work like this!! This needs to be fixed!!
