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. ### 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 — Can’t log in *2022-08-29, version 1.3.4* It won’t let me log in. It keeps transferring me to a Snapchat website and not loading. Can’t even use the app. So annoying. ### 1/5 — This app is trash *2022-08-20, version 1.3.4* I signed in and it kept taking me to a blank website it would not let me make an account ### 1/5 — Maybe it’s fixed *2022-08-12, version 1.3.4* I read through at least 50 reviews (most were not favorable) but I was like-wow-with this many bad reviews-surely they’ve fixed this sign in/create account problem by now but NOPE! Downloaded the app and wasn’t even able to create an account as it asked for my email-then asked me for a password-I put in the password I wanted to use and it says ‘invalid password’-but how if I haven’t even created an account yet? Maybe (just maybe) this works if you try to create an account with your apple or google account however if you try to register with your email-well-it didn’t work for me (and apparently many others)-so good luck getting it to work for you! I’ll say it again-with this many bad reviews about this sign up/create account process-you would think they would have fixed this issue by now-jeez! ### 1/5 — Sketchy *2022-08-09, version 1.3.4* When you log into this app, it just opens up the Snagajob website, I couldn’t get anything to work in app. To make matters worse about 50% of the time it opens a random sketchy website rather than the snag website. ### 1/5 — What’s the app for? *2022-06-07, version 1.3.3* Can’t even do anything on it keeps opening up my internet browser and asking me to log in … why even make an app and put it out if it doesn’t even work? ### 1/5 — Constantly opens up browser windows to ad websites *2022-05-15, version 1.3.1* I can’t even create an account. When I click on ANY button during signup, it leaves the app and opens up a browser window that my hold network blocks because it’s an ad-serving domain. ### 2/5 — The app didn’t work *2022-05-05, version 1.3.1* I wasn’t able to get the app to work. It first opened a Snapchat window in my safari then it never went beyond that. The app kept glitching. ### 3/5 — Problems that haven’t been fixed *2022-05-04, version 1.3.1* Ok there’s two problems that hasn’t been fixed like going on the app to look for shifts than be transferred to the website and having to go back to the app than transferred again than going back I’m not logged in on the website. Theres no reason it should be doing this the whole purpose of the app is to not have to go on the website. And sometimes I randomly get logged out it’s so annoying. ### 1/5 — FAKE APP DONT DOWNLOAD *2022-04-30, version 1.3.1* This app has lots of fake reviews and doesn’t work at all , everytime there’s a log in it redirects you to a website that doesn’t load ### 1/5 — The app doesn’t work for me *2022-04-30, version 1.3.1* Whenever I download the app and try to launch it the loading screen freezes ### 1/5 — Not loading *2022-04-30, version 1.3.1* I’ve signed up.. it keeps having me log in, over and over again. then doesn’t load to anything, just a blank page. Pretty aggravating… ### 1/5 — What’s the point in having it if I cannot log in? *2022-04-26, version 1.3.1* Been trying to login for months and I only see the very first screen of the woman with a black cap and shirt. It will not load any further than that. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and nothing works. ### 1/5 — Is This App a Virus? *2022-04-01, version 1.3.0* This app has not been working. It’s going through this weird cycle where it’s asking me to sign in, then I get a pop up but that one is actually asking me to create a new account. If I exit the pop up I can sign in and click on “Apply to shifts” but that just opens up my browser and sends me to websites with “doubleclick” and “snapchat” in the URLs, but nothing actually loads. So I was never able to get it to work, but this app is acting really weird so I’m going to delete it. ### 1/5 — App crashes every single time *2022-03-26, version 1.3.0* App will not open after I accept allow notifications. ### 1/5 — Need to fix the app *2022-03-26, version 1.3.0* I would love to give this some stars because a long time ago I used this app and got a few jobs from them, but the new app will keep crashing while I’m putting in job experiences having me constantly starting over then sometimes the app doesn’t even load up only way I even got in the app was through email this app needs a major update. It has great potential ### 1/5 — Meh *2022-03-03, version 1.3.0* I have never been able to get the app to work no matter which device I use. You have to look for shifts using the browser which is very inconvenient. Highly recommend Instawork, Shiftsmart, and Qwick for people looking for flexible shifts that pay well! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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. ### 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 — No Interview= No Shifts *2023-07-15* 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. ### 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!! ### 1/5 — Waste of Time *2022-10-25, version 1.3.4* Lies and a complete waste of time. Just another new staffing agency with no work. They make it seem like they have plenty of jobs and they have NONE. ### 1/5 — Annoying *2022-09-09, version 1.3.4* I am trying to make an account through the app but it does not let me. Really inconvenient. Please fix the app. ### 1/5 — Just HORRIBLE *2022-09-08, version 1.3.4* Too many bugs that aren’t getting fixed. Haven’t been on this app in a long time specifically because of these issues. I can’t properly get through the login page without an error being attached all of a sudden trying to pick up shifts. Horrible service deleting my account a waste of time. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Smooth App! *2022-03-23, version 1.3.0* I absolutely love this application, and I can choose my own hours while still getting a w2 at the end of the year!! Taxes are taken out of your check every week… so much better then contracting gigs! ### 5/5 — Thumbs up *2021-12-30, version 1.3.0* I just feel like you shouldn’t have to wait on a thumbs up to schedule more days because just getting started that slows you down especially if the manager on duty doesn’t knows anything about it. My first 3 shifts went great but managers never thumbs up so the place doesn’t shows back up smh it feels like a dead end ### 5/5 — Bug on app *2021-09-01, version 1.2.7* I can’t login even if I created an account keeps saying I can’t log in ### 5/5 — Easy Money teamwork *2021-08-15, version 1.2.7* Great job ! Work when you can!!! ### 5/5 — I love it *2021-06-14, version 1.2.5* I really enjoy Snag. Obviously it’s flexible because you can work whenever you want and there’s no commitment to one job! ### 5/5 — Super easy to make a quick buck *2021-02-12, version 1.2.4* Puts you in charge of your type of work and schedule. Love it! ### 5/5 — Great App *2021-02-12, version 1.2.4* Downloaded the app and went to work the same week. Lots of flexible jobs available. ### 5/5 — Thanks you shifts *2020-11-19, version 1.2.3* I started working with snag a shift at the end of July2020. It helped me gain the skills and experience that I needed and now I have a full time job.(October 2020) ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2020-06-14, version 1.2.2* I’m absolutely loving this app. I can pick my own shifts and get paid weekly. I’ve already worked my first couple days and it was AMAZING! The managers are amazing the coworkers are amazing. I’m in love with this app. The only down side is that not that many employers know 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. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
