### 4/5 — Could be better

*2023-03-03, version 3.1.1*

Missing widget and I wish there is more colors, other than that I don’t have any complaints.

### 4/5 — Good but could use more options

*2022-11-04, version 3.1.1*

Wish there was an option to add a symbol for pay day. Otherwise I really like the icons.

### 4/5 — Roster template

*2021-02-20, version 2.9.1*

This has one of the easiest roster setup functions 
Roster cycles easy to setup
Fast update
Less crashes
Some features should be removed 
Animation of header and summary of work days 
One feature should be enhanced is current day highlight, cover the whole square not just the title area

### 3/5 — Issues with the app once I bought an upgrade

*2016-08-25, version 2.2*

The basic app is the easiest to use of any I downloaded.  I really liked how the information was presented. Unfortunately when I purchased one of the upgrades the app freezes and shuts down a split second later.  My advice is to just use the basic app until the issue gets fixed.

Update.  Tech support has been very good and hopefully they get the issue fixed shorty.

### 3/5 — Nice but issue after update

*2016-03-04, version 2.1.3*

I like this app but I just updated it and any scheduled appts in my iPhone calendar comes up a day later on this calendar (e.g. Appt on Mar 8 in calendar app shows up in this app as Mar 9). Same with all the STAT holidays. If this gets fixed that would be great as right now I'm using both apps to keep my life straight.

### 3/5 — Nice

*2016-02-25, version 2.1.3*

It would be nicer if the monthly calender is bigger.

### 2/5 — アプデしたら

*2016-01-25*

アプデしたらとても見づらくなりました。改善して欲しいです。

### 3/5 — Not sure

*2014-10-25, version 1.3.1*

Looks like a good app but what is the point of a free version or trial if you cannot try the features to see if they work before you buy.

### 5/5 — Looks great!

*2013-04-22, version 1.0.1*

Love the look! Nice layout, color choices, very customizable . Easy to program in shift rotations. One of my favorite apps.

### 1/5 — Confusing I gave up

*2022-11-26, version 3.1.1*

Couldn’t even input shift times as it only offered 3 numerals to pick from. All the others were greyed out. The entire app setup was confusing and just didn’t make sense.

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2021-10-23, version 3.0*

App doesn’t give enough proper instructions to be able to use app. Tried to contact developers with no success.

### 1/5 — No directions

*2021-07-29, version 3.0*

Can’t figure out how to use

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2017-02-03, version 2.4.1*

Maybe it's a bug, but I can't even enter in shifts. Tap on date, can only enter notes. Total waste of time

### 1/5 — Waste

*2015-01-22, version 1.3.1*

Don't bother to download won't let u try anything wants u to buy app

### 1/5 — 無法使用

*2014-10-15, version 1.3*

更新到 iOS 8.02後就無法使用用了 只能打開 不能做變更，請想辦法解決

### 1/5 — 更新後無法編輯

*2014-10-13, version 1.3*

我是用ios7.1.2 更新後list內無法做編輯

### 1/5 — うっとおしい

*2013-10-20*

先日から不要なガイドが出っぱなしでカレンダー表示が出来ません。アドオン復元してもだめ。インストールし直してもだめ。
おかげでデータは全部入力し直しです。
どういうことですか。

### 1/5 — 使い方が簡素すぎて、分かりづらい

*2013-04-13*

シフトやリピートを設定、カレンダーの共通設定(アイコンやカレンダーバーのカラー)をしたが、シフトやリピートで作った設定を、iPhone スクリーンショットにあるようなカレンダー01へ、アイコンを反映させることができない。インフォメーションの使い方が簡単に書かれているだけで、感覚で何と無く推測もできず、いろいろ自分でやってみないと理解が難しい。初めて操作する人の目線でチュートリアルがないので、手探り状態になる。デザインは他の勤務カレンダーと違って、事務っぽい感じもなく使ってみたくなる入口だが、登録さえままならないことが難点。現時点では、要改善なアプリだと思います。

### 1/5 — Critique

*2013-04-12, version 1.0*

Very complicated to set up shift times and impossible to update the calendar using the instructions. Poor

### 5/5 — 最高！助かってます！！！

*2024-06-20*

仕事柄、140個ほどのシフトがあり、 最初のシフト周りを作るのは苦労しましたが、 それ以降は使い方を工夫すれば最高です。 普段使いとして使っています。 無くなってしまったら本当に困るので、 引き続き宜しくお願いします！！！

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-03-20, version 3.1.2*

Great app for people that work shift. Only wish is that I could link it to the wife’s iphone so she could see what days I work. You pay for this feature.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-12-17, version 3.0*

Great app for people that work shift. Only wish is that I could link it to the wife’s android phone so she could see what days I work

### 5/5 — 4勤務2休暇の様なシフト勤務に

*2021-08-26*

4勤務2休暇の様なシフト勤務に便利で見易い
しいて言うなら、カレンダーこれ一つでokとならないのが欠点かな。でもプライベートなスケジュールは別のアプリを使いたいので特に不満はないです。

### 5/5 — Perfect for rotating shift workers!

*2020-10-20, version 2.9*

I work a refinery schedule and this app allows me to make changes as they happen. 

You can set-up icons that fit your need and makes it sense. I send snap shots to my family so they can track my schedule. I love it!!!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-09-21*

I love that this app sync’s with your everyday calendar. I would recommend.

### 5/5 — よかった

*2019-04-17*

交替勤務に入ったんでシフト知りたくて…
リピート機能があるのでそれ打つの楽でほんとよかったです！
これからも応援してます！

### 5/5 — Seamless

*2016-09-08, version 2.2.1*

Works beautifully. We just changed from a 4 on, 4 off  schedule to a 5/4 schedule and I was able to input the times seamlessly in the app. Learns the schedule and therefore I don't have to keep inputting every month. Also, can send screenshot to people to organize future plans.

### 5/5 — Set per date is nonoperational

*2014-10-13, version 1.3*

After updates ser per date is not working properly. Hope it'd be fixed soon

### 5/5 — Shift work

*2013-08-14, version 1.1*

My first time doing shift work and since I will be doing so many types of shifts, I had to find an easy way keep track and I love this app because it has solved my problem! Highly recommend it.. Don't be discouraged it takes a while to figure out how to work with it.
