### 4/5 — Awesome but app is outdated

*2023-02-23, version 1.7.7*

I’ve been on the platform since it opened and it has always been great. It’s currently my sole income paying all my bills.  Only complaint is the app hasn’t been updated in 2 years and I have trouble with it being glitchy sometimes. I can’t clock in on the app either

### 3/5 — Not in Houston

*2022-03-10, version 1.7.7*

Hasn’t launched in Houston yet. (As of March 2022.) Tired of downloading these apps, signing up, and giving them all of my personal information (plus allowing permissions), before finding out they do not even operate in my area. I get these platforms are growing, but it would be good to know before workers invest their time into something that will not benefit the employers or employees, so they can focus on finding actual work. That being said, I hope they expand in more areas soon.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2021-09-14, version 1.7.7*

My company loves using this program! They have some of the best costumer service that I have ever seen and we’ve met a lot of awesome hard workers!!

### 3/5 — A great place to work

*2021-09-10, version 1.7.7*

I been working with Snapshyft off and on since 2019. (Off was when covid hit). I left my job with the railroad to come back after covid because I could be home &work.  We get paid after each shift we work, we get to make our own schedule.. the pay is great, I usually work doubles on the weekends.. the list goes on and on. Anytime I’m in a store, drive Thru, gas station, tanning salon etc, I always take a few minutes and tell people about us as a company, so that anyone who needs extra income can sign up. You can work part time, full time, one shift a week or just a shift to pay a bill. It’s all up to us what we want to work. SNAPSHYFT is great. I especially love support. They work with us, support us if we have issues arising, and shoot us a text before our shifts with the address to where we are going (like our personal secretary 😉). This place is great! I will always stand behind this company.

### 5/5 — Beneficial Resource

*2021-08-22, version 1.7.7*

SnapShyft is an excellent resource for anyone seeking employment in the hospitality industry.  Simple to use, superior assistance, creditable employers and competitive compensation.  Customizable to meet individual needs!

### 5/5 — We love SNAPSHYFT

*2021-08-19, version 1.7.7*

I am the Operations Manager at a large banquet facility in Indianapolis and I can say enough good things about SNAPSHYFT. Their customer service is second to none. They always respond in less than a minute and work hard to get all your shifts filled. Their workers are always hard working and have been far and away better than other staffing agency we have used. Thank you SNAPSHYFT!

### 5/5 — One of the BEST work experiences I’ve had!

*2021-08-07, version 1.7.7*

I’ve been working on the SNAPSHYFT platform since I moved to Indianapolis in 2017. The  work opportunities have ALWAYS been sufficient for my needs. But, more importantly for me, is the AWESOME communication of SNAPSHYFT staff. I ALWAYS get real time answers! I highly recommend joining the SNAPSHYFT family.

### 2/5 — Wonderful Start but ended off Horribly

*2021-08-06, version 1.7.7*

Have been doing work on and off for Snapshyft since the beginning when they first came out, 3 years of labor. I dropped a shift due to Car Issues and I had no transportation. I reached out to customer service multiple times and they've never once answered the phone. They're so quick to text me though. After them failing to reach out to me over the phone they disabled my account and took me off 4 shifts I had scheduled within the next 2 weeks. Wonderful events and Venues with good pay but beware of unprofessionalism and short notice on anything to do with the HR/Customer Service side of things.

### 5/5 — The Future

*2021-06-21, version 1.7.7*

Refer to title. Great Service all around.

### 5/5 — SNAPSHYFT

*2021-06-08, version 1.7.7*

Love the app and the locations of jobs just need more jobs there all filled up to the end of the month

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-04-15, version 1.7.7*

SNAPSHYFT is so awesome! You get paid 2 hours afterwards and work in different places and get to do fun things and meet cool new people or stay to yourself where both are appropriate and time goes by every time.

### 5/5 — SNAPSHYFT ROCKS!

*2019-12-10, version 1.6.8*

I’ve just finished my fourth shift for SnapShyft. The money is awesome, it’s easy to use, & it’s extremely convenient as a side hustle ORRR a full time job. If you’re in the hospitality business, I highly recommend this app! Thanks

### 5/5 — Snapshyft

*2019-12-06, version 1.6.8*

The app is awesome after you learn to utility it! The shift pays very well and I had a blast working my fist shift, can’t wait for my next

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Good idea in theory

*2023-05-14*

It would be great if it worked. I added the app to supplement my income when my work is slow. There are only a very few server shifts, it mostly seems to be for dishwashers. I have been able to pick up one of the very few server shifts. That’s ok except I have been kicked off the app (no big loss as it wasn’t doing much for me anyway) for not picking up shifts. I would have kept checking for something that worked for me but was kicked off. 
Hopefully this works eventually as it is a great idea. However it won’t work well if you don’t let people use it.

### 1/5 — Error message

*2022-07-04, version 1.7.7*

Not allowing me to finish my new account. Keep sending error message. I deleted and downloaded the app 4 times. No improvement.

### 1/5 — …

*2022-05-24, version 1.7.7*

Copy that. It is clear SnapShyft is not a good fit for you at this time. We wish you well. --SnapShyft Support

### 1/5 — Terrible Design

*2021-10-31, version 1.7.7*

So trying to sign up with them and you can’t leave their screen to go copy/paste like your EIN number. Have 2 pieces of info I need so can’t even copy/paste it in. Literally I need to write it down on paper to sign up on my phone.

### 1/5 — How?

*2021-10-22, version 1.7.7*

I’ve been trying to onboard since 2019. I was asked to do the background check twice. I waited well beyond 2weeks to hear from someone. Not once was I ever able to see any shifts. Waste of time!

### 1/5 — Just horrible

*2020-02-29, version 1.7.3*

What a joke 
Get an app that actually runs 
How are you going to send alerts to my phone but not have an app capable of loading or logging anyone it

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2020-02-17, version 1.7.2*

I was able to sign up for three shifts right when this app hit the Chicago market. I got five stars for the job well done instant pay was great and then it all stopped no shifts and this is a year later I see that their shifts posted on there but I never see any available they’re always all taken. Thank goodness there are other apps out there if you’re in the Chicago market definitely check out the other apps not this one.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2019-07-01, version 1.6.7*

App always crashes. Never able to pick up shifts

### 1/5 — A 1 star is generous for this app.

*2019-06-14, version 1.6.6*

Why do I say a 1 star is generous for this app, well my account has been pending since January.  I am an employer looking to bring in quality people.  This app claims to top temp agencies but it doesn’t.  I’ve hired multiple people from temp agency in the same time my account hasn’t even been approved in this app.  If you’re a business owner, don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-11-03, version 1.4.9*

I applied and filled out everything literally about two months ago going on three now and the app keeps saying I will be getting an email from the background check company since the first time I downloaded the app and applied. I’ve texted through the app countless amount of times with no response to any of my text whatsoever. I’m starting to think the app is either fake and falsely obtained the inquiring users information for a reason I don’t know because I can’t not get ahold of anyone pertaining to this “company”. Shiftgig isn’t even this unorganized and it’s the same exact concept. What a waste of almost 3 months.
