### 1/5 — New update is terrible

*2026-09-01, version 6.1.6*

My kids and I cannot work out how to approve jobs other than on the other. Roll the update back, or give our subscription money back.

### 1/5 — New Update is Terrible

*2026-09-01, version 6.1.6*

I loved Spriggy, before the update. The new version is hard to use, jobs are no longer paid straight away and when I do try to pay them out it’s putting in jobs for payment that I haven’t approved. Please go back to the old version… it didn’t need improving.

### 1/5 — What has happened!

*2026-08-31, version 6.1.3*

Always been a great app, now the kids and us can’t make heads or tails with the new update. Nothing works or matches, our family routines have ground to a halt, kinda gobsmacked.

### 1/5 — Can’t pay out chores on payday

*2026-08-31, version 6.1.3*

First of all the update sucks and then I have approved all the jobs. Have way more than required in the parent wallet but it’s failing to actually pay them. I have updated my phone, the app, deleted the app and all the tips they advise I then I messaged support with no reply. The app was great and worked great now I can’t pay them for their chores.

### 1/5 — Last update

*2026-08-31, version 6.0.0*

The recent update is absolutely terrible and confusing!! Bring back the old version !! Why can’t I pay out individual jobs in the moment. Why do my kids need to mark a job done? In progress? Wow, This update is just painful

### 1/5 — Update is dreadful

*2026-08-30, version 6.0.0*

The worst update ever! Please change it back to the previous format. The jobs my kids mark as completed are not showing on my app. I cannot go back over previous weeks to see what jobs I’ve missed to approve. The navigation is terrible. Not an easy app to use anymore.

### 1/5 — Roll back your app update

*2026-08-29, version 6.0.0*

I have been using Spriggy for years with my kids this new app update is awful, trying to even find jobs to approve is difficult you can’t approve jobs as you go have to wait to the next week begins, takes the quick incentive out of a one off job. Last week brings up this week. Even my kids hate the new app say it’s not as easy to find jobs and mark them off. I’ll be using up what is in there funds wise and then am
Done unless this is fixed ASAP

### 4/5 — Recent update

*2026-08-29, version 6.0.0*

Good app. But what happened to the job approval process? Yes approving multiple jobs is useful, but this new layout is super hard to navigate

### 1/5 — New version

*2026-08-29, version 6.0.0*

The new version is terrible, go back to the old version where you can see what jobs have been completed in a logical way. Both my kid are frustrated with the new version, might as well go open an account with a bank, their app is far superior over the new version.

### 1/5 — Jobs UX is dire

*2026-08-28, version 6.0.0*

What on earth have you done, Spriggy? The app has never been faultless, but changing the jobs UX from two clicks to what feels like 200? Why? Why am I still paying for this ‘service’? As soon as this subscription period is over, I’m out.
