### 5/5 — New update

*2026-08-17*

The new update is so much better. I’m able to access all 4 business from the same app
easily instead of having
To sign in on safari

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for sharing your experience! We're glad to be part of your journey. Let us know if there's ever anything else we can support you with.

### 1/5 — Utility vastly diminished

*2026-07-30*

The updated app no longer conveniently shows top 5 item sales on the main page, no longer has a scrolling calendar for dates across months, and is overall poorly organized.  It was so well designed before: intuitive and streamlined. Now it’s clunky, counter intuitive, and literally does less. Why? My guess is to funnel people i to their awful ai summaries.

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re sorry to hear the updated app feels less intuitive and less useful than before. The sales report in the Square POS app still supports top-selling items and custom date ranges, and more detailed item reporting is available in Square Dashboard. That said, if these features are now harder to find or less convenient to use, we understand why that feels like a step backward. We’ve shared your feedback about the missing top 5 item view, the date navigation experience, and the overall organization of the app with our team. We really appreciate you calling out exactly what changed for you.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-17*

This app is great to view your reports instantly no doubt, but can you pls add a clickable button to see what refunds were processed because I get anxious about it because it’s money. Other than that, would recommended this app

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback — we’re glad the app helps you view reports quickly. We understand why having a clearer, faster way to check processed refunds would give you more peace of mind. Square already lets sellers view transactions and refund related details from the app and Square Dashboard, and reporting includes refund count and refund amount metrics. That said, we agree that a dedicated, clickable way to jump straight to processed refunds from reports would make this easier and more reassuring. We’ve shared your feedback with the team for consideration.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-07-11, version 7.15*

Love this app. Easy to use

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-07-06*

Big fan of this platform. Couldn’t recommend it enough:)

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for sharing your experience! We're glad to be part of your journey. Let us know if there's ever anything else we can support you with.

### 5/5 — Owner

*2026-07-04*

This is our first POS, so far we have really enjoyed it.

**Developer response:** This is great to hear!! Thank you for the review.

### 2/5 — More details

*2026-07-04, version 7.13*

I would like to see sales by hour not on a graph.

### 5/5 — Extremely helpful

*2026-06-06*

Would have preferred these features were included in the square app, but if you get over that this is very helpful

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you've found the features helpful overall.

We also appreciate your perspective on having more functionality available directly within the Square app. We understand how convenient it can be to manage your business from a single mobile experience, and feedback like yours helps us better understand which tools sellers would like to access on the go. We'll be sure to share your comments with the appropriate teams as we continue improving our products.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for choosing Square!

### 5/5 — Misleading data

*2026-06-03*

Be careful with the reporting. Net sales on the app seems to be different to the desktop version. Potentially including service charge which is incredibly misleading when looking for snapshots of information and comparing data

**Developer response:** We would love to look at the exact numbers you're seeing to help you reconcile what may be going on. It's possible you have different filters or dates on these that is causing the mismatch. Please reach out to us on support. We are also on social media, or Reddit, if you prefer those channels!
