Experience

I know it has its problems but once you get a few days into substitute teaching the offers become more constant
But the app does have a funny thing where you have to reset your filters for requests to pop up a lot of the times for some reason reloading the page or reopening the app does nothing

Flexible and Great Pay

Honestly I have had a great time working for this company. It gives me the flexibility that I need as a first time mom. I used to work for Swing back in 2023 and now I returned in 2026 and overall I am still enjoying the assignments. All other jobs I’ve had do not compare to this one!

Frustrated Educator!

I actually use to be a teacher but left for a different space of work. Came to sub over a year or close to two years. I have had significant requests and positive reviews of administrators asking me to come back. I had a ONE TIME last minute cancellation for emergency and now that situation outweighs all the positive work I have done. Mind you I been on the app for almost two years. I don’t think a one time last minute cancellation should define me on the app. God forbid you are human and an emergency situation comes up. The sick time also really sucks making it nearly impossible if you ever decided to do long term subbing. Feels like they just treat you as disposable. Also, does the schools have any accountability? I walk into assignments that have no guidance, major behavioral challenges with students and you don’t get recognized for all that you endure, but a school can leave a review that can be untrue and it sticks with you forever.

Horrible

This app screws you out of getting work. You get a notification and the app takes 5 minutes to load, by the time it’s open the offer is gone. But for some reason if there’s no offer it takes 30 seconds to open. It’s like they’re actively trying to block you from working.

Getting better

Starting 2026 the pay I received is higher and if you were even mildly consistent as a substitute you get offered the higher wage opportunities for being a swing hero last year 2025 the pay was so variable that it made budgeting very difficult
This year things are looking up for the app
