### 2/5 — Bugs

*2024-06-07, version 3.303*

The app has been buggy recently. All posted shifts are automatically marked as given up, and there is no longer an option to confirm a shift. Also the messages board won’t load if you read a message and then try to go back to the main message screen.

### 2/5 — It’s an okay app, has issues

*2023-12-19, version 3.303*

My work made us switch to this app to start asking off, for seeing our schedule, etc etc. At first I didn’t have any issues with it but over time every time I need to ask off it wants to be glitchy and not working. It will either kick me off or mark it as todays date and I can’t change it. It annoys me because we have to have our ask offs in by a certain point and day. It’s just frustrating because I’ve tried to redownload the app, log out and log back in everything. It still seems to not work right!

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-01-03, version 3.303*

The app doesn’t let you log in anymore. It’ll say you have the wrong credentials even though it’ll worm on the website.

### 1/5 — Update/Fix NEEEDE

*2020-12-26, version 3.303*

A co-worker recommended i use this app to figure out who works my shifts.(he uses iphone 6/7) My credentials works fine on the website, the app says they are invaled or expired.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2020-12-21, version 3.303*

I used to work for Home Depot and they had a great app for logging on and checking your schedule.  I now work for sprouts farmers market and have tried logging in multiple times making sure I correctly input my information and won’t even let me log in let alone use the app!!!!

### 2/5 — It worked fine at first

*2020-12-10, version 3.303*

I am about 2 1/2 months into using the time forge app. In the beginning it worked fine but now it says my credentials are invalid or expired. That’s not correct considering I can still use those very same credentials to login online. It’s really annoying because you can’t see your attendance when you go in online.Can someone fix this?

### 1/5 — Logging me out

*2020-11-13, version 3.275*

It won’t keep me logged in anymore, it’s very irritating to have to constantly keep having to log back in

### 1/5 — Worked fine until recent phone update

*2020-11-04, version 3.275*

Most features on this app worked until my phone updated. This app needs to be updated so it will work again. Now all I can do is look at my schedule, which is unfortunate because my job makes us request time off through this app. So now I can’t request the day off that I need because this app won’t work. Whoever makes this, please fix this. Pretty much nothing works on this app since the update.

### 2/5 — iPhone X: Time Off Requests

*2020-10-22, version 3.275*

I’ve lost the ability to make time off requests after the new software update.  Now the app is only good for checking the schedule.  That’s about it.

### 2/5 — Not Working on iPhone X

*2020-09-21, version 3.275*

The app opens and i can see my schedule only, all other features of the app are inaccessible. The Menu button on the left and calendar on the top right are so high up on my screen my phone doesn’t register that I’m actually tapping on the menu or calendar button instead I get my phones swipe down menu (like the time and notifications) Please update the app to be compatible with all devices properly. If you have the same issue and work at Sprouts download the OKTA Mobile app and it actually has the vine, workday, my hr and others we use. The downfall to that app (that I’ve noticed so far) is you can only see your department’s schedule, not the whole store.

### 1/5 — Expired credentials on login

*2020-07-29, version 3.275*

I want to be able to use this app, I really do. It appear like a very handy thing to use on a daily basis especially since I am working two jobs at the moment. Unfortunately whenever I log in it tells me "expired credentials, please log in" and never gets past that screen. If this bug could be fixed any time soon then I will re-review it when I can finally access the darn thing.

### 1/5 — Won’t allow me to log in

*2020-04-18, version 3.275*

App won’t even allow me to log in on my iPhone XS, it says my credentials are invalid or expired, but I know they aren’t.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-04-12, version 3.275*

I had no troubles signing in up until recently. This app was poorly made, and the developers should re-think as to how to go about this app.

### 1/5 — Can’t sign in.

*2020-04-06, version 3.262*

Downloaded the app expecting it to be convenient for work, but it doesn’t even take my login info even though the same info works for everything else. Trash app.

### 1/5 — Unable to log in with iphone xs

*2020-03-24, version 3.262*

it says i have invalid credentials when i try to log in, but when i go on the website i have no trouble logging in. please fix this soon because it makes looking at my schedule easier~

### 1/5 — Notifications!

*2020-02-28, version 3.262*

I don’t understand why notifications are not present with this app. I get messages from my manager about my upcoming shifts. 
So if I don’t physically look at the app, I would have no clue! 
I don’t know, the whole app just seems like it was rushed IMO. 
Unfortunately, there’s not another app I can use, to get my schedule and all. But seriously, notifications SHOULD have been taught of.

### 1/5 — Same prob as everyone else

*2020-02-26, version 3.262*

I just started at Sprouts. I had no trouble creating an account and accessing my schedule on the website. But on the app it says credentials are not valid.
Hope they fix it soon.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — This app sucks!

*2026-03-10, version 3.303*

Very buggy and logs out too often. Needs a design overhaul and bug fixing that’s 5 years overdue.

### 1/5 — Not Happy

*2024-10-31, version 3.303*

Not at all OK with this one. Has Logging issues, at the start like is, discouraging and does not give you your payroll or other info apart from scheduling. How is it employees friendly?

### 1/5 — Needs fixed

*2024-10-27, version 3.303*

You can’t see other employees schedules, I’m not getting notifications that my schedule is put in. This need fixed. I really don’t like this app but it’s useful when it works

### 1/5 — won’t let log in

*2024-01-21, version 3.303*

everytime i try to log in and double check my info is correct, it says “credentials expired” and won’t let me retry

### 1/5 — employers do not make your employees use this

*2022-11-05, version 3.303*

time off is not easily requested giving up shifts is a hassle and the messaging does not work

### 1/5 — Lost my job due to malfunction

*2021-06-30, version 3.303*

It said I didn't have any shifts this week so i didn't come in, but appearantly i did so i just lost my job

### 1/5 — Not a helpful app unfortunately

*2021-03-21, version 3.303*

This is a hard review to write because, if the developers are trying or working on things, I’m not sure how it will be taken. The criticism is meant to be helpful, not demeaning, so I hope it’s received to make improvements. So far, the only features this app has is that you can see the schedule your managers have made for you, you can receive messages only from managers, and you can put in a time off request 21 days or more out. You can also see other people’s schedules, but it takes a long time/a lot of scrolling to find what you’re looking for. And then there’s no way to contact your team except in person or if you ask them for their info. That’s just not efficient, especially when our schedules are all over the place and constantly changing. What I expected this app to have is easy navigation and filtering, as well as ability to message management and team members for any reason including a message and mechanism to swap shifts. You can give up a shift but that’s as far as it goes. You also can’t put in or set up your general availability. If I have a schedule that I can’t work certain times, instead of setting that as the standard, I’d have to go in every single week to set it up as a time off request. My managers scheduled me for a shift when I’m not available twice now because this general availability is not accessible to them through this app. They have to look somewhere else. There’s also no real info about the developer. No privacy policy available. Just doesn’t tick the boxes when it comes to typical company info or app service. It would also be nice if the app notified us of any changes made to our schedule. I’ve had my scheduled get changed a few times now after it’s been posted, without any notice. If I hadn’t happened to look, I would have missed a shift because I made plans or shown up at the wrong time. If you guys can address these things, you’ll be great competition for other time keeping apps and make a huge difference in your customer base.

### 1/5 — Loading...

*2021-02-28, version 3.303*

it only loads. never works. if i could give it no stars i would

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2021-02-04, version 3.303*

Tells me I don’t have internet connection, when I’m able to access ANYWHERE else. My work schedule changes frequently and I can’t get in to see my schedule! This is the 3rd time it’s happened since 12/27/2020!!!

### 1/5 — Eh

*2021-01-13, version 3.303*

Can’t even sign in, use username and they redirect you to the web to sign in again

### 5/5 — Timeforge is amazing!

*2023-06-14, version 3.303*

My name is Erika and Timeforge is awesome!

### 5/5 — Best scheduling app I’ve had yet

*2023-02-07, version 3.303*

I love the app it’s the best app that I’ve ever use so far. It has multiple features that I love. The top feature that I love is that it shows me my previous attendance by pay. And it estimates my amount made As well as it’ll tell me my hours that I’ve worked total. I also love the request functionality of the app so that I can request my days off well in advance. Thank you very much app developers!

### 5/5 — Works well!

*2018-09-08, version 3.257*

I work at Sprouts and we use this app for work. It is so convenient to use because it helps me check my schedule in the app without having to go into work not knowing what times I’m supposed to work. You can also give up your shift if you’re sick or unable to work due to an emergency. I highly recommend using it!

### 5/5 — Great update

*2015-12-07, version 3.0.0*

Love the new app. Really easy to use and clocking in/out is so easy. Wish former employers would use them!

### 5/5 — Good update

*2015-11-27, version 3.0.0*

Much easier to browse through shifts.  Look and feel is much better.

### 3/5 — Constantly “breaks”

*2022-03-08, version 3.303*

I use this app to see when I’m scheduled and my managers frequently send messages on the app, but every time I try to view said messages it just breaks, turns into a white page with nothing on it. I can maybe get to see one, go back to try and view another but it’ll just break. Though I mainly just use it to view my schedule, that is a quite annoying issue to have when my managers send out a message.

### 3/5 — Working progress.

*2019-08-13, version 3.262*

Most likely to work on newer updated networks. 
Seemed to always log me off whenever it felt like it , was very irritating but it comes in handy. Haven’t been having any issues lately and the new interface and color is nice I must say it makes me want to use it a little bit more.

### 3/5 — Was great but not so much recently

*2019-03-16, version 3.257*

I work at Sprouts Farmers Market. I installed this app when I started working there and I was able to check my schedule, drop shifts, pick up shifts, see messages, and see my last few weeks hours. Worked just fine on my iPhone 6s. I have recently upgraded to an iPhone XS Max and now I can’t even sign in. Tells me my credentials are invalid or expired. They are not. I use them on the website. Please fix the app so it works. I don’t always have access to a computer or have the time to wait for websites. The app was convenient until just recently.

### 3/5 — Great when it wants to work

*2018-12-19, version 3.257*

I find myself having to login almost every time, when i first started using the app it would keep me logged in. But now sometimes as I’m typing my login info it starts redirecting me to a safari page and about 60% of when that happens it doesn't let me login even though my login and password are correct. Fix the app instead of putting me on safari, theres no use in having the app take up space if its going to make me use safari when tapping the app icon.

### 3/5 — Review

*2013-10-02, version 1.2*

You need to add calender or reminder support for iphones, and maybe even make it more like the website so you can see who you are working with and such, but it is an otherwise cool and convenient app.
