SavorCrew is the shift app for restaurant and taproom staff. Your schedule, your clock, and the jobs that have to be done — in one place. YOUR SCHEDULE See the shifts you are on, pick up open shifts, and hand one off when you cannot make it. CLOCK IN AND OUT Clock in from your phone. SavorCrew checks you are at the venue when you do — location is used at that moment only, never in the background, and never to follow you off shift. CHECKLISTS AND LOGS Opening and closing lists, temperature logs, and equipment checks, with a photo when one is needed. MESSAGES Manager-visible channels for the floor and the kitchen. Anything can be flagged for a manager to review. YOUR ACCOUNT You can delete your account and its data from inside the app, in Settings. SavorCrew requires an account at a venue that uses SavorSuite. It is built by HEARD Management LLC. SUBSCRIPTIONS SavorCrew plans are auto-renewing monthly subscriptions. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation, and renews within 24 hours of the period ending unless cancelled first. Manage or cancel at any time in your Apple ID settings. Current prices are shown in the app before you subscribe. Terms of Use: https://savorcrew.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://savorcrew.com/privacy
