I am not sure how much money my employer is spending for this scheduling software, but whatever it is, I am sure it is too much for what you get. I will say it is nice to be able to see not only your schedule, but who you work with. But it just will not work for some companies. I will explain a huge issue I see with this app. Now it may work for businesses who work 9a-5p, or a day and afternoon shift with no night shift. It is not going to work for night shifts who also work overtime. I work in a 911 center, so obviously we are staffed 24/7. We have a lot of overtime. Now we work 7a-3p, 3p-11p, 11p-7a. If i want to know what I work on say July 15th and I am on midnight shift, I get on the app or website, look at “midnights” and then look for my name. Now normally this would say 11p-7a if I did not have any overtime. Now if I did have overtime from 7a-11a so I was working 11pm on July 15th and the morning of July 16th staying over until 11a, I would have to check my schedule for July 16th, even though it is the same shift from July 15th. Apparently there is no way to keep the overtime hours on the same day when it runs over in to a new day. Does not make sense to me considering my midnight shift is 11p-7a, so technically shouldn’t the app says July 15th I am working 11p-12a and then the next day, July 16th, say I am working 12a-7a since 12am starts a new day?

The developer hasn't updated since it's initial release in 2014 and there's only the bare minimum of functionality. You'll only be able to see one day at a time for multiple employees or a list of a week's worth of shifts for yourself. There's no calendar view, no notifications for messages or changes, no interface for managers, no integration with iOS's native calendar or Google calendar. There's only the minimum of effort applied to the app for the developer to say they HAVE an app. On a related note, if you or your business has the option to use a different vendor entirely, it would be worth it. The overall user experience for the main web interface is a pain and unnecessarily hard to use as a manager and view as an employee. The best thing I can say about it is that using the Web interface on an iPhone is painful enough to use this app, but only because it's literally only better than nothing.

Works for me just fine. Can even make shift changes with last update.

Why would any company use this scheduling system is hard to understand. This "app" is just the same as a mobile web version. No new features. No innovative ideas. No way to "save" your schedule. Want to sync to google calendar to push to your iPhone? Nope. Want to a text message or email to tell you the daily assignment? Nope. Want to see a month view like on the desktop? Nope. Want ease in scheduling your employees and their daily assignments? Nope. ***To Atlas Software: if you are going to spam your app reviews with bogus 5-star ratings then at least make sure they can write correctly in English! ***

We use ScheduleAnywhere online and have for years. It's not the most elegant but it has features we haven't found anywhere else- even on very expensive scheduling programs. But this app- doesn't work at all. I hope they get it fixed because I've been hoping they would develop an ipad/ iphone version. It would also be nice if their scheduling program synced with our personal calendars. But that's another story.
