The countdown that used to show up whenever I would clock out for break is gone with the latest update. I don't know why you would get rid of it, it was super helpful. Now I have to constantly watch the clock to make sure I clock in from break when time is up. I don't use the clock back in reminder in settings because it's never accurate. It always notifies me too late. I hope the countdown timer returns in the next update.

This app is supposed to have a feature where it would sync to our Google Calendar however often you scheduled it to. Mine was for 24 hours. This feature didn't always work, I usually had to open the app to make it do so manually, but it was a feature I relied on. This issue only got worse, not better, and now it doesn't sync to calendar at all. If I try to disable it and enable, I now cannot even select a Google Calendar for it to sync to.

Always been a great app for the jobs I've used it with throughout the years, up until recently. Messages don't get sent or receieved on time (ex: sends a message at 10:30am, won't show until 10:35am), and as of now it has logged me out of my account and won't log back in. Met with an error message every time. Managers can't figure it out either.

It worked great until a recent update. They completely ruined the message center. It is genuinely UNUSABLE. It locks everything in its own tab, and I have to dig and dig and dig. Every damn time, I get a notification. also, half my chats are just missing and can no longer DM, anyone. Good luck getting rid of the notification dot on the app because that's permanent now. Used to just all be in one big list, I didnt have to do 8 extra things just to read a message. wish I could give lower than 1.

Do NOT use pay any day or instant pay, and DO NOT open a homebase spending account by any means. Only use this app as a time clock and messaging platform. The terms of their money accounts are unclear until you are already stuck with one and unable to close it until four weeks after you open it (two paydays). You will be trapped in endless loops of drafting between accounts, and longer than normal ACH clearing times (5-7 days). Their solution is to use cashapp instead of their card. Crazy!

Notification alerts are malfunctioning. I searched the settings and disabled the alerts. I went back into settings and put alerts back on. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the app but the alert notifications don't work properly. This error didn't happen until recently when there was an update 😕 I accepted the update otherwise I couldn't use the app anymore. I contacted the supervisor in charge of the app group and was unable to help. I can't receive upcoming schedules and messages.
