…app for the past two years and it’s been good up until 6 months ago. It’s so slow and buggy it’s infuriating.

FrustratedPlanday Employee Scheduling — Buggy So slow. Always freezes and shuts off, then you have to reopen the app and it’s still slow. Could be a great app if it didn’t take me 2 minutes just to see my shift the next day.
…ssed This app is a pain in the butt! It always closes out mid login. Then it freezes. Just not impressed
