    …n’t think anyone would see the updated app as better or even helpful. If it doesn’t change back or get better I’m switching from clover.

    …mazing tool for my business but this new update makes it now useless. It is a stupid design that is hard to understand and very frustrating to work with. I am begging Clover to switch it back to their previous design. If I could rate 0 stars, I would.

    …sales from the previous 7 days without going to the reporting portal. I don’t want a web app I need an actual app I could just go to safari and do the same thing. Really terrible decision.

    …good app and ruined it. Not made it better like an update should be. I wish you could go back to the old version it was so much better had better features and not to mention all the times that it logs you off and doesn’t let you login sometimes for more than a day. Give us the option to go back to the old version!
