Rotaready

Limited to what you can do via the app - much better out there - avoid it

I work for a restaurant group and we’ve only very recently started using Rotaready. I wouldn’t normally review but Im so pleased with this. I’ve given 5 stars too cos before we got this, rotas we’re scribbled on a bit of paper, holidays not properly logged, etc. Now I can check out the rota in real time, see how much holiday I’ve got, see the hours I’ve actually worked (I worked overtime last Friday) and its all there. It’s pretty decent tbh

Tells me there has been a change to my shift but when I click on the notification it doesn’t update to the new shift. The old hours and times are still there. All in all it’s good just this issue with the app refreshing new notifications. Also has some issues with clock in and out.

keep saying one but nothing there

Okay for team members; clocking in/out, requesting holiday etc. Does the basics, but more features could definitely be added. However, from a management perspective it’s atrocious; you can’t manage attendance, draft/publish rotas, edit availability or access your team’s contact information. You have to do all that from a desktop, as the mobile browser version is also a nightmare to navigate. Could really do with a complete overhaul or a separate app for managers.

- You should be able to manage rota’s from within the App, Submit, Create Draft’s and approve Absences! - The flash of a white screen when launching is annoying. - Notifications should be better (rich notifications) , with the option of detecting location and prompting a clock-in and a notification for clocking out depending on when the shift ends! - The App Icon needs a context menu for quickly going to different screens! - Widget of scheduled shifts would be nice!

I have to use this for work and have 2 jobs so 2 log ins. Every time I open it, it say up load update then says, despite a new ipad, that its not compatible. Instead of accessing a working version it blocks any use so every time I need to check or clock in, I have to re-download App. Rubbish!

Unbelievably the app is even worse than the actual platform. Most things that available from a browser are bot available in the app. Enjoy clocking in and out, whenever it allows it.

How can this app be so bad, I can log into the website via safari but via the app I cannot Work that out

Really easy to use, clocking in is super fast and the push notification are really handy!
