​HotSchedules is the industry's leading employee scheduling app because it’s the fastest and easiest way to manage your schedule and communicate with your team.

Team members love it because they can swap, pick-up or release shifts with one click. Work-life balance is easily managed with automatic shift pick ups when you want more hours and time off requests for when you don’t. Calendar sync and notifications keep your Schedules and the roster automatically updated to your phone with any manager-approved changes.

Managers appreciate the 75% time savings when building schedules and one-click approvals for shift changes. The ability to monitor business performance with sales and labor snapshots from anywhere, keeps them out of the back office.

Edit 2: as always Hotschedules is on top of it!! They were quick to respond to their customers to switch their layout back to what we're used to! Thank you!! ---‐-----------‐------------------------- I've been working in the restaurant industry for almost 20 years, and this app has done wonders with the hassle that comes from trying to get your shifts picked up or swapped. Simple to use, and very convenient on the go.

Edit: They fixed the bad update. Much better now. The newest update is awful. It changed how shifts are displayed. AM and PM shifts are no longer displayed separately and it is no longer organized by job. This makes it very annoying to find out who is working in my department on a given shift.

Loved the app an update or 2 ago, when the background was the solid gray and bold blue this transparent update is all confusing, and looking at shifts the times are not in order and most of the time don't show accurate. I like the vision, but I'd go back and iron things out before pushing it. Nothing was wrong with it before.
