## Review summary

Users generally praise Red Rover K12 for being easy to use and for strong scheduling controls—filters, availability, and quick access to assignments with details. The app helps plan weekly work and accept shifts efficiently. However, multiple reviews report reliability problems: some jobs don’t show or disappear quickly, notifications fail or are delayed, and open positions aren’t always displayed correctly, with occasional bugs. Overall, it’s user-friendly with robust scheduling features, but posting/alert reliability needs improvement.

- Efficient for finding and accepting substitute jobs with helpful filters and clear details (dates, addresses)
- Instant/ timely notifications about new assignments and schedule updates

### Cons

- Jobs not showing or postings disappearing quickly
- Notifications not reliably delivered or occasionally buggy
- Open positions not displayed properly or display issues
- Occasional bugs affecting app performance
