2025-01-07	Wa*****	Full of unnecessary redundancies and doesn't have redundancy where it should. Poorly designed and has been this way for quite some time so clearly this company has no intention of improving the app. Not recommended at all.

2024-07-16	Jo*****	This app is absolutely terrible and has been frustrating to use since the company I work for decided to start using it. It hangs constantly, now it's every time I type in my code, try to change jobs etc. it takes nearly 5 minutes to clock in to every job and to clock out for lunch and at the end of the day. I'm sure there are better apps out there, pretty sure my company chose this one because it was the cheapest...

2024-04-10	Vi*****	Horrible experience after horrible experience with the new updates this year. We are switching back to foundation field log due to the constant connection issues, both on the app and the desktop website. I have been unable to correctly compute payroll for MONTHS due to this app, and it's affecting our business heavily. And they expect us to delete & reinstall the app after every update on every single employees phone, which is impossible as we have 40 employees at different jobsites every day.

2023-09-12	Da*****	Tracking app that periodically likes to turn the camera and microphone on for no apparent reason when not in use. Also conveniently cant store more then a few weeks worth of timesheets despite the minuscule amount of data it would take to do so for atleast a year.

2023-06-09	Ga*****	When you go to "time review" for your clock in/out hours, and select multiple days, it'd be nice to be shown a total of those hours for the selected days. So I selected 4 days with 8 hours, and it would tell you the "total" of 32 hours. Instead of having to take an extra 15mins to add and convert to find out what your total hours are for the week, or selected period. Also it'd be nice to be able to edit notes after they've been made, if you haven't yet synced that peroid.
