Decent workforce app. Relatively user friendly and straightforward. Cash out doesn't work with PayPal, which is disappointing.. Other than that, I've encountered no issues. Definitely WAY better than UKG. until it broke. now I cannot sign in, because I can't remember my password And regardless of how fast I put in the reset code it tells me it's already used

Was working perfectly fine my first few weeks of work until it completely signed me out for no reason. Couldn't get back in because I couldn't remember my password, however when I tried to make a new password it never sent me an email to make a new one and I have not been able to see my work schedule or been able to clock in on the app since. Tried uninstalling then reinstalling but that did not work either. Tried my phone number, still did not work.

The app functions great for scheduling. Easy to learn and intuitive. There are a couple quirks that annoy me. When changing a shift, rarely will a person qualified for the shift be in suggested in the drop down. For instance, changing a manager shift, hosts and dishwashers show up but zero management. This , in the grand scheme is minor, but frustrating nonetheless.

Thanks, Tom! We’re glad Homebase is working well for scheduling and that you find it easy to learn and use. We hear you on the quirks with shift changes not suggesting the right roles — that can be frustrating, and we’ve shared this with our product team. Thank you for being the best part of Homebase 💜
