Frequently Asked Questions

Getting Started

How do I create an account?

Download the ShiftEase app from the App Store or Google Play, then tap "Sign Up" to create your account. You'll need an email address and a password. The process takes less than a minute.

How do I invite team members?

Go to Settings → Team → Invite Members. You can send invitations via email or share a join code. Team members will receive an invitation link to download the app and join your team.

Is there a tutorial or demo?

Yes! When you first log in, you'll see a quick walkthrough of the main features. You can also access video tutorials in the app by going to Help → Tutorials.

Scheduling

How do I create a shift?

Tap the "+" button on the calendar view, select a date and time, assign an employee, and save. You can also drag and drop shifts to reschedule them quickly.

Can employees request shift swaps?

Yes! Employees can request to swap shifts with coworkers. The manager receives a notification and can approve or deny the swap request.

How do I handle shift conflicts?

ShiftEase automatically detects scheduling conflicts and displays a warning. You'll see if an employee is already scheduled, unavailable, or exceeds their maximum hours.

Can I copy shifts from previous weeks?

Absolutely! Use the "Copy Week" feature to duplicate an entire week's schedule. This is perfect for teams with repeating schedules.

Time Tracking

How does GPS verification work?

When employees clock in or out, ShiftEase captures their GPS location (with their permission). This helps verify they're at the correct work location and prevents buddy punching.

Can employees clock in early?

You can set a grace period in Settings. For example, allow employees to clock in up to 10 minutes early. Any time before that will require manager approval.

How do I export timesheets?

Go to Reports → Timesheets, select the date range, and tap "Export." You can download as CSV or PDF for payroll processing.

Account & Billing

Is ShiftEase really free?

Yes! The core features are completely free for unlimited team members. Premium features like advanced analytics and integrations are available with a paid plan.

How do I change my password?

Go to Settings → Account → Change Password. You'll need to enter your current password and choose a new one.

How do I delete my account?

Go to Settings → Account → Delete Account. Note that this action is permanent and will delete all your data, including schedules and team information.

Technical Issues

The app won't sync my changes

Check your internet connection. ShiftEase requires an active connection to sync data. If offline, changes will sync automatically when you reconnect.

I'm not receiving notifications

Go to your device Settings → ShiftEase → Notifications and ensure they're enabled. Also check that Do Not Disturb mode is off.

The app keeps crashing

Try force-closing the app and reopening it. If the issue persists, check for updates in the App Store or Google Play. Contact support if the problem continues.
