NurseGrid Nurse Shift Calendar

NurseGrid has been incredibly helpful for keeping track of my schedule and staying organized with my shifts. One feature that would make it even better would be the option to mark when a shift was cancelled. Currently, there are options to label shifts such as being in charge, which is great, but there isn’t a clear way to indicate a cancelled shift. Adding a “cancelled shift” option that reflects in a different color would make a huge difference, so it’s visually clear that the shift was cancelled and not worked. Right now, adding a note still makes it look like a regular shift, which can be confusing when reviewing past or upcoming schedules. This would help nurses keep accurate records of schedule changes, hours, and availability. Also, when are we getting widgets? A calendar widget would be extremely helpful so I could quickly see the dates I’m scheduled to work without having to open the app. Linking it to the phone’s calendar is not the same as having a dedicated NurseGrid widget. Having a widget would make it much easier to stay organized and quickly check my schedule at a glance. Overall, it’s a great app, and adding these features would make it even more useful for nurses.

Don’t get me wrong, this app is the main reason my friends and I working can plan things together. But ever since I started using it, there’s alot of things that need fixing. First of all, the notification system is inconsistent. When you make requests to connect with colleagues, you’ll get a notif then sent to the app but then it disappears once taken there. When you leave and refresh the app then you can see that they’ve already been added to your list, even though notification tab always says activity is clear. Another thing is I recently have been having issues seeing my favorites on my list at all; I tried to remove and re-connect with them to see if it would resolve the issue but now they won’t get added to my list at all; I have to manually type them in everytime just to see their schedule even if i’m already friends with them on the app. I have tried deleting the app and refreshing my account and the issue remains. Please make bug fixes and update the app; thanks.

I think this is a good app but is definitely not great. It feels very aged to me. There are apps with more functionality and more features. I think this is used because it’s just a standard with nurses, everyone just hops in cuz it’s what’s popular. Not sure if that’s why there are few updates and far between. Simple is good which is a great part of this app but there aredefinitely ways that can make it more user friendly and keep up with the times. With this app being out 4 years. I’m just expecting more. As others have suggested a dark mode would be appreciated as well as the ability to have a widget on your Home Screen for quick and easy viewing. More colors, icons that pertain to other aspects of life. I would also like to maybe have days with multiple events have a split color to see that my day isn’t just full of one thing without having to click on the dots for everyday I have lots going on. Also, definitely need to be able to compare multiple colleagues. Fortunately for me, I have more than one friend/coworker so it would be great to be able to pair up my schedule with ALL of them . Good app but can be better. Other Apps are too advanced for it to not have these features . Developers-I feel like need to be a little more innovative with ideas and make it a priority to push out not only bug fixes but ALSO new features, maybe a slightly different upgraded interface.
