★★★★ K F 5/3/2026 v1.104.5

★★★★ Richard Armstrong 4/22/2026 v1.104.5
Can't get into the app
★★★★ Kim E. 4/20/2026 v1.104.5
This is the WORST timekeeping app I have ever used. Intuitive it is NOT. To go back in and change the time is a nightmare. Hard to tell what date you're on, and whether it's the beginning of the day or lunch. THIS SUCKS. I should have known when it was "formerly known as Kronos"!
★★★★ Wyatt Granden 4/18/2026 v1.104.5
this app does not work it malfunctions constantly.
★★★★ Robert Crank 4/17/2026 v1.104.5
Buggy and annoying rating notifications after I keep hitting no. This app is garbage. Stop asking me Edit: update 4 years later. Still garbage. Never loads on time regardless of using wifi, mobile data, updating it, etc. Will cause you to clock in late because it's so poorly optimized.
★★★★ Kyle Burgess 4/14/2026 v1.104.5
it has deleted my times I clocked into work.
★★★★ jenifer andre 4/11/2026
Will not work on my phone!
★★★★ Matt Peterson 4/3/2026 v1.104.5
Constantly doesn't work. worse than ever
★★★★ David Brown 3/30/2026 v1.104.5
doesn't work for android users, UKGunready!
★★★★ Sean Sorensen 3/30/2026
Genuinely one of the worst user experiences that I'm forced to use. If you're an employer, please, use a different app. Poor design that leads to confusing menus. Absurd password requirements. All support goes through internal HR, obviously your personal experience will differ, but people with degrees pertaining to HR aren't very timely or technically skilled enough to be helpful.
★★★★ Tina Smith 3/24/2026 v1.103.6
Couldn't sign in with my company's short name for some reason but I clearly watched my coworker login fine. Very upset!
★★★★ John Harris 3/24/2026 v1.102.4
worst app ever why do i have to change my password everytime i use it
★★★★ Sinéad 3/10/2026 v1.103.6
Doesn't work on android.
★★★★ Alex 3/8/2026 v1.103.6
wow and here I thought paycom was bad. turns out there's an even worse way to display hours worked and other basic information most employees want
★★★★ Cheryl Fries 3/8/2026 v1.103.6
it asked me to change my password then locked me out cause said I changed password over 3 times in a day when it kept telling me I couldn't use the password I set
★★★★ Pebbles Wong 3/7/2026 v1.103.6
horrible app
★★★★ daibogzdoroviya tv 3/6/2026
Useless Garbage. Created to complicate people's life and add another layer of byrocracy.
★★★★★ Shell Selwood 4/11/2026 v1.104.5
difficult to navigate no clear tabs to show where access to leave applications which is it's purpose by in.
★★★★★ E R M 3/28/2026
I don't know who made this app but it says the place I work can't be found for some reason
★★★★★ Anton DeLeon 3/24/2026 v1.103.6
needs dark mode, its 2026 and this should be a standard/required feature on all apps.
★★★★★ Daniel Pershing 3/10/2026 v1.103.6
its alright, send you an email saying your paystub is ready to view but when you look it isn't
