17hats 4+

Overall the app works pretty good. It needs some serious improvements though. I shouldn’t have to log in every time I open the app, that’s a bit frustrating. If anything give us Face ID so it’s faster. I would also like to be able to create projects and send contracts/quotes to clients. It’s not quite as useful as I hoped it would be. I think you need a UI overhaul too. It feels outdated and I’m hearing honeybook is taking the lead because they have more frequent updates.

For some reason when I accept bookings on my 17hats app on my phone vs. on my laptop my clients start getting every correspondence double time. For example: 2 of the same invoices which is extremely stressful to our clients. With how much we pay and the time we have put in trying to make this program truly work for our business, we are pretty frustrated by how unprofessional this issue makes our business look. I’m doing nothing different on my mobile app than I would on my laptop to accept bookings and start workflows. Going to make another complaint, but this has happened multiple times now which makes me not want to use the app all together. I’ve done lots of trouble shooting to see if it was a “user error” but it’s happened again and I was so careful regarding what I clicked. When the app works, it’s great! I genuinely like using 17hats, but apps either work or don’t work, and this issue is intense enough for me to no longer rely on it. Fix the glitches and I’ll be back on the bandwagon.

I love 17 hats as a program, works great on my laptop and iPad but the app on my phone is so faulty and inconsistent. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. It’s frustrating because most of the time it’s NOT working on my phone. But when using on my computer it’s totally reliable and easy to use. Please fix the app already…it’s been years and this is something that will make me switch programs eventually.
