Your home screen

See today's shift at a glance, pick up open shifts, and find your way around Shiftly Me.

Home is the first thing you see when you open Shiftly Me. It answers the question you actually opened the app for: am I working today?

Who this is for

Staff using the Shiftly Me app on their phone.

What's on the home screen

The Shiftly Me home screen greeting Marie, showing no shifts today, one open shift available, and a start unscheduled shift button

  • Your greeting — a hello with your first name, and the bell in the top right for your notifications.
  • Today's shift — if you're rostered today, it shows here. If you're not, you'll see No shifts today and Check back later to see your shifts.
  • Open shifts — a count of shifts going spare that you could pick up. Tap it to see them and put your hand up. See Claiming open shifts.
  • Start unscheduled shift — begin a shift that isn't on your roster, for when you're called in or cover at short notice.

Moving around the app

The tabs along the bottom are the whole app:

TabWhat's there
HomeToday at a glance
RosterYour upcoming shifts and your timesheets
LeaveRequest time off and check your balances
MessagesChat with your manager and workmates
AccountYour details, pay info and app settings

A red badge on a tab means something needs you — an unread message, for example.

Notifications

The first time you open your roster, Shiftly Me asks whether to turn on push notifications, so you hear about new roster alerts, shift or roster changes, and shift reminders without opening the app. You can say Not now and turn them on later — see Notification preferences.
