Before Sub Alert, my family would be awakened repeatedly every morning at 5 am when the Robo calls from KES for THAT DAY started coming in. Some jobs I couldn’t take because they were a foreign language or mathematics so I would reject them only to quickly get another call - waking my family again - with another job offer. Once I accepted a job, I’d have to scramble to get ready, make my lunch and drive to my assignment. I can always book a sub job with Sub Alert. I have the $6.99/month package and I’ve met other subs who got the $4.99 package but upgraded after meeting me because those text make all the difference. It’s more effective than when I sat on Aesop refreshing my screen all day...only to be beaten out by someone with Sub Alert. Don’t know why I’m encouraging others to get on Sub Alert when I could keep this as my secret weapon for always having an assignment. No one in my family misses those 5 am phone calls. Even the dog is happy I got Sub Alert.

Update: I am no longer on the free trial but I am a subscriber now because the app is that great. I work Monday -Friday every single week solely off of this app! I never log into Aesop unless I want to cancel a job. Also, when I subscribed I stopped getting texts just app alerts so it's a mega win-win for me! Please get this app, you won't be disappointed! (No I am not paid to write a review.) -----I am a recent college grad and very new to substitute teaching. This app has given me an edge over other subs in the area because I am instantly alerted when a job becomes available! Awesome. My only complaint is that I wish there was a way to turn off texts since I am getting notifications from the app directly. Also I wish the texts came from one number as opposed to a different number for each job. I look at my phone at times and I have 25 new texts and 25 notifications , but hey! I'm grateful. Also the auto-sync with iCal is great!I'm using the trial now but I will definitely be subscribing!

I absolutely love how many jobs I get with this app. The only things I hate about it is the middle of the night job alerts and getting alerts for jobs that have already been assigned to other subs.Edit..... I got a response for alerts for jobs that were quickly snagged by others subs. I understand that but I got an alert for a job that I know was scheduled for a sub already. No one else would have had the option to accept it. Because the teacher assigned a sub to the job. Why would I get an alert for that job? And if I can get an alert for that job already assigned then why not others? That was my complaint. Again, I love this app. I have questions. Also? Who put the crappy by name. I understand not using my real name but I don't believe I had an option to put a written by name!!Thanks for the 2:41 am job alert last night. I got it!!

The app works pretty well for what it’s advertised to do, and the service is totally worth $5 a month to get literally hundreds and thousands of dollars of sub jobs sent to my phone in push notifications. Amazing! I am a grad student and am therefore rather frugal, but this service is totally worth the money. I reached out yesterday asking about the website server being down because I forgot to cancel my subscription til August (since all schools are closed right now), and Keith from SubAlert support told me when the site would be back up. Today, I went in to cancel for May moving forward (I missed the date to cancel for April). I got an email soon after from Keith that he went in to cancel my subscription and refunded my previous payment for the month of April (without me even asking). Everything helps, especially now. Thank you Keith, the SubAlert team, and hope you all stay healthy!
