Sling works really well for my uses, both for timetracking and scheduling. Only niggle is that the clock-in button could be more responsive. Sometimes I’m sure that I’ve pressed it only to later find out that it didn’t register. This is on iPhone 7 and the new SE.
Would have been great without the bugs

Messaging is highly unreliable. Sometimes messages don't appear with the recipient, but is in the sender's history. Sometimes they appear hours or days later. This has created a lot of problems. If we deploy an app to have secure messaging, it has to be 100% reliable.The webgui is slow, and doesn't always catch up with the user. Changes aren't always syncronised, so what's on the webpage does not match what's in the app.These errors were reported to Sling three years ago, unfortunately it is still not fixed. Do not use this software if you need something reliable.
Thanks for using Sling! This update includes minor improvements and bug fixes.
As always, if you run into any troubles, let us know at feedback@getsling.com
