Features Users Want Most in Salary Negotiation Timer Apps

"After the update I'm missing gigs because it constantly requires me to log in every time before accepting a job. Can you please give an option to stay logged in??"

"The purpose of this app is great, and I'm very glad the app exists. What is obnoxious in this moment right now, is how the app keeps logging me out every roughly 3 days. To have to enter a username and password so frequently is absolutely ridiculous."

"Calendar only syncs with google calendar and even then, it's very faulty. It only syncs 2 or 3 events of the 12 I have per month. Also it won't sync with apple calendar. Could be better with a subscription iCal link or other avenues to sync events"

"Ever since the newest update update it takes forever to load, if it actually ever does. Also, make it so you can 'mark all as read' on the notifications."

"Salary or wages should not be exposed on any page of the app. In fact, there should be an option to hide your salary or wages in the app. This is a personal data that should never be exposed in an app"

"Please Nowsta team roll back the color scheme and calendar style. The green / red / purple indicator dots pre-update were much more clear and indicative of the workload for the day. At one glance I knew if the day was going to be heavy or light."

Build ultra-reliable shift notification system with offline queuing

Workers are losing income because they miss shift notifications due to logouts and slow loading. A competitor that guarantees instant notifications and allows shift claims even during brief connectivity issues would capture frustrated users immediately.

Implement persistent login with biometric authentication

Random logouts are the #1 complaint causing direct income loss. Biometric auth (Face ID/Touch ID) would eliminate password friction while maintaining security, solving the core problem that costs workers 'hundreds of dollars'.

Create simple, stable UI with optional calendar sync (Apple + Google)

Users repeatedly praise the old version's simplicity and hate the redesign. Build a clean, fast interface that doesn't change unnecessarily, with proper calendar integration that actually works across platforms.

Add privacy controls for salary/contact info visibility

Multiple users express serious privacy concerns about exposed wages and phone numbers. Giving workers control over what personal data is visible differentiates from Nowsta's one-size-fits-all approach and addresses safety concerns.

Build for newer iPhones first with proper safe area handling

Nowsta has screen cutoff issues on iPhone 17 making core features unusable. Starting with modern iOS development practices and safe area insets from day one avoids this critical UX failure that prevents basic app usage.
