Swing Subs - For Substitutes

Less offers + new app setup needs changes!!

I really loved the old swing app. I barely get any offers anymore. Could you please bring back a few key features? Specifically, the ability to filter offers by distance and by offer duration (1 day vs multiple days). These features were very helpful. Right now, some schools aren’t organized by location, and with many long term offers listed, it’s quite difficult to find offers. Returning these features would make the app much easier to use and would be greatly appreciated!

Going to a school district

Swing was good when I signed up last yr, but now there are barely any requests to pick up. Not only that but the pay is extremely low compared to being in a district. With the new timesheet format, I now have to a new login to a completely different app (which is their username that you have to store) in order to punch a clock for hourly work. Even though they say you don’t have to leave the app, it literally doesn’t let you punch although their pop-up says otherwise. Also, with the addition of the hourly formatting, PAY IS NOT WEEKLY ANYMORE, even though it is still being advertised as such. You used to get paid the following week of Friday but now the timesheets aren’t even approved until then which means obviously the pay won’t be that same day, it’ll take another week. Also with taxes being taken out on already low pay and with lesser amount of requests, it’s not worth the hassle searching constantly to hope one pops up. When you aren’t getting enough requests, it makes no sense for us to be official employees and not contractors anymore. No way people are able to get full time or the so called benefits. Go back to contract work and let us take out our own taxes at the end of the yr. Otherwise I can tell you now, yall only have about another 1-2yrs before yall are defunct.
