7shifts restaurant employee scheduling software allows users to create schedules with one click. It can be used as a web-based platform and is also available for mobile use, downloadable from the App Store and Google Play. Employees can check their schedules, along with submitting time-off or other requests, anywhere they have access to the app.
Furthermore, the app allows owners and managers to do everything they could do on a laptop or desktop computer. Managers are able to make shift changes, approve or deny requests, create group chats, and send out announcements.
