Fdny App Reviews

Jeff I saw the first email that was spell check the second was not. What I meant was LT's and CAPT's call our overtime Post Coverage OverTime or PCOT for short. FF's OT is MMOT. Maybe add PCOT to OT button and where it was worked like P2P. Great app.

This app is very helpful if you area firefighter in the city. There is a learning curve that could be alittle easier. Also for the price I feel it should include more features such as iCloud syncing across devices and back up. I got a new device that couldn't be restored and lost everything. I know there is a back up function now which I use with my iPad but it is clunky. Also native iPad support would be awesome. A lot of guys on the job have iPhone 6/7 plus so supporting that native resolution would also be great. I feel like the text is huge sometimes and more could be fit.

This app gets rid of all of the confussion, and trying to fumble through multiple calanders to find out who I owe and who owes me. Also when taking out of borrow details using the Firehouse locater is great, get directions and even call the house from within the app. Deffinetly worth $9.99

It's not fireman proof. Make it easier to understand how to read mutals owed and worked. But there is potential

Maybe add the vacation letter chart so the vacation is put in automatically. I saw that chart in bosses office and vacations are done for the next few years.

Seriously confusing and if u do figure it out its useless ... Do not buy! Update **** the people who made this app contacted me and asked me to change my review... it is the most difficult to use app I have ever encountered and I'm extremely tech savvy ... I would not suggest anyone spend money on this app I wish I hadn't but even with this bad review they didn't offer a refund they just asked me to recant .. which I have no intention of doing

Best app if your on the job period. Awesome support if you need it. I switched phone and had problems backing up so I contacted them through email, quick response and they help back up and restore to another phone.

Great app. But need a bug fix for IOS 11

Haven't carried a paper calendar in years! This app is perfect for the FDNY chart. Nice job continually addressing user feedback. Can't live without this app, worth every penny.

Needs to be optimized for the larger sized iPhones (6 and 6 plus). Otherwise a great app!

Great. Worth it. No more ripped up calendars to carry around. Nice job brother. 

Great app I do reccomend it , 5/5 only thing I think It needs is highway boxes and the new transit boxes

It takes a while to learn everything thats available to you on this app, but once you do, there's no going back to your paper calendar. If you have any problems or questions, write to the app creators, and they get right back to you with the answer. It is a really well thought out app, and I highly recommend it to any FDNY member! If you're detailed out of house, go to your firehouse locator, awesome!

great

I love this so far... Does need a slot for OT shifts and EMS only stations... Also all station numbers added to contact would be helpful.. Over all great job!

Excellent app! If you are a city fireman and hv an iPhone, this is a must have app. Does everything. V/L, RSOT, firehouses, call boxes, mutuals......awesome app for FDNY. Keep the updates coming. Just gets better & better

Great app. Awesome for keeping track of and checking ot, mutuals, and square rooting. Haha

This app is the only calendar app I really use. Since the job comes first, this is all I need.

Great App! After using it for a while you get the hang of it, it does everything you need! Keeping track of OT & mutuals is a breeze now. Great Job!

I’ve been using this app since its inception. I love it. It’s the only calendar app that I use. Over the years whenever I’ve had questions, even recently, I’ve contacted them and they have always replied quickly and help work out the issue. Great customer service. Highly recommend this app.

Great app, I was hesitant at first spending the money but I haven't looked back. I used to go through a couple calendars a year and many erasers lol. I had my calendar on every where i went and literally every trip I took. It was such a hassle but you never know when your gonna bank a tour or a last minute MX. I haven't picked up that calendar since. and I recommend it to all of us with iPhones. PS: I stumbled upon the app by mistake while being a lil Buffy. Seems like word of mouth is how were finding out about this one. And its just one house at a time. You might want to think about marketing this thru the bag or with a flyer to them all. Stay safe all...

Finally!!!! A must have for every Fdny member. Would love to see a mutual exchange with text messages rather then e-mail.

Have had it for years now and swear by it. From adjusting my tours to adding OT to finding other firehouses with phone #’s when taking a detail. Syncs with iCal, can see my entire calendar in one place!

Great app but I work the ems side so it doesn't work for me. My fire suppression buddies seem to think it's pretty useful though. Btw fort totten is spelled wrong in the phone number listing.

I’ve been using this calendar for about 6 years now. It almost immediately replaced my paper calendar and it was not very hard to get to learn. That being said, technology has changed a lot in that time period and I believe this app is due for some upgrades. iCloud syncing, screen resolution, notifications, etc. I give 4 stars because the app works great and has since I started using it. But an occasional refresh and upgraded features would be nice.

Every FDNY member with an iphone should own this app! It doesn't get any easier than this in managing your schedule. You always have your phone with you and now you have your chart with you as well.

Must be a problem with this new upgrade...everytime I click the paycheck icon on bottom the app crashes...please fix

The app hasn’t been updated in 2 years

This is an excellent app. It consolidates all of your busy lifestyle activities in one place. My only improvement would be to intergrate an alarm to the scheduler so that I don't have to continually look at it to make sure I'm not missing something

A must have app. It's sick

It took a long time of just palying with it to figure out how it works (entering mx partner tours vs. other mx's, 2 mx's in 1 day...) but once I figured it out and customized the calendar to look exactly how I want, no doubt this app is a homerun!! VERY easy to use!! Def worth $10 but it does takes some patience in the beginning.

Very good app. Once you get used to it you be without it!

Good for locations and directions could be a bit easier to enter OT and mx's. Great for the chart and incorporating your calendar events.

This app is great and is a must have for any FDNY fireman. Keep up the great work.

When I initially got the app it was a bit confusing and took a little time to figure it out but once I did I can’t live without it. Single most important app I have now.

Those are all essential tools for a modern fireman. I'm notoriously cheap but, I'm also a gadget geek and love anything that will organize my life AND give me all the info I need right at my finger tips, so I forked over the $9.99. Probably the most well spent $10 I ever let leave my hand. It does take a good amount of playing with to get the hang of it but once it clicks it's like the roof being open. It works best when you keep a guys group # with his contact info. Need off for a particular tour? Just touch & hold the day and a list of guys who's groups would be a good fit come up. Cuts the amount of phone calls down tremendously. If you like to work out your MXs w/you partner a month in advance like me it's helps to put yours & his vacation & RSOTs in for the year. Takes 5 minutes and there's never any last minute surprises that'll have you scrambling. P/u a tour and it keeps track of it. You can also put in a note like why you worked for them or what they needed of for. And if you have someone else pay them back you can put that in there too. Keeps the confusion about paying a tour back or who owes you to a minimum. You'll be able to jog their memory w/why and not have to search through weeks/months of entries in the book for the who & when. Fireman notoriously don't like change. Don't be a dinosaur. If you've got an iPhone, BUY THIS APP! Get the Johnny to show you how to use it. The pocket group chart used to be the best tool an off-duty fireman had. This is incredible! And if you have any questions or suggestions the developer gets right back to you and appreciates the feedback. It's a no brainer.

Great group chart calendar that sync with your regular calendar. Run my life through this app. There is a learning curve to really get full use of this app and it will take a while. If you put in all your OT dates, after a year you will have a rolling calendar of when your hours fall off. Keeps track of all your banked/owed mutuals with a person. List of all firehouse locations and phone numbers. Etc. Possibly a tutorial video should be made to get people started.

Awesome app, thanks for responding to the updates theyre awesome great app, my fav

I never wrote a review before, but this app deserves it. Great job. A bunch of the guys at my house have this app and we all love it. I use it all of the time to track OT, late runs, Mx, and just about everything else. The new update is great. Putting the box #'s is just what the chauffeur ordered. Thanks for all of your hard work.

Great app. Still learning the finer things about it, but as mentioned, once you get the hang of it, it's great
