Great app
Free version is great for small studio owners
Unwanted updates
It’s really frustrating when square does an update, for various bug fixes and improvements and bam, throws in dark mode. Dark mode with no option to turn it off in app, it just follows the iPhone setting which is frustrating. Please add an individual setting for this inside the app.

Slow Loading and Sync Problems Across Locations
We’ve had a really frustrating experience using Square Appointments, especially managing multiple locations. In theory, the platform should make it easy to switch between sites, but in practice it’s been anything but smooth. Whenever we switch between our two locations, the app often gets stuck loading for a long time. Even worse, it doesn’t reliably update after switching. This creates confusion and makes it difficult to trust the schedule, which is a serious issue when you’re trying to run a business efficiently. The lag and lack of real-time syncing between locations have caused repeated disruptions for our team. We’ve had to double-check bookings manually or even restart the app just to see accurate information. It slows everything down and adds unnecessary stress to our day-to-day operations. Overall, while Square Appointments has some useful features, the performance issues—particularly with multi-location management—have been a major downside for us. We really hope to see improvements in stability and syncing because right now, it’s not meeting our needs.
Time zone issues
I have been dealing with a serious timezone issue with Square Appointments since May 2026, and it is affecting my business. My business location timezone is correctly set to Pacific Time (Vancouver, Canada), but appointments and business hours after the daylight saving time change in November are displayed one hour incorrectly. I have checked everything: * My iPhone timezone is correctly set to Vancouver/Pacific Time. * Square Dashboard location shows Pacific Time. * The issue happens on the Square App and Safari. * On iOS devices, appointments added from the confirmation message to Apple Calendar are also shifted by one hour. * My customers’ iPhones have the same calendar issue when adding the appointment. Interestingly, when I access Square from a desktop Chrome browser, the schedule appears correct, which suggests this may be related to how Square handles timezone/DST information on iOS devices or calendar integration. I have contacted support multiple times since May 30 and provided screenshots, but the issue is still unresolved. This is causing stress because future appointments are already being booked and I need reliable scheduling. Please investigate this timezone/DST issue, especially for Vancouver/Pacific Time users.
MINI AUTO GARAGE
Good
Not mobile friendly anymore
I’ve been on square appointments with my business for 5 years or so and recently their updates in the calendar format on the phone are absolutely not phone friendly! Clearly they don’t test it on a phone anymore as the keyboard covers the personal time entry notes so you can’t see what your writing and it’s so clunky now and time consuming to put in when your on the go and running a business..the interface changes they have made over the last few months just keep changing and most of the them not for the better sadly we are looking at moving away from square because no care is given for us mobile service businesses on the go! This is what an app is for!
So so
Good but expensive. Also I have monthly subscription and still not accept deposit payments from my clients
Inaccurate payment tracking
Due to bugs that aren’t being fixed the app no longer marks appointments paid in calendar after invoice is paid. After calling and asking for help they basically said there is nothing they can do and to manually go through and refund appoints to keep accuracy in book keeping. Losing faith in this app.
Works for basics scheduling , limited mobile experience. Definitely room for improvement
Compared to using other scheduling platforms as a premium user, Square Appointments feels quite limited, especially on mobile. You can’t easily book time off or schedule breaks, and unless you log into the full web browser, it’s hard to clearly see time that’s been blocked off. The basic scheduling and payment integration work fine, but the lack of flexibility and a weak mobile experience make it less practical for day to day management. There’s definite room for improvement.
Awesome product!
I really enjoy this app I use a lot of the square platforms, they work well together.
Mauvais service au Service à la clientèle
Nous utilisons Square depuis 6 ans et nous avons souvent des bugs dans notre système. Chaque fois que nous appelons au service à la clientèle s’est compliqué et le personnel mets la faute sur nous. Depuis 3 semaines, nous devons calculer tous les frais de facturation de chaques factures, se qui représente énormément de temps pour quelque chose qui devrait être calculé automatiquement dans leur système. Ma collègue s’est fait raccroché au nez par un agent. Le personnel n’est pas qualifié et le service est extrêmement lent. Pour ceux et celles qui veulent perdre leur temps au téléphone pendant des heures, je vous souhaite bonne chance avec Square.
Small business owners !!!
I am a small business owner that is completely grateful for the square app . It allows my customers to book appointments with ease. Combined with the point of sale card reader allows my business to accept debit /credit & tap features for payments. Hands down best ever !!!
Bluetooth reader
Super inconsistent with the Bluetooth connection, i have two store locations and I am constantly trying to figure out the issue as it is always different. I have contacted the tech support team more than a handful of times and the issue is resolved less than half the time. Asking my clients to either take out cash or do an e transfer for services is not only embarrassing and inconvenient for my customers but also so hard to keep track of for my own tax purposes. I even get a lot of push back about even having to pay for tax if im not taking a debit or credit transaction. The app itself is okay. I’ve been using square for about 5 years now and with the growth of my business i find it painful to continue using software that only works for my business half the time. I also pay for the upgraded version to be able to use for bookings on both locations and not once have i been offered any sort of compensation for the continued issue i have with square.
Multi view
I’m trying to book appts quickly & effectively, but I cannot see the schedule of my other esthetician, so I’m trying to book clients but my resources are not available. It’s necessary to see all resources using on a day a quick glance, so I’m not wasting time toggling back & forth. That leaves me having to remember who is in which room as I’m looking for an appt for my client. It’s wasting my time, and it needs to be better. When I’m not in the APP and I’m on my PC looking a square through my login, I can see everything perfectly. That needs to translate onto the app. Thanks for your consideration of my feedback.
Meilleur outil de travaill
Deja 4 ans que je travail avec Square et je suis toujours aussi satisfaite
App for Mac desk top
I can’t seem to find this app for my Mac desk top
Mode sombre
J’adore cette application malgré quelques lags parfois! Mais la version sombre serait vraiment un must… svp
Where is the support/ help
I was really excited when I first sent my application to your organisation I’ve had many offers from different organisations like Shopify and Tradera and Google Asti open my own shop online and after careful consideration I chose you guys but I feel as if this one makes it sound like you’ll take care of everything as long as I sign up for it but I’ve had no help whatsoever and I feel as though this particular app is more about appointments, I’m here trying to build a website and I don’t feel as if we’re in the same page I need some support with this before launch day please have somebody email me or call my mobile as a matter of urgency as I really want this to work I know my niche is one that’s high in business and extremely lucrative but I also know that my website is far from ready. Then I’d be able to rate you honestly and fairly so far I’m still excited but definitely need some support and assistance. Thanks 🙏 SW.
My opinion
It’s sooo goodd
Love square
Ive used square for a while now for my salon. It’s really nice, sometimes a but confusing though with the website, but I like the app a lot.
It’s waste ,don’t waste your energy
Don’t waste your time on this garbage
Great Booking system
The only thing I’d like to change is when you get a notification and you tap on the booking to confirm it doesn’t take you to the date you have to manually scroll to the date and time on the booking notification. Apart from that it’s been great. If you have any issues the square team are prompt in helping you. I’ve just changed over from get Timely which was very expensive and you get the same from square but at an affordable price.
あともう少し
①祝日で営業時間が変わる場合、予約の設定ができるようにして欲しい。 ②作成できるwebpageの商品画像が表示できるようにして欲しい。特にモバイル表示。同様にgoogle からの予約リンクの場合もモバイルで表示される予約メニューが貧相に見えるのと、予約スケジュールが1週間表示で見れると、顧客も見やすいのでそういう設定もできるようにしてほしいです。 あと、ページ下部のinstagramへのリンクが非常にわかりにくいです。
2.5 stars
Overall effective and I do appreciate that, but there are many problems that shouldn’t exist. Lack of insight or poor design or both. Ex: closing a specific day shouldn’t reset your hours of business. Resetting hours of business is annoying with the “scroll wheel” function. It’s cumbersome and time consuming. Let me type it in. Some of my clients are repeating client. I set my calendar in 6 week increments, but clients can schedule a repeating appointment in perpetuity. I like the simplicity of the calendar and scheduling feature, but it’s ridged and very beneath what people expect of apps in 2025. Ease and Functionality are what’s missing. Basic details.
I use for my business and I am very pleased
A,axing I will use them until I find something better .. until then
Buggy
Love square for keeping my business organized but the appointments app, invoices app and square app for all my payment tracking are all buggy and don’t track any information between apps. I have one account, but all three apps treat me like a different customer and don’t save any of my customers or appointments or accepted estimates between apps. But I need all three since they all have different offerings that I need from each. Very very frustrating and makes sending estimates and invoices much more time consuming than it needs to be. I also started a paid membership and the apps all just didn’t recognize the change in membership so now they have my money but I’m stuck with the free version. Great idea that they had with these apps but they failed to execute
Such a help!
I love my square appointments app it has helped me take client bookings on the go straight from my phone anywhere and helps keep all those important client details for me on file
Annoying
For whatever reason it never lets me rebook an appointment, doesn’t ever let me save.. it’s becoming a huge problem now and thinking going to have to change booking systems as I’m unable to add appointments

Poor service
I’ve been dealing with Square for a long time and have an ongoing issue that seems imposable to resolve. I’ve been passed on to the 10th person now and I am at about the 2 week mark. Most likely moving on to a different pos and booking software. Good luck.
Game Changer
Have been using square for a long time on my mostly mobile business. When I recently decided to take bookings for a fixed location I decided to set up appointments. The ease in which people can now book in has seen an increase in revenue. The app has lost a star due to not supporting the card surcharge like the standard square app. So I do not charge from the appointments app which leaves appointments not officially closed out. Hopefully this little change could be made very soon.
キャンセル待ち機能
キャンセル料が発生しないキャンセルポリシーのユースケースの場合、キャンセルが発生した際、 同時に機会損失を最小化し、販売機会（決済機会）を最大化する為、「キャンセル待ち」機能の実装を強く希望します。
Review
There are a few things this app could use to really improve. One being that we could pull the appt to make it shorter or longer without going in and editing. When you want to rebook on a desktop the top appts come up automatically but not the mobile app which most of us use. I also find there are fees for everything. Positive note: Cashing ppl out on the square stand is seamless, and the double reminders are fantastic.
Love it
Been using this app as a Hairstylist for a couple years now and I could never go back to another app Sends reminders to my clients and so easy to use
Limited reporting
No options for appointment price reporting for the past only future!!?!
Excellent
The best app ever
It was perfect, until today
Squareup paywalled the google sync feature. Now to have my appointments appear in my normal calendar it’s £29 per month. App is fantastic, works brilliantly and once used to is easy to use but as a sole trader who is recovering from two years of lockdown £29 per month for one of the most useful features is too much when I don’t need the vast majority of other ‘plus’ features
Appointment
Good app, need to be able to change message sent with the appointment confirmation
Esthetician Approved
I love how square makes booking clients and keeping track of my income an absolute joy. I do pay for premium, and enjoy being able to have my clients confirm their appointments. It has taken any possible no shows to nearly zero percent. They’re pretty quick with customer service if needed and I love being able to take a percentage of my transactions and holding it in a separate account for tax time and whatever else I want. 10/10 recommend!
Beware shut down without a reason
They will shut your site down without a reason
So far so good.
I’ve only started setting it up, but so far I’m really liking the system, easy to use, easy to update, professional. Recommend for new small businesses
Edit appointment before accepting
Such a great app but why is it not possible to edit an appointment before accepting it??? Always have to use the web version for that…
Perfect for my ice hut rental business!
Works great for booking people and taking deposits and so I don’t double book people and I can keep track of all my earnings and important stuff.
Unnecessary mandatory access
What most of people don’t realize is this app makes you to allow it to access to mic, even though you don’t want to use those features which they say it is for.
rebooking
Hi my feed back is , I wish we could make rebooking after sale without it going back to calendar . Leisa
Stops taking appointments
It sometimes just stops working and won’t let me create appointments? Can anyone help with this? Turning off and on does. Not help. Can’t make any new appointments? Also, if you work on zoom, set location to Customers otherwise your personal home address will be sent out to clients.
