What people like
- Easy to use and simple
- Secure messaging is very helpful
- Good for scheduling shifts
What they complain about
- Keeps crashing and freezing often
- Login issues keep you out
- Takes too long to load

Secure communications
Our hospital asked us to stop using WhatsApp. We use Petal and the group finds it helpful to be integrated with our scheduling and hospital on call.
Refus de fermer mon compte
Bien que la politique des applications de Apple exige qu’on puisse résilier un compte à partir d’une application, celle de Petal ne le fait pas. En plus, ils refusent de fermer mon compte lorsque je les contacte par le « Chat ».
iPad
Bonjour, l’application ne s’adapte pas si on change l’orientation de l’iPad. Par exemple, en passant de vertical vers l’horizontale, l’image reste toujours en verticale. Pouvez-vous y remédier, svp? Merci
À améliorer
Se déconnecte sans cesse. Login toujours nécessaire. Perd la connexion avec le serveur. L’application doit toujours être réinstallée….
Ce qu'il manque !
Il serait fort apprécié que l'application ou la plateforme web nous permette de sélectionner plusieurs journées à la fois pour mettre nos disponibilités / non disponibilités . Il faut présentement sélectionner à tour de rôle chaque journée et la raison de la non disponibilité. Cela deviendrait beaucoup plus convivial de pouvoir le faire en sélectionnant plusieurs journées qui sont non contiguës . Merci!
Review
Very useful and friendly user.
Lots of bugs
The app doesn’t work well! Many times we have to log out and log in again and again!
Dr. Sinha
Great app, recommend to everyone
Glitchy
Frequent freezing requiring to restart the app. Makes it frustrating to use
Excellent
Great tool for practitioners
Would be great to be able to login
Can’t login on the app, therefore renders it useless. Unacceptable for an app I pay hundreds of dollars a year for.
Petal md
Tres bien
Buggy
When I’m swiping through available shifts on marketplace by date, if I switch out of petalmd to look at my calendar (for example) and switch back to petalmd it refreshes everytime back to the beginning forcing me to re-swipe to get back to the shift date I was looking at. Please fix this very inefficient and inconvenient constant refreshing.
Love it
Very useful across our hospital
Spinning wheel of death
Petal program itself is fine, in general works well for our department. However the app is terrible. It almost never loads properly on the first attempt, and I frequently give up after repeated attempts and just use the website. Thankfully it actually syncs with my apple calendar so that I can see what I’m doing every day
Useful app!
Works well
Freezes
Has always frozen and crashed randomly, but since the update a week ago, need to open, hard close, and restart app at least 3 times every time in order to access schedule. And today it won’t open at all.
Landscape PLEASE!!!
(Ipad version would be so much better)
Bugs
The app doesn’t work, bugs all the time. I have to use the desktop website
Learning curve
Lots to recommend: stable and comprehensive. Eventual success depends on buy-in from all users.
it functions…. barely
It doesn’t bode well when the app asks you to update, you comply and update, restart the app and it asks you to update again. when you go to the app store it says you’ve updated. I am not impressed with this app, mostly because its user interface is not user friendly and is not designed with the client in mind.
Nouvel interface génial
L'application est très simple a utilisée et très utile. Nous sommes alertés des changements dans l'horaires en tout temps. La messagerie sécurisée est aussi appréciée par l'équipe. Merci!
Stuck at loading
Useless. How can a simple calendar app not load when opened? Have tried to update reinstall with no results.
Nouvelle interface
La nouvelle interface est nettement mieux que la version précédente. Après la mise à jour l'application plantait au démarrage. Le problème disparaît après un redémarrage du téléphone. Cette app sera géniale quand il sera possible de voir les horaires des collègues en plus de la sienne.
Pas facile à comprendre.
Beaucoup moins fonctionnelle que le site internet. Ne permet pas de voir les listes de garde à venir dans les autres spécialités. À retravailler
A great app for busy docs
Highly recommended
Garbage
90% of the time, it’s stuck on the loading pinwheel screen when you open the app and it’s always stuck there. Force closing and restarting doesn’t make it work. Updating the app doesn’t make it work. Every time I open the app I’m praying that it’s not frozen.
ISO 8
Need to be compatible with IPhone 6
Very Helpful!
Combined with the desktop scheduler, this app is very helpful
Hate it
So buggy and unreliable.

Très bonne app !
App is very buggy
Poor functionality. At present continuously getting a prompt that a password is required I even when the password is entered, and with app installed it’s impossible to log on via the site.
Fantastic tool!!!
Easy to use. Just perfect!
So buggy
So buggy how is this app company still in business
