Why Can't I Clock In?

Modified on Sat, 26 Sep at 10:50 PM

Most clock-in problems are location. Turn on location for NextCrew and stand at the job site. If it still won't work, tell your agency so your hours are still recorded.

Do this

1Check that you're at the job site, not the parking lot or the building next door.
2Turn on location for NextCrew in your phone's settings. Choose While Using the App or Always.
3Check your shift is in the Confirmed tab. You can only clock in to confirmed shifts.
4Update the app from the App Store or Google Play.
5Try without Wi-Fi, using mobile data instead.

Only your agency can

  • Clock you in, or add your time for you.
  • Fix a wrong job address.

Message your agency in the app, or use the phone number or email they gave you.

Other ways people ask this

  • I can't clock in.
  • It says I'm not at the job site but I am.
  • The app won't let me punch in for my shift.
  • I can't clock in since the update.
  • My supervisor can't clock us in.

If your agency gives you its own branded app, it is powered by NextCrew and works the same way.
