Member App - Smart Shifts

The Smart Shifts feature in the Member App facilitates to narrow down the search of the specific Released Shifts required by the member by providing the appropriate Shift Distance Range/Filters.

Members can view the Released Shifts with the Shift Distance Range filter provided independently without adding any other filters to meet their travel requirements.

When the Smart Shifts filter(s) are applied, the Released Shifts screen shows Released Shift numbers, Shift(s) Filtered numbers, names of all the filters applied, and the number of filters applied on the filter badge icon. The member can add/ edit/ remove the existing shift distance range/filters 😊.
