Team messaging, in the same app
Channels, direct messages, mentions and files, next to the schedule. One app less to install, and no more separate WhatsApp group.
14 days free, full access. No credit card required.
Mentions, to reach the right people
Type @ to notify one person, a whole section or the people on shift right now.
- One person or a section
- @onshift: whoever is on shift right now
- A notification for each person mentioned
A channel for every team
One channel for the whole venue, one per section, or for a few people. Linked to a section, it adds its members by itself.
- Section members added by themselves
- A pinned message at the top
- Direct messages, one to one
Private conversations right in the app
Work stays in Shifta, private life on WhatsApp. Everyone writes to a colleague without giving out their number or contacts.
- Work and private life kept apart
- No number to share
- Seen by the two people only
And in messaging
Threads and reactions
Reply in a message’s thread, react with an emoji, search the channel.
A notification for every message
On the phone, and by e-mail for whoever wants it.
Direct messages stay private
A direct message is seen only by its two people.
Across Switzerland, they trust us
Before, it was sheets of paper pinned behind a door. Now the staff organise themselves and swap their shifts. For me, it means far fewer hours spent on schedules.

Frequently asked questions about messaging
What to know before writing to your team in Shifta.
Do we need another app?
No. Messaging is in the Shifta app, on iPhone, Android and computer, next to the schedule.
How do I write to the whole team at once?
Create a channel without a section: the whole venue is in it. Write, then pin the message so it stays at the top.
Who can create channels?
People with the right to manage channels, managers by default. Everyone can write in their channels.
Do newcomers land in the right channels?
Yes. Someone invited into a section joins the channels linked to it, and a channel without a section welcomes everyone.
