FAQ
Can I use Square Team on a computer?
Yes. You can run Square Team on a PC using an Android emulator or access it through a web browser on your desktop. Running the app on a computer gives you a larger display, easier keyboard input, and the option to keep it open alongside other windows while you work.
What if I work for two employers using Square Team?
Square Team currently requires you to log out of one employer account before logging in to another. This means you cannot switch between employers without signing out and back in, which limits the convenience of checking both schedules at once. Using the app on a desktop doesn't change this limitation, though it may make the login process feel less disruptive when you're already seated at a computer.
Do I need my employer to set up specific information for me to see pay details?
Yes. The app displays information only if your employer has entered it into Square's system: hourly rates, scheduled shifts, and other payroll details. If your employer has only entered rostered hours without rates or benefits, the app will show your schedule but not estimated or actual earnings. Check with your manager about what information has been configured in your workplace setup.
Is there a cost to use Square Team?
No, Square Team is free to download and use. Your employer manages it as part of their Square subscription, so there's no charge to you as an employee.
