One shift, from clock-in to invoice

  1. 1

    Tap a job to clock in

    Each place you work is a tile. One tap starts the clock, another switches jobs mid-shift, and breaks pause the timer.

  2. 2

    Add tips as you clock out

    Tips, mileage, parking, a flat event fee. The clock-out sheet asks while you still remember, not on Sunday night.

  3. 3

    Send the invoice

    Hours, overtime, mileage and expenses become invoice lines, with tax on services only. Share the PDF by text or email.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes, everything is free during early access.

Do I need an account?

No. Open the app and add your first job. There's no sign-up and no email to give.

What if I lose my phone?

Your data lives only on your device, so it goes with the phone. Save a backup now and then from More, then Save backup, and keep the file in your email or cloud drive. Restoring it on a new phone brings everything back.

How does it handle overtime?

Set it per job: overtime after a number of hours a day, a week, or both, and the rate (1.5× by default). Daily overtime is counted first, so no hour is paid as overtime twice.

Can my accountant use it?

Export any week, month or year as a spreadsheet (CSV) with hours, pay, tips, mileage and expenses on every shift.

Which currencies does it support?

US, Canadian and Australian dollars, euros, pounds, Mexican pesos, Brazilian reais and Argentine pesos, with miles or kilometres.

Your next shift starts with one tap.
