## What is Crew Call?

Manage your time on-set with Crew Call, the only time tracking and invoicing app purpose-built for freelance film crew.

Track pre, shoot and post days for multiple jobs. Keep tabs on equipment used. Generate weekly timesheets or custom reports. Review your hours and income by week, month, quarter or year. Record call and wrap times for a whole department with Multi User Mode.

Crew Call has been created from the ground up by Bradley Andrew, a freelance VTR Operator / DIT from Melbourne, Australia. Made by Film Crew for Film Crew!

FEATURE OVERVIEW

WORK DAYS - Add work days one by one or set up your week in advance by adding multiple pre, shoot and post days with a single tap. Log call times, wrap times, travel times and meal breaks. Record equipment used on a day-to-day basis. Quickly note camera wrap and drive away times.

JOBS - Create jobs of any length, from two day TVCs to six month Feature Films. Set up jobs as you see fit, customise night loadings, minimum day length and pension contributions. Add work days to jobs for a running tally of hours worked and income earned.

TIMESHEETS - Weekly Timesheets can be generated for single crew members or a whole department. Crew Call’s timesheets are modelled on real-life templates provided by the accounts department to ensure they fit in seamlessly with your production.

REPORTS - Generate PDF/CSV Reports for an entire job or for individual work days. This is a great way to share a complete breakdown of each day’s labour, equipment and notes. Reports can be customised depending on their purpose.

OVERVIEWS - Browse through weeks, months, quarters or years to get a better understanding of your work life. Custom timelines and charts give you a visual overview of hours worked, labour income and equipment earnings.

MULTI USER SUPPORT - This allows one crew member to record call, wrap and travel times for an entire department. Essential for long form jobs where time keeping is usually allocated to one person. Easily share PDF Reports or Timesheets with the production office or other crew members.

INCOME CALCULATION - Crew Call will automatically estimate your earnings based on work hours. Film sets all over the world calculate their overtime differently so we let you create your own overtime calculations. What is your daily base rate? How many hours of double time do you work until triple time kicks in? 1.0x, 1.5x, 2.0x and 3.0x are supported. Set default overtime rates or apply them to individual jobs.

HALF DAYS, FLAT RATE & DAILY BUMP - Set Half Days based on a percentage of your base rate. Use a Flat Rate when you need to override normal income calculations. Step up to a different role with Daily Bump.

EQUIPMENT MANAGEMENT - Add unlimited equipment items to your equipment list. Record daily or weekly equipment rates. Create categories to stay organised. Equipment inventories of any size are supported. Edit easily with CSV Import/Export.

EQUIPMENT IMPORT - Download the Crew Call CSV Template to set up your equipment list with spreadsheet software. Perfect for crew who have large equipment inventories. Import the edited CSV to Crew Call and all of your new Equipment and Categories will be added automatically.

EQUIPMENT EXPORT - Export equipment by category or all at once. Easily share your Equipment Lists with other crew members via AirDrop or Email. Ideal if you have someone else running your gear, van or truck.

DATA PRIVACY - Jobs and Work Days that you create with Crew Call are stored on a secure, local database within your iPhone. This ensures that your personal information is kept safe and sound.

CONTINUOUS DEVELOPMENT - Crew Call is constantly being improved to keep up with the changing demands of our industry. Is there a feature that will make your life easier? Please get in touch and I’ll do my best to make it a reality.

### 5/5 — Absolutely love it

*2025-10-07*

Took me a while to find an app that would work for me. This works so well. Clean and easy to set up and use. Could you please set up half days with the ability to add overtime. Also invoice type would be a handy option as clients often request PAYG in bold letters in the title.

Keep up the great work you legend!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for the kind words. I’m glad to hear you’re making good use of Crew Call!

The title of an invoice can be easily changed, both for Invoice Templates and on an invoice to invoice basis. You can even use Invoice Templates so that each Job creates two invoices, one as PAYG for Labour and another as Tax Invoice for Equipment. 

Please reach out via the Contact Us Form in the app for feature requests. It’d be good to hear more about your use case for overtime on half days. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Must Have for Film Crew

*2025-03-17*

I work mostly in TVCs and this app is perfect to keep track of my hours and the gear I used. Shows me an overtime breakdown with the correct penalties, flags when I might break turnaround, etc. The invoicing features are super useful, I do all of my invoices directly in the app and can easily send them from my phone right after a job. The amount of time it saves me makes the yearly subscription well worth it.

### 5/5 — Tool I use daily

*2025-02-02*

An amazing app that has had a lot of thought and care put into it. A must have for film crew!

### 5/5 — Excellent app to make time tracking and invoicing in the Film industry easier.

*2024-12-06*

Brilliant app for anyone in the film industry. 
It’s simple to use, is updated regularly and if necessary, support gets back to you promptly. You put in the details and it does the calculations for you, overtime, kms, superannuation. You then generate and send a clear, detailed invoice, that makes you look far more professional than you feel. 
I cannot recommend this app enough. If paperwork and invoicing is your nightmare get Crew Call and save a tonne of time and stress.

### 5/5 — My life just got a little simpler

*2024-08-18*

I would go as far as calling it an essential tool for any freelancer in the film industry.
It’s more accurate and faster at calculating OT, NL, GST and so on compared to me and my note pad, calculator and that vague memory of last week’s shoot.
Love it and will keep recommending it!

### 2/5 — Completely overpriced

*2024-05-19*

$70 a year! Are you kidding me. When it was at $40, that was barley acceptable. I’ve been using for a few years, it’s ok. When I originally purchased the app, it was the best thing on the market, but it’s still not great by any means. You got to work around some of it’s limitations to get the correct information in. The updates have been helpful, but the app is far from perfect. $70 is totally greedy. The app must have been developed by film tools.

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that you feel the recent price increase is unacceptable. The price changes in Q1 ‘24 were updated to reflect Crew Call’s new invoicing functionality as it’s no longer just a Time Tracking App for Film Crew but also an Invoicing App for Film Crew.

I agree, Crew Call is definitely not perfect but I work hard to make it customizable to maximize its compatibility for Overtime Calculations all over the world. To my knowledge there is nothing else that offers the flexibility that Crew Call offers. If something isn’t working for you please reach out via the Contact Us Form in the app and I will endeavor to build what is required to make it work for you. I’d love to hear more about the limitations you are working around so that I can make it even more useful going forward.

Also, definitely not developed by Film Tools. Crew Call has been built from the ground up by me, Bradley Andrew, an Indie iOS Developer and VTR Operator from Melbourne, Australia. Made by Film Crew, for Film Crew.

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2022-11-26*

Amazing. Saves me so much time!!!!

### 5/5 — Compulsory app for film/tv/commercial crew

*2022-08-17*

This app is a complete game changer. I use this app to track all my job hours, overtimes, travel times and also the button that adds automatic afternoon tea at the end of the day. Being able to save all my rates and gear rental so you can automatically add it to a job. 
The new feature of being able to track your distance driven makes log booking for my work vehicle so easy come tax time.
I use it mostly as a freelancer, but when I’ve done long-form work it makes weekly timesheets very easy. 
Also the creator of the app is very easily contacted and always updating the app with new features.

### 5/5 — Makes The Invoicing Stage of a Job a Breeze

*2022-07-11*

This app has made my life so much easier. I’ve been working a bunch of TVC’s back to back and logging the times and having it calculate overtime has saved me so much time when it comes to invoicing. No more half filled out start and end times in the notes app and spending hours after the job doing math. I’ve recommended it to everybody I work with! Thanks so much for making this, I don’t know how I lived without it before!

### 5/5 — Great functionality and easy to use

*2021-12-02*

Crew call has been a game-changer for my time tracking on set, but has really come into its own when invoicing for commercials and dailies. The straightforward  and editable OT rules take all of the stress out of billing for weird hours. The developer is also pretty active in improving and adding to the app. Well worth thr subscription!
