## What is Frontline?

Frontline is the shift calendar built for first responders - Firefighters, EMS and Police.

Set up your rotation in about 30 seconds, then see your whole month at a glance. Frontline knows the schedules crews actually work - 24/48, 48/96, 24/72, 1/3/2/3, Kelly, Pitman, 4-on/4-off, DuPont and more - so you pick yours and you're done. No account. No setup headache.

Not on a rotation? Straight days, a 9/80, a regular work week - Fire Marshals, inspectors, detectives, SROs, retirees, spouses and office staff all have a setup, or you can skip work days entirely and just use the calendar.

BUILT FOR THE WAY YOU WORK

- Large month calendar. Your on-duty days, events and reminders at a glance, in a dark design made for night shift.
- Shift trades. Log who's covering, track who owes who, and text a clean trade card that makes it obvious to everyone involved.
- Events and quick adds. Court, training, overtime, appointments, sick, vacation - color-coded, with reminders that fire before your shift.
- Home-screen widgets. Your month or your week, always on.
- Hours tracked. Log OT, sick, vacation and comp by the day, and see the totals.
- Career tracking. Career shift count, rank history, milestones, and the day you clear probation.
- Print and export. A clean PDF of your month, or send your shifts to your other calendars.
- Dark and light. Night-shift ready either way.

FRONTLINE PRO

- Leave balances. Vacation, sick and comp counted down in shifts as you use them and up on every payday. Set your own accrual rate and cap, and get warned before you hit the ceiling and stop earning.
- Vacation bids. Tap every day you picked, across the whole year, and stamp them all in one pass.
- Calendar sync. Keep your shifts on your Google or Apple calendar so your family sees them without you texting a screenshot.
- More calendar views. Week, day timeline and agenda.
- Certifications. CPR, ACLS, HazMat and the rest, counting down in shifts, with reminders before anything lapses.
- Incident and exposure log. A fast, private, date-stamped record of the calls that matter - cancer presumption, bloodborne exposure, a court date years out. Export it as a clean PDF.
- Partner schedule. Your next day off together, and every day you both work.
- Month and day widgets, unlimited share cards, and PDF exports by week, day or year.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Everything lives on your device. No account, no tracking, no servers. Your schedule is yours.

### 5/5 — Fire calendar

*2026-08-03*

Good looking app haven’t dug real deep into it but good to know there’s something out there with an unorthodox shift schedule good job for the people that came up with this loving it with just a little bit I’ve dealt with

### 5/5 — Best app on the market

*2026-08-02*

Love the app, I’ve used a handful different apps to track shift schedule over the years and this one is by far the best app I’ve found when it comes to ease of use, customization and visual appeal.

### 5/5 — Great for organizing!

*2026-07-29*

This app helps so much with organizing my shifts and trades/AWR’s - thanks!!

### 5/5 — Works well for Phoenix Fire Dept

*2026-07-29*

I used to use Google Calendar. This calendar makes it easy to see my AWRs without logging in every time. I share it with my daughter so she sees when I’m working and I can also keep track of my OT spots and compare it to my paycheck hours. Best part about it. Thanks brother!

### 5/5 — GREAT APP

*2026-07-28*

I have been in the Fire and EMS service for 20 years. I have used different apps to track my shifts, trades, days off and to look at other departments schedules. This app even tracks exposures. The app is easy to navigate and I would highly recommend to anyone working Fire/EMS! If only they could make an app to help our admin! Phwewh!

### 5/5 — Best Shift Calendar App

*2026-07-27*

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Hands down the best shift calendar app I've ever used! I've tried several shift calendar apps over the years, and this one is by far my favorite. It's incredibly user-friendly, reliable, and has an impressive variety of shift schedules available.

One of my favorite features is that it includes the 1-3-2-3 schedule, which has been especially helpful as some departments transition to that rotation. Being able to quickly and accurately see my work schedule makes planning my personal life so much easier.

I also love that you can add your partner's shift schedule alongside your own. As someone married to a firefighter, it's incredibly convenient to keep track of both of our schedules in one place. It makes coordinating family time, appointments, and everyday life so much easier.

I also really appreciate how many different departments and shift patterns are included. It's clear that a lot of thought and effort went into making this app useful for first responders and other shift workers.

If you work a rotating schedule—or your spouse or partner does—I can't recommend this app enough. It's an essential tool that I use all the time. Thank you for creating such an outstanding app!

### 5/5 — Optimal shift tracker

*2026-07-27*

I have been using my own person calendar to log AWRs, shift trades, exposure, etc. and find it difficult to search or find previously added information. This app does just that and more.  Being able to have it all at your fingertips and searchable makes you feel more in control of your own AWR’s, trades and so much more. I’m so happy to have come cross this app. I will recommend this to anyone in the field. This is definitely a must app to have.

### 5/5 — Easy to Use and Comprehensive

*2026-07-26*

This calendar is so user friendly and syncs with all major calendars. Great for first responders and their families as well. No more need for families to guess when you get off shift or work next. Tracking exposures is next level and allows easy tracking in the event you need your records in the future.

### 5/5 — Best shift calendar

*2026-07-25*

Way better than the IAFF app. More interactive and more options to customize for your needs. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Best Fire Calendar app

*2026-07-25*

I’ve been using the IAFF Pro Calendar app for years, but the new Frontline Calendar app has completely won me over. It’s impressive that a brand-new app launched with such a polished, easy-to-use interface. Everything feels faster, cleaner, and more intuitive than what I was used to.

What really makes Frontline stand out is the pricing. For just a $15 lifetime Pro membership, you get premium features without having to worry about another annual renewal. Meanwhile, IAFF Pro requires an ongoing yearly subscription. Frontline delivers a better user experience at an incredible value, and it’s an easy recommendation for anyone looking for a modern firefighter shift calendar.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.7.0 — 2026-08-27

New: Year at a glance (Pro). Your entire year on one screen - every shift in your colors, overtime and vacation glowing through, trades in purple - with the numbers up top: shifts worked, OT days, vacation, trades. Tap any month to jump the calendar there, and share the new MY YEAR ON SHIFT poster carrying your name, department and your year's stats.

Quick adds can now color the whole day. Turn on "Color the whole day" for a category like Overtime and the day fills like a shift instead of just a small bar - matched to your shift color if you want, on the widgets too. Asked for by a member; built the same week.

Marking a day worked now tracks the hours too. Use Change duty for an extra shift and Frontline offers to log the hours in one tap. Remove the day later and it offers to take those hours back out - and it warns you before stacking one day past 24 hours.

The "ENDS 8A" marker on the morning after an overnight is now your choice, set right where you enter the hours. Off by default - your next day reads as a clean day off unless you want the carryover shown.

And the day page now totals what you logged - "Total hours tracked today" sits right under the day's summary.

Have a request? Email support@FrontlineCalendar.com - I read every one, and the last 3 updates were mostly because members wrote in. - Kyle

### 1.6.0 — 2026-08-23

New preset: 24/48 with a Kelly day. Work 24 on / 48 off with a recurring Kelly day off on a held weekday? The new preset lays out the full 21-day pattern from one setup - pick your Kelly weekday and go. Built for a member who emailed; added the same week.

The Week view can now roll with you. Flip on "Rolling 7 days" in Settings and the week screen always starts on today - the seven days ahead of you, not the half of a Sunday week already behind you.

"Color other shifts" now paints every view. Turn it on and your days off show which crew is working - it used to be month-only; now the Week, Day and Agenda views match.

The Day timeline stopped hiding your all-day items. Payday and all-day events used to sit at the top of the timeline where you only found them by scrolling up; now they are in view the moment you open a day, and slide away when you scroll.

Light mode fixes throughout: day numbers stay readable on black shift cells, the Career page header, and a partner-schedule toggle that was nearly invisible.

And the user guide's support answer now comes straight from me: email support@FrontlineCalendar.com - I built this app, and I read every one. - Kyle

### 1.5.0 — 2026-08-21

New for Police and dispatch: rotating schedules. If your work days slide forward on a set interval - 4 on, 3 off, moving up 2 days every 28 - Frontline now lays out the whole rotation from one setup. Tap the new Rotating 4/10s preset under Police, or turn on "My schedule rotates over time" in the custom builder and set your own slide. Built for a 911 dispatcher who had been entering his shifts by hand for four years.

Milestones got a page of their own. Every shift badge with the date you reached it, your 5-year service anniversaries, clearing probation, and every promotion - all in one list on the Career tab, each one shareable any time. Missed sharing shift #1,000 by a day? It is right there. Promotion cards now carry imagery matched to the rank - Engineers get the pump panel, Captains get the radio - and the Career page opens with a hero image for your service.

Your partner's work days now show on the home-screen widgets, not just in the app.

The calendar is much faster. Switching between month, week, day and agenda views could hang for seconds if you had linked Google or Apple calendars; it is instant now, and month swiping is smoother.

New shift colors: gold, black and silver, for departments whose shifts run black, red and gold - asked for by a member, added the same day.

Plus: iPhone forms no longer hide the notes field behind the keyboard.

### 1.4.0 — 2026-08-18

Kelly schedule added to EMS. Ambulance crews asked for it, and it turned out Frontline already had it - it was just sitting under the Fire tab. On, off, on, off, on, then four days off. Tap EMS and it is right there.

New: the 9/80. Nine-hour days Monday through Friday, one weekday off every other week, and an eight-hour day the week you do work it. Eighty hours a fortnight. Fire Marshals, inspectors, detectives, SROs and anyone else on a 9/80 can set it up in about thirty seconds. Friday is the default day off, but any weekday works, and Frontline asks which of the two weeks you are in so the very first month is right.

Fixed: changing your work schedule in Settings could quietly put you back on Monday through Friday. If you worked Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and went in only to move your start time, pressing Confirm reset your days. They stay put now.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-08-06

See your partner's schedule on your own calendar. Their work days show right on your month, week, day and agenda views, so "are we both off?" is one look instead of two apps. Built for spouses.

40 Hour - Fire Marshals, training officers, inspectors, detectives and SROs who work straight days now get their own setup, and keep the Career tab, certifications, trades and the incident log that used to disappear.

Repeating events: change or delete ONE day. Move this Thursday's practice without touching every other Thursday, or drop a single week you are away.

Edit event is a lot faster. Every setting shows its own answer at a glance - "Weekly on Wed", "9:00 AM" - and opens only when you tap it.

New user guide in Settings, in plain language: what everything does, in the words your shop actually uses.

Plus: the month widget legend now follows your own wording, a faster year view in the multi-day selector, and a pile of smaller fixes.
