## What is MedZeit?

**MedZeit** is the time-tracking app for physicians and medical professionals who need reliable shift, on-call, and pay documentation.

Log hours, overtime, and surcharges in seconds - then instantly review compliance, workload, and compensation.

**Why MedZeit:**
- **Fast shift logging:** Date/time, breaks, notes, and medical-duty categories (on-call, phone, night/weekend/holiday work, and more).
- **Live timer for active duty:** Start, pause, save, or discard with one flow.
- **Automatic pay calculation:** Base rate, category rates, on-call logic (percentage or flat), plus all surcharge types.
- **Home with smart duty context:** Forecast, extra-hours card, comparison, and “Time to recharge”. If duty/on-call is logged or running, the card stays in duty mode.
- **Insights that matter:** Configurable compliance hints (defaults e.g. 10h/day, 60h/week, 11h rest—informational only), contractual limits, earnings heatmap, workload analysis (including sums of optional units), wellbeing tied to your weekly hours limit.
- **Flexible entries view:** Day, week, and timesheet table; sort, duplicate, delete by day/week; optional **units** per entry (e.g. RVU-style) for your records.
- **Your category labels:** Rename categories in Settings—they appear across the app and in exports (stable category IDs under the hood).
- **Export-ready:** PDF time sheet (optional name), CSV, yearly PDF, JSON; column presets (all / compact international / custom) and per-column toggles; optional units in export.
- **Optional backup layer:** Encrypted Firebase backup + JSON import as in-app purchase.
- **English wording:** In Settings, choose **medical terminology** (International/EU vs. **US hospital**) so labels match how you work—applied consistently across the app.

**Also included:**
- German & English; when using **English**, optional **medical terminology**: *International (EU)* or *US (hospital)* for consistent US-style wording across the app where applicable
- Portrait-first UI with landscape support
- No patient data stored
- Optional client-side encrypted cloud backup. Zero-knowledge privacy!

### 1.1.7 — 2026-05-11

We are always working to build the best possible version of MedZeit to respect your time and privacy. In this update:

Global Launch: MedZeit is now officially available for doctors in Europe and the rest of the world!!  

Regular duty (Regeldienst) — Track regular shifts separately from overtime and statistics that focus on extra hours/pay projections.

Clear actual vs target — See weekly and monthly actual vs contracted regular hours where we surface Regeldienst, in compact, on-brand summaries.

Correction flow — Review and edit Regeldienst entries without mixing them into the main entries list used for overtime-focused views.

Smarter saving — Long regular-duty shifts past your daily target split into regular duty plus overtime automatically, with upfront hints (and confirmation when editing).

Overtime timing — Overtime from a split counts from the full hour (e.g. 16:00), not fractional cutoffs.

Onboarding — More consistent typography, spacing, and styling aligned with the rest of MedZeit.

Reliability & polish — Break duration in New Entry shows correctly again.


Minor bug fixes to keep the UI as sharp as a scalpel.
