### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-01-26, version 1.3.1*

Ignore the one star reviews to change the currency on free version simply start the timer and then enter your hourly wage. You cannot edit the wage before starting the timer. Fricking boomers shouldn’t be allowed phones.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2019-12-27, version 1.3.0*

This is a great app. Exactly what I was looking for.

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2019-09-09*

.

### 2/5 — It does nothing

*2019-07-25, version 1.3.0*

If you want an app that calculates 10 dollars per hour and nothing else then this app is for you. Maybe just use your calculator.

### 1/5 — Can’t change pay rate

*2019-05-21*

Why else would I buy this. If you make $10 an hour it’s perfect. Since I don’t get to check out the app why would I ever buy it for $1.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time.

*2018-02-15*

The only feature that you would use this for is locked.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2016-01-17*

The app is a stupid waste of time. It is set at $10 an hour, unless you pay to upgrade it.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2015-04-11*

Can't change hourly pay rate without buying full version. Waste of my time.

### 1/5 — Terrible.

*2015-01-25, version 1.1.0*

Very poor app, won't let you customise your wage/salary.  Don't waste your time by downloading this.

### 5/5 — Productive

*2013-08-15*

This app lets me know how I spend me my time, time is money...
