## What is PayTick?

You work all month. The money shows up once, in one lump, and the link between the two is gone.

PayTick puts it back. A counter that ticks up to the cent while you work, and stops when you stop.

SET UP IN UNDER 30 SECONDS
Your hours (pre-filled 9-to-5, Monday to Friday), your pay, how often you're paid. That's it. No account, no password, no email.

YOU NEVER HAVE TO OPEN IT
This is the whole point. Four Home Screen widgets, a Lock Screen widget, and a Live Activity that counts in the Dynamic Island all day long. You glance at your iPhone, you see your number.

BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY GET PAID
Salaried by the month or the year, paid by the hour, or freelancing on a day rate. Take-home or gross, you choose what you type in and nothing is guessed about your taxes. PTO and holidays keep counting when you're salaried, because you're still being paid. A raise is dated, so last year's numbers stay last year's numbers.

YOUR SCHEDULE RUNS IT
Set your week once and the counter follows it on its own night shifts included.
An unusual day (time off, sick, overtime) takes two taps to log, and the totals
catch up.

GOALS WORTH WORKING FOR
A guitar, a trip, next month's rent. Write down what you're saving for and what it costs, and PayTick tells you how many hours of work are left. Six goals are waiting on first launch, ready to be swapped for yours.

MAKE IT YOURS
Eight colors, four backgrounds, and a cat that puts in the hours with you. Live preview while you tweak.

NOTHING LEAVES YOUR IPHONE
No account, no server, no ads, no trackers, no third-party SDKs. The app connects to nothing at all: every number is computed and stored on your device. The privacy label says "Data Not Collected", and it is meant literally. The one thing that can leave is your CSV export, and only when you tap Share yourself.

ONE PURCHASE. NOT A SUBSCRIPTION.
Free forever: one job, today's and this week's totals to the cent, all four widgets, and the full Live Activity with every style unlocked.
Premium, once and for all: month, year and all-time totals, month-by-month statistics, CSV export, every widget color, background and cat pose, and several jobs counted side by side.

Pay once. Keep it for life. No subscription, ever.

### 3/5 — Good but missing important thing (to me)

*2026-10-02*

It’s missing the option to include any money made before purchasing the app would be perfect, so we can track our progress of the objectives more accurately.

**Developer response:** Hi J., thanks a lot for your review, it really helps!

Good news, this feature is already in the app 😊 Go to Settings › My jobs › your job and set "Counting since" to the day you started, and everything you've earned since then will be counted.

Hope this does the trick, and feel free to update your rating if it does.
