## What is RotaCell?

Your whole shift life in one calm place. RotaCell is the shift planner that doesn't look like homework: bold colored paper, a calendar you can read at a glance and little helpers that look after you. Free to use. RotaCell Plus adds the extras, and you can try it free for a week.

Built for nurses and healthcare staff, factory and warehouse workers, retail and hospitality teams, drivers, emergency services, and anyone whose week doesn't fit nine to five.

WORKS WITH YOUR REAL SCHEDULE
• Ready-made patterns: 4 on/4 off, Continental, DuPont, 2-2-2, rotating Early/Late/Night, or a plain Monday to Friday
• Scan a printed schedule with your camera: it is read on your device and nothing is uploaded
• Import a calendar (.ics) and run more than one job in one calendar, with double-booking warnings
• Swap a shift, add overtime or mark leave in two taps, and keep your past days when your schedule changes

A MONTH YOU CAN READ AT A GLANCE
• Today, this week and your whole rotation months ahead
• Public holidays for 200+ countries built in
• Reminders sit right next to your shifts

YOUR SHIFT, LIVE (Plus)
• A Live Activity paints the sky of your shift, from sun to stars, on your Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island, on Apple Watch and in CarPlay

KNOW WHEN TO LEAVE (Plus)

A HELPER THAT HAS YOUR BACK
• Spots a short rest or a double booking before it hurts
• RotaRest (Plus) reads your Apple Health sleep and warns you about tired weeks before they bite

SHARE WITH YOUR CIRCLE

• A live partner link keeps their view up to date by itself (Plus). Invite-only: nobody can find you, and you can stop sharing any time
