Outstanding

This app is the main reason I stay with iPhone. It takes some time to get it setup but once you learn the app, it’s the best. I work an irregular schedule with a ton of overtime. This keeps everything organized and helps me self-audit OT hours to make sure I’m getting paid. Worth every penny.

Love it

Love this scheduling app. I love that you can have up to 14 markers quickly accessible and the shift application is super easy. My own “complaint” or “suggestion” is that I wish the markers were stackable and not side by side otherwise I would give this app a 5 star. Please make that an option!

Great for shift working couple!

Works great! Worth every penny. It really helps. I now know when my wife and I are working years from now. My wife and I are both shift workers with odd schedules that repeat. I had been looking for an app to keep track of both schedules and this does it. I’ve been using this app for many years. It’s one of the best app purchases I’ve made.

The setup of schedules does take a little time and effort, but the tutorial mode walks you through it.
I later emailed Jeff with a couple of minor issues and suggestions. He got back to me the same day! Most tweaks are already on the way and he solved my issues by showing me other ways to use the app. He really wants to get it right. Great support.

Highly Recommended. Would still like to see a drag and drop feature for swapped shifts and an optional list view but on a whole it’s great.

Great app.

I’ve had this app for years and love it…highly recommend.

Great calendar

I have a 8 day rotation with the fire dept.. 1 day on 2 days off 1 day on 3 days off. Once I set the rotation, it goes on for years and years. I’m able to see my schedule years ahead. Also, it is connected to my Apple calendar. When I make appointments on my Apple calendar, it’s linked to this one. I’ve been using this calendar for 15 years. I hope to use it 15 more.
