## What is ShifRoll?

ShifRoll is the calendar built for shift workers — nurses, firefighters, security
officers, hospitality staff, anyone with a rotating or non-9-to-5 schedule. Plan
your shifts on a clean calendar, set alarms once, and never sleep through another
shift.

— PLAN YOUR SHIFTS —
• Visual calendar showing every upcoming shift at a glance
• Today and Tomorrow summaries on the home screen, with weather and your next
  alarm front-and-centre
• Color-coded categories so day shifts, night shifts, and on-call shifts are
  instantly recognisable

— SMART ALARMS THAT FIRE THEMSELVES —
• Set alarms once on your shift; they ring automatically every time that shift
  comes around
• Configure alerts as "30 minutes before start" or at a fixed time — whatever
  works for you
• An integrated Shortcut writes your shift alarms straight into the system
  Clock app, so they ring even on silent mode and Focus

— BUILD ONCE, REUSE FOREVER WITH PRESETS —
• Save a "Night shift week" or "Weekend on-call" template once
• Apply it to any future week with two taps
• Mix and match presets for irregular rotations — perfect for 4-on-4-off,
  rolling rosters, or split schedules

— DESIGNED FOR THE WAY SHIFT WORKERS THINK —
• Red days for weekend / public-holiday recognition
• Customisable categories and bricks so the app fits your job, not the other
  way around
• Quick add for one-off shifts or schedule changes
• Built-in calendar import — see your existing system calendar events
  alongside your shifts

— LANGUAGES —
• English
• 繁體中文
• 简体中文

— PRIVACY-FRIENDLY —
• Sign in with Google or Apple — no phone number required
• Your schedule is encrypted in transit and synced to your private cloud
  account so it survives device changes
• Delete your account and all associated data at any time, directly from the
  app

ShifRoll is free to use. Plan your shifts. Never miss one.

Friends, reworked

Sharing that just works — as soon as you and a friend connect, they see your work schedule. No setup, no empty screens. Fine-tune who sees what anytime with Sharing groups.
New Friends tab — your Sharing groups as cards with member avatars. Star a group to pin it to a Favorites section on top.
Group schedule table — everyone's plans side by side, days across, people down. Your own row and the dates stay pinned while you scroll, so comparing shifts is effortless. Flip to Shift view to read the group like a roster.
Tap a friend to open their calendar right in place — and manage their sharing from the same sheet.
Friend requests, done right — get a notification when someone adds you or accepts your request. Accept with one tap. See requests you've sent and cancel them anytime.
One checklist for privacy — a simple grid shows exactly which schedule groups each Sharing group can see.

For existing users: friends you hadn't put in a sharing group now see your default schedule (work shifts only). You'll see a one-time note in the app — review or change anytime under Sharing groups.

### 4.5.1 — 2026-07-14

This update makes alarms more dependable:

- Follow-up alarms that ring after midnight (e.g. a late-night shift with a +30 min backup) now survive schedule refreshes and ring on the right day.
- When a shift is replaced or covered by a multi-day day off, its alarms now stay silent on every covered day — matching what the calendar shows.
- Alarm times that cross midnight now show a clear +1 day marker in event details, the agenda and the widget.
- The app now asks before removing follow-up alarms when you switch an alarm to Silent.
