## What is TimeKeeper?

TimeKeeper helps you to track your times at specific locations. Just easily create a location and let TimeKeeper do its work fully automated. GPS is used to check when a location is entered (Check In) and leaved (Check Out). The time between Check In and Check Out results in your attendance time. Over time, other relevant data such as week, month, or total attendance is calculated. 

Features:
• Automatic time tracking for max. 20 locations (one included, more via In-App purchase) 
• Detailed history with every check in and check out
• Daily, weekly and monthly summaries 
• History export as TXT, CSV or PDF to other applications (via In-App purchase)
• Calendar export for check ins
• Define daily break times
• Attendance reminder
• Today widget
• Map view with all defined locations
• Temporary pause tracking
• Full control over your data

Notes:
Mobile data and Wi-Fi should always remain switched on for reliable attendance tracking. No active data connection is required. Continued use of GPS in the background may decrease battery life.

### 1/5 — TK

*2022-10-07, version 3.0.6*

My device settings are all correct. 
App clocks in incorrect time and remains clocked in for days even though away from location more than 30 km. 100 m radius set in app. 
Settings not available in app after downloading and initial setup.

### 1/5 — WAS great

*2022-01-27*

I have the paid version and on my old phone it worked great. On my iphone 13 i can’t figure out how to get the app to check me in at a location automatically. I have allowed all the permissions. The purpose of the app is so i don’t have to remember to check in. If i have to remember to check in at a location, I don’t need the app. And of course i have heard nothing back from the creator. I have deleted the app.

### 4/5 — Reliable but I would like more options

*2022-01-25*

It would be helpful for me if I could collect hours for a specific address totaled up for my work week which begins on Monday and ends on Sunday. All I can find on this app is having access to weeks that begin on Sundays and send Saturdays. 
I really appreciate how I can count on the app to keep track of my hours at specific locations for me because it definitely helps me. It would be nice if there was other choices though. 
Thank you

### 4/5 — Great, but a little expensive.

*2021-06-14, version 3.0.6*

This is a great app, but I wasn’t able to test it out before deciding to buy it because it only allows one location for the free version. It would have been nice to have been able to test it out with 2 or 3 locations. Also, £3.99 is quite expensive when I know there are similar apps out there for less or even free. If I had been able to properly test this out with a couple of locations then I might have been tempted to buy. Also, why only maximum radius of 0.6miles?, other apps do a much bigger radius. PLEASE CAN WE HAVE GOOGLE MAPS ??.. But it’s a good simple app. Easy on the eye.

### 1/5 — Unhappy with free version

*2021-04-15*

Hard to use. Not intuitive enough

### 1/5 — Great idea ! Just doesn’t work

*2020-09-13*

Great idea and I was excited that I found this app. But it doesn’t work for me , no way to edit locations and blends all location that week together ! And I emailed support 3 times in the last 10 day with no reply!!! Still would accept the help to fix the problem and would re rate this app , great idea!!!

### 2/5 — Horrible app. Don’t waste your time or money

*2020-08-12*

Requires way too many steps to “check in” & out. With the technology available, this app should know when you arrive at your identified” work location.  For me, remembering to check in and then out was a pain. In my opinion, for average (or even above average user) It’s not very user friendly.  Requires too many steps.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2019-07-22*

Great app. Auto updates a check in and check out that displays by day. Wish that interface was had better design (easier on the eyes) but overall I love it.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. A new interface will come soon with the next update, including a dark mode.

### 4/5 — Great app. I need one thing though!

*2019-06-22*

Can we get an Apple Watch companion app. That would get you that last start lol

### 2/5 — Reporting is useless for me

*2018-12-14*

I have the pay version. I go to multiple different plants every week. But the time is only consolidated to each site, not in one week. There should be some ability to change that. Also the reporting is very very useless. My avg day in is at 8 but the reporting says 10 because of when I check back in from lunch. It doesn’t understand that feature. Exporting to a csv is worthless. Gives you 0 extra data you would want. 
Checking into the location is simple and straight forward which does work.
Needs major work on the little things and then the app would work great.

**Developer response:** Please check the laustest update.
