Both formats include your name, pay period, daily breakdown, total hours, and any overtime; ready to send straight to your employer or payroll team. APPLE WATCH COMPANION Log your day from your wrist. The TimeKeeper Plus Watch app lets you select your day type and log your hours without ever picking up your iPhone. OVERTIME TRACKING Set daily or weekly overtime thresholds and TimeKeeper Plus will automatically flag and calculate your overtime hours so you always know exactly what you're owed. LEAVE MANAGEMENT Track your sick leave and annual leave balances. TimeKeeper Plus automatically deducts leave when you log a leave day, so you always know what you have remaining.

Set a daily reminder at a time that works for you and TimeKeeper Plus will send you a nudge when it's time to log.
