ShiftCal® is a platoon-based calendar for emergency service personnel working split (am/pm) shifts. It is easily customizable to any regular shift rotation of two to six platoons. Create multiple shift schedules and switch between them at will - keep track of schedules for family members or neighboring agencies. Quickly create new shift schedules using the "Paste from Clipboard" option - see the "Help" tab. ShiftCal is not an appointment calendar - you already have an excellent one on your device. ShiftCal is a registered trademark.
