My Work Times! Running a team means juggling a hundred moving pieces — who's on shift, who's running late, who's due for overtime, and who put in a vacation request last week. My Work Times pulls all of that into one place, so you can stop chasing timesheets and start actually managing your people. It's the easiest way to track your team's hours, straight from any phone. Built for small businesses, contractors, and growing teams who need something that just works — no clunky hardware, no complicated setup, and no app download for your employees. They clock in and out with a single tap, and you see everything happen in real time. Every new company starts with a full 30-day free trial — complete access, no charge until Day 31. And employees are always free. You only pay for what the business uses, and only after you've had a full month to fall in love with it. CLOCK IN, CLOCK OUT, AND BREAKS Clocking in takes one tap, with a quick confirmation to prevent accidental punches. Breaks are tracked with start and end times and a friendly audio chime, and the app automatically calculates shift length, break time, and net working minutes for you. Forgot to clock out? My Work Times has your back — it flags any shift that runs past 10 hours, so hours never get inflated. Every clock-in also captures GPS location, so you always know Work happened where it was supposed to. LIVE MONITORING FOR EMPLOYERS This is where My Work Times really shines. The Live Monitor shows you exactly who's Working, who's On Break, and who's Off Clock — refreshed every five seconds. At a glance, you can see how many people are on Break right now, who just started their shift, and who hasn't shown up yet. You can clock employees in or out yourself, edit shifts individually or in bulk (all password-protected), and manage your company logo, address, employee photos, and PTO policies from one dashboard. SCHEDULING AND CALENDAR Set weekly recurring schedules for each employee and see everything laid out in a clean visual calendar. My Work Times even syncs with Google Calendar, automatically creating shift events for the next four weeks so your team always knows when they're expected. Need to shuffle things around? The bulk shift editor lets you adjust multiple schedules at once. HOURS, OVERTIME, AND PAY Overtime is handled automatically. Set daily and weekly thresholds per employee, and the app separates regular hours from overtime for you — no manual math. Add hourly rates to see estimated weekly earnings, and get pay-period summaries, whether you run weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, or monthly. When payroll time comes, email a clean hours report for your records, audits, or your accountant. VACATION AND TIME OFF Employees request time off right from an interactive calendar, and you approve, deny, or cancel with a tap. Approved vacations automatically block clock-ins during those days, so there's no confusion. PTO and PDO days are tracked per person, and everyone stays in the loop with email and SMS notifications. SECURITY YOU CAN TRUST Your team's data is protected at every layer. New devices are verified with a 6-digit code, logins are tracked with location and device details, and anything suspicious gets flagged automatically. Passwords rotate on a schedule, dormant accounts are cleaned up, and Row-Level Security means employees only ever see their own data while employers see their whole company. BUILT-IN AI ASSISTANTS Two smart helpers come along for the ride: Super Agent answers questions and handles tasks inside the app, and the Vacation Assistant specializes in managing time-off requests so nothing slips through the cracks.
