Welcome to Work-Aid, an app designed to help you record your hours spent at work each day, private and on device only. With Work-Aid you can set your work location, your minimum daily hours, and Work-Aid will do the rest. Features: - Automatically log times when you arrive and leave your work location. - View all your hours in easily accessible charts and graphs. - Export all your logs to a CSV file and email/ send them to yourself. - Get notified when your arrival/departure has been logged. - Log hours worked from home. Recording the hours you work has been vital for people who need to send invoices to companies, or are simply interested in knowing how much they actually work. There are plenty of way of doing this, such as writing down the times you arrive/ leave, or using an app to manually "clock in" and "clock out". But what if you've had a huge and stressful day (let's face it, it happens more often than not), and you forget to do this? That's where Work-Aid comes in. By setting your workplace(s) on a map, every time you arrive/leave, Work-Aid will make a note of the amount of time you spend there, plus there's always the option to clock yourself in manually too as an extra measure. Everything is stored on device and private to you, no backend servers or data collection outside of your own device.
