Need a work order form you can fill out on the job and hand to the customer? Workly turns the customer, the job, your labor hours and parts into a clean, printable work order PDF — no blank paper forms, no spreadsheet. Fill in the order number and date, the customer's details and the job description, add labor and parts lines, set a tax rate if you charge one, and tap Make Work Order PDF. • CUSTOMER AND JOB — customer name, phone, email and address, plus a job description and notes. Add your business name and contact details at the top if you like. • LABOR AND PARTS LINES — each line has a description, quantity or hours, and a rate or price; the amount is calculated for you. Up to 60 lines, continued onto extra pages when needed. • TOTALS DONE FOR YOU — labor subtotal, parts subtotal, optional tax and a bold total. • SIGNATURE LINES — spaces for the customer's and the technician's signature, each with a date line. • PRINT, SHARE OR SAVE — print on the spot, share the PDF, or save it to Files. Honest scope: Workly makes one work order at a time on US Letter pages; it doesn't keep a customer list, track payments or add a logo. Amounts are shown in your own currency, and decimal commas like 12,50 are read correctly. Signatures are signed by hand on the printed copy. Everything is made on your iPhone. Nothing is uploaded, and no account is needed. Try it free — 3 work orders. A one-time $4.99 purchase unlocks unlimited work orders. No subscription, no ads.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Workly at every 4 days against Logger's every 6 weeks. Logger's advantage is device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
