Chronos Time Tracker vs SimpleShift

Chronos helps shift workers stay on top of their hours — without stress. Log each shift in seconds. Chronos pre-fills sensible defaults based on your usual routine, so adding a day's work is a quick tap, not a form. Adjust times, add a break, pick your shift type, and you're done. TRACK WHAT MATTERS • Daily, weekly, and roster-period summaries at a glance • Gentle effort indicators show how you're tracking against your limits — calm green to soft coral, never alarming red • Supports Normal shifts, TOIL (Time Off in Lieu), and Leave — TOIL hours automatically offset your worked totals ROSTER-AWARE Set your roster cycle length and Chronos keeps a running total across the whole pattern — useful when your working week spans a rotating schedule. EXPORT WITH ONE TAP Share a CSV of your full shift history for payroll, tax records, or your manager. Everything is generated on-device and shared on your terms. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your shifts never leave your device. No account. No cloud sync. No tracking. Just your hours, yours. Chronos is designed for nurses, paramedics, factory workers, hospitality staff, and anyone whose week doesn't follow a nine-to-five.

SimpleShift is a simple shift calendar for people who work shifts. Plan your rota, see what’s coming up at a glance, and stay on top of your hours without the clutter of a full planner app. Your schedule lives on a clear month or week calendar. Add shifts quickly, jot notes for individual days, and share a snapshot of any month when you need to. Create shift templates with your times, colours, and labels, then swipe them onto the calendar for fast scheduling. For rotating rosters, build a repeating pattern once and apply it in seconds instead of filling in every day by hand. Track hours and pay with hourly rates, monthly and annual summaries, and charts. Export pay data when you need it. Home Screen widgets and Apple Watch keep upcoming shifts visible at a glance, and optional reminders notify you before work starts. Choose colours and themes that fit you. Optional iCloud sync backs up your calendar across your devices. SimpleShift keeps your data on your device and in your iCloud, private by design, with no account required.
