Pensum tracks your work hours with one tap and keeps your timesheet. Clock in, take a break, call it a day.

WHAT THE APP DOES • One big button to punch in and out, a second one for breaks • Target hours per week, month or year from your full-time week and workload, for example 42 h × 80 % • Quitting time: the time of day when your daily target is reached • Running balance with a starting value, payouts and corrections • Vacation, sick days, accidents, military service, time off in lieu and unpaid days • Public holidays for all Swiss cantons, all German states and Austria • Correct entries or add them later, with a note • Projects: assign each block to a project, the report shows the hours per project • Freelance work without a target: just log the hours • Live Activity on the Lock Screen, with break and clock out • Reports by week, month and year with a chart • A reminder if you forget to clock out PRO Multiple employers, each with its own target and balance, CSV export for payroll and time systems, and automatic clocking with Shortcuts, Siri, the Action Button or an NFC tag, for example when you arrive at work. A one-time purchase, no subscription, with Family Sharing. CREATE INVOICES An add-on to Pro, for freelance work: hours per project times your rate as a PDF with the details required in Switzerland, Germany and Austria, with a Swiss QR-bill or GiroCode, reverse charge and small-business exemption.
