ShiftPay shows how each shift changes your expected gross pay—not just where it sits on a calendar. Build a 2-2-3, 24-on/48-off, 3x12, or custom rotation, including overnight shifts. Add your hourly rate, pay schedule, overtime rules, unpaid breaks, and differentials to create a private on-device forecast. Before payday, model overtime, a call-off, PTO, unpaid time, training, a holiday, or a bonus. Update one shift with actual times to see the estimated gross-pay difference and the explanation behind it. After payday, compare the estimate with the actual gross amount on your pay statement and review what to verify first. The calendar, gross-pay forecast, and changed-pay explanations remain usable without a subscription. ShiftPay Pro adds advanced pay rules, reminders, widgets, Apple Watch complications, calendar export, and enhanced setup. Some features require a ShiftPay Pro subscription, sold separately. Built for shift workers, nurses, firefighters, EMS, retail, restaurants, warehouses, security, students, and anyone paid by the hour. ShiftPay is local-first. Your schedule, pay rules, reminders, logged changes, and widget data stay on your device. Note: ShiftPay estimates gross pay only. It is not an official earnings record and does not guarantee pay. Always verify against your official records.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: GPSPlus at every 2 days against ShiftPay's fortnightly. GPSPlus also leads on ratings volume (13 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). ShiftPay's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. GPSPlus sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per month and ShiftPay sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
ShiftPay holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GPSPlus has 13 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
GPSPlus ships an update every 2 days, ShiftPay fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
