WorkLog is a time clock and timesheet app for people paid by the hour. Clock in when your shift starts, clock out when it ends, and WorkLog logs the hours, subtracts unpaid breaks, and shows what you earned. Built for hourly workers who need to check their own paycheck: servers and bartenders, nurses and caregivers, drivers, warehouse and retail staff, students working part-time, freelancers billing by the hour, and anyone working more than one job. β WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT β β’ One-time purchase. No subscription β pay once and Premium is yours for good. β’ No account and no sign-up. There is nothing to log in to. β’ Sync runs on your own iCloud account.
