About

ShiftLine

Features
Read full description

ShiftLine is a work shift calendar. You draw a hitch once, paint the roster, and see offs against work. It is not a to-do list and not a day planner. Paint the month Day, Night, and Off start on the brush. An off day is a rest stamp, not an empty square. A blank day is one you have not painted. Tap a day to paint it. Tap that same stamp again to clear it. Month and Agenda show the same board. A line across the month shows work and rest at a glance. The hitch A hitch is the repeating sequence of stamps. Save it, then apply it onto the board. Free keeps one hitch and applies at most 30 days. ShiftLine Pro keeps more than one hitch and applies the same pattern for up to 24 months from the start date. Pro can add another job board. Free keeps one. Hours and pay A stamp can store a start, an end, a break, and an optional hourly rate. The month adds up painted work hours. If a rate is set, the board shows a straight pay estimate from those hours. That number is not a paycheck, a timesheet file, or a tax form. ShiftLine Pro also counts weekly overtime: painted hours in each week above a threshold you choose. Reminders A local reminder can fire a chosen number of hours before a work shift starts. Two rules are free. Pro allows up to eight. ShiftLine asks for notification permission only when you turn a reminder on. There is no remote push. Holidays Common holidays can be marked on the grid: New Year, Christmas, and a few dates for your region. It is not a full national calendar. Today widget The Home Screen widget shows the shift you are on, or the next one, with a countdown. Lock Screen widgets that list the next shifts are part of ShiftLine Pro. Hand the month off ShiftLine Pro exports the painted month: - A PDF of that month’s painted hours, work days, and off days - An ICS file of work and off days, shared from this iPhone (no ShiftLine server) - Apple Calendar, work shifts only, and only when you tap to write them Calendar access is optional. The roster itself does not need it. On this iPhone There is no account. The board stays on the device. ShiftLine Pro is a monthly plan, a yearly plan, or a one-time lifetime purchase. The app shows the price from the App Store. This version has no free trial. Not in this version Apple Watch and Shortcuts are not included.
