Know exactly what every shift is worth. Watch your pay tick up live on your Lock Screen, plan your work schedule in seconds and see your take-home pay before you say yes to overtime. Built by a shift worker, for shift workers. Free, no subscription, no sign-up. YOUR EARNINGS, LIVE ON THE LOCK SCREEN The moment you start a shift, a Live Activity shows your pay ticking up and the time left, without opening the app. On iPhone 14 Pro and later it appears in the Dynamic Island too. WATCH YOUR PAY TICK UP Enter your hourly rate and Overtime Live counts your earnings up second by second, with overtime tracked separately from regular hours. KNOW YOUR REAL TAKE-HOME PAY See past the gross figure. The What-If calculator compares hours, rate and estimated take-home pay before you accept a shift, and the Take Home Pay card estimates what you actually keep after tax. Set your pay period to weekly, biweekly, monthly or a custom date and track every payday. BUILT FOR SHIFT WORK Handle the pay that office apps ignore: overtime multipliers like time and a half and double time, shift differentials, on-call days with separate callback pay, flat-rate sleep-ins, shifts with no set end that count up until you finish, and custom rates for any arrangement. Split a shift across different rates or an unpaid break and track comp time. Add expenses and receipt photos to any shift. PLAN YOUR SCHEDULE IN SECONDS Pick a popular rotation such as DuPont, Pitman or 4 on 4 off, or build your own and fill in weeks or months ahead. Save your usual shifts as templates, set reminders and see everything in month, week, day, agenda or full-screen calendar views. Overlap warnings, schedule export and iPhone calendar sync included. INSIGHTS, STATS & GOALS Explore a 12-month hours and earnings heatmap, track totals and averages, set a yearly goal and unlock achievements as your shifts add up. On compatible iPhones, optional Apple Intelligence creates a short personalized briefing on-device. YOUR DATA, YOUR WAY Your shift, pay and goal data stays on your device. Optional iCloud backup uses your personal iCloud account and keeps earlier copies automatically, so you can restore if you need to. Export your hours and pay history as CSV or a monthly PDF for taxes or bookkeeping. FREE, WITH AN OPTIONAL ONE-TIME PRO UNLOCK Shift tracking, live earnings, your schedule calendar, stats and iCloud backup are free. Your first 30 days include every Pro feature. After that, a one-time Pro purchase removes ads, adds the Apple Watch app and lifts the limits on What-If calculations, exports, expenses and pay period tracking. No subscription. WHO IT'S FOR Nurses, CNAs and caregivers. Police, EMTs and firefighters. Retail, restaurant and warehouse workers. Security, delivery drivers and gig workers. Anyone paid by the hour who wants to see what their time is really worth. Available in English, German, Spanish and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional). Download Overtime Live and make every hour count.

Our app is free now! A subscription is just a bill with better branding and a marketing department. Outgo helps you track recurring charges across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with one purchase and no monthly subscription. Add your subscriptions and regular bills once, then see what they cost monthly, annually, and over time. Outgo is especially useful for the charges that are easiest to forget: annual renewals, quarterly bills, free trials, and those quiet little monthly services that add up. It also helps answer the question that matters most: is this subscription actually worth it? Use the Is It Worth It? calculator to compare a subscription’s cost against your hourly value and how much you actually use it. A cheap service can be expensive if you never touch it. An expensive one can be worth keeping if it saves real time or gives real value. Outgo includes: • One purchase for iPhone, iPad, and Mac • No subscription, no monthly fee, no bank login required • Reminders for monthly, quarterly, annual, and trial-ending charges • Dashboard totals for monthly spend, annual spend, and possible savings • Upcoming bill tracking so charges do not sneak up on you • Is It Worth It? calculator using cost, hourly value, and usage • Smart Insights, including a six-month subscription creep chart • Annual bill calendar for the charges that hide between months • Savings projections over 1, 3, 5, and 10 years • Fixed-cost and optional-subscription organization • Custom categories, colors, notes, websites, and payment details • Home Screen widgets for upcoming bills • iCloud sync across your devices • JSON import/export and PDF reports Break the cycle of unnecessary subscriptions by starting with our free app.
