START FREE. ADD PLUS WHEN YOU NEED IT. The free app supports one active job, shift history, basic summaries, iCloud sync, backup and CSV export. Count My Shift Plus is an optional one-time in-app purchase that adds multiple active jobs and job comparisons. No subscription. YOUR NOTEBOOK IS YOUR BUSINESS No separate app account is required. Optional usage analytics starts only if you choose to enable it. Your job names, notes, hours worked and income amounts are not sent to analytics. Use Count My Shift on iPhone and iPad, with layouts adapted for portrait and landscape on iPad. The initial currency follows your device’s region. Choose your reporting currency in Settings; it also becomes the default for new jobs. Saved records and CSV exports keep their original amounts and currencies. Totals in one currency keep that currency. Mixed-currency summaries use published exchange rates on or before each shift date. Converted totals are estimates; bank and tax amounts may differ. Downloaded rates work offline; missing rates need an internet connection. Earnings are before taxes and other deductions. This is a personal record-keeping app, not payroll, tax filing or a bank connection.
