Hourly Time Tracker is a no-fuss hours log for anyone paid by the hour. Schedule upcoming shifts, record actual hours as you work them, and let the app split regular and overtime automatically — using your own rules, and telling you exactly why each day is overtime. WIDGET A Home Screen or Lock Screen widget shows today's recorded hours at a glance. One tap records your scheduled hours for today instantly — no app launch needed. SCHEDULE Map out upcoming work days on a monthly calendar. Set hours and start times. Schedule several days at once with the Select Days button — use M-F or Weekend shortcuts, or long-press and drag — and apply one schedule to all of them. Optionally sync scheduled shifts to your iPhone Calendar. RECORD Log actual hours with a tap. Mark days as PTO, Sick, or Holiday from a dropdown. Import existing events from your iPhone Calendar as scheduled or recorded days. HOURS Every pay period is automatically summarised: regular hours, overtime, and paid time off. Each day's overtime shows the reason it counts. Reconcile periods once your payslip confirms them, and send a clean hours report from the app with a fully customisable template. REPORTS Monthly summaries with day-by-day breakdowns, year-to-date totals, PTO planned vs. taken against a yearly allowance, sick-time totals, your upcoming schedule, and unreconciled periods. Export any report to PDF to print, save to Files, or email. OVERTIME RULES Five modes to match how your employer calculates overtime: - Daily threshold — hours past a set daily limit - Daily tiered — two overtime tiers with separate start points - Weekly threshold — hours past a set weekly total - Schedule (Daily) — hours over each day's scheduled amount - Monthly Quota — hours over a required monthly total (paid time off counts toward it, and a shortfall is flagged) Not sure which fits? Every setting has a built-in info button explaining what it does. ICLOUD SYNC All data is stored in your private iCloud account and syncs automatically across every iPhone signed into the same Apple ID. Nothing to configure. PRIVACY Hourly Time Tracker collects no data. Your hours, period records, and settings are stored on your device and in your private iCloud database — they never leave your control and are never accessible to us. SUPPORT THE APP Hourly Time Tracker is free with no ads or paywalls. If it saves you time, the Tip Jar in Settings lets you leave an optional tip to support development.
