Tembri is a shift planner for people who work rotating schedules. You do not need to sign in first. Day shifts, night shifts, rest days, and one-off notes stay on this iPhone. The week view is for the next few days; the month view is for the whole month. Tap a date, pick a frequent shift, and it is on the calendar. Statistics start with how many times you worked each shift this month, then add attendance, rest days, and estimated hours from the local roster. If you have a paper or photo roster, you can scan it. Tembri asks you to confirm the name, then shows day-by-day results so you can check before importing someone else's shifts. Shifts can use local reminders. If a workplace already publishes a roster outside the app, signing in can also show that roster plus in-app messages and tasks. Main features: - Local week and month calendars - One-tap frequent shifts - Shift counts, attendance, rest days, and estimated hours - Photo roster import after name and day-by-day review - Local reminders and Excel workload export - After sign-in, workplace-published rosters, messages, and tasks

Shifts planned. Room for life. Designed for shift work and irregular routines, CrossShift brings schedules, alarm reminders and work records together while leaving time for what matters. SCHEDULES AND REMINDERS Create early, day, evening or night shift templates with start/end times and alarms. Use repeating schedules for regular rotations and adjust individual dates for changes. Arrange multiple shifts on the same day, edit dates in batches, and apply regional holiday and make-up workday rules. SHIFT COUNTS AND WORK RECORDS View counts and distribution of completed shifts for free, with monthly, annual and custom ranges. Pro adds planned and credited hours, differences, overtime duration, notes and multipliers, leave types, annual allowances and compensatory time, plus PDF, CSV and long-image reports. PAY ESTIMATES AND RECONCILIATION In Settings > Salary Management, configure pay rules, review estimates for each pay period, record payments received and compare differences. Requires Pro. Estimates are personal references, not a substitute for employer payroll records. IMPORT EXISTING SCHEDULES FOR FREE Import schedules from system calendars, ICS files or rota images for free. On-device image recognition has no usage limit. Check the dates and shifts, then save. Pro offers optional intelligent cloud recognition to help recognize complex schedules. Consent is requested before each use. Processed recognized text and table information are sent; the original image is not uploaded. PRO EXPORTS Export features require Pro, including PDF, CSV and long-image reports, making work records easy to save, share and check. SHARING AND LIFE Create or join a shared group to view each other's schedules. Everyone maintains their own schedule. Add birthdays, anniversaries, exams and other important dates, with optional reminders. Use alarm, calendar, team schedule, work-hour and anniversary widgets on the Home Screen.
