SAYF is a free, offline daily activity report (DAR) app built for security officers. Log the shift as it happens β€” guided, timestamped entries, photos included. When the shift ends, SAYF turns it into a clean, structured PDF and sends it straight to your supervisor or client, no extra steps. WHAT IT DOES β€’ Guided, step-by-step shift setup β€’ Timestamped log entries with optional photos β€’ A live countdown clock so you always know how much of your shift is left β€’ One-tap PDF export β€” officer, times, log, and photos, ready to send β€’ Save recipients once, send in a tap β€’ Works offline β€” except for when you send an email WHY IT'S FREE No account. No subscription. No cloud to bill you for. Reports, photos, and recipients are stored only on your device β€” SAYF never sees them. BUILT FOR THE JOB No fancy dashboards, no admin console, no per-seat pricing. Just a fast way to log a shift and produce a report someone can actually read. Available in English and Spanish.
