Compare monthly totals and export your records as CSV. • Get a timely nudge — Set an optional local reminder for 30 minutes before a shift, and see upcoming shifts in a Home Screen widget. • Make repeat planning easier with Pro — Build custom rotations, preview the sequence and adjust individual shifts when plans change.
