Timecard provides a simple yet powerful tool to capture employees time and create reports. Users can check in when they start work and check out when they complete the work and the application can calculate the number of hours they have worked. The supervisor can view the hours reported by each employee and the location from which the time is reported. Employee TimeCard is the perfect solution for business with ONSITE, OFFSITE and MOBILE employees where TIME and LOCATION need to be accounted for. Employee TimeCard collects time and GPS location allowing employers to set up GEOFENCING and confirm the location of their employees as they work onsite, offsite or mobile. All the information can be seamlessly exported into Email, Excel or QuickBooks for invoicing and reporting purposes. This application balances the right visibility of the workforce and the privacy of the employees. Basically, when the employees are on the clock, their location is logged. If they move out of a specific radius set by the employer, while they are on the clock, the employer is notified. But if they clock-out, immediately the location tracking is stopped. Many of our customers use this feature for auditing compliance on secure geofencing work area, tax preparation, performance management and fraud or overbilling prevention. You can try this application free for 60 days. After the 60 days, subscribe to continue using the application. The subscription is $9.99/month for 5 users, 1 Supervisor and 4 basic users.You will be automatically renewed each month unless you cancel your subscription through your iTunes account.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Toolr at 46% against Employee TimeCard's 0%. Toolr also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (358 vs 2). Employee TimeCard's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Employee TimeCard sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Toolr sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Employee TimeCard holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Toolr has 358 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Employee TimeCard's written reviews are positive against 46% of Toolr's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Employee TimeCard ships an update every 2 months, Toolr every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
