Smart TimeCard is a record of the hours you worked, kept by you, in the form your employer already expects. Here is the one that matters most — and then every other feature, each earning its place by protecting a number on that record.
Clock in and clock out, start a break, add a tip or a bonus, let overtime add itself — every part of your day recorded in one systematic place, the moment it happens.
No more adding hours up by hand. No more a folded paper timesheet you have to remember to fill in. It’s all a fingertap away, and the record stays on your phone — always with you, ready the moment you need it. Every minute counts, and here every minute is counted.
Arrive and the clock starts; leave and it stops. Runs in the background, always overridable by hand.
Learn moreDaily and weekly thresholds, double time, and California’s 7th-day rule — banded per job, never pooled.
Learn moreEach job its own rate, rules and export. Employer A never sees employer B’s hours.
Learn moreWhen a job pays through lunch, stepping out and back keeps the day as one continuous shift.
Learn moreCounted in what you earned, kept off the timesheet your employer sees. Two questions, answered apart.
Learn moreA PDF laid out like the paper form, agreeing with the screen — and saying so when the times can’t explain the hours.
Learn moreEdit any shift by hand, with guardrails that never invent or erase time on your behalf.
Learn moreOn your phone and your own iCloud — no account, no server — and nine languages.
Learn moreSave the location of a job and the clock starts when you arrive and stops when you leave — no tapping, no remembering. It runs in the background so the app doesn't need to be open, and every shift it records can still be adjusted by hand.
Overtime is where a payslip quietly loses money. Smart TimeCard applies the rules the way the law does — each job on its own, never pooled — so the figure you can check against is computed, not guessed.
Hours past a daily limit, and hours past a weekly limit, each roll into overtime by the thresholds you set for that job.
The longest days cross a second threshold into double time, banded above the overtime hours rather than replacing them.
Where it applies, the seventh consecutive day worked in a week is treated as overtime — the rule most trackers miss entirely.
Each job’s overtime is worked out within that job alone. Two part-time jobs don’t blur into one imaginary full week.
If you work more than one job, each is a separate employer inside the app: its own pay rate, its own overtime rules, its own colour, its own export. Nothing bleeds from one into another, on the screen or on paper.
Some jobs pay through lunch; some don’t. When a job pays through it, stepping out and coming back within the gap you set resumes the same shift instead of starting a second one — so a day reads as one continuous stretch, the way it’s actually paid.
Tips and bonuses count toward what you earned, so you can see the real number — but they are kept off the timesheet your employer sees, because they aren’t hours. Two different questions, answered separately: what did I make, and what hours am I claiming.
Everything comes down to the paper you hand in. The document and the app read from the same resolved figures, so they always match. The Classic layout is a paper form: two IN/OUT pairs per day, no separate break column. Where the printed times can’t fully explain the printed hours — a paid break, a correction — the sheet says so under the grid, out loud.
An unexplained gap on a signed document reads as concealment, which is worse than being wrong. So there are no unexplained gaps.
| Day | In | Out | In | Out | Hrs |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mon | 9:00 | 12:00 | 12:30 | 17:30 | 8.00 |
| Tue | 9:05 | 12:00 | 12:30 | 17:35 | 8.00 |
| Wed | 9:00 | 12:00 | 13:00 | 18:00 | 8.50 † |
| Thu | 9:00 | 12:00 | 12:30 | 18:15 | 8.75 |
| Fri | 9:00 | 12:00 | 12:30 | 17:30 | 8.75 |
† Wed: total includes a 0.50 h paid break. The gap between 12:00 and 13:00 is paid time, so the hours exceed the two printed spans.
Automatic tracking is convenient; it is not the boss. You can add, edit or delete any shift by hand, and a handful of rules quietly make sure the app never invents or erases time on your behalf.
Forgot to clock out, or the phone missed an arrival? Add or correct the shift yourself. The record is yours to keep accurate.
A clock-out is always checked against that shift’s own clock-in, so relaunching the app can’t end work you’re still doing.
Staying past when you were meant to leave is overtime. While you’re still on site, a scheduled end can’t quietly trim it away.
On your device, and in your own iCloud. There is no account to make and no server of ours that receives your timesheet — not your shifts, not your pay rate, not the locations you save for automatic tracking.
The privacy policy spells all of this out, and support answers the common questions.
Coming to the App Store for iPhone, iOS 17 and later.
Smart TimeCard helps you keep your own record of hours worked. It is not legal, tax, or payroll advice, and the figures it shows are estimates based on the settings you enter.
