App summary

This app is designed for all hard-working shift workers. You can add customized shifts.


When editing your shifts, you can select a range of days (rather than one day) to set. Thus, you can set your schedule (roster, planner) in few seconds. Then, you can send the screenshot of your calendar to friends by clicking one button.

Easy to use. Does exactly what i want. Perfect. Update on this App. was best App on my phone, but just lately nothing seems to be working. Lost years of shifts worked in the backup and just put some notes in, closed App, re opened and notes have gone. Very disappointed.

Truly excellent app. Working shifts I would be lost without it. I regularly recommend it to my work colleagues. UPDATE: Now retired so don't need it, but I found it was essential for my job!

Been using this app for years. Definitely the most useful shift schedule app available. Would love to be able to draw a line through a bunch of days, to indicate for example "unable to work this entire week" etc. Would be nice to be able to attach a photo to a date on the calendar.
