Shifty - Shift Worker Calendar

First of all, I love the fact that I am able to put all my shifts in here, where it also keeps track of my pay. It makes it very convenient with how it syncs up to the calendar as well. The simplicity of the layout is very pleasant and makes things easy to use. There are some key features I would love to see in the future that I believe would improve this app greatly and spread its popularity. Some ideas are : - There should be a way to pick your paydays. For example, I get paid on the 25th for the days 1-15 and I get paid on the 10th for the days 16 - the end of the month. Currently the way the “paycheck” feature is set up doesn’t allow me to check this accurately. - With the “saved shifts” feature, there should be a way to also save the break within that shift - It would be nice to see more choices in colors for each saved shift. - Also, a time and a half or double time pay feature would be nice Like I said, this app is great and very user friendly. It has a lot of potential and I really hope developers take these ideas into consideration.

This app is a great tool for me and I use it all the time. There’s only one issue. My pay periods are two weeks, starting on tuesday, ending 2 weeks later on monday. The issue is that I get paid on friday, but it’s not for the current pay period, it’s for the last payperiod. I haven’t seen a way to work around this in the app and was wondering if developers could fix this issue. They’ve been pretty great about getting back to every review sent in, and I hope they’ll do the same for this one.

I really love being able to save shifts and just add those to days I know I’ll work those hours. Also, I really like seeing my paycheck. I already know what I’ll be making most pay periods, but it is a nice convenience. I would like to see better integration with Apples Calendar app. It would’ve been a huge time saver if I could have imported all of my “work” categories as shifts and just gave a value for my pay. Regardless, I do like how simple the app is to use. I’m curious to see what this app develops into over time!

I’ve been using the app since November. It was listed as a ‘free’ app. Today I went to put in my new schedule and the only way I can continue to use it is if I ‘upgrade’. There was no mention of that when I selected this app to use. I have a different app for my daughters schedule and we’ve been using it for years and never once had to ‘upgrade to continue to use. I realize that $1.99 isn’t much but that doesn’t really made an app free.

I can’t see the bottom row of dates on my iPhone. I can on the iPad but I hate using apps that can only be used in portrait orientation on an iPad. Also, I have three regular shifts, 7a-3p, 3p-11p and 11p-7a. I’ve added all three shifts but the color difference between each is minimal. They’re all slightly different shades of blue. I wish I could pick the color for the shift so it would be easy to identify at a glance, like red, green and blue.
