Clock In Reviews

I really liked ClockIn in the past when I first purchased it. When I no longer needed a time tracking app I uninstalled ClockIn . I now need a time tracking app with multiple job options again, so I downloaded ClockIn since it worked so well in the past.

I have attempted multiple times to restore my previous purchase and each time it tells me the purchase has been restored but then does not allow me to use ClockIn . When i try to repurchase it tells me I have already purchased ClockIn , but all it does is show me the calendar and ask me to purchase the full version. When I click that button it tells me my purchase has already been restored. It will not let me set up new jobs, it doesn’t list any of my old jobs, it gives me no buttons for clocking in or out.

It’s an okay app. But I’ve got some issues with it... I mainly downloaded it so I can keep track of my pay / hours because seems like my jobs skimming off the top. I’m trying to go back as far as January’s times and it’s kind of annoying doing it with ClockIn. I’ll click on say April 3rd to put in the times for that date and then I have change the date within that date about 4 times (clock in/clock out/ break in/ break out). I think that once you click on the date it should auto populate the Date for that entry for you so you don’t keep doing it. Kind of annoying. Another issue is once I’m done with entering the info for April 3rd it’ll jump me back to today’s date and I have to scroll alllllll the way back to put in the next date. If these little things can be fixed with the next update I’d give it a 5 stars. But for now the $5 isn’t really worth it. It’s really annoying entering information from the past. :(

Update : it’s still pretty annoying to use. The scroll thing to add the date and time keeps scrolling back on its own after I’ve entered the information. I kind of almost want to delete it.

I was hoping to be able to create a profile for myself so I would not have to continually renter my hourly pay rate, and even have the opportunity to pay $2-3 to have the ads removed.

Overall I do like that it allows me to plan my schedule out for the week ahead and I can adjust it to the real hours that I work and see the money I will making prior to taxes.

Maybe for a future version they will allow a profile to be made and even include each States taxes so I could select my state and how many individuals I clam and other things that can be taken out per paycheck and see a reality perspective of what my paycheck should be.

There was an update last week that took the previously, pretty clean, easy to read interface, and turned it into a spreadsheet. As in….ugly, not easy to look at, although the information is all there! When I clock in, it usually (but not always) clocks me in at the present time….yesterday! It was so strange, and a new problem, so I contacted tech support. Which never responded. So… This new update is REALLY rough. The little bugs are problematic. I really recommend exploring alternatives before you get the paid version of this.

I like the concept of being able to track hours and tips in one place, but I have found ClockIn to be a little fiddly in practice.

For example, often the "clock in" process fails to maintain the clocked in status and requires a manual time adjustment to "clock out." I'd also like to see more useful visualizations of income, for example by period or some given amount of days rather than just by month. A widget and or 3D touch action would be nice also to quickly start or view current hours.

Hoping that ClockIn functionality is improved to match the otherwise nice looks of ClockIn . It's worth a try for now, as there aren't too many apps that match this functionality.

The only reason I purchased the full version of ClockIn on my iPad was because it said it would be able to be used across all of your linked devices. For some reason, after doing this purchase on my iPad, I downloaded ClockIn on my 132 gb iPhone, which has plenty of storage left. ClockIn on my phone works fine until I recover my purchase from my Apple ID. It’s a pain not being able to use it on my phone due to ClockIn crashing every time I open it, even repeating the process by redownloading. Still crashes. Otherwise, I really like using ClockIn on my iPad, I just wish it wouldn’t keep crashing on my iPhone as soon as I open it.

Overall it is a great app and a great way to keep track of your hours but unfortunately the pay rate is not quite accurate due to the fact that there is not a state tax reduction option, in Nevada the state tax is 8% only if there was an option to apply this... if ClockIn is updated to have this option or something similar i would gladly change my rating to five stars... really love ClockIn hopefully this can be changed so i can continue to use...once again i would gladly change my rating if this is taken into consideration

It is very inconsistent and populates incorrectly. I will go to enter in a time and the dial moves it to another time. Super frustrating since I have to really pay attention. Also, I will enter my ending time and close out. Then go back in at a later time and it still has me as working. Another frustrating thing is when I login first thing in the morning, it will still have yesterday as the date, so if I am not paying attention it will save it as working the previous day.

ClockIn has a lot of great functions and would fit all of the needs I’m looking for except for one which is going to make the $ I paid a waste and I’m going to have to move on unfortunately. I actually purchased this because I read a review that noted the upgrade calculated overtime but at closer inspection it only calculates the amount you make and not the hours. When I send in the report to my boss, they still have to do the work to calculate the overtime hours. Is there any way, like quite a few reviewers have asked for, that after 8 hours ClockIn could have an option to roll over to overtime? Thank you!

Hello Guys!

I’ve been using ClockIn for a couple of weeks and I really like it. But I think you should add some other features in order for ClockIn to be one of the best in the market now for self-employed people.

One of the features should be to organize invoices on ClockIn once created and shared. With this I mean: Once you creat an invoice it should be filed on a section with the selected entries, and once that invoice is paid it should have an option that me, as an user, can put “Paid”. And those entries reflect as paid on the Job selected.

Right now I’m lost with which date of specific job are paid because there’s no a way to mark them.

But really like the design and the way it works.

Also if you could make ClockIn web-based it would be awesome. That way you can organize better and work with your invoicing in an amazing way. There are no such an app with that ability but you can be that one.

Hope you can take under consideration. ✌🏻

ClockIn is a great organizational tool that clearly takes advantage of the software that it is on. The only problem that I have had with it so far is that the switches to toggle on and off certain stats when sharing (like rate and tips) do not seem to have any effect. If this is fixed I would easily rate ClockIn 5 stars.
Another suggestion that some people could find helpful is further integration with Siri and shortcuts. This is not required, but would be cool to see such a future-forward app take even greater advantage of the tools apple provides developers.
Thanks!

Been a user for a few years. Loved ClockIn. I pay the yearly fee. Ever since the big update several months ago I find it crashed way more. Just updated the newest version and the Calendar crashes every time immediately. I cannot even use it to edit my entries. If this isn’t fixed STAT, it is unusable IMO. I have to be able to edit my jobs. Just about ready to ask for a refund. Bummer.

I switched phones, I’ve been using ClockIn for 2 years on my old phone,and it’s been working great. Apparently they switched to a subscription model instead of a purchase model they had before, so now I’m going to have to pay a subscription for an app I purchased two years ago.

(Update)

After leaving this review the developers were quick to respond and they walked me through the process of restoring my purchase. I’ve used ClockIn for over 2 years now and it always works for my situation, and that was a rough week without it.

ClockIn is so worth its money!
I tried a lot of different ones before this one. I needed one that would allow multiple breaks. This one does. Also, easy to change pay period dates on. It saves me a tremendous amount of time from when I used to manually have to track my hours. I highly recommend it!

Best app I’ve found to track my hours. Love the slick design and how easy it is to use. Very pricey to be ad free but it’s worth it since I really disliked the other apps. I wished it had the option to just round up the hours in 15 min increments or would intuitively select the same day for the end time. But it’s great !! Highly recommended

Clock in has a very easy to use layout and very logical app mechanics. It gives you the ability to program in a specific time range or just press and hold to start a shift right when you press the button. You can enter in break time, different pay rates, and things like overtime and different jobs. You can also edit any of these after the fact. One last good feature is the ability to export shift data via email. I really liked how ClockIn gives you access to all features for a limited quantity of recorded shifts. The full version also comes at a very reasonable price and a one time payment. In conclusion, if you are working as a handyman or anything where you are recording your own hours, this is ClockIn you want. This is not a sponsored review.

Overall, very user friendly app. By far one of the best on the market.

However, when entering a date for a shift manually, would be helpful if the END date automatically shifted to same date as START date. Also, for the breaks instead of having to enter a specific time, would like the ability to just choose 30 minute break.

These changes would make it a FANTASTIC app to have.

I’ve been using it for a couple months now. Lots of good features, able to put in an hourly rate per job, 1.5x, 2x etc. Pleasing to look at. One option that would be kind of cool to add in future updates is setting a pay period and having auto overtime calculate after 40 or whatever. Otherwise I plan to continue to use ClockIn regardless. Well done developers.

Had to move from a previous app hasn’t updated for three years and ClockIn is as close to that app and some ways better. If I could choose one thing they could add is a option that when you clock out it pops up ask if you want include a note if yes it goes and lets you place one in there instead of having to click on the one and then add it. But overall it’s a great smooth running app with no bugs that I can tell. Keep up the good work.

I love ClockIn! I’ve used it religiously to keep track of my hours at work. I’d love to have some sort of Apple Watch support with basic start and stop buttons so I can just use my watch until I have a chance to get to my phone to keep track of my hours worked that day. and I would also like some sort of overtime tracker based on a limit of time already worked with normal time, and then, after reaching that limit, overtime starts to be added in.

First of all ClockIn is really incredible. I use it for my business all the time. It’s by far the cleanest and easiest time app I’ve seen and frankly I don’t want to looking any where else. Pro features are definitely worth it and it’s great that it works on every Apple product I own.

The one feature that I really need is something to help me set timer budgets per job/client in the deplete them as a clock hours. This way I can set a goal for how many hours I need to spend on a project and stay on task and within budgeted time.

This could be a feature you could turn on or off per each job.

Also, I’m not sure if this is a thing yet, but if there was a way to see how much time you have spent working on a specific day instead of having to add up all of the hours that would be really cool. Like a daily hour accrual.

Update: they promptly fixed the glitch and it’s great again. I had to temporarily use a different app but after a few days the glitch was fixed and I’m back on this one. So grateful for a prompt developer. Really satisfied with ClockIn.

I’ve been using ClockIn for a while now and since the most recent update it will no longer allow me to edit the start/stop times so if I forget to clock in exactly on time, I can’t correct it. I need this glitch fixed ASAP or I will have to switch apps

Update from 3 to 5 Stars.

Props to the developer for his fast response willingness to update his app based on suggestions and or feature requests. We tend to forget that everyone’s workflow is different and as such the apps we download and try may not have all the features we want right out of the gate.

With that said, the only thing needed for this to be the perfect app for me is the ability to clock in, pause or clock out of multiple shifts and or Jobs. Based on the clean design of ClockIn it might even be best to have a screen dedicated with the list of open Shifts and or Jobs that way you can easily pause, clock in and clock out what ever open shifts you have from one screen. The last thing that would be awesome for me with the above is the ability to clock into multiple shifts and or Jobs at once.

Thanks to the developer for all their hard work and for making this an awesome app!

=========================

Clean App, like the shifts and jobs feature however setting time manually is a pain. I was hoping to see a start and stop and or pause. Even a simple clock in and out feature would be nice.

So I needed something simple and easy, and this is really affordable and it was worth the $3.99, I think the whole year is like $31 which I think is pretty cool anyways I needed something to help me track my time and this works beautifully. You put in the amount you are trying to accomplish or that you do accomplish, and then you can add in your brakes clock in and clock out. You can adjust your time when you mess up lol but for the most part, it gives you all of the tools you need and you can put your business name at the top, which makes you feel like you have a successful business, even if it’s part time! I completely 100% recommend ClockIn
