About this app
Nightjar is a shift work calendar and schedule planner built for people who actually work in shifts - nurses, CNAs, carers, EMTs and paramedics, firefighters, police, factory and warehouse crews, retail, baristas, security, drivers, hospitality and everyone else the 9-to-5 forgot. Plan your work schedule, see your whole rotation at a glance, track hours, overtime and pay, and wake up on time with real shift alarms.
YOUR SHIFT SCHEDULE, AT A GLANCE
• Build any rotating shift pattern in seconds from ready-made templates: 4 on 4 off, 2-2-3 Panama, Pitman, DuPont, Kelly, 24/48, 48/96, 7 on 7 off, Continental, three 12s, 6 on 4 off, permanent nights, or your own custom cycle of any length
• Your shift codes, your colors - OP, MID, CL, D, N, whatever your workplace uses
• Swap any single day in two taps: cover a shift, take a day off, change hours
• Paid leave and sick days marked clearly on the calendar
• Public holidays for 18 countries, from the US, UK and Canada to Germany, Brazil and Japan
HOURS, OVERTIME AND PAY
• Hourly rate with per-shift premiums
• Overtime per day, per week, per month or per work period - percentage uplift or a fixed rate
• See hours and earnings for this week, this month, this year, the next 30 days or your exact pay period
• A pay summary that explains itself: leave paid, sick unpaid, overtime shown
• Send a CSV timesheet of any range to check your payslip
ALARMS YOU CAN'T SLEEP THROUGH
• A real full-screen alarm before every shift - not a notification you can miss
• Different wake-up offsets per shift type: 90 minutes before an early, 60 before a late
• Alarm health check with one-tap fixes, so you know tonight's alarm will actually ring on Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo and every other phone
• Optional: keep a spare copy of your next alarm in your phone's Clock app
WIDGETS FOR YOUR HOME SCREEN
• Month widget: your whole rota on the home screen
• Next fourteen days at a glance
• Next shift card with countdown and alarm time
• All three in a light Day Edition and a dark Night Edition that follow your system theme
MADE FOR NIGHTS
• Night Edition: a dark shift calendar for checking your schedule at 2am on a night shift, without burning your eyes
• Designed like a newspaper - clear ink on calm paper, no clutter
SHARE AND SYNC
• Export your shifts to Google Calendar, so your partner and family can see when you work
• Export as an .ics file for Outlook or Apple Calendar
• Export your week or month as a clean image for the family group chat
• Share your whole rota with a code - a colleague on the same rotation imports it in seconds
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no sign-up, works completely offline
• In 13 languages: English, Deutsch, Français, Español, Italiano, Nederlands, Português, Polski, Svenska, Norsk, Dansk, 日本語 and 한국어
• Your schedule stays on your phone - with backup and restore for when you change phones
