About this app

SmartShift is the modern shift calendar and roster companion for shift workers, healthcare professionals, first responders, and industry teams across the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) and Europe. 100% free to use with cloud sync – and upgradeable to a free Freemium tenant for full web access at any time!

🌟 WHY SMARTSHIFT FOR DACH & EUROPE?
• TAILORED FOR DE, AT & CH: Built for European shift work. Covers public holidays by state and canton, collective agreements (TVöD, TV-L, AVR), and tax-free shift premiums (§ 3b EStG).
• 100% FREE & CLOUD SYNC: All individual features remain permanently free – including encrypted cloud sync so your roster is safe when switching devices.
• FREE FREEMIUM TENANT WITH WEB ACCESS: Activate your free 1-user tenant with one click to manage shifts and time tracking via desktop browser on your PC or Mac.
• PRIVACY-FIRST & GDPR: End-to-end encrypted storage, zero ads, no subscription traps, and hosting on secure European servers.

☁️ LEVEL UP: SMARTSHIFT CLOUD FOR TEAMS & COMPANIES
Tired of typing off paper rosters or getting last-minute shift changes via chat? Introduce SmartShift to your team leader or employer! The SmartShift Cloud connects teams and stations:

• Live Duty Rosters with Change Diff: New rosters land directly on your phone. When shifts are changed, you see exact schedule differences at a glance and confirm them digitally.
• Automatic Rest Period Protection: Built-in statutory checks for required rest intervals (min. 11 hours) and maximum shift hours – preventing unlawful back-to-back shifts.
• Smart Shift Swap Marketplace: Trade shifts easily with qualified colleagues right inside the app without coordinator emails.
• Shift Wishes & Leave Requests: Submit preferred days off and vacation requests digitally.
• Time Clock & Kiosk Terminals: Clock in/out via your mobile app or on-site at hardware kiosk terminals using NFC chip cards or QR codes.
• Expense Scanner & DATEV Payroll: Photograph travel receipts; the cloud synchronizes them directly with payroll systems (DATEV LODAS / Lohn & Gehalt).
• Works Council Privacy Mode: Transparent attendance tracking designed to respect employee privacy without intrusive live minute-by-minute surveillance.

📅 PERSONAL SHIFT PLANNING & CALENDAR
• Shift Templates: Build presets for Early, Late, Night, Split, or On-Call shifts with custom colors and auto-break deduction.
• Shift Rotation Generator: Project recurring patterns (e.g. 2E-2L-2N-4Off) across the year in seconds.
• Google Calendar Sync: Export shifts into a dedicated calendar on your device.
• Home Screen Widgets: Keep track of your shift today and monthly hour progress right from your home screen.

⏰ SMART ALARMS
• Automatic Alarm Clock: SmartShift sets your system alarm automatically according to your next shift time.
• Block Reminders: Evening notifications before a new block of shifts begins.

💼 TIME TRACKING, ALLOWANCES & TAX
• Tax Allowance Calculator: Automatic breakdown of tax-free night, Sunday, and holiday shift premiums (§ 3b EStG).
• Target vs. Actual Hours: Precise working time and overtime balance management.
• Home Office Tracker: Built-in tax deduction counter with PDF/CSV export for tax authorities.
• 1-Tap Sick Leave: Instant sick day logging with electronic medical certificate (eAU) reminders.

☀️ VACATION & BRIDGE DAY OPTIMIZER

  • Data is encrypted in transit
  • Data can’t be deleted

What’s new

New:
• In the calendar and in the statistics you now see your on-site presence days, home office days and vacation days directly for your tax return.
Improved:
• The shift legend in the calendar now sits in a fixed bar above the monthly summary so the calendar height stays steady when browsing months.
• Time-tracking profiles and shift-roster profiles are cleanly separated, including during sync.
• Refreshed visual design with clearer surfaces and easier-to-read time figures.
Several bug fixes.
