The Simple Timesheet mobile app is here, on iOS and Android

Time tracking fails for one boring reason: people log their hours too late. When a timesheet is filled in on Friday afternoon for the whole week, the numbers become an approximation, and every report built on top of them inherits that approximation.

The teams using Simple Timesheet told us the same story again and again. Consultants on client sites, technicians in the field and managers between two meetings all wanted to record their time at the moment the work happened, not once they were back at a desk. That is exactly what the mobile app is for.

The app opens on the current week. Days sit in a row at the top, your total for the selected day is right underneath, and the target hours are displayed next to it so you always know where you stand.

At the bottom of the screen, a progress bar compares your total time against what is expected and shows the remaining hours. Nobody has to open a report to find out whether something is missing.

Tap the plus button, and the entry sheet slides up with your current project already selected. Duration shortcuts cover the most common cases, the plus and minus buttons handle everything else, and a note field records what you actually did.

That is the whole interaction: pick a duration, add a note if it is useful, save. No timer to start and forget, no dropdown hunting, no keyboard gymnastics on a small screen.

The app is not a separate product with its own data. You sign in with the credentials you already use on the web, including multi-factor authentication if you have enabled it, and your teams, projects and permissions follow you automatically.

Every entry logged on a phone is immediately visible in the web dashboards, included in Excel exports and available through the API. Managers keep working exactly where they were working before.

Plenty of mobile time tracking apps double as surveillance tools, with location tracking, activity monitoring or periodic screenshots. We deliberately did none of that.

Simple Timesheet records what your team declares, nothing more. That is what makes adoption possible: people fill in a timesheet willingly when it takes ten seconds and does not follow them around.

If your team already uses Simple Timesheet, install the app from the App Store or Google Play and sign in. There is nothing to configure.

If you are new, create a free account on the web first, add your projects and invite your team, then let everyone install the app. The free plan covers up to 10 users forever, with no credit card required.
