Questions

How do I add up my hours for a month?

Enter each day you worked, then read the month's total. In the example, 21 weekdays of 8 h worked come to 168 h (168.00 hours).

Does the month start on the 1st?

Yes. The month card runs from the 1st to the last day of the calendar month. Use the arrows to go to the next or previous month.

Can I count overtime over a month?

If you choose an overtime rule under Overtime in Settings, HoursPad splits the month into workweeks starting on the day you choose and estimates overtime for each workweek, not for the month as a whole.

Is a month of entries kept on my device?

Yes, in this browser on your device, unless your browser blocks saving. Print or download the card if you need a copy that lasts.
