Questions & answers
Frequently asked questions about Tyempo
Everything important about tracking your hours with Tyempo – answered briefly.
Is Tyempo free?
Yes, you can download Tyempo for free and track your time without buying anything. Extra features such as export, iCloud sync and automatic clock-in are optional with Premium as an in-app purchase.
Do I need an account?
No. Tyempo works without an account, login or sign-up. Your data stays on your device – or in your private iCloud if you use sync with Premium.
Does Tyempo work offline?
Yes. Time tracking runs locally on your device. You need an internet connection for iCloud sync with Premium and for purchases and restoring purchases.
How does Tyempo calculate my overtime?
You set your target hours for each weekday. Tyempo subtracts the target from the time you worked and keeps a running time balance. Absences such as vacation or sick days lower that day’s target automatically.
Can I start with an existing overtime balance?
Yes. Enter your current balance when you start, so your time balance is right from day one.
Are breaks taken into account?
Yes. You log breaks as separate entries, including timed breaks of 15, 30 or 60 minutes. Optionally, Tyempo helps you with break rules based on German working time law.
Can I add hours I forgot to log?
Yes. Add a forgotten start afterwards, and create, edit or duplicate any entry by hand.
Does Tyempo work for night shifts?
Yes. Tyempo tracks shifts past midnight continuously and automatically splits them across the calendar days.
Can I export my timesheet?
Yes. With Premium you export your hours as a CSV file or a PDF timesheet, for example for your employer or your own records.
Can I track time by project?
Yes. You assign entries to projects in their own colors, tasks and tags, and you can set an hourly rate per project to see your earnings.
Does Tyempo remind me to clock in and out?
If you like: to clock in on your work days, when you forgot to clock out, and when you’ve reached your daily target.
Does Tyempo work on multiple devices?
Yes, with Premium Tyempo syncs your data between your devices through your private iCloud. Without sync, it stays on each device.
Can I lock the app?
Yes. With the app lock via Face ID or Touch ID your timesheet stays private. The app lock is free.
Is Tyempo available for Android?
An Android version is in the works. As soon as it’s available, you’ll find the Google Play link here.
Does Tyempo replace my employer’s time tracking?
Tyempo is a tool for documenting your own working time. Whether and how your employer has to record working hours depends on the law, your collective agreement or your contract; the app is not legal advice.
