An app to track your hours worked (clock in & clock out times)?

Let's get it out of the way - "just write it down on paper & work it out".
No.

Right, now that one's dealt with...

I'm looking to see if anyone knows of an app where you can input your clock in & clock out times. 

*** An app that is free!! ***

I've done a bit of searching but not really found anything that ticks the box. Some overcomplicate things, others are clearly paid-for. I tried one I thought would be ok but turned out that it was another pay-for app.

All I want is an app where I can clock on at work, clock off & then track this. At the end of the week it tells me the hours I worked total & from that I can figure out if they're paying me correctly.

Now whether that's hitting a button in the app as I clock on & then off or whether that's manually entering it in an app or whatever, just something to track.

So if I clock on at 8:57 and clock off at 5:06 then we will get paid from 9:00 - 5:00 with 30mins deducted for dinner so that's 8 hours at work but 7.5 hours pay.

I say this because even better if the app can be configured in a way to tell me 8:57 - 5:06 gets me 7.5 hours pay but I don't really know what's doable at the moment.

I'm hoping at least one of you uses an app like this & can suggest something.

That isn't bits of paper everywhere.

    Have you looked at HoursTracker? It’s free and I use it for my hourly-paid freelancing work- it’s been a game changer. Don’t think it can calculate your lunch break though, but you could enter it as a break.

    You’re going to hate me for saying this  but a mini diary avoids having scraps of paper everywhere. 🤣
