Manual punch in and out is also available.

________

In the WiFi SSID type the work wlan name and hit save. The name is case sensetive.

In the lunch duration type the duration of lunch if you are not getting paid during lunch, and hit save (ex: 0.5 NB . not ,)

________________
# First time use

If the phones wlan is turned on, turn it off and the on again.
If the wlan was off just turn it on.

A message apperas : "Punch in based on WiFi SSID XXXXXXXX"

You actually don't have to be logged on to the wlan. The phone just needs to see it

You can now see a new line in the main window of the app.

If you want to change the punch in time, simply tap the line, change the time and hit save

Once you leave work the app simply punches out when the wifi connection is lost.

sends notifications to a service inside the app which should run all the time.

You can only regiser one punch in and one punch out per day

To go between weeks use the two buttons at the top; last week and next week.

I like the idea and effort but unfortunately it doesn't work well with my phone which has no trouble at all using the Wifi connection. Most days the recorded times are off by hours. How does it handle temporary dropouts? It should be able to ignore them.
