Week, month, or year

Move between a week, month or year to understand your work at the level that matters. You can also step backward or forward.

  • Week

    Hours and expected earnings for one week.

  • Month

    The same picture across a month.

  • Year

    A longer view of the year.

When the current period is still in progress, ShiftGoal compares it with the same part of the previous one.

Expected earnings and hours

The top of Insights shows expected earnings from your logged shifts, next to the hours worked. Payments you have actually received are recorded separately.

  • Hours worked

    The hours in the week, month, or year you are viewing.

  • Expected earnings

    Calculated from the shifts you log. This can include regular pay, overtime, tips, and bonus. It is not money you have already been paid.

Compared with the previous period

See whether your hours and expected earnings are ahead of, behind, or close to the previous period.

  • This week with the previous week.
  • This month with the previous month.
  • This year with the previous year.

If the current period is still underway, the comparison uses the same elapsed part of the previous week, month, or year. These are comparisons of work you have logged. Insights does not predict what you will earn next.

Earnings chart

Insights includes a line chart of expected earnings. Tap or drag across it to inspect a point. A point can show the expected earnings and hours for that day, week, or month, along with context such as the average and the strongest stretch.

Week

A week is shown by day.

Month

A month is shown by calendar week.

Year

A year is shown by month.

Expected vs received

When a payday is scheduled, ShiftGoal can place the expected amount next to the payment you've recorded so you can quickly see whether they match.

You record the payment. ShiftGoal does not retrieve it from an employer or a bank. A year view can summarize the paydays that were scheduled and the ones you recorded.

Expected

The amount ShiftGoal calculated for that payday.

Received

The payment you recorded. ShiftGoal does not collect it for you.

Not recorded, or not due yet

A payday can be waiting on a payment, or still be ahead.

The difference

See whether the recorded payment matches the estimate.

Work expenses and projected net

See where your work expenses are going, and how the total compares with the previous period when a comparison is available.

Projected net is expected earnings minus work expenses. It is not cash you have received, and it is not take-home pay. A recorded payday can show a separate actual net for that pay period.

  • Expected earnings
  • Work expenses
  • Projected net

Expected earnings, minus the work expenses you record, is the projected net for the period.

Work patterns

Depending on your work history, ShiftGoal can surface patterns including your typical shift, longest streak, busiest workdays, weekend hours, and breaks.

  • Days worked
  • Average workday
  • Typical shift
  • Longest work streak
  • Longest break
  • Most worked day
  • Weekend hours

A late finish can appear in a week or month view when your history supports it. Not every pattern is shown for every period.

By workplace

See how your hours and expected earnings are split across workplaces. If you record more than one, each place can show its share of those earnings.

This uses the workplaces you enter in ShiftGoal. It does not connect to an employer, and there is no workplace filter.

Expected earnings and hours

What you logged at each workplace, and the expected earnings from those shifts.

Share

How much of the period's expected earnings came from each place.

Expenses, when you recorded them

Work expenses for that workplace, and a projected net for it when those expenses are present.

Highlights and records

Spot standout days, shifts, and personal records.

A week or month can show highlights. A year can show records, such as a highest-earning day, a longest shift, or a personal best. Not every record appears in every period.

Goal progress

See how your current earnings compare with the pace needed for your income goal.

The goal can show how far along you are, what remains, how many days are left, and what that works out to per day. Where the app can estimate it, you can also see work still remaining.

  • Ahead of pace
  • On pace
  • Behind pace
  • Complete

Pace follows progress against the goal's timeline. It is not a prediction, and ShiftGoal does not create the income.

From a list of shifts

A list of shifts tells you what happened.

Insights puts hours, expected earnings, recorded payments, work expenses, workplaces, patterns, and your income goal in one view.

Expected earnings come from the shifts you log. Received means a payment you recorded. Projected net is expected earnings minus work expenses.
