Rota Calendar
iPhone / Productivité
Does working shifts make planning your personal life difficult? Rota Calendar helps shift workers scroll through shifts, see rotas years ahead, and plan life around work with confidence.
Standard digital diaries and traditional calendars make it hard to understand long-term shift patterns. Rota Calendar is designed specifically for shift work, making it easy to see when you’re working, resting, or free — even years in advance.
Enter the date of your next shift and your rotation is calculated instantly, generating your shift rota up to five years ahead. From there, you can scroll smoothly through time to plan holidays, social events, family commitments, and important dates without guesswork.
Designed for Real Shift Patterns
Rota Calendar supports both repeating and irregular shift patterns. You can manually add, edit, or change individual shifts at any time, making it ideal for complex or changing rotas.
Shifts can be customised with your own colours, labels, times, and emojis, so different shift types are easy to recognise at a glance. Existing shifts can be adjusted individually once they are on the calendar.
For UK users, Rota Calendar can also calculate Fire Brigade Watch Colours in seconds, making it especially useful for fire service shift patterns.
Continuous Scroll Calendar
Unlike traditional month-by-month calendars, Rota Calendar uses a continuous, unbroken scrolling view. This makes it easy to see how shifts flow across weeks and months, including where schedules overlap month boundaries.
This scrollable layout makes long-term patterns clearer and faster to understand.
Sync and Compare With Other Calendars
Rota Calendar synchronises with calendars already on your device, including iOS, Google, and Facebook calendars. View your work shifts alongside personal events in one place, and add or edit these events directly within Rota Calendar to avoid clashes.
Share and Plan Together (iOS)
You can use AirDrop to instantly share your rotas and shift schedules with nearby iOS devices — perfect for partners or family members who need to know when you’re working or free.
Simple, Clear, and Trusted
Rota Calendar is built for individuals, not companies or teams. There are no accounts to create and no unnecessary features — just a clear, attractive layout designed to make shift planning easy.
Trusted by thousands of shift workers, Rota Calendar is used daily by people working offshore, in oil and gas, emergency services, and other rotating schedules.
If you need a powerful but easy-to-use shift planner that lets you scroll through years of rotas and take control of your time, Rota Calendar is built for you.
Excellent - 5 Star
Best app I’ve used. Extremely easy to add rota and use. Would, and have, recommended to anyone that needs a rota app.
The best app I’ve got! 5 Star
Of the dozens of apps I’ve got this is the best. Use it constantly and was easy to set up. I’ve moved on to a different rota but can still see my old one which is really useful. Always get a reply when I send a query and comments are taken on board.
Great App - 5 Star
Very clear - big and bold - in constant use.
