About the Working Timer integration

A tradesperson wrapping up a job on site rarely has a spare minute to open an app, tap through menus and log their hours properly, so timesheets get rebuilt from memory at the end of the week and hours quietly disappear from invoices and payroll. A manager ends up chasing five different people for five different versions of the same shift, and by the time the numbers are sorted the pay run is already late.

Connected to Mobile Message through Zapier, a reply from a staff member's phone can do that logging instead, without anyone opening Working Timer at all. A short text sent at the start of a shift can trigger a counter punch-in, and the same kind of message at knock-off time can punch them out again. A quick note about what happened on site can turn into a note attached to that day's record, and a longer update sent by text can create a work record for the project without anyone touching a laptop or a clock-in tablet.

None of this needs the crew to learn new software or remember a login for a system they only open once a week. They already send texts on site, so the timesheet fills itself in behind the scenes, and a manager gets hours logged the same day a shift happens rather than reconstructed from memory a week later.

A Zapier account and subscription is required for this integration. Please view Zapier's pricing page for further information.

Working Timer + SMS: common questions

Can a staff member clock in and out of Working Timer just by texting?

Yes. Once the accounts are connected through Zapier, an inbound text can trigger a counter punch-in or punch-out in Working Timer, so a shift can be logged without opening the app on site.

Can a text message create a work record in Working Timer?

A longer text update can be set up to create a work record in Working Timer, and a shorter one can be saved as a note against that day, giving a manager a record without chasing anyone for details later.

How do I connect Mobile Message and Working Timer without a developer?

You build the connection in Zapier using your Mobile Message and Working Timer accounts, choosing an inbound text as the trigger and a Working Timer action such as punching in or creating a note, all without writing any code.
