Your next shift, now on your Lock Screen. New widgets and a Live Activity count down to your shift — and your wind-down. Glance and go. Sleep that fits your shifts.
Most sleep apps assume you sleep at night. If you work shifts, that's the whole problem — they score you against a 9-to-5 clock you don't work, so the nap you took before a night shift looks like "failure" instead of recovery.
AfterShift is built the other way around. It measures your sleep and recovery between shifts — shift-to-shift, not midnight-to-midnight — so the numbers finally match the life you actually live.
GLANCEABLE — WITHOUT OPENING THE APP
Your next shift lives on your Lock Screen and Home Screen. Widgets show the countdown to your shift, your recovery, and your plan for right now. A Live Activity counts you down to shift start — then rolls into your wind-down window — on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Start an anchor nap and watch it tick down there too. All free.
YOUR ROSTER, READ FOR YOU
Connect your calendar and AfterShift detects your shifts automatically — no typing in three weeks of rota by hand. It even spots overtime and schedule changes. Five shift types are modelled: day, evening, night, on-call, and off.
RECOVERY, TIMED TO WHEN YOU CLOCK OUT
See how ready you are for your next shift, how your sleep debt is trending across cycles, and a clear recovery plan for the hours you actually have — not a generic "aim for 8 hours" you can't reach before a 7pm start.
YES, THE NAP COUNTS
Pre-shift naps, split sleep, and on-call rest are first-class here. AfterShift knows a 90-minute nap before nights is recovery, and scores it like one.
REMINDERS TIMED TO YOUR SHIFT — FREE
Wind-down, caffeine cut-off, and nap-window reminders fire relative to your next shift start, not the clock on the wall. All free.
A COACH FOR NIGHTS, NOT MORNINGS
21 sleep techniques chosen for shift work — fall asleep faster after a late finish, reset on a turnaround, nap without the grogginess. Each one tells you when to use it and how long it takes.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your data stays on your iPhone. No account. No cloud sync. No employer dashboard. Sleep is read from Apple Health (read-only), and on Pro, explanations are generated by on-device Apple Intelligence — your data is never sent to a server.
AUTOMATIC SLEEP IMPORT
Last night's sleep from Apple Health appears on its own — open the app in the morning and it's already there.
EXPORT FOR YOUR DOCTOR OR OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH
Generate a clean PDF or CSV recovery report to share with a GP, sleep clinic, or occupational health team.

You shouldn't have to type in three weeks of rota by hand. Now you don't.
NEW — Repeating rotations
Set your cycle once and the next 8 weeks fill themselves — then keep filling. 4 on / 4 off, three-shift day → evening → night, 2-2-3, fixed nights, or build your own of any length. Just tell us which day the cycle starts.
NEW — A rota you can read at a glance
Shifts now show in colour across the week, so an 8-day cycle looks like the 8-day cycle it is — drifting across the weekdays, exactly as it does in real life.
NEW — One swap doesn't break the pattern
Change a single shift and the rest of your rotation carries on. Moved on? Delete a whole rotation in one tap, not twenty-eight.
All of it free — every pattern, any cycle length.
Also: we warn you before two shifts overlap, and rotations speak all 40 languages the app does.
