Description

Does working shifts make planning your personal life difficult? Rota Calendar helps shift workers scroll through shifts, see schedules years ahead, and plan life around work with confidence.

Standard digital calendars make it hard to understand long-term shift patterns. Rota Calendar is built 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 schedule up to five years ahead. From there, scroll smoothly through time to plan vacations, social events, family commitments, and important dates without guesswork.

Designed for Real Shift Work

Rota Calendar supports both repeating and irregular shift patterns. You can manually add, edit, or adjust individual shifts at any time, making it ideal for complex or changing schedules.

Customize shifts with your own colors, labels, times, and emojis so different shift types are easy to recognize at a glance. Individual shifts can be edited once they are on the calendar, giving you full control over your schedule.

Continuous Scroll Calendar

Instead of rigid month-by-month views, Rota Calendar uses a continuous, unbroken scrolling calendar. This makes it easy to see how shifts flow across weeks and months, including where schedules overlap month boundaries.

Long-term work patterns become clear and easy to understand at a glance.

Sync and Compare With Your Calendar

Rota Calendar syncs 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 conflicts.

Share Your Schedule (iOS)

Use AirDrop to instantly share your 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 Built for Individuals

Rota Calendar is designed for individuals, not companies or teams. There are no accounts to create and no unnecessary features — just a clean, easy-to-use layout designed to make shift planning simple.

Trusted by thousands of shift workers, Rota Calendar is used daily by people working rotating schedules, offshore roles, oil and gas, emergency services, and other non-standard work patterns.

If you need a powerful yet easy-to-use shift planner that lets you scroll through years of schedules 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.

As I work in the oil rigs 2 weeks on 2 weeks off this app was perfect for working out my rota in seconds! And worth every penny!

What's new (v8.4.10)

* Fixed an issue where the calendar could appear blank when the Rota start date was set several years in the past.

This is a big update.

Rota Calendar has been rebuilt on a new cross-platform foundation, making it faster to improve, easier to expand, and ready for new features across more platforms going forward.

I’ve worked hard to keep everything feeling familiar, but if you notice anything not quite right, please get in touch — I read every message and genuinely appreciate the feedback.

Rota Calendar Cloud sync is now available as part of the Supporter subscription. If you rely on Rota Calendar, subscribing is the best way to unlock this feature and support continued development — it helps me keep pushing the app forward and building what comes next.

Thanks for using Rota Calendar.
