A date. A note. Everything in its place.

Keep the thought. Hear it again.

Some details
are better said.

A quick handover. An idea for later. Add voice recordings to your tasks, rota notes or date notes, and listen back when you need the details.

  • Record it in the moment. Put a thought into your own words.
  • Keep it with your notes. Bring the context along with the plan.
  • Come back and listen. Pick a saved recording and play it back.

A few helpful answers

Good to know.

Explore all FAQs
Can I make a team rota and my own shift calendar?

Yes. Generate an automatic rolling rota for a team, build a manual rota, or enter a personal schedule for your own shifts and appointments.

Automatic patterns include weekdays, weekdays and weekends, selected working days and rolling work/rest blocks. Some patterns require an in-app purchase.

What happens when I share a rota link?

When someone opens your rota link in Simple Rota Maker, the app saves a separate copy with “.share” added to the name. They can work with and share that copy without changing your original.

This is a copy-based sharing flow. Editing your rota does not silently synchronise a copy that someone has already saved.

Is Simple Rota Maker free to download?

Yes. Simple Rota Maker is free to download on the App Store and Google Play. The app contains advertising and offers optional in-app purchases for additional features.

Check your app store or the purchase screen for current availability and pricing.
