New in the Monthly Calendar
We have improved the display of shifts on the busiest days. Shifts now appear as more readable compact pills.
Each day, you can see up to 3 rows of shifts without cuts. If there are too many shifts, a +N indicator appears to show you how many are left.
The order of shifts is clearer and more consistent throughout the month.
Result: a cleaner, denser, and more useful monthly view, especially when you have many consecutive shifts.

What's new in version 3.8
This update brings major improvements to how Turnista tracks your time off and estimates your earnings — now fully adapted for workers across Europe, the UK, and beyond.
Sick & Vacation Pay Tracking
Turnista can now estimate your compensation for sick days and vacation time. You can configure each shift type with your actual pay rate — as a percentage of your hourly wage or as a fixed daily amount (useful for UK Statutory Sick Pay and similar systems). Your earnings report now shows a clear breakdown: Work, Sick Leave, and Vacation, side by side.
Smarter Statistics
The distribution chart (Weekday / Weekend / Night) now correctly reflects only your actual work shifts, giving you a more accurate picture of your working patterns. Vacation and Sick Leave appear in their own dedicated section, separate from your work summary.
Better International Support
The app is now fully translated into Italian, German, Spanish, and French, with 100% coverage across all screens and reports.
Smoother on iPhone Pro
Calendar scrolling now runs at 120fps on ProMotion displays (iPhone 15 Pro and later). The Year view also benefits from hardware-accelerated rendering for zero dropped frames.
Under the Hood
Improved stability during app startup, better handling of data updates across iPhone, Apple Watch, and widgets, and a more robust database migration system to keep your data safe across updates.
