Common questions
Can I add more than one shift?
Yes. Add separate shifts and HourGrove combines their paid time into one daily total.
How are night shifts handled?
When an end time is earlier than its start time, that shift is treated as ending the next day.
Can I use 24-hour time?
Yes. Switch formats at the top of the calculator.
Does a break reduce worked time?
Yes. Each break is shown separately and removed from that shift’s worked duration.
