ShyftPay’s focus
Review the entered earnings, preserve the comparison, and turn an unexplained difference into a clear payroll inquiry.
We have reviewed published descriptions, not independently tested these competing apps.
| What matters | ShyftPay iPhone | NurseShift |
|---|---|---|
| Paycheck comparison | Confirmed earnings lines compared with your entered shifts and pay rules. Photo/PDF suggestions always go through review. | Published, with scanning mentioned in release notes. |
| Saved evidence | Each comparison preserves the paystub, shifts and rules used. Later edits do not rewrite an earlier comparison. | Detailed handling of immutable comparison inputs is not specified. |
| Unknown earnings | Unclear or missing categories remain unknown. A zero requires explicit confirmation that the category was not paid. | Missing-versus-zero category handling is not specified. |
| Overtime | Base-only, differential-inclusive, or weighted workweek estimates. Weighted rates use one base rate plus selected premiums, with full-week review and saved calculation details. | Weekly, daily and configurable options are advertised. |
| Devices and workplaces | One workplace per ledger, on iPhone. Encrypted manual backups; no calendar sync, iCloud sync or widgets in the iPhone app. | Multiple locations, calendar sync and widgets are advertised; current release notes say iCloud sync is free. |
| Pricing | Free tracking and one new paycheck comparison per device; rechecks of previously compared paychecks stay free. Plus: $4.99/month or $39.99/year (USD). | U.S. listing: $4.99/week or $49.99/year. |
| Payroll follow-up | Editable inquiry drafts tied to the saved comparison. PDF/CSV inquiry exports with Plus; full-ledger backups stay free. | CSV and JSON exports are advertised; inquiry drafting is not specified. |
