01 / START

Pick a job. Start.

Open MinuteMill on a phone and tap a job card. Time starts recording, and work carries on.

02 / STOP

Done? Tap to stop.

The hours are recorded against the employee and the job. No timesheet to fill in at the end of the day.

03 / SWITCH

Next job. One tap.

Tap a different job to switch. The old timer stops and the new one starts. Nothing else to remember.

Built for the working day

Your timer keeps going.

Start and stop times are saved on our server. Lock your phone or close the page; your current job keeps running. Open it again to pick up the same job and see the elapsed time.

Switching jobs stops the old timer and starts the new one together. If an entry needs correcting, your manager can fix it with a clear record of the change.

An internet connection is needed to start, stop, or switch jobs.

Leave the paper chase.

Track employee hours against the jobs they are doing, without entering the same numbers again later.

The reason behind it

Why MinuteMill exists.

MinuteMill started with a manufacturing owner who was tired of collecting paper timesheets and entering the hours later. His team needed something they could use right where they worked.

My background includes 12 years in industrial packaging. I built MinuteMill around that everyday routine: start, stop, switch, and see where the hours went.

Before you get started

A few practical questions.

How it fits into the working day.

Do employees need an email address?

No. Managers create an invitation and share the setup link. Employees choose a password and sign in with their shop code and username. An email address is optional.

Does anyone need to install an app?

No. MinuteMill works in a browser on a phone, tablet, or computer. Open the website, sign in, and choose a job.

What happens when a phone locks or the page closes?

The current timer keeps running. Open MinuteMill again to see the same job and its elapsed time. Closing the page does not stop the job; tap Stop when you finish or take a break.

Does MinuteMill need an internet connection?

Yes, to start, stop, switch jobs, or save a note. If the connection drops, the current timer keeps running. Reconnect and check that your stop or switch has been saved before moving on.

What if someone forgets to stop a timer?

A manager can correct the entry and leave a reason. The original times are retained with the correction. Employees can add notes to explain what happened, but cannot edit their recorded times.

Made for the work. Simple by design.

Good work deserves
better than a paper timesheet.
