Manage your subscription

All TimeCardRobot subscriptions are billed through your Apple ID, so changes happen in Apple's settings — not inside the app.

  • View or cancel: open System Settingsyour Apple IDSubscriptionsTimeCardRobot. Canceling stops auto-renewal but keeps access until the end of your current period.
  • Restore purchases on a new Mac: install TimeCardRobot from the Mac App Store, then in the app's paywall click Restore Purchases. Make sure you're signed into the same Apple ID that made the original purchase.
  • Lifetime purchase not unlocking? Same fix — click Restore Purchases in the paywall. Lifetime is tied to your Apple ID, not the specific Mac.
  • Refunds: Apple handles refunds directly at reportaproblem.apple.com. We can't refund App Store purchases on your behalf.

Common issues

iCloud sync isn't working / my data is missing on another Mac. Confirm both Macs are signed into the same Apple ID, that iCloud is enabled for TimeCardRobot (System Settingsyour Apple IDiCloudSaved to iCloudTimeCardRobot toggle on), and that both Macs are online. Initial sync can take a few minutes for large libraries.

PDF export is missing fields or looks wrong. Make sure the production has a contract type and payroll company selected on the Show tab. The Cast & Crew and Entertainment Partners templates use different field layouts — TimeCardRobot picks the template that matches your selected payroll company.

Back up your data. For a full backup, choose FileExport Show Library to save every production — with all crew, weeks, and entries — to a single file. Right-click an individual production in the sidebar and choose Export Show if you'd rather back up one show at a time. Stash exports in iCloud Drive, Dropbox, or wherever you keep backups.

Free trial ended too quickly. The 14-day in-app trial starts when you first open the app. If you're seeing the paywall sooner than expected, you may have a previous install on the same Apple ID. Email us with the date of first install and we'll sort it out.

System requirements

  • macOS 15.0 (Sequoia) or later
  • An Apple ID signed into the Mac App Store
