What is mobile time tracking?
Track work hours anytime, anywhere with ease
Mobile time tracking is the process of recording employee work hours directly from a smartphone or tablet, rather than relying on punch cards or desktop software. A mobile time tracking app lets employees clock in and out from wherever they are, and sends that data to a central system in real time.
Modern mobile time tracking apps go well beyond a basic timer. They capture GPS location, verify employee identity, log breaks and overtime, and organise hours by project or client.

How does mobile time tracking work with Jibble?
Simple clock-ins and seamless management
Jibble’s mobile time tracking app is built around three core principles: speed, security, and accuracy. Employees clock in from their phone using facial recognition, which confirms their identity in seconds. A GPS stamp records their location at the time of clock-in, adding a layer of verification that supports both fraud prevention and compliance auditing.
All time entries are synced to timesheets in real time. Managers can then review and approve timesheets from their phone before the data flows into payroll — making the whole process faster, more secure, and audit-ready.

Quick and secure clock-ins
Biometric verification that eliminates time theft and buddy punching
Start tracking time in seconds with Jibble’s facial recognition attendance system. Employees take a quick selfie on their phone and Jibble confirms their identity instantly. This removes the opportunity for buddy punching and falsified clock-ins, creating a verified record that your payroll and compliance reporting can depend on.
-
GPS-verified time entries for location-accurate records
Confirm where your team is clocking in from
View up-to-the-minute updates on your employees’ locations and current tasks directly from your phone with Jibble’s employee GPS tracking. GPS-stamped clock-ins provide a clear audit trail so that managers can verify that employees were on site at the time they claimed.

Mobile time tracking on any device
Jibble works on iPhone, Android, web, and Chrome
Jibble is available on iPhone and Android devices, as well as the web app and Google Chrome extension. Your team can clock in from whatever device they have to hand, and all data flows into the same central record — keeping attendance complete, consistent, and ready for payroll review.

Offline time tracking for remote sites
Time entries are saved locally and synced when you reconnect
Poor connectivity should never create gaps in your attendance records. Jibble’s offline time tracking stores clock-ins and time entries securely on the device when there is no internet and syncs them automatically once a connection is restored. This keeps your records complete for payroll and compliance purposes.
