Buddy Punch is a mobile time clock for organizations that already use the Buddy Punch workforce service. Employees can clock in and out from a phone, while managers configure schedules and review time records through the service. The App Store description lists several punch methods, including PINs, QR codes, usernames, and facial recognition, along with geofencing, GPS tracking, and photo clock-ins.
Time entries are organized into timesheets with regular hours and overtime calculations. The service also describes employee scheduling, attendance controls, automatic clock-outs, and paid-time-off tracking. This makes the app a companion to a broader workforce platform rather than a standalone personal time tracker.
A paid Buddy Punch account is required, and the organization determines which features employees can use. Current business plan prices are not stated in the app listing. Location and photo features can involve sensitive employee data, so administrators should explain their policies and confirm local requirements. We have not tested payroll calculations, integrations, or location accuracy.
