Getting started
Create a client, confirm its currency and hourly rate, and add matching keywords that commonly appear in your calendar. A General project is created automatically. Select a project on the Timer tab and tap Start.
You can use timers and manual ledger entries without granting Calendar access.
Calendar recovery
Open Recover and start a scan. Billable Recall reviews non-all-day events from the previous 14 days through the next 7 days. Events shorter than five minutes, longer than eight hours, already tracked, or previously handled are excluded.
Each suggestion must be confirmed before it becomes billable. You can adjust its duration, ignore it, or prevent that event from being suggested again.
iCloud sync
Sign in to the same Apple Account on each device and enable iCloud Drive. Keep Billable Recall enabled in iCloud settings. Open Settings inside the app and choose Refresh Sync Status.
Edits made offline synchronize after connectivity returns. Brief delays are normal because iCloud controls delivery timing. If two devices edit the same running timer while offline, Billable Recall converges on the most recent valid timer state.
Apple Watch
Install Billable Recall from the Watch app on your paired iPhone. Pro access is required for Watch features. Keep Bluetooth or Wi-Fi available and open the iPhone app once after installation so it can publish the latest state.
Watch actions are queued when the phone is unreachable and are applied when connectivity returns. The Watch interface clearly shows when an operation is queued.
Subscriptions
Billable Recall Pro is purchased through Apple. If an active purchase is not recognized, open Billable Recall Settings and tap Restore Purchases. Verify that the device uses the same Apple Account that made the purchase.
Manage or cancel a subscription in Apple Settings under your Apple Account and Subscriptions. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
Export and data
Pro unlocks CSV and PDF export from Reports. Apply the period, client, and billing-status filters first; the exported file reflects the current selection.
Entries moved to Trash can be restored or permanently deleted. Items remaining in Trash are automatically deleted after 30 days.
