Fairhour support

A free iPhone app for teams across time zones: everyone's day side by side, a time that works today, and for a meeting that repeats, the early and late slots shared out fairly, week by week. Free — no purchases, no ads. For iPhone, on iOS 18 or later, in English, French, German and Italian.

Fairhour is coming to the App Store.

Ask us

A question, something that went wrong, a city that is missing or a translation that reads badly: email hello@everswift.in. Tell us your iPhone's iOS version and Fairhour's, from Settings → Version in the app, and what you did just before.

Questions

Where are my people and meetings kept?

On your iPhone. If you are signed in to iCloud, Fairhour also keeps them in its private space in your own iCloud account, so another iPhone signed in to the same account has them too. We cannot see either. The privacy policy says exactly what is kept, and where.

How does Fairhour decide what is fair?

Every minute of a meeting gets a burden for each person, from their own hours. It is a stated formula, not a measurement, and not a judgement of anyone:

0Inside their working hours, on a working day
1Within an hour of the start or end of their working hours
2Within two hours of it
3Further away, or any waking minute of a day off
4Inside their sleep window

A meeting's burden for a person is the sum over its minutes, divided by 60: an hour asleep is 4.0, an hour at work 0. A time that breaks anyone's “never before” or “never after” is never offered. Best time is the quarter hour where the most any one person carries is lowest, then the lowest total. For a meeting that repeats, each occurrence is planned on its own date, with every clock as it is that day, and its burdens are added to a running tally per person, so the early and late slots are shared out over the weeks. The whole method is in the app, under Settings → How Fairhour scores.

What does a link I send contain?

The meeting's start, its length, the time zones and the title, if you gave one. Never anyone's name. It opens a page on everswift.in that shows the time in the reader's own time zone and in each of the others; everything after the “#” is read in their browser and never sent to us. Anyone can open it, with Fairhour or without it.

My town is not in the list of cities.

Fairhour's cities are those with more than 15,000 people, from GeoNames. Pick a nearby city in the same time zone: the times will be the same, and the sunrise and sunset close to your own.

I can't see “Find a time in your words”.

It is read by the language model built into iOS, so it needs iOS 26 or later on an iPhone with Apple Intelligence turned on. Without it the field is hidden; Best time finds the same time from a tap.

Times show in 24 hours and I want 12, or the other way round.

Fairhour follows your region, as iOS sets it in Settings → General.

How do I delete everything?

In Fairhour, Settings → Delete all data. It lists what goes before it deletes: everyone you added, your teams, your meetings with their times and tallies, your own hours and the widgets' copy, on this iPhone and in your iCloud. It cannot be undone. Deleting the app removes only what is on the iPhone, so use Delete all data first if you want the iCloud copy gone too.

What does Fairhour cost?

Nothing. No purchases, no subscription, no ads and no account.
