Jimmy by Warren
Warren's native iPhone app (Jimmy by Warren) keeps your time tracking, projects, reports, and invoices always within reach. It's a companion to Warren for Mac — data syncs between devices so what you log on your phone shows up on the Mac the moment you reconnect.
Overview
The app has four tabs along the bottom of the screen:
Timer
The Timer tab is the default view when you open the app. Use it to start a live timer or add a manual time entry for work you've already done.
Starting a timer
Select a project
Tap the Project dropdown and choose from your active projects. Projects are synced from Warren for Mac.
Choose a task type
Pick from the built-in task types (Design, Development, Procurement, etc.) to categorise the work. Defaults to the last type you used.
Add a note (optional)
Tap Add a note… to describe what you're working on. The note appears on the time entry when it syncs to Mac.
Tap Start
The timer counts up. Tap Stop when you're done — the entry is saved immediately and will sync to your Mac on next connection.
Weekly goal
The top of the Timer screen shows a progress ring and your total hours for the current week against your goal (set in Warren for Mac under your team member profile). The day-of-week bar (M T W T F S S) highlights today and shows which days have logged entries.
Manual entry
Tap + Add manual entry below the timer to log hours you've already worked. Pick the project, task type, date, start time, and end time. Manual entries sync to Mac the same way as timer-based entries.
Projects
The Projects tab shows all active projects from your Warren workspace. At the top of the screen, three summary stats show your week at a glance:
| Stat | What it shows |
|---|---|
| This Week | Number of projects with active time entries this week |
| Recent | Total number of recent projects |
| This Month | Total hours logged across all projects this month |
Filtering projects
Use the filter pills below the stats to narrow the list:
Each row shows the project name, color swatch, entry count for the week, and total hours this month. Tap a project to view its detail and log time directly from there.
Reports
The Reports tab shows your personal time summary. Switch between Week, Month, and Quarter using the segmented control in the top-right corner.
Summary metrics
| Metric | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Total | All hours logged in the period |
| Billable | Hours logged to billable projects, plus the billable percentage |
| Daily Avg | Average hours per worked day in the period |
Daily breakdown
The chart below the summary shows a bar for each day of the week. A horizontal line marks your daily goal. Today is highlighted in the accent color. Tap any bar to see the individual entries for that day.
Invoices
The Invoices tab shows a read-only view of your studio's invoice data, synced from Warren for Mac.
| Field | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Outstanding | Total dollar value of all unpaid invoices |
| Unpaid | Number of invoices awaiting payment |
| Overdue | Number of invoices past their due date |
| Paid · 30D | Amount collected in the last 30 days |
Syncing with Mac
Jimmy by Warren syncs with Warren for Mac over your local WiFi network or VPN using the same WiFi/VPN Sync mechanism as Mac-to-Mac sync. Both devices must be on the same network and WiFi Sync must be enabled on the Mac.
Enable sync on Mac
On your Mac, go to Settings → Sync → Enable WiFi Sync. The Mac starts listening for connections on your local network.
Connect on iPhone
On your iPhone, open Warren and tap the sync icon (↻) in the top-right of the Timer tab. Warren scans your local network for the Mac and connects automatically.
Sync runs automatically
After the initial connection, Warren syncs on launch and after each time entry is saved — as long as both devices are on the same network. Time entries logged offline are queued and sync the next time a connection is available.
