Add an "on break" button to time tracking

Feature Requests

We need an "on break" button in time tracking so my staff can take breaks without being forced to clock out of the job entirely. In our old system, they could pause time and resume, but right now they have to clock out completely and then clock back in when they return to the job. This creates friction and administrative overhead for both staff and management.

Having a simple pause/resume toggle would let crews step away for breaks, lunch, or quick errands while staying clocked into the same job, eliminating the need to re-select the job and deal with split time entries.

    Notify me when an employee forgets to clock back in from a break

    When one of my crew takes a break and forgets to clock back in, I need to get notified so I can follow up in real time. Right now there's no way to know it happened until I'm reviewing timesheets — by then it's a headache to sort out.

    I came from BusyBusy which would alert me when someone went on break and didn't return within a certain window. I need that same safety net in Handoff.

    Ideally I'd set a max break duration (e.g. 30 minutes) and if someone hasn't clocked back in by then, I get a push notification on my phone so I can reach out to them directly.

    Dedicated Button for Breaks

    Add a dedicated break button to the live time clock experience (allowing crew to start and stop breaks in real-time while clocked in), rather than requiring workers to remember their break duration and enter it after clocking out.
