Check your regulator's own form. The printable version lists the source behind every field. CSV versions have an instruction row above the headings.
Then date your filled-in copy.
Keep the completed copy and its source records. A time receipt dates those exact bytes; it does not establish that an entry is true or accepted. Save a new copy after each shift.
Your record, one step at a time.

How to keep notes that hold up
Write notes as soon as you can. Keep the original account rather than replacing it later; the venue decides what weight it gets.
- Write it down straight away, on paper or in the box on a step.
- Put the date, time and place at the top, and who you spoke to.
- Use their words where you can; separate what you saw from what you were told.
- Sign or initial a paper note, photograph it and add the photo.
- Never edit an old note. Add a new dated entry when something changes. A device save time is not independent time evidence or proof of event order.

Real cases: why the saved copy matters.
Real cases where dated records mattered. We don’t claim a time receipt would have changed the result.
US - Florida · 2002
Check false log claims and missed hours apart
A person doing court ordered service disputed a finding that the hour logs were false. The appeal court found too little proof of false entries. It kept the ruling ending probation for uneven monthly hours and sent the case back.
Appeal decision with a mixed outcome; reversal of the falsification finding did not erase the separate violation.

Proves / Doesn’t prove
Proves
A completed time receipt shows that the exact selected file existed by the independently witnessed time. You can check whether a later copy has the same bytes. It does not establish creation time, authorship, identity, event order, location or the truth of the contents.
Doesn’t prove
It does not prove you actually volunteered, that the coordinator or venue code is genuine, where you were, or that a school, court, probation office or funder will accept the hours; they decide that.
A receipt cannot establish attendance, honest hours or a genuine sign-off. A colluding supervisor could sign a false record.
These are the bounds of a completed proof. The local tester does not establish any time. The chosen court, scheme or regulator decides what to accept.
Questions, answered plainly.
Your file stays on your device. During normal receipt creation, your device sends a randomized code made from its fingerprint, plus encrypted recovery data. It doesn't send the plain fingerprint or the random value that opens the code. Keep the original file and the complete receipt for checking. Privacy Policy.
Does a time receipt prove I volunteered?
A completed time receipt shows that the exact selected file existed by the independently witnessed time. You can check whether a later copy has the same bytes. It does not establish creation time, authorship, identity, event order, location or the truth of the contents.
Will my school, court or probation officer accept it?
They decide, and most ask for a signed form from the organization. A time receipt works as a dated backup alongside that signature, not a replacement.

Context for this answerDo you upload my files?
Your file stays on your device. During normal receipt creation, your device sends a randomized code made from its fingerprint, plus encrypted recovery data. It doesn't send the plain fingerprint or the random value that opens the code. Keep the original file and the complete receipt for checking.
What if the coordinator never signs or loses the form?
If you receipt your own log and a photo of the sign-in at the time, you have a dated record of what it said that day. You still need the coordinator to confirm the hours if the requirement demands a signature.
Why not just use a free tracking app?
Apps keep records in their own database, so you rely on them. A time receipt is independent: anyone can check that your file matches the fingerprint and date without trusting the app or the organization.
Source summary as of October 30, 2026. Check the current source and its scope.
Context for this answerCan a nonprofit use this for grant match?
It can date the exact signed timesheet files you keep. Funders still require the applicable source records and valuation basis. The receipt does not prove when the hours were worked or when the entries were written.
Source summary as of October 30, 2026. Check the current source and its scope.
Context for this answerWhat happens if I change my hours later?
The changed file has a different fingerprint, so it won't match the original receipt. That makes after-the-fact edits visible.
What does it cost?
See the Pricing page for current US-dollar plans and allowances. Fast is paused. Purchases open when receipts open.
