What makes this useful
An approximate duration can be useful even when you did not watch the clock.
Label an opening or closing shift and keep employer and customer details out of the note. A consistent label such as “retail shift” helps connect the day you remember with the visit you saved.
A practical way to begin
- Select the duration range you remember, or use Not sure instead of inventing precision.
- Review duration beside the other details of the same visit.
- A time marker such as “Closing shift, after my break.” identifies a visit during retail shifts; it does not tell you how long the visit lasted. Keep the duration unknown if you cannot remember it.
An example of useful context
“Closing shift, after my break.”
Were these visits on the same kind of shift or on different schedules?
Use your own wording and the details you remember. A short, recognizable note makes it easier to find the visit later.
Where this fits in LooPoo
How to keep a bowel diary you can actually use explains the full workflow and its limits.
Use Check-in in the iPhone app for this part of your record. A duration range is a description, not a target to achieve.
