Every figure on this page is computed from the inputs you enter, by the method stated below it. The only constants HeadcountDesk supplies are the published federal payroll tax rates and the overtime multiplier, each cited where it is used. The defaults are a worked example to replace with your own.
An HR mobile app for employees does five things from the phone: the handbook read and acknowledged, the employee's own file visible, the timesheet submitted, PTO requested against a balance, and the onboarding tasks closed. A small employer needs those five and no more, and the record on the employer's side of every one. The onboarding checklist on this site scopes the tasks free; HeadcountDesk Pro is the app and the record.

Acknowledge, view, submit, request, close
The handbook signed on the phone; the contract and the letters readable; the timesheet submitted with the overtime split; the PTO request against the balance; the onboarding items ticked. Five verbs, and the app is judged on all five.
The record behind each one
Each action lands in the employee's file with a timestamp: the acknowledgement, the timesheet, the request and its approval. Pro keeps that; the employee sees their side of it.
The reminders
Unsigned after a week, timesheet not submitted, review due: to the person who has to act. That is the difference between an app and a form.
