Activity settings - Accounting for overnight workers

I work over night and the Activity settings do not account for this.
Day Cutoff Time - Currently only between 12AM and 5AM. It would be nice to be able to set this for any hour in the 24 hour period
Automatic Tracking Schedule - I have to set it to track from 12AM to 11:49 PM because my work hours are from 6PM to 7AM. I think an easy solution would be to create segments (allowing for split schedule in a day)

Rize supports this actually. Just disable all the days in Automatic Tracking Schedule and Rize will track 24/7. However, keep in mind that if you manually pause Rize, it will not auto restart tracking until you manually restart it.
Do you often work between 5am and 6am?

Thanks for getting back to me. By the way, super cool work. I've been craving something like this for 7 years.
Sorry, I should have been clearer in my original message. Thing is that I don't actually want it to track 24/7. I would like schedule out automatic tracking to occur in a time period that goes past midnight.
Example:
Desired schedule - Tues - Thurs, 10PM to 2AM (2 nights of 4 hour periods that goes over midnight)
Trying to do this with the current set-up this looks like:
- Tues: 10pm - 11:59pm (cannot set timer to 2AM as start bust be before end)
- Weds: 12am - 2am (now I cannot set another scheduled block for Wed 10pm, thus I miss the second half of the work day)
- Thurs: 12am - 2am
Current solutions:
- Track manually
- Track 24 hours
- Change my timezone to better align my schedule to a day-walker. Then have to manually convert back to my actual timezone
Desired solution:
- Allow users to set multiple scheduled chunks for a given day:
- i.e. Weds: 12am - 2am; 10pm - 11:59p
- Make the scheduler continuous over 7 days so that you can just mark your scheduling hours like you would with a calendar. Vague visual example attached
Yes, my current work schedule has my day ending around 8am-9am. I maintain the sleep cycle on off days.
