Logbook advice for new hires
I tried searching this out, but couldn't find anything... I read somewhere that some carriers can link to an app to keep track of your time. Does United have this or is it Is good 'ol paper (or digital equivalent).
After not keeping a logbook of my own for 20 years, I'm hoping for an easy button!

United doesn’t specifically have a logbook, but download the EzCCS app (its like $10/year). It’s an incredibly useful app for a lot of things, but it does have a logbook function. I don’t actually use it much but it pulls from your schedule, and then you just click and “update” or “refresh” or some button like that and it will update to actual times after flights are completed... the only thing I don’t know is how long everything stays there, or if you need to eventually transfer it out to another logbook.

That's funny. Probably just seems like something you should be doing in my mind.

Or pay the extra few bucks a year in the crew companion “log book” section For the ability of an excel file download ... with all flight data except crew member names.
I use this, add the CA name and reformat in excel. Simple and worth the bucks for excel comparability. (.csv file)
