Whether you want to press "Start" and "Stop" buttons throughout the day or manually fill in blocks of time, tracking time across multiple devices and networks couldn't be easier. Your time can be divided into different projects and attached with different labels, so you can see which time periods are associated with which work or non-work activities.
Once you've established some statistics, there are a number of useful reports you can use to get a detailed understanding of how your time is being spent. There is also a standard calendar view. The app offers many features for free, but you can choose to pay ($5 per month and up) for more customization options and features, such as the ability to split time and add breaks.
A schedule can categorize your day for you.David Nield
Timeline is a time tracking solution well worth your attention as long as you're using an iPhone or iPad, it's not available on Android or desktop. If you do want to keep track of time with your mobile Apple device, you'll find this to be a flexible, intuitive option that mostly sticks to the basics in terms of functionality, but does everything well.
All you have to do is click Add timeline Buttons: Your "Schedule" can be social, work, relax, study, or whatever you like. Then you just start and stop the timers as needed, and the app will provide you with reports at any time. You can also set goals for how much you want to log in a day, week, or month (such as workouts).
The app quickly provides a comprehensive view of how you spend your time without overwhelming you with different screens and features. You can start using Timeline for free, and it offers additional features like multi-device syncing, long-term trend reporting, and unlimited time tracking categories for $4 per month.
Simple time tracker is not complex but offers a lot of features.David Nield
After mentioning an app that is exclusive to iPhone and iPad, it is only fair to mention an app that is only available on Android. Simple Time Tracker, as the name suggests, is as unobtrusive as possible when it comes to monitoring where your time goes. You can start and stop time periods with a click, and everything in the app is nicely laid out.
Beyond the basics, there's a lot to delve into. Different activities (such as reading or sports) can also be divided into different categories (such as work or play) and customized with their own colors and icons. You can set goals for yourself to meet specific time thresholds and get real-time reports on how your time is spent throughout the day.
The app works really well, and it lets you choose how simple or detailed your time tracking should be. You can really drill down into individual dates and times if you want, or stick to a broader overview. Perhaps best of all, the app is completely open source and free to use, but if you find the app helpful, I recommend donating to the developers.
