Great app for time tracking and analysis
Has an outdated UI, but packs an exceptional amount of features into the app which elevates it from traditional time tracking app to a life analysis app. The app has been actively maintained for a decade (according to reviews) and is a cheaper non-subscription alternative to some of the other options within this niche. Anyway, I think it’s a great app with all you need to truly understand where your time goes— or rather, what you’re spending your time on.

Excellent time tracking app with smart design
Pros:
- easy to track activity. You only click once AFTER finished stuff so it's a lot easier to remember compared to most time tracking app that are front loading
- Many smart and thoughtful designs such as merging entries
- free version includes tons of features such as Google calendar two way sync
- no privacy concern since it is a local app
- the $7 price is well worth the price with backup/export option
Cons:
- high learning curve. It has a different philosophy compared to most time tracking app so it can take a little time to understand it
- organizing life tree is not easy. I've get used to drag and drop so this feels weird. The in app tutorial helps a lot though
- the review feature is also complicated - I didn't use it much so cannot say how useful it is
- I do hope it has iCloud sync so that I don't need to worry about losing my data
Origin comments:
I've used it for few months. It seems complicated at first, but once I get used to it, I found it's easy to track activities because I only need to click after an activity, which are more intuitive IMO.
The fact that it can also sync to Google calendar is amazing, so that I can visualize my time spent on my calendar by colour coding calendars. It's even smart enough to merge the appended entry with same name! Small design like this really make me feel the developer knows what they're doing and they're treating this app seriously.

The best thing since sliced bread
I’ve been using this app over 3 years, and it’s my favorite thing in my phone. Once you understand the power of this app, you will really appreciate it. It’s absolutely brilliant!! I use it to balance my life based on my personal values. I set my long term goals, and it keeps me paced in the short term. Life changing!

整体设计非常完美，逻辑感很强
Great app
I have been using timegolden for a couple of years now- and always seem to move away only to come back to it. 2 suggestions- a way to reset time to 0:00, and how about more subtle alerts. The alerts included are so annoying.
非常合适的应用
用了两天过来评价一下，说明虽然比较复杂，但仔细阅读后还是很好理解的。个人感觉这个软件比较贴近柳比歇夫的时间统计，就像一个冷静的旁观者，看着你这一天，这一年，甚至这一生等的时间花费。非常希望开发者可以一直坚持下去。
Best task and time management app thus far!
I have been using this app for the past five days and I am amazed how much organised I am and how much more time efficient I have become. This is a very well thought out app for those who want to make progress and make every day count. I would highly recommend a purchasing the full version to allow for all of your tasks and daily activities and goals to be part of this wonderful app.

Great
Works well
Unique & Convenient
It works a little different from what I'm used to, its better. This app is made to be used from when you get up until you go bed. Instead of starting an activity and stopping an activity, you do something, then tell Time Golden what you did, and it automatically adds the time you finished your last activity until now. If you finished your activity fifteen minutes ago, you can fix the time in your timestamps under review.
You can have it remind you every so often to tell Time Golden what your doing. There is also a mode called "Pomodoro" to use when you want to work for so long, then take a short break to stretch your arms, and repeat.
It's pretty cool; I like it. Well see how it turns out in the long run.

Very Promising - In Depth
The instructions are slightly confusing due to the language barrier, but the app is really great if you're looking for a detailed productivity/time tracking app.
