Great app for multi tasking
I love this app!
Life saver
This little application has reduced time entry from a seriously anxiety inducing task to just another thing to do. Yes, the popup can sometimes be annoying when it pops up at an inconvenient time on a not previously entered client and project, but I’ll take that all day everyday over the alternative of trying to reconstruct what I was doing.
I’ve tried more complex, AI driven, screen monitoring alternatives, and this nice simple approach just works better for me. And no, I’d prefer it didn’t try aim for never being annoying - keep it simple. History has shown I’ll forget to log if I’m not prodded to do so.

Thanks for your review! I’m glad to hear Daily helps. If you ever have ideas for making Daily appear at more appropriate moments, or delaying a prompt in certain situations, without making it less proactive overall, I’d love to hear them.
Time Saver that Tracks Time
This is an ingenious little app that solves the annoying problem of managing and keeping a timesheet. This unobtrusive app does the heavy lifting for you and frees your mind and your time from the mundane drudgery of trying to remember what you worked on and noting it down. Set it up once with your preferences and a schedule and forget it; it will automatically run in the menu bar and pop up throughout the day to ask you what you are currently working on. Overtime, you’ll build your list of activities that you can access from a drop down menu. If you’re working on something new, simply create the task in the app and it will be available for future reference. I love it and highly recommend it if you want an accurate, low maintenance way to track your hours throughout the day and then have a printout of all your activities instantly. This syncs with iClouds and works flawlessly between laptops, Mac desktops, iPhones and iPads. 5 stars all the way.

Simple and effective
I was looking for a way to track my freelance and non-freelance hours that did not have an involved set-up process. Been using it for a couple weeks so far and it is great for the purpose. Adding additional categories was simple. The prompt pops up every twenty minutes, hit the check mark and get on with it. Catches all the time where you might have got distracted. Easy to go back and adjust if needed. Has been a very useful tool.

LOVE this app.
Makes time tracking so much easier. I have used for years. Thanks for making such an easy to use app!
Time tracking with no hassle
It’s really incredible how simple this makes my life. Having something that checks in, rather than having to plan ahead or go back in my day is some true value. I looked elsewhere and didn’t find anything near it.
99% perfect
I quickly paid for this. Does exactly what it needs to do, be annoying (but not overtly) and remind you to log time. Simple yet very useful set of settings. After using it for several months now I just set up the API connection so I could build a dashboard of my hours logged, pretty great. I work in peace now during the day knowing that my time is logged and accurate. The ONLY thing that might make this one percent better is if I could leave a little note with my log, so I could say what exactly I was just doing for the project I’m working on. This is debatable though - it might make clicking that check button slightly less straightforward, and thus more stressful. But I can see that being an optional add- log time without note. Regardless, highly highly recommend!

Hey! Thanks for your review. Glad to read Daily is helpful. Leaving notes is something many others have been asking and I hope to make this available this year. Feel free to reach out to niels@dailytimetracking.com to discuss requirements. Best, Niels.
Great for Time Tracking
I love the app and find it to be the easiest way of tracking my hours between different positions.
An excellent work tracking app
A helpful reminder tool to help keep you focused and accountable for the work you do! I love it.
Skvělý time tracker
Pracuji nepravidelně, takže je to místy otravné, ale zatím nejlepší způsob jak si udržet dlouhodobý přehled co jsem během dne dělal.

Convenient & Easy
I am in a situation where due to disability insurance I *can* work up to -so-many-hours-per-month- in my own business. I’ve been using this to track time worked, to make sure I don’t accidentally go over (I transfer the data daily to an excel spreadsheet by hand). I set up a goal number of minimum-hours-per-month (about half the maximum) and this helps me track and balance my time.

Developer admirably responsive to usability suggestions
I have a complex multi-monitor setup and Niels at Daily went above and beyond to understand my concern. He then described a possible remedy now planned for an upcoming version, and it sounds great.
What every self-employed person, developer, and creative should use to understand their time
I was looking for something that would gently nudge me every 15 to 20 minutes and ask what I was working on. Not to create perfect billable reports, but to help me build an honest log of how my day actually gets spent.
I still use old-school kitchen timers for client billing. But too often I would reach the end of the day and think, "I didn’t bill anyone today," which is a pretty discouraging feeling. With this app, I can look back and see that even if I did not bill a client, I still spent real time working on things that mattered to my business or my personal life.
That visibility is huge for me. As someone who tends to be hard on myself, seeing categories of where my time actually went helps quiet the constant self-blame. A lot of the work I do is on new ventures or maintaining existing ones, and none of that shows up as billable time. Now I can see how much I am investing in each project and decide whether the financial return is worth the time.
This app has genuinely improved how I think about my workdays and my businesses, and it has had a positive impact on my mental health because of it.
THANK YOU for building this app!

So great to read Daily is helpful, not just from a billing perspective, but also from a mental health perspective. Thanks for your review!
Absolutely love this!
I love this time tracking methodology!! And the app beautifully fits into it. Definitely beats all the second-counting apps/methods.
Seamless Premium Experience
This is a time tracking app that does LESS and I LOVE it. I already tested all the new ai-bloated overpriced apps that promise you they track everything but in the end you spend half of the day correcting the data that has been wrongfully tracked. Once you get how this app works, this is the best time-tracking experience I’ve ever had. I set myself the goal of tracking my time for 1 week in the new year (always a painful Google Sheets experience) but this made it SO EASY that I will most likely continue tracking my time over the whole year.

For What it Is - It’s Perfect
Easy tool that keeps time tracking simple and accurate
Easily Tracks Time / Great support!
When I lost a long-time time tracker due to OS upgrades, I needed a simple, easy-to-use, inexpensive time tracker to replace it. I use it as an entrepreneur to track client time. From the start, I’ve been able to communicate with the app designer whenever I had a question. I always get a prompt and helpful reply. The designer has always been open to suggestions and enhancements offered by its users. Over the years using it, it has only improved.

Painless Time Tracking
I have been using this app for years and it makes tracking where my time is spent really easy and allows for sensible configurations to fit all kinds of working styles.
Best simple time tracker for macOS
Easy input, edit categories, and see summaries by date. I’ve used a lot of time tracking apps and also develop software full-time at work. This is the best-in-class time tracker for macOS for usability and value: high ROI, low effort.
Simple Tracker but needs some add’l features
If you just need a simple tracker that pops up and reminds you to track, this is great, but the ability to see reports is a bit challenging and they could improve that. Specifically if you want to see hours spent on specific days for a customer, etc.
