## What is Nostora?

You remember the ten o'clock meeting. Lunch. The call that ran long. But the two hours in between?

At the end of the month you estimate. And because you are a decent person, you estimate against yourself.

Nostora brings those hours home. One tap on play and the timer runs — no project to create, no client to pick, no form to fill. Time tracking never fails in week one. It fails in week three, when the tracking itself becomes the work.

TWO DIRECTIONS, ONE PATH

The way back records what happened — to the minute, no guessing.

The way forward is the Day Planner. It drafts your day from what your real weeks have revealed about you. Not a wish-list calendar that collapses at five.

SIX LIVES, ONE APP

Tobias, student. Twenty hours of assistant work, a master's thesis, a hackathon team. On Fridays, a PDF to his boss in under a minute. The follow-up questions have stopped.

The Sommer family. Three profiles on one device, each with its own colour and its own statistics. After two weeks David corrected his “club business” from one hour a day to two and a half. It was a peaceful evening — the numbers had taken over the arguing.

Marie, UX consultant. For years she gave away ten to fifteen percent of her hours. Today her rates live on the categories, the timer starts from her Apple Watch, and Fridays are for invoices.

Markus, engineer. Timer off, and the worklog is on the Jira issue — to the minute, with his note. No server in between. Friday at 4:30 pm has lost its terror.

Carla, therapist. What convinced her was not a feature but a sentence: there is no server anything is sent to.

Jan, project manager. He imports his 400-line project plan and gets a planned-versus-actual comparison that carries the next quote.

WHAT IS INSIDE

- Unlimited timers, categories, activities, notes
- Day Planner with templates for every weekday
- Statistics, weekly review, PDF and CSV reports
- Hourly rates, flat fees, weekly budgets
- Places with automatic detection
- Apple Watch, widgets, Siri, Shortcuts, calendar
- Profiles with their own colour and logo
- Jira integration, import of MS Project plans

YOUR HOURS BELONG TO YOU

No account. No sign-in. No cloud. No ads. No tracking. There is no server anything is sent to — there is simply no server. Where Nostora uses artificial intelligence, in the weekly review and the Day Planner, it runs on your iPhone with Apple's on-device models.

WHAT IT COSTS, HONESTLY

Free: up to six active tasks and two profiles. Nothing else is held back — timers, statistics, the weekly review, PDF and CSV reports, Apple Watch, widgets, calendar and places are all included. The limit counts active tasks only; finished ones free the slot and stay in your reports.

Plus, one-time: unlimited tasks and profiles, backup across all profiles, Day Planner with suggestions and an AI draft.

Pro, subscription: everything in Plus, plus the Jira integration. If you don't use Jira, you don't need Pro.

Project Import, one-time: MS Project and ProjectLibre plans, planned-versus-actual reports. Independent of the rest.

Anyone who bought Premium before version 5.0 keeps Plus and the Jira integration for life.

Nostora — from nóstos, the homecoming, and hora, the hour. The hours are not gone. They are just not home yet.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 5.3 — 2026-08-31

The app is now called Nostora.

Trackers described what the app does. Nostora says what it is for: from nóstos, the homecoming, and hora, the hour. The homecoming of the hour.

On your device only the name changes. Your tasks, time entries, profiles and reports stay exactly where they are. Purchases remain valid. A calendar previously named “Trackers” is renamed on first launch instead of duplicated, so your history stays in one place. Events exported by earlier versions are still recognised.

NEW: THE DAY PLANNER

Until now Nostora recorded where your time went. Now the direction reverses.

- Suggest my day: a draft from your real weeks, not from good intentions
- Plan my day: an AI draft, computed on your iPhone
- Templates per weekday — Monday may look different from Friday
- Timeline with a planned-versus-actual comparison
- Revenue projection in the header
- Write the plan to your calendar
- Live Activity on the Lock Screen

ALSO

- The purchase screen now lists only what Plus actually unlocks. Apple Watch, widgets, calendar sync and the PDF and CSV reports were listed there as Plus features — they are in fact free, and now it says so.
- Smaller fixes in reports, places and calendar sync.

### 5.1.1 — 2026-07-01

Trackers now captures the distance you cover for each appointment.

• Pick between line-of-sight and real route (via Apple Maps).
• Driving or walking — both are handled.
• Set your per-kilometer rate and reimbursement shows up automatically in the Insights tab.
• Everything sits behind a switch in Settings. Off means off.

Track your time honestly. And now: track your distance honestly.

### 5.1 — 2026-06-30

v5.1 — Flat-rate billing.

• Bill time entries as a fixed flat amount instead of hours × rate — per category, per task, or per entry.
• Default hourly rate now inherits Profile → Category → Task → Entry.
• Reports show billable amounts, group by activity, and let you stack filters (Category × Place × Task × Activity).
• One-tap export to CSV or PDF — share sheet opens directly.
• New "Show Billing" toggle hides every billing surface if you don't track money.

Thanks for using Trackers!

### 5.0 — 2026-06-22

Trackers 5.0 — the biggest update since launch.
What's new:
• Trackers Pro — Jira Cloud sync, AI weekly digests, multiple profiles, all future Pro features. 7
days free.
• Live Activities & Dynamic Island — see the running timer without opening the app.
• Project Plan Import — Microsoft Project and ProjectLibre as an add-on.
• Weekly AI briefing (iOS 26) — where your week actually went, generated on device, no cloud.
• Apple Watch app fully redesigned.
For existing Premium customers: we haven't forgotten you. Your Premium features stay free —
and you get Jira sync as a permanent thank-you.
Plus 47 detail improvements, performance tunings, and four new languages (now: German,
English, Spanish, French, Polish, Russian).

### 1.2.1 — 2026-05-29

Activities — Classify every time entry: Meeting, Development, Review, Documentation, or your own. With color and icon, shown as a chip next to each entry. At the end of the month you don't just know how much — you know what you spent your time on.
Billing — Mark entries as billable and set an hourly rate per task. Trackers shows you live what each interval is worth. Clean invoices without late-night number crunching.
Calendar as full backup — When you switch iPhones, pull everything back from Apple Calendar: tasks, time entries, activities, categories, billing status.
Plus stability fixes for Siri Shortcuts and Apple Watch.
