## What is Simple Project Timer?

Simple Project Timer is used to track time you spend working on jobs, projects, and hobbies. The app uses a "card" design:  each project is represented by a color coded card, and each card is the center of activity for its project.

The project cards contains an on/off timer that can be used to track time like a punch clock. Stopping the timer causes the elapsed time to add to the day's total. Immediately below the timer is a row of adjustment buttons to allow quick time modifications.

Of course, work times can be entered or edited manually either from the project card or the project's month view. In addition to time durations, both of these entry points provide a text field to capture any notes for the day.

Logged time and notes can be exported in Comma-separated Values (CSV) format for use in spreadsheet (or even simple text editing) applications. There is documentation provided to help guide you through the exporting process.

The app is free to download and use with up to two simultaneous projects. And you are free to delete and recreate those two projects. If you need more than two projects at a time, there is an in-app purchase that removes the two-project limit.

There is one other in-app purchase that adds two *weekly* displays to the app. One of these displays is viewable in the project card. The other view is displayed when the device is turned on its side (or via a button tap on larger displays). This view provides a week display that includes all projects.

The app has quite a bit more detail than is provided here in its build-in help documentation. Please check there for more information!

### 3/5 — Unable to edit time

*2024-06-02*

Unless I’m missing something, you aren’t able to subtract or add time to days that have already passed, and came only be done if you have worked on the project on that specific day. I love this app for tracking my progress, but I accidentally left a timer on for 86 hours which I cannot edit or delete at all. I love the simple and minimal features of this app but it’s frustrating that this one feature doesn’t exist when surely I can’t be the only forgetful person.

**Developer response:** You can adjust a previous (or current or future) day’s time in the month view. Just tap the day in the calendar grid and then tap either the blue hours or minutes in the “Project Time” box (below the calendar) to adjust. Hope this helps and thanks!

### 5/5 — Maker of many things

*2023-09-30*

This is an awesome app. It’s simple to use and not a lot of bells and whistles, which makes it simple easy and straight to the point. I keep track of my knitting projects and anything else that I need to keep track of.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2022-10-22

• A big upgrade to the project month view! Now see indicators on the calendar for time logged for the current project and others. Also see daily and monthly summaries across projects. However, the original behavior is readily available if you prefer it. All of this is fully documented in the in-app documentation.

• On sufficiently large displayed (such as iPads) you can now display the "Week Display" from the in-app purchase (of the same name) without the need to rotate your device into landscape orientation. The same goes for showing projects, thus removing the need for device rotation altogether (on larger screens). This change is optional and the original behavior is still available if you prefer it. This is fully documented in the in-app documentation.
