## What is TDF Tracker?

TDF Tracker is an easy to use, powerful tool for those who need to keep track of time/expenses/mileage.  Potential users include consultants, lawyers, accountants, contractors and freelance designers - but can include anyone needing a flexible tool for tracking such items.

### 5/5 — Definite recommend

*2026-07-09*

Using this app for 10 years. Still love it. Makes getting my info to my accountant at tax time so easy!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-11-19*

Best app for keeping track of time, mileage  and expenses

### 5/5 — Simple and Perfect

*2023-06-10*

I have used this app for over 13 years (I think).  It has been perfect for tracking all my time for various projects for clients.  I thought I deleted it recently but thankfully I did not.  I say why fix something that is not broken!  Thank you for this straight forward application.

### 3/5 — Okay simple does not total hours and multiply by hourly rate in reports

*2023-04-09*

See above comment

### 5/5 — Attorney

*2022-07-20*

I’m enjoying this app so far. Very helpful maintaining exact times for clients that question time

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2021-09-18, version 1.8.8*

This app has an efficient and well designed user Interface. It’s customizable to allow for client lists and common tasks. Data entry is fast. Also has a good automatic backup to Dropbox, and exports to spreadsheets. I’ve been using it for years, for mileage, expenses, and time, and it has worked flawlessly. No strings attached, unlike most of the other apps in this category.

### 1/5 — Getting sick of problems.

*2018-06-01*

I’ve been using this app for a number of years, and it’s been alright. The last few months, when I enter information into these windows, be it notes, set the time, or name a task. As soon as I right aero out to the day showing jobs, then click back to that job I manipulated. It doesn’t save the information. In most cases if I have a lot of notes to enter. If I don’t block that information and copy it before exiting out to go to another job. I have to rewrite all I just entered. I’ve recommended this app to a lot of people. If that frustrating addition to this app isn’t solved, I’ll be forced to delete it forever.

### 5/5 — Elegant Simplicity

*2017-08-20, version 1.8.6*

I have had this app for 3 years. I am an independent self employed contractor.  I remodel kitchens and baths, but this app would cover me if I was a lawyer, a seamstress or if I had a Kool- aid stand on the corner.  It is easy to use and RELIABLE.  Recently I was going to switch over to the android world, the perfect time to do it with a broken iPhone. I ordered a replacement and set out to find replacement apps while I waited for the new phone to arrive.  I was astonished to find that the android world has nothing to offer that combines  1. Tracking Time  2. Tracking expenses.  3. Nicely formatted reports.  4. Support for Dropbox "backup on close".  5.  A sensible one time fee for purchase without restrictions. 
The reliability is important because there is nothing quite as expensive as a program like this that forgets, hours, days, or weeks of your time.  
When I use this, my routine is to look at my watch and survey the job site, customers mood, chit chat, review.  I finally strap on the work belt  and at some point I remember to "clock -in".  I open the program and verify the day at the top (there is a "today" button that will jump you from your last use).  I select add entry select time and then if I want I can modify the start time to recapture some portion of my actual arrival time.  Hit the start button, and then you can confidently close the app knowing that you are on the clock. A little red ball indicator appears on the app icon on the opening screen indicating that your clock is running. Incidentally, park this app on the opening screen and every time you turn on the phone you will see it.  As I go through the day I add expenses. This involves manual entry. There isn't a camera  app for taking Picts of the receipt.  I have mixed feelings about whether that would be an enhancement or encumbrance. 
Of course at the end of the day I can punch out on the clock . It is adjustable to account for lots of things that require adjustment after the fact.   The app gets closed and the days data is automagically sent to the clouds, Dropbox in my case.
Reports are the combination of time and expense and can be emailed in PDF format.  I mail it to my self, and copy and paste it into an invoice for the customer as a detailed summary.  Customers seem to like the level of detail and usually that translates into quick payment.  That's the end goal of all of this - payment for your time and effort.  This program keeps stuff from falling through the cracks. 

Amazon graciously agreed to take back the unopened Android and I ended up getting the old  iPhone repaired .  A little bit of serenity has returned to my life,  all because of this elegantly simple app.

### 5/5 — A life savor

*2017-08-06, version 1.8.6*

I like this application very much as it saves me a lot of time and trouble of trying to remember and record all expenses. I recommended it to several people and everyone is using it and is very happy.

### 1/5 — Trying to make this work

*2017-07-03, version 1.8.6*

I have worked with this app and asked for support, but in my opinion, I have not received any support nor can I figure out how to use it based on what it claimed to be "simple". I thought I could have an app that I could simply put a client's name in and another client's name and at the end of the month give each client a printout of the work I have done, not so, it may be there, but their are no instructions or help from the developer, I will pass on this app.
