This is a simple app to track your hours worked. There are several apps that do some version of this, but I couldn't find one that kept it as simple as this one. Simply press the button to start the time. Press it again to stop. The app will add all the time segments together to give you a total and also keep track of them for you in a table that you can view and remove times from.
