TimeMender is a fast, forgiving personal worklog for people with imperfect timer habits. Real workdays are messy. You forget to start the timer. You forget to stop it. You switch tasks without thinking. Meetings run long. You get interrupted and lose track. TimeMender is designed around that reality — not an ideal workday where everything gets tracked perfectly. Capture time as it happens, fix the messy parts fast, and get a clear picture of where your day went. Maybe you feed a timesheet at the end of the week. Maybe you bill by the hour. Maybe you just want to know where the day went. Whatever your reason, TimeMender keeps a lightweight, honest record without asking you to manage a full productivity system. Built for messy, real-world days One-tap timer. Tap a work item to start; tap another to switch. Only one timer runs at a time. Switched late? No problem. If you realize you changed tasks a few minutes ago but forgot to switch the timer, use Switch Late to move that recent time to the right work item without stopping to reconstruct your day. Quick Add. Add time you forgot to track — no timer required. Easy adjustments. Open Adjust from the overflow menu to move time between work items, fix mistakes, or clean up your day without editing a complicated timeline. Daily target. See Tracked and Remaining/Over at a glance so you know when your workday is "full." Keep your timer in sight. With TimeMender Pro, your active timer stays visible on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island through a Live Activity — a subtle, persistent reminder that you're still tracking, so it's easier to stay on top of your time throughout the day. Works locally. Core tracking runs entirely on your device. No account, no sign-in, and no network connection required. Private by design Your worklog stays under your control. There's no TimeMender account and no backend storing your work history. We don't receive, host, or sell your data.

It does one focused job: help you capture, adjust, and understand your time — even when your workday doesn't go according to plan.
