My Time-Tracker records your working time where it happens: on a client's project. TRACKING • Start and stop with one tap – on iPhones with an Action button even while the device is locked • Switch to another project mid-run: the app stops and starts again without a gap • If a timer runs past midnight, stopping it creates two entries – so daily totals stay correct • Correct any entry afterwards, add a note, or move it to a different project • Tags on entries – across clients and projects, “Meeting” or “Travel” for instance; a project can add them to new entries automatically ALWAYS WITHIN REACH • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, counting along • Widgets for the Home and Lock Screen, plus a control for Control Center; you choose which projects the widget offers to start • Apple Watch: start, stop, switch project – and a complication for your watch face • On the Mac the app lives in the menu bar: read the state and switch projects without opening a window REPORTS • Time by client and project – for a week, a month, a year or all of it • Totals by tag, with a filter to match • Stacked chart with a fixed color per project • Optional daily goal with progress, balance and a forecast for when you are done • CSV export for Numbers and Excel • Reports: a timesheet as a PDF per company and period (week, month or a range you choose) – with the company name as the title, daily totals and a breakdown by project. Stored exactly as created YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • No account, no server, no analytics, tracking or advertising services • Entries live on your device and in your private iCloud database, syncing automatically between iPhone, iPad, Mac and Watch The interface is available in German, English, French and Italian. FREE AND UNLIMITED For free you track time for one client with three projects. The one-time purchase “Time-Tracker Unlimited” removes both limits – no subscription. Everything else is included without it: reports, CSV export, widgets, Apple Watch, the Action button and iCloud sync.
