About

Day Readout

Features
Read full description

Day Readout is a local time tracker for activities. There is no Stop button — one timer is always running. Tap an activity to switch to it. Time that does not belong to a named activity is counted as Other. The main screen is today. Statistics shows past days, intervals, and lets you move minutes from the end of a finished interval onto another activity. Nest activities with a long-press and drag; a parent total includes the whole subtree. Everything stays on the device. No account, no network, no cloud.
