Hour Ledger is the time tracker for freelancers, consultants, agencies and everyone who bills by the hour. Start the timer when you begin, stop it when you're done — and at the end of the month you know exactly what you worked on, for whom, and what it's worth. No account, no subscription, no ads. TRACK TIME THE WAY YOU WORK • One tap starts the timer on the project you're working on • Forgot to start it? Add entries manually at any time • Split an entry in two when one session covered two things • Move an entry to another project if you picked the wrong one • Mark work as billable or non-billable • Add a short description so you remember what you actually did CUSTOMERS & PROJECTS • Store customers with address, email, phone and website • Set a default hourly rate per customer and override it per project • Give a project a budget and get warned before you run over it • Internal projects without a customer, for your own work • Colors and SF Symbols make every customer and project instantly recognizable • Archive finished projects without losing their history TASK TYPES Categorize your entries — design, development, meetings, research, admin, or whatever fits your business.
