TimeTrack vs Horae

Where did today actually go? TimeTrack answers that in three taps. Name what you're doing, start the stopwatch, stop when you're done. Work hours, study time and deep work all land in one simple time log. No account. No cloud. No setup screen between you and the timer. NEW IN 1.6 • Focus blocks: switch the timer from Stopwatch to Focus blocks for Pomodoro-style work. Pick 25·5, 50·10 or 90·15 minutes. A set is four blocks with a break between them, every block is saved as a normal session on its label, and an alert tells you when a block or a break ends. • Timesheet export: your hours as a CSV file, one row per session, day or label, ready for a spreadsheet, a client or your manager. • Weekly recap on Insights: last week's total, the change from the week before, your most-tracked label, your best day and your longest session. • Daily goal: set a goal from 30 minutes to 8 hours by tapping the line under the timer ring, or in Settings. The ring fills with everything you tracked today, and the percentage keeps counting past 100%. • Theme colors: preview any of the 8 colors before you pick one. SIMPLE ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY USE Most time trackers ask you to build a project hierarchy before you can log a single minute. This one opens on a big start button. Everything else — labels, notes, reports — you can add later, or never. THE TIMER KEEPS RUNNING Switch apps, lock the phone, take a call. The timer carries on and picks up exactly where it should. Forgot to start it? Add the session by hand afterwards. Left it running overnight? Auto-stop, set to the duration you choose, catches that before it ruins your week's data. A focus block ends on time and is saved even if TimeTrack was in the background. LABELS THAT MAKE SENSE OF IT Color-coded labels with icons for the things you actually do — Work, Study, Client A, Deep Work, Gym. Sub-labels when a project needs breaking down. Favorites for the ones you track every day. A note on any session. REPORTS THAT TELL YOU SOMETHING Today, week, month and year views. Stacked daily bar charts, colored by label. A 13-week heatmap of when you focus, so a good month and a bad month look different at a glance. Streaks, average session, longest session and your most productive day. Search your history by session, note or label, filter it by label or date, and edit or delete any entry. YOUR TIME LOG STAYS ON YOUR PHONE No account, no sign-up, no cloud sync. Your sessions, labels and notes are stored on your device, and the timer and reports work on a plane, in a basement, and on a phone with no data left. TimeTrack shows ads, which need a connection; Premium removes them. Export everything to a JSON file and import it again, merged with what you have or replacing it. Schedule automatic backups to your phone's storage, daily or weekly. WHO IT'S FOR Freelancers tracking hours per client. Students who want to know how much they really studied. Remote workers protecting deep work. Shift workers keeping a simple log of their hours. Anyone who suspects their time goes somewhere other than where they think. FREE, WITH AN HONEST UPGRADE TimeTrack is free to use, with ads. Five labels are included; a short optional video adds one more, or gives you two hours without ads. This week's timesheet is always included; an older period takes one short video per export. Keep one theme color by watching one video. Premium is a single one-time payment, never a subscription: no ads, unlimited labels, all 8 theme colors and every timesheet period. Available in 18 languages.

Horae is a time-tracking app for people who don't stick to schedules. Most productivity apps assume you can plan your day in advance and follow that plan. If that's never quite worked for you, you're not broken — you just need a different approach. Horae works the other way around: track what you actually do, then see where your time really goes. NO SCHEDULES, NO PLANS, NO GUILT Start a timer when you start something. Stop it when you're done. Switch between activities as your day shifts. That's the whole loop. The app stays out of your way and shows you the patterns that emerge. SET GOALS THAT FIT YOUR LIFE Decide how much time you want to spend on Work, Sleep, Health, or anything else — daily, weekly, or monthly. Horae tells you how you're tracking against those goals without nagging you back into a rigid plan. EVERYTHING ON YOUR DEVICE - 100% offline. Your data lives in private storage on your iPhone. - No accounts. No sign-up. No cloud uploads. - No ads. No tracking. No analytics. - Crash reports go through Sentry with personal text stripped out. - Export everything as JSON or CSV anytime, or wipe it all in one tap. WHAT'S INSIDE - A clean timer that recalculates from the moment you started — never drifts. - A day timeline showing how your hours actually flowed. - Insights that compare your real time against your goals, daily and weekly. - Activity-level drill-downs to spot where the day disappeared. - Smart reminders for forgotten timers and long-running sessions (you control which fire and when). - Quiet hours so notifications respect your evenings. - Preset categories to start from, fully customizable to fit your life. DESIGNED FOR REAL DAYS Horae handles the messy stuff: timers spanning midnight, time zones when you travel, retroactive entries when you forgot to start, gap-filling when there's a hole in your day, and entries that bleed past their planned end. PRIVACY-FIRST, ALWAYS Your tracked time is nobody's business but yours. Future updates may add optional cloud sync for backup and multi-device — when they do, it'll be opt-in and you'll always be able to export your data and walk away. If schedules don't work for you, give Horae a try. Track honestly. See clearly. Adjust as you go.
