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 โ€ข Focus blocks: switch the timer from Stopwatch to Focus blocks for Pomodoro-style work. Pick 25ยท5, 50ยท10 or 90ยท15 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. โ€ข Timesheet export: your hours as a CSV file, one row per session, day or label, ready for a spreadsheet, a client or your manager. โ€ข 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. โ€ข 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%. โ€ข 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 โ€” labels, notes, reports โ€” 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 โ€” 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.

Awayling is a focus timer with a pet that grows on the time you spend away from your phone. HOW A SESSION WORKS Pick 15, 25, 45 or 60 minutes, start the session and lock your phone. Come back when the timer ends and the session counts. Your first three finished sessions each day help your pets grow and lift their mood. If you leave the app without locking the phone, the session ends. Awayling knows the phone locked only if it has a passcode. YOUR PETS Your pet hatches from an egg, then grows to young and then grown. Each pet comes in four colors: pick one when it hatches or change it any time. THE COMMONS A new egg comes at 10, 30, 60 and 100 good days, then every 50, and you pick who hatches. Every pet you raise lives in the Commons and keeps growing, and up to five stand on the Home tab. The Commons gains a pond, a tree, a bench and a lantern as good days add up, and your pets write you short letters at set counts. Grass bends in the wind, and awake pets breathe, blink and wander once they are young. About a minute after you open the Commons, touch it or scroll it, the scene settles into a still picture. With Reduce Motion on, it stays still. GOOD DAYS A day with a finished session is a good day. Good days add up and never reset. New habitats open at 3 and 7 good days. The Week tab shows each day, and you can share a weekly card with the pet in front, your finished sessions and an invite link. Awayling times focus sessions while your phone is locked. Your pets and your history are stored on your phone. A daily 8pm reminder is available and stays off until you turn it on. FREE AND KEEPER Free: the Ember species, the Commons, every egg and letter, all four colors, three habitats, 14 days of history, focus sessions, growth and sharing. Awayling Keeper is a one-time purchase. It adds Dewy and the Keeper species added later, plus two more habitats and your full history. Keeper species hatch from your next egg, like every pet.
