Job timing software

[Michael5ED9]

I'm a freelance graphic designer seeking a job timing app for use on a Mac that works with OS X Big Sur enabling me to keep track and be able to accurately bill my clients. As there are so many products out there, any recommendations for a simple, easy-to-use app would be most welcome.

@Michael5ED9 I really like Clockify - 100% Free Time Tracking Software (no affiliation) and their free version provides a lot of features including a nice dashboard, detailed reports, and project management. You can enter hourly rates for calculation purposes (although in the free version if you change your rate that has to be adjusted for each project). You can install it locally on Mac or iOS or as a browser extension. You can track time from anywhere as your account is synced online. I've been happy with it so far!

Nice piece of software! I used  at the time an Excel sheet for my personal tracking ... 🙂

If you want a push button solution, you may try something like this: https://timeflip.io/

FYI: I do not use that device, nor do I consider acquiring it, but I had a colleague suggesting something like this for an accurate time tracking. However, I'm not obsessed with on the minute time tracking.

Cheers Adambo. Timeflip is another to review.

Appreciate that Jain, I'll look into it.

@Michael5ED9 You're welcome. Come back and let us know how it goes!

[Michael5ED9]

Yes, of course, I'll try to do that, @J E L.

I have used Klokki in the past. Easy to use and has some neat features,

Sorry, only just seen your reply. Klokki - I'll check that one out.

I've using Clockify now and, other than some initial difficulties getting to grips with its controls, (not particularly intuitive, but that might say more about me than the app) I'm reasonably happy with it. There are some features, possibly available on a chargeable version, such as a folder in which to save and store individual projects. 

Many thanks everyone

I'm using Monitask lately, it's quite interesting, you can give it a try.

[Michael5ED9]

Cheers, I'll have a look at that.
