Designed specifically for Designers

Stopping to log time in a separate app disrupts your creative process

Tell ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini 'Log 2 hours on logo design for ClientName' via MCP Server.

Manual time tracking wastes valuable work hours and leads to inaccurate billing

Automatic timers with geofencing and Wi-Fi triggers start tracking when you begin working.

Desktop-first time tracking software is left unused when designers are away from the computer

Native iOS and Android apps with one-tap timer, offline mode and Apple Watch support.

Creative work blurs together, hard to know how long each project phase takes

Tag time entries by phase (concept, wireframes, revisions) and see allocation charts.

Creative work happens anywhere, home, studio, café

Same timer on all devices. Start on laptop, stop on phone. Always synced.

Without project-level tracking, designers never know which jobs are actually profitable

Every tracked second is filed against a project, task and client with its own hourly rate.

Creative work and client revision rounds look the same in timesheets, unbilled feedback cycles stay hidden

Tag entries as creative, revision, or client feedback. Project distribution charts show how much time revisions really take.

What Timesheet Handles

Time tracking, reports, invoices, exports, automation, HR rules, and AI logging in one system.

Simplified Time Tracking

Start the timer on a brief and stop it when feedback lands, so concepting, artwork and the third round of amends stay separate entries.

  • WLAN & Geofencing automation
  • Scheduled break reminders
  • NFC tag support

  • Unlimited projects
  • Task categorization
  • Team collaboration
  • Calendar integration

Professional Invoice Generation

Tracked hours become a PDF invoice carrying your logo, with the revision rounds itemised, so a scope conversation has evidence behind it.

  • Generate invoices from time entries
  • Add expenses and notes
  • Track payment status
  • PDF export

  • PDF reports
  • API access

Automatic Time Tracking

A Wi-Fi rule starts the timer the moment your studio machine joins the network. A long stretch in Figma stops being the work you forget to log.

  • WLAN detection
  • Background timer operation
  • Persistent quick actions

  • Live working-time limits
  • Leave & overtime balances
  • Absence requests & calendar

Loved by Thousands Worldwide

See what our users have to say about Timesheet.

"I've been using the free version for my business for years, and I love it. Before I discovered it, I was a mess. It helps me keep track of tons of projects at once, and I can quickly and easily switch between projects."

Karynne Moses

Designer

"Great app! I've been using it every day for 5 years. It allows me to track my overtime and export it to XLS for my reports."

Thierry Deneubourg

Designer

"I need it for simple hourly billing, but the app could do much more. The Excel export and the ability to track hours across multiple projects are great. I find the app very intuitive!"

Reto Hess

Designer

"It is indeed the best time tracking app I have ever used. Very easy to use and intuitive. The only issue I have found is if you work multiple jobs with different work weeks, it's not able to set up different start for the work week."

Jishnu Sreenivasan

Designer

"Absolutely amazing. Flawless sync between web and my smartphone. And easy to use interface and the exported Excel file is clear to understand. The web app at my. Timesheet. Io has similar UI and UX. 100% satisfied. Great app."

Sunny Rabius Sunny

Designer

"Just what I am looking for. Start the app enter a name for a project and press start. No log in necessary. There is a log in option, but not required to get started. And there are a lot of features that will make tracking my project time simpler. It is an extremely versatile app."
