Designed specifically for Developers
Billing clients for actual development time vs. estimated hours
Track actual time per project and generate invoices from real tracked hours.
Switching between projects means losing track of billable time
One-tap project switching. Timer runs in background while you code.
Clients don't understand why code takes time
Detailed descriptions explain complexity. Timesheets show the work involved.
Different work types (features, bugs, meetings) need different billing visibility
Tag time entries by work type. Filter what appears on client invoices.
Creating invoices manually takes time away from coding
Generate PDF invoices from tracked time entries with one click.
“Developers spend 42% of their work week dealing with technical debt and bad code, costing an estimated $300 billion in lost productivity annually”
What Timesheet Handles
Time tracking, reports, invoices, exports, automation, HR rules, and AI logging in one system.
Simplified Time Tracking
Start a timer on the ticket you picked up and stop it when the pull request goes in. An afternoon of context switches still leaves a record.
- One-tap time tracking
- WLAN & Geofencing automation
- Scheduled break reminders
- NFC tag support
Project & Task Management
A project per client or product, tasks that mirror your tickets, and the hourly rate for that contract sitting on the project itself.
- Unlimited projects
- Task categorization
- Team collaboration
- Calendar integration
Accurate Feedback & Analytics
Hours by client, project and task, including how much of the sprint went on bugs and interruptions nobody scoped.
- Daily, weekly, monthly reports
- Income tracking
- Trend identification
- Export to Excel & CSV
Professional Invoice Generation
Invoice the sprint straight from tracked time, with per-ticket lines that show where twelve hours went before the client asks.

Automatic Time Tracking
A Wi-Fi rule starts tracking when your machine joins the office network, and the timer keeps running in the background while you are heads-down.
- Location-based tracking
- WLAN detection
- Background timer operation
- Persistent quick actions
HR-Ready Time Tracking
Contracted hours, overtime and leave for the team, worth watching in a release week when everyone quietly runs past their limit.
- Contracts & employment models
- Live working-time limits
- Leave & overtime balances
- Absence requests & calendar

"Used this app for over two years now. It's excellent. Easy to use. The layout is clean and user friendly. The developer keeps updating and improving it regularly. I like it so much that I donated 5Euro to buy him a beer in the "donate" option. Try it, you'll love it"
