## Review summary

Most mentioned positives include ease of use, accurate time math, ability to export logs, and clear monthly/yearly totals. The top complaints focus on ads and a subscription model that limits features, plus repeat login/subscription issues after device or plan changes. Other frequent concerns are usability regressions in newer versions (manual clocking, UI quirks, missing pay-period options) and a call for a non-subscription option with better customer support.

### Pros

- Easy to use and adjustable; straightforward clocking and logs can be exported or shared.
- Accurate time calculations; does the math correctly.
- Helpful long-term tool; many users recommend it.
- Provides views and totals/breakdowns by month or year to see what employers owe.

### Cons

- Intrusive ads and subscription-based pricing that limits number of jobs/entries.
- Login/subscription issues on devices or after plan changes; difficulty logging in; support not helpful.
- New versions harder to use with manual entry requirements; automation not working; UI bugs like lock screen time and dark mode.
- Missing pay-period configuration and desire for a non-subscription option.
- Perceived poor or slow customer support.
