User reviews

Users appreciate Harvest Time Tracker for its integration with project tools like Asana and GitHub, enabling convenient browser-based time tracking. However, many criticize its poor user experience, such as intrusive pop-ups, limited editing features, and outdated interface. Recent updates have added unwanted notifications and raised privacy concerns by requiring extensive permissions. Several users report bugs including malfunctioning buttons, inability to pause or edit timers directly in the extension, and unexpected behavior in task management. Overall, while the extension meets basic needs, its UX issues and bugs significantly diminish user satisfaction.

Pros

Integrates with Asana and GitHub, providing time tracking within task management tools.
Allows tracking time directly from the browser without opening the Harvest website.
Essential for companies needing to track time on multiple projects, especially with Asana integration.
The extension works correctly on supported browsers and fulfills the basic purpose of time tracking.
Users generally like the Harvest software itself for invoicing and time management.

Cons

The extension's user interface is outdated and has poor UX, such as limited task visibility and basic functionality.
The 'Time visibility' pop-up in Asana is intrusive, persistent, and cannot be disabled, causing frustration.
Recent updates introduced unwanted and constant notifications and require intrusive permissions like browser history access.
Cannot pause timers, and notes cannot be edited directly in the extension during timing, requiring users to go to the main website to update entries.
Issues with stability and functionality include the time clock button not showing or working, inability to sign in, and duplication of tasks when restarting timers.

Recent reviews

My company just switched to Harvest, and the Time Tracker extension is very disappointing. Once I start the timer, I'm not able to add additional detail to the notes which means I'm forced to go to the website to update the entry if anything changes or I start another task. There's also not an option to pause the timer which is moronic. D- work on this one. Is any of this on the roadmap?

Good promise, wrote to the suppor twice seems no answers coming from them... Quite a pity I regarded this company differently when they started years ago now I just can hope they either update their guidelines on their site or make it happen to track with notion from this extension

The Track time button integration for gitub seems to not work anymore ... Nothing happens when clicking
