| 2024-09-01 |  | | en | Few feature enhancements: 1. On face of it I don't think it's 'merging' activitiy: (A) My mobile activity and desktop activity as I am sure I am using some apps more on mobile. (B) Also it's clearly not merging Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome activity. This is despite being generally logged in with Google account. When I launch insights from each browser I get different metrics. Like many I tend to alternate between browsers. Some kind of 'synch' functionality would be enormously useful. 2. It would be good to show how much time the Freedom app is enabled - the idea here is you should be targetting to have the app enabled as much as possible so weekly comparisons will tell you if you ended up just switching it off and forgetting to re-enable. 3. The big issue I have with Freedom is that it requires lots of workarounds / fiddling in a corporate environment because desktop app can't be installed for security reasons. Hence there should be a lot more emphasis on the web based extensions working really seamlessly as the majority of corporate users will be using that. I am still using Freedom actively as I really think the tool is much better than not having at all - hope the product keeps getting enhanced. |
| 2024-06-10 |  | | en | Really Great Extension I use it on daily basis. It would be cool if developers can add new features like time limit for websites etc. |
| 2024-01-30 |  | | en | Great extension I use on a daily basis to optimise how I spend my time. Is there a way to export my data so I can analyse it better? |
| 2023-12-20 |  | | en | It would be great if would this time tracker worked also for desktop apps (maybe some feature for Freedom app?) |
| 2023-08-16 |  | | I just made me realize how much time I waist online and on what. Thank you so much for this, I can say for me I aceived a lot. Thank you. | |

| 2023-04-26 |  | | Does it only work with Freedom??! Tried both (Freedom first), but I don't want to hit "start session" every time for it to track. Also I want it to track my time using ALL/ANY programs while on my device, Freedom seems to focus mostly on "blocking" stuff. This browser-site-tracker didn't work at all since I chose to no longer use Freedom since it's cumbersome and not doing what I need. :/ Maybe they'll change/add features... I'll look elsewhere till then. | |
