## Review summary

Orbit is praised for its easy-to-use, cross-device time tracking and the ability to generate invoices from tracked time with per-client rates. It works well on Mac and Apple devices and suits freelancers. The main drawbacks are limited invoicing features for larger workloads, questions about value for money, and restricted free/demo access. Overall, it’s a reliable, simple time-tracking/invoicing tool with feature gaps to watch.

### Pros

- Easy to use with an intuitive interface
- Works smoothly across Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch
- Time tracking plus straightforward invoicing workflow (set hourly rates per client and generate invoices)
- Freelancer-friendly and simple workflow that many users rely on
- Strong cross-device consistency and solid design for freelancers

### Cons

- Invoicing features feel limited for higher-volume users (no batch invoices, no recurring invoices or payments integration)
- Pricing/value concerns: users feel the price should reflect more features
- Free trial/demo limitations (some features restricted or read-only)
