## Description

TimeKeeper helps you to track your times at specific locations. Just easily create a location and let TimeKeeper do its work fully automated. GPS is used to check when a location is entered (Check In) and leaved (Check Out). The time between Check In and Check Out results in your attendance time. Over time, other relevant data such as week, month, or total attendance is calculated. 

Features:
• Automatic time tracking for max. 20 locations (one included, more via In-App purchase) 
• Detailed history with every check in and check out
• Daily, weekly and monthly summaries 
• History export as TXT, CSV or PDF to other applications (via In-App purchase)
• Calendar export for check ins
• Define daily break times
• Attendance reminder
• Today widget
• Map view with all defined locations
• Temporary pause tracking
• Full control over your data

Notes:
Mobile data and Wi-Fi should always remain switched on for reliable attendance tracking. No active data connection is required. Continued use of GPS in the background may decrease battery life.

## Review summary

TimeKeeper offers hands-off time tracking by location and shows daily location-based totals, which many users appreciate. However, reviews consistently flag usability issues—too many steps, poor intuitiveness, and limited ability to edit locations or parameters. Report generation and weekly aggregation are reported as weak or inaccurate, with misleading hours and ineffective CSV exports. Location detection and geofence accuracy are inconsistent, leading to misplaced check-ins. Pricing and ads in the Pro version also frustrate users. Overall, the app has promise, but reliability, usability, reporting, and pricing concerns limit its value.

### Pros

- Automatic location-based check-in/out (hands-off time tracking) when it functions.
- Tracks hours spent at specific locations with daily totals.
- Simple initial check-in process when the feature works.

### Cons

- Hard to use: not intuitive and requires too many steps to check in/out.
- Geofence/location accuracy problems can misplace check-ins.
- Cannot edit locations or parameters; limited customization.
- Weak reporting and exports: inaccurate weekly totals and useless CSV exports.
- Pro pricing/ads: ads removal is charged and ads still appear, causing frustration.
