knoself

Start timing from Action Button, widgets, Lock Screen and Apple Watch, and turn real effort into reviewable time cards.

If you often move between work, study, rest, and everyday life but cannot clearly say where your time went, knoself helps you record real effort and turn it into time cards you can review.

knoself has the following features:

【Quick Start】Start timing from the Action Button, Home Screen widgets, Lock Screen, Apple Watch, Today's Reminders widget, or inside the app. It works well for quick tasks and lightweight recording.

【Time Cards】Each record becomes a time card. Along with the time spent, you can write notes, ideas, mood, state, and takeaways, so your future self can understand what was happening.

【Multi-dimensional Tags】Use # tags to add project, context, state, energy, or mood to each record. When reviewing later, you can understand your time from different angles.

【Calendar and Health】You can write time records to the system calendar and sync mindfulness, sleep, and workout time from Apple Health, bringing manual records and automatic data into one review.

【Review and Reflection】Use time breakdowns and 24-hour distribution charts to see when you are more focused and what takes the most time. For deeper reflection, share time cards with AI tools and continue with methods such as Three Good Things, KPT, or the 4P model.

【Local-first】Records are stored locally by default. iCloud Sync is optional. Sharing and export are initiated by you, and your data belongs to you.

What knoself is good for

• Record real effort: work, study, reading, exercise, quick tasks, and everyday life.
• Add context: write time logs, notes, journals, thoughts, mood, and takeaways in time cards.
• Review your life rhythm: use tags, charts, time distribution, focus state, and rest rhythm to see yourself more clearly.
• Personal reflection: organise time cards for yourself, or share them with AI tools for further analysis.
• Keep recording lightweight: for people who want to understand themselves without using a heavy project management system.

What knoself is not for

knoself focuses on personal time recording. It is not designed to become a team management tool or a complex project system.

【Not for team timesheets】No team member management, timesheet approval, organisation reports, or admin console.

【Not for project billing】Not intended for client billing, contracted hours, invoicing, or enterprise timesheet settlement.

【Not a calendar replacement】It can write records to the system calendar, but it is not for full schedule planning, meeting management, or calendar analytics.

【Not automatic surveillance】It does not automatically monitor how long you spend in every app or website, and it does not analyse all your behaviour in the background.
