DeskTime is an application that allows you to keep track of the the time you spend at the computer. The different internet and desktop applications you used are tracked and divided into categories, which let you evaluate productivity while at the computer for yourself.

The extension allows DeskTime to view and classify each separate website, rather than simply seeing Chrome as a whole. The extension accompanies the DeskTime app, and does not function on its own.

User reviews
This extension keeps tracking and capturing URL's in incognito mode even when its not requested to do, its basically a privacy invasion tool. Already reported as abusive.
