Mind the Time Firefox

Mind the Time

Keep track of how much time you spend on the web, and where you spend it. A toolbar ticker shows the time spent at the current site or the total time spent on the web today. A summary page sums up data for the past 70 days, 10 weeks, and 6 months.

Features & Capabilities

Mind the Time is a powerful Chrome extension designed to help you monitor how much time you spend on the web and specific websites. Featuring a toolbar ticker that displays the time spent on the current site or the total web time for the day, it presents data clearly in minutes or a H:MM format.

Users can toggle between different timing modes such as automatic pause on inactivity, continuous tracking (ideal for videos), daily total logging without site details, or turning the timer off completely. Periodic reminder messages keep you aware of your browsing duration, customizable to your preference.

A detailed summary page offers insights on time usage for today and extends back 70 days, including weekly and monthly breakdowns. To protect privacy and customize tracking, you can whitelist sites to exclude from logs. All data is stored locally and automatically managed. Mind the Time offers an intuitive and flexible way to understand and control your online time.
