The latest update has made what was already below average UX a horrible UX. Why would you add 2 additional clicks each time I want to use the Timer? Why does it now open collapsed in default state regardless of if a timer has already been started? Issues: 1. Even slower to load after initial click that it was. 2. Logs me out way too frequently, and initial click after being logged out, there is a full 20-30 seconds before the widget opens and is interactive. 3. I have never had logged time with “no project” before this change. Now it is quite frequent because the select box for Project now includes Client name as the first option for each. I never want to log to no project and can’t understand why this is even a “feature”

I just downloaded it, was excited to have a timer in Chrome finally after switching to the new Freshbooks. The timer won't start, it doesn't do anything. It appears I can log time, but can't track it. Will this be fixed soon?

Very buggy, slow and very frustrating UX. I no longer recommend Freshbooks as a time-tracking tool. When it actually works it still stinks: > it is slow to load my project list and task lists. > It doesn't allow you to edit the value of the timer to adjust it to round to nearest minute OR add/remove time before submitting it to the log. Video of it not even working....https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/5209892?key=6053c093537c5637f9cbf25254c5f1f1
