Something like ActivityWatch (open-source, non-functioning) or Timing (proprietary, functioning, for Mac): Keeps track of your app usage by app and app title and directory, automatically suggests tasks to make based on app usage.
- almarklein 6y agoAutomated solutions like that seem really nice, but it's not possible for a web app to know much about what you're doing outside of the app itself.
- crazypython 6y agoThen don't make it a web app. Make a native app. Or a native app that sends the data to a web app via localhost websocket.
- ErikBjare 6y agoI'm the maintainer of ActivityWatch (happy to see it mentioned!) and automating the process of time tracking was why I started building it (along with frustrations I had with RescueTime). Curious what you mean by 'non-functioning' here :)
