timestic

If I could only just precisely edit the time without the slider mechanic which is a bit buggy. Sometimes I forget to start and stop and trying to edit the mistake with the sliding is frustrating. Other than that I find it useful for tracking time data thank you!

I found this app on accident when I was reading forums about self-care and daily habits and someone made this for time-tracking.. I love this app so far!!!! It’s very simple, there aren’t a lot of bells and whistles and random features or even much for editing, and yet it does exactly what I need and is very tidy and beautiful in doing so. It is fantastically fast to use and very visual, and extremely user-friendly and organic- very easy to figure out and intuitive. I have ADHD so I do best with visual systems and things being hands-on, and I deal with a lot of the usual problems of the average person but amplified.. It feels much harder for me to conceptualizing time and it’s much easier for me to get sucked into a task without intending to- and I tend to operate by the flow of momentum so sometimes spend longer on something than I plan. Noticing the nuances of this over a longer period can be confusing and stressful, and noticing what areas need work is difficult because it constantly changes every day- and attempting to track something so chaotic takes more energy than it’s worth and most apps just leave me frustrated. A lot of productivity apps are very cluttered and I don’t like using them because sometimes it feels like yet another thing I have to remember to do, and the tedium of entering in tasks and labeling them takes a long time and discourages me from being consistent. I don’t usually write reviews but I was so impressed and I’m happy to support such a well-designed app done independently because I was super thrilled by how helpful it somehow is. This app is amazing because all I have to do is type in a single word if I want and it automatically assigns a color and starts tracking. And to change it all I have to do is type in the next task and it assigns a new color and the timer begins again. I allowed for notifications and so far it appears that the notifications are simple and actually helpful- at the first 15 minute mark I noticed a little blurb saying 15 minutes had passed/asking me if I was doing the same activity. I sometimes will doze off about turning off a timer or updating when I’m done so this was actually a useful function for me. There didn’t appear to be an edit function aside from delete, but I was delighted to discover that I could tap a previous entry I had labeled as something else, label it the same name as a different activity I had already logged (ie, ‘work’) and it would automatically assign it the same color as

What’s the point of this?
