Website Time Tracker
v0.2.6 Updated May 22, 2025 39.26KiB
Description
Track how you spend your time online after you install this software today.
All data is saved locally and on your computer.
Installing a browser extension that silently logs how long you stay on each site might sound like digital self-surveillance. Yet users quickly discover it is one of the easiest ways to recover lost time and sharpen focus. Here are the main advantages.
Clear, unbiased awareness Humans underestimate online drift. A passive tracker replaces guesses with hard numbers captured automatically through tab-activation and idle events. When a popup shows you spent 38 minutes on documentation but 79 minutes on short-form video, the evidence is indisputable.
Gentle feedback that nudges self-control Behaviour scientists call this “closed-loop feedback.” Seeing a live counter while a tab is active silently asks, “Is this worth another five minutes?” The prompt is softer than a blocker but still effective; studies find light feedback boosts task selection toward higher-value work without the rebellion triggered by hard bans.
Actionable weekly patterns Daily reports expose micro-habits, but exporting a week or month reveals strategic insights: perhaps social feeds spike after lunch, or research time collapses on Fridays. With that knowledge you can set concrete caps, schedule deep-work blocks, or move meetings away from peak focus windows.
Privacy-first analytics Modern Manifest V3 extensions store data locally. No browsing history leaves your machine, so there are no GDPR headaches or creepy server uploads—just transparent, client-side numbers.
Zero cognitive overhead Manual timers break flow because you must remember to start, pause, and switch projects. A browser tracker piggybacks on events Chrome already fires, so you capture every second with zero clicks and no context switching.
