Website Time Tracker

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.
