¿Por qué confiar en esta guía?

I have used TrackingTime for eight months across client work and my own projects. Every screen here comes from real hands-on use, not vendor marketing.

But most users only ever press start and stop.

Used well, it helps you track time spent on real work and boost productivity across the whole team.

Esta guía le muestra cómo utilizar todas las funciones principales.

Here is what my own setup looks like after a few weeks:

✓ Control: You should see the main dashboard with an empty timer.

Paso 3: Crea tu primer proyecto

Add one project, add two tasks inside it, and set a rough estimate in hours.

Then switch on reminders and notifications so the app nudges you when the timer is not running.

Gerente de proyecto lets you create projects and break them into smaller tasks. Each task gets its own owner, budget, and estimates.

The dashboard shows every active project with a progress bar.

Step 2: Compare Estimates Against Actuals

Read the estimate column beside actual hours to identify areas that drift.

Así es como se ve:

Step 3: Leave a Comment for the Team

Consejos y atajos profesionales para TrackingTime

After eight months of daily use, these are the tips that saved me the most hours.

Atajos de teclado

The desktop app keeps these shortcuts alive even when the window sits behind your editor.

Características ocultas que la mayoría de la gente pasa por alto

• Pomodoro timer: Switch it on in preferences. The technique runs twenty-five minute sprints with short breaks, which helps focusing and does reduce stress on long days.
• Time blocking view: Drag empty slots onto your calendar to plan tomorrow. Time blocking assigns dedicated time slots to tasks and cuts decision fatigue.
• Customize your reports: Save a filtered report once, then reuse it every week to share reports with clients in two clicks.

Here is the benefits view I check most often:

Export those reports as CSV or PDF, then analyze last month beside this one. The insights point at habits worth changing, and the areas of improvement stop being guesswork.

Task batching pairs well with all three. Group similar tasks to cut context switching and improve efficiency.

Errores comunes que debes evitar al usar TrackingTime

Mistake #1: Tracking Everything as One Giant Task

Mistake #2: Fixing Entries Weeks Later

Mistake #3: Skipping Breaks Entirely

Solución de problemas de TrackingTime

Problem: The Timer Kept Running Overnight

Arreglar: Open the entry, drag its end point to the right hour, and save. Then set idle detection to stop the timer after fifteen minutes.

Problem: Hours Are Missing From a Report

Causa: The entries sit outside the date range, or they were never assigned to a project.

Arreglar: Widen the specific period in the filter, then check the unassigned bucket and move stray entries.

Problem: The Integration Stopped Syncing

Causa: The connected account expired its access token, usually after a password change.

Arreglar: Open Settings, disconnect the integration, and reconnect it. Tasks resync within a minute.

📌 Nota: If none of these fix your issue, contact TrackingTime support.
