Trace is a time-tracking app for your Mac that helps you understand how you spend your time. It monitors your app and website activity, presenting a clear and straightforward timeline of your usage.

This looks great, TK! I love the minimal design, perfect for an app in this space. Do you plan on building an iOS companion app so time can be tracked between devices?

@joshnies Thank you! We don't have plans to build an accompanying iOS app currently.

Hey everyone! I'm excited to launch a new version of Trace today, a macOS app designed to help you understand and optimize how you spend your time. After trying countless time-tracking apps, I realized none of them gave me a clear view of where my time was actually going—so I built Trace to fill that gap. Here's what makes Trace very useful: - Built-in activity monitoring: Automatically tracks the apps and websites you visit. - Block apps & websites: Block distracting apps/sites when you need to focus (and yep, it works with Firefox!) - Visual timelines: View your app activity in a clean, color-coded timeline - Session overviews: Get daily and monthly summaries to understand your habits - Privacy-first: All your tracking data is stored locally and never leaves your device Try it out and let me know if you have any questions or feedback!

I often find myself wondering where my time actually goes, and standard time trackers don’t really give a full picture. The color-coded timeline sounds like a great way to visualize this. Does Trace also track idle time or breaks?
