I'm looking for a new timesheet/work log app. The one I currently use is almost perfect but missing a few key features for me.
Things it does that I want out of a different one:
Has a widget for easily starting and stopping a task.
Allows me to see estimates of net income and hours used over set time periods.
Things I'd love for a different one to do:
Automatically handle my non-standard but regular schedule. I'm on a twice-monthly hours split for pay, so my schedule tracks hours form the 1st - 15th and then the 16th - end of month. Currently I have to manually set these time periods every time, I'd love for the app to just do that automatically.
Automatic overtime tracking.
More control over the rates. It'd be great to see income with an estimate of actual net income after taxes are taken out. I'd like the option of inputting those taxes.
Link for the lazy, but only available on iOS. It's simple spreadsheet math, I can't imagine there isn't an Android equivalent.
Edit: Here's an example Android equivalent. I might whip something up myself to submit to F-Droid later.
Uma coisa que pode ajudar é separar uma parte da casa (um quarto, um canto da sala) que você só usa quando for trabalhar, e só usar em horário comercial. Aplicativos de Timesheet podem ajudar a monitorar a quantidade de horas de trabalho do dia.
Mas sugestão nenhuma vai adianter se você não se forçar a parar nas horas combinadas. Eu sei porque tive o mesmo problema por um tempo.

I used to use timetracker for android. Easy, simple, support for projects, clients and exporting to csv (or excel, don't remember. Try it!
I'm sure there are others far more organized than I am but here are a few tips I find important:
- Use a time tracker app. I use the Timesheet app. I don't know how I survived before it, it makes time tracking multiple projects super easy.
- Backup your shit.
- Don't delete your projects for at minimum at least a year. Your former client might need them again because they accidentally deleted it/need something changed or whatever.
- Keep making stuff and putting it out there, word of mouth is great.
That's all I can think of for now.
I recorded the data using Timesheet (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet&hl=en_GB) and processed/plotted it using a program I wrote in Python.
Darker = more days spent studying at that time. I only recorded myself as studying when I was actually studying (as opposed to, for example, merely being in the library or at my desk), meaning that I paused the tracker for eating, toilet breaks, etc.
The data was recorded daily between 21st April and 25th May.
For time tracking & project management I use "Timesheet - Time Tracker". It's an Android app - I don't feel the need to host software for timetracking. I use Google Drive backups to keep it all up to date.
For invoicing I use "Invoice Ninja" great software for what is is. Just export from Timesheet, create an invoice in Invoice Ninja - and bam, success.
I use Evernote for notes :<.
May I suggest an app called Time Tracker instead? It's a pretty slick app. I believe there is a plugin by the same developer that allows it to automatically start based on your location.
Edit: I lied, you used to need a separate plugin, but now the dev has rolled that functionality directly into the app, and it's a much slicker implementation. You can have it automatically activate via get fence, or by connecting to a hotspot.
Also if you want to be super good at giving time estimates, try to time how long you do tasks. Download an application like Timesheets https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet&hl=en
This way you can give quantiative descriptions in your resume in the future. Even during your time at work, you can give more accurate estimates of your work.
I like Timesheet for Android. Very easy to use, simple, and makes noises.
I support government contracts, and need to submit hours each day, and it has to be accurate. So our time reporting app notifies us when we miss a day.
I end up turning Timesheet (Android) on at the start of the day, then when I stop it I put in the time.
It's kind of annoying, but if I didn't do it each day I know I'd be less accurate. Plus being over hours either means the manager has to explicitly approve going over, or I take time off. I'm sure not going to break the law by under reporting to meet company goals.
I've used Timesheet for years to track time on projects/activities. It graphs and also export.

I've been using an app called timesheet to track how long I'm at work since I work salary instead of hourly. My company says we should only be working so many hours but they also insist we do the work of 2 people so I'm collecting data to prove them wrong.
It would be perfect for what you need to do though. It has a feature that lets you track time spent at a set location by GPS or wifi connection. You can set multiple locations and after you set it up it you can pretty much forget it because it does all the tracking for you. It's still in beta but I haven't had any problems with it.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet
TimeSheet might work, unless you want to track multiple things at the same time, but it lets you start and stop/pause a task as many times as you need to
I usually just use a time tracking app on my phone. I really like Timesheet for Android. It's simple to use, but has a whole bunch of additional features you can take advantage of if you want. It also has a bunch of export functionality which is handy. I can even punch into and out of jobs on my watch.
I know what it's like to burn out and have a jackass boss (from back when I was in a different industry), it can be brutal.
I haven't needed to actually track my time per project in a while, but when I did I used this and I remember it working well (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet). Tracks time, projects, tasks, expenses, location tracking, and exports to XLS and CSV. Should o what you want without taking the time to write it.
I was actually asking because I just discovered this app myself. Definitely a great app! The only thing I wish it had is the ability to incorporate financial records based on the time spent doing a task. Along with that, the ability to note which tasks had been paid, and which had not. I do a lot of freelance work, and am always in need of something like that. I still use this, but I have to do all the financial stuff manually. I used to use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet but the developer has long since abandoned it. If you know of anything with these features I'd love to hear about it.
For the most part, I use Timesheet for Android. It lets you specify your work rate for each project, take notes as you go along, export spreadsheets of your time, and it has an add-on infrastructure. My favorite one is the NFC Add-on, which lets you associate cheap and readily available NFC tags with jobs, so all you have to do is wave your phone over a tag to punch in and out.
Timesheet - Time Tracker is the Android app I have installed. It's not directly geared towards books but I'm going to try use it for that anyway.
I've created a project named after the book I'll be starting and you just press start and stop.
Timesheet To keep your working log easily : it's a punch in/out app.
KeepTrucking If you drive a semi and hate paperwork.
Audible To shut down radio and entertain yourself without commercial break/wheater forecast/repetitive 80's hit parade every minute of your fucking life.
Google Maps To find your way around.
Splitwise To keep track of who is paying what no matter the occasion.
Pulse To text with your PC.
Google Drive To have all your documents at hand.
Read it to me To drive safely without being made mad not knowing who just texted you while you where listening to The Martian in your commute.
Great list, upvote for you. I'll add some of my favorite techniques for decluttering my brain (mostly using Android apps, though some are cross-platform):
-In my phone's grocery list I like to put good price-per-ounce ranges next to certain items so I can stock up when prices are good (my store always lists the per ounce price).
-For Android apps, I use a program called Timesheet (free) so I can one-click a widget to start/stop recording my freelance hours. It automatically calculates the total time. I used to record my times in notepad and it was scattered, unprofessional, and extra work. Timesheet has more features than I need, but I haven't researched alternatives yet.
-Speaking of widgets, if you have an Android phone and don't know how to set up widgets on your homescreen, it's definitely worth your time to learn. Your needs will be different than mine, but it can make important information more accessible, make common tasks a one-click process, and let you replace some of the icons on your homescreen with something more useful. Some widgets are downloaded separately from the main app, such as (this) Evernote widget.
-I love, love the paperless options many programs are integrating. Evernote (free) and Google Drive (free) for example have document cameras. They can be opened with one click from the homescreen from either a widget or shortcut. I know Drive automatically OCRs text for easy searching, and I think Evernote does it when you use the special document mode. The extent to which this has helped me declutter cannot be overstated.
-Google Music (free) lets you upload your music library so you can access it from any computer and any device that can access the Music app. You can keep an archival copy of your music somewhere that you have a lot of space, but not need to worry about syncing your library to different devices (you can still choose what music to store locally to cut down on data usage, but it's delivered from the cloud so that you don't have to deal with file explorers, connecting to computers, and transferring files to each device).
-"OK Google" from the Google Now app (free) makes it incredibly easy to set reminders, timers, and alarms through a quick voice command. It's a 5 second process so I use it even for simple things like remembering to switch the wash over or check something that's on the stove. Note that having "Ok Google" detection on at all times can interfere with camera apps and VoIP/Wifi call quality on some phones - in which case you should leave the default setting to only detect "Ok Google" when Google Now is open.
-Tasker (paid) and NFC tag reading programs automate the process of changing settings on your phone when you get to work, when you're in the car, or when you're ready for bed. For example you can have your bluetooth turned on, all your volumes turned to max, brightness turned to max, and Google Now opened (so you can give it a command like "OK Google, navigate to the post office") as soon as you tap an NFC tag in your car. Or you can set Tasker to automatically turn off your wifi when you leave home to conserve battery power. Some things to note with this are that Tasker is probably over a lot of people's heads, and not all NFC tags are compatible with every phone. However, many NFC reading programs have friendly interfaces that can do simple tasks without the need for Tasker.
-Using a Chrome extension, the Pocket app (free) will try to intelligently pull the text from articles you'd like to read and then sync them across your devices in a customizable reading layout. Or you can view the original pages. Either way this is great for cutting down on browser tabs and for making that interesting article available to read when you're waiting in line at the store. The jury is still out on this product, but the free version seems adequate so far. Chrome to Phone and Evernote Web Clipper are other alternatives.
-Losing things can be a problem for those of us with clutter. You can configure the Lookout app (free) to make your phone sound an alarm and give you its last known GPS position if you lose it.
-Back to Evernote, I keep several key notes and notebooks. There's no way in hell I'd be able to keep track of these things without cluttering up my life:
Favorite recipes. Bonus: you can double-check ingredients when you're at the store.
I write down medical things as they come up so I remember to bring them up next time I have an appointment
Medication dosages, medical conditions, allergies, family medical history, doctor's numbers, emergency numbers. Never know when you might need these in a hurry. I also keep a tiny copy of everything except the family history in my wallet (so far have not needed it, but it did get my wallet returned to me very quickly when I lost it a few years ago).
Encoded passwords (in other words I'll have a base password, then make all my passwords are variations on that, so all I need to do is write my username and then "3# 1 cap" to know that it is the base password with 3 of the letters swapped for numbers and the first letter is capitalized - it's fairly secure because I don't write out the base password and it will be meaningless to a snooper)
List of places I like to eat and dishes to make when I'm too hungry to think and remember things. Surprisingly useful.
Travel and camping checklists
Lists of attractions/restaurants/key places/notes for cities I visit, both for entertaining and for giving recommendations to others
Shopping lists for specific stores like Costco
Instruction manuals
Guest lists, because it's nice to be reminded of my partner's friends and people I haven't seen in a long time when planning a get-together.
Records going back a few years of what I've given as gifts to people and what they've had on wish lists. You wouldn't think this is super useful, but it helps reminds you of their taste or of that thing that they really wanted but didn't get last year. If you already keep a list to make sure you've got everyone covered, it doesn't even need to add extra work. I also make private custom lists for people on Amazon to keep track of ideas. Organized gift ideas make birthdays and the holidays much less stressful.
Voice recordings of meetings in case I didn't catch everything in my notes. However, Microsoft OneNote is way better than Evernote for this, as it will show you what part of the meeting correlates to what part in your written notes. Likewise, you can find a spot in your written notes that doesn't make sense and the audio will jump right to that spot so you can listen to it again. The downside of OneNote is I found it took up too much space and I had an issue with it making several copies of notes (which exacerbated the space problems) - but they may have worked out the bugs since. These comments are based on the Windows version, but it is now on Android (here).
Note: several of the apps listed as free have additional storage space or features available with a paid version or in-app purchases. I list what versions provide the functionality I've discussed.

Timesheet - Time Tracker app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet
Really happy with it so far.
Frank Oz will take care of it.
In all seriousness, the situation sucks. BTW, here's the timesheet app I use: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet
Timesheet (for Android) worked well for me when I needed to do this.

"Timesheet - Time Tracker" is the app you're looking for. It's on the Play Store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet
It's not exactly built for "studies" but you can still use for it. You can set a subject as "project" and there you go!
I use Timesheet on my phone. It's a nifty little Android app, and don't be spooked by the notification about in-app purchases. It's just there for the "Buy me a Beer" button on the "Support me" page (which is found in a menu, not a nag screen). The software is 100% donationware, and doesn't even feature ads.
Timesheet lets you punch in and punch out, with various options for rounding time up or down, estimating the amount of pay due per project, "closing" projects, backup to internal storage and Dropbox, an area for both notes on what you did and notes for that particular session, lets you tag what you've done, track where you were working, and export reports to either CSV or Excel files, with a whole multitude of options and filters to control what it exports and how.
And if that wasn't awesome enough, there are add-ons to extend the app even further. My favorite is the NFC Add-On which lets you program an NFC tag to punch you in and out of a particular project. So when we were busy I could just wave my phone over a little tag to punch out of one project and punch into another one, and all I had to do was make sure my screen was on, no further intervention required.
There's also the Calendar Exporter, which punts your records over to Google Calendar, and the Locale/Tasker Add-On, which lets you automate punching in and out, and taking a break, using (of course) Tasker or Locale conditions. However both the Calendar and Tasker/Locale add-ons cost 99¢ each (not counting the cost of Tasker and/or Locale).
I'm going to add some related tools to the list.
The simply named Timesheet for Android and iOS that I've found to be awesome for tracking time spent on projects. It features (all for free) automatic backup to Dropbox and Google Drive, Time rounding, break tracking, call tracking, mileage tracking, expense tracking, exports to CSV, notes, and flags for tracking billable vs. unbillable, payment tracking (billed, paid), rate modifiers (e.g. overtime), tags, and statistics. Tags is underrated, because you can do things like flag if a task was, say, "on set," or "online" or "VFX" or whatever, and then you can look at the stats and see how much of your time was spent doing what. It also includes support for Android Wear and Apple Watch.
There are two plugins, one for exporting your timesheet into a calendar (99¢), and one for NFC-related actions (free). NFC is actually pretty cool, because you can get cheap NFC tags or cards and you can assign projects to them and have the tracker automatically start and stop when you wave your phone across it. Don't even need to open the app.
There's two-tiered subscription option that also gets you access to your timesheets on the web, and adds features like team-based time sheets and PDF Invoicing.
Another is <strong>Wave</strong>, which I pretty much only used for invoicing, but offers a lot more, including accepting credit card payments online.
I use Timesheet app when i need to track time spent on a project. You can export to excel sheet too.
For android, Timesheet!
Used it for years. Keeps my brain in one piece.
I use TimeSheet. It does exactly what I need.
Widget is minimalistic, but is discret and also does what I need.
This one comes with widgets that look like they can be assigned to specific tasks.
I work as a volunteer and track my time with my phone. I use this. Should I be using toggl instead? Why?
