Automatically creating time entries based on active and idle time

Feedback
1

Hello,
I am generally happy with clockify, there is one feature I am really missing and that is an automatic timer start once I am active on the computer, which is then stopped when I am idle. The current fun ctionality where you can decide at the end of a timer entry what to do with the idle time is not useful for me.
As I am working in a home office I am not locking my PC every time, so the time is not stopped and I have to find out with other tools how long I was working. The time tracking tool I previously used did this part perfectly, but had other short comings.

This feature would really help me a lot.
Regards,
Tobias

Hi @Tobias

You can include Clockify in the apps that are started when you boot your device and turn on the setting in Clockify to start the timer once the app starts.

Thank you for your feedback on the Idle time feature. I’ve logged a feedback form on your behalf to our product team for consideration.

What I could suggest is turning on the option that the timer stops once your device locks, or to save the idle time and input the amount idle in the description or a custom field.

Thank you once again for your feedback!
