I'm moving from another time tracking app (which I liked, but which wasn't as compatible with Big Sur). So far my only complaint is that I'd like time sessions to round to the nearest quarter hour (or at least have the ability to set that as an option). I haven't invoiced anyone yet, which is the main reason I need a time-tracking app, but it APPEARS to be Ok. I'd like to just be able to say "generate an invoice for Client X since the last bill" without manually adding time entries.

After going through the free trial period, it was clear my small business needed Orbit. I was actually excited to pay for the yearly subscription.But I wanted to point out that you can also gain a LOT of insight by tracking personal time as well—such as R&D, Admin, Accounting. Then at the end of the year getting insights into where you spend most of your time is truly valuable.Plus having it on my Apple Watch is absolutely a must.
This is great 😎

I just started to use this. It’s fantastically Good. By the way, they have very good support for this app on their website you can chat live with them if you click on the little chat icon. I have communicated with this company for Support many times and they’ve always been helpful. I am using it on iPhone, iPad, mac & Apple Watch. I like that I can choose an hourly rate for a client and set a timer and then I can create an invoice from that. I signed up for the yearly subscription. By the way if you go to this app in the app store there is a link to their website. There is a little chat button on the button of the webpage TimeinOrbit is their website. I was able to chat with their support live during their business hours. So cool 😎 By the way if you just want to simply make an invoice just create a customer and then go directly to the invoice on the bottom and create one. You don’t have to use the timer as you can manually add the start and stop time to the invoice after, but if you want to use the timer see below. Here is how i use the app. 1. Add a client and fill out all required fields. You need to put contact person too or you won’t be able to save it. Add address if you want that on the invoice. 2. Then go to clients and select client to make a new project. Pick a color and type the project name. Select billable project if you want to add the hourly rate which is what the timer will use when calculating how much to add to invoice. 3. Then go to timer entries and tap the plus button on the top right. Tap on client to select a client and then select the project you created earlier or add a new project. Type in a catagory name and tap save and then you can click start to start timer. 4. Stop timer when done ✅ and then tap on it to edit time entry. You can add notes for the job and list everything that was done there. 5. Then to create an invoice just tap on invoice on the bottom of the screen. Tap the plus button on the top right. Select the name of the client. Tap on the text that says select time entries to add Tap on add time entry notes to add the notes you wrote before to the invoice. Then tap on add to invoice on the top right of the screen. That will add the timed project to the invoice. Tap on add line items to add other items to the invoice. You can add notes there too. Then tap save. 6. To generate an invoice tap on the circle with 3 dots top right of screen. Select record payment to mark as paid and the do that again to generate a PDF invoice to email to your client. Hope this helps 😎✌🏻

I’ve been using it for two years and haven’t had any issues at all. It’s very easy to use, and I love that I can simply click the upper right corner of my Mac to start the timer instantly.My only wish is that they add more reporting options to better analyze yearly time and billing activity. Thank you Orbit!
