So much easier for me than paper!
12/29/2023

For a few years I’ve been tracking our hours, and at first I loved the marking our hours on a paper tracker on the wall. But it became hard for me to remember our hours when life got busier over the last couple years (after the pandemic). I love how easy this app makes it for me to track! I can see what days we did what hours, how many hours per month, and many more little details that I couldn’t see with the paper tracker. I don’t forget to track our hours as often because my phone is with us when we are out and about (to take pictures of our adventures!). Also I like the little photos/notes section that is like a little journal of what we did that day. Never had any issues with getting the app to work!

Good but a little buggy

I like the app overall to keep track of our hours outside. My four biggest issues are: 1. The timer itself is buggy, I’ve gone to open the app and stop the timer after an hour or two outside and the timer will show as 00:00 with a start button and I will accidentally reflexively hit it with your realizing it hadn’t yet “updated” to our actual real time count. Sometimes it takes a full minute for the timer to refresh itself after it’s been running in the background a while2. There’s no app widget available! This would be the perfect thing to add to my Lock Screen for instant access, sometimes I totally forget to start the timer on my phone but I believe a widget start/stop would make this whole thing way easier and enjoyable 3. When in the calendar view if I need to edit a single days time I expected to just click on the square for that day and be able to edit but you have to click on the little tiny clock button that comes up. I overall found a lot of navigating the app to be confusing.4. I haven’t yet finished a full month of timing since it’s still January but other users have said that once a month is finished you aren’t shown a “month total” and would have to add up days manually to see how much time you spent outside during one particular month, if this is true this is VERY disappointing! I guess I will find out soon.

Not worth it

I am shocked that there are so many great reviews for this app. I like that you can track time for more than one person.. but in the calendar view and the “hours this week” view you can only see the hours for the “main account. You should be able to switch between which profile you want to view. You can’t even choose who the main account is. Also the last time I added hours it didn’t update in the individual profiles, so now I feel like I need to write down the hours we spend outside on a piece of paper because this isn’t accurate, defeating the purposes of this app. I also would have thought that on the timer tab that there would be timers for each individual profile. And with the announcement by Ginny for 2023 I would think that there would be a way to track miles walked, books read, and other goals. This app isn’t worth spending money on and it doesn’t live up to the needs. Hoping for lots of improvements soon.

Love it + one critique

I love this app and how it encouraged us to be outside more in 2023. Excited to start a new year and “beat” last years hours. One feature I wish the app had was after stopping a running time, to have the ability to “approve” or edit right there and then. So often I forget to stop the counter when we go inside and then I have to go back into the day’s total time and (😱) do math to correct it. When it’s only been like 5 minutes, it’s no big deal… but I have been known to leave the counter running for many hours or even over night haha and then it does become a challenge to remember what was already on the count for that day, and what the correct total time should be.
