No account, no subscription, no in-app purchases. Start the timer from the menu bar, then copy a timesheet when the month ends. Your hours never leave your Mac.
Chas is a time tracker that lives in your Mac's menu bar. One click starts the clock; at the end of the month you copy a timesheet and paste it into your invoice or a spreadsheet.

Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
NEW
- Undo. Deleting an entry, project, task, activity, tag or report template now leaves a notice with an Undo button for five seconds. Command-Z works too, and so does Redo. A restored project gets its entries and tasks back. The entry editor no longer asks before deleting.
- Confirmations. A short notice shows up after you copy or export a report, save a backup or a template, or delete all data. VoiceOver reads it out.
- Short names for activities. Give an activity one or two characters in the Data window. Narrow rows show them instead of the first letter, so Review and Research no longer both turn into R. Backups keep them.
IMPROVED
- Narrow window. The line under an entry no longer turns into a row of "...". The activity shrinks to a letter in a small square, the task is cut only at the end, and a long project name is shortened to its first six letters. Hover for the full name.
- The template editor asks before dropping unsaved changes when you pick another template or create a new one.
FIXED
- The messages after Copy and Export in Reports were in English in every language.
- A backup that failed to save said nothing. Now an alert explains what went wrong.
- When Delete All Data failed, the error appeared under the title "Restore from backup".
- Reset to default in the template editor replaced your template straight away, so Cancel could not bring it back. It now only fills in the editor.
