It would be more nice if the pomodoro timer counts a break time.
I have suffered so Manny bug also have so Manny UX issue.
After last update it keeps saying to log in and when I try to do so nothing happens. The only thing that fixes it is going to the web app timer and having it open all the time. The extension became completely useless because of that. If I need to have the web app open what's the point of having an extension
This extension worked seamlessly for me until the recent update. I'd still say it's 90% great, but it has recently become a lot more difficult to adjust your time on a task. Example: You walked away from your computer or another task popped up that needed immediate attention. You want to subtract 15 minutes from the current task. Old timer: subtract 15 minutes from the total time New timer: add 15 minutes to the start time. This is frustrating when I do it backwards and don't notice my total time has gone up instead of down. To be clear, I understand this is the intended functionality and obviously user error. I'm not opposed to change or new features, but I really think the recent update made time tracking more difficult and would love to see the old functionality return to this great extension.
It's pretty bad UX. Firstly every time the extension updates it opens a tab informing me that I've installed it. I know that. I've got it installed for years now. Then my main way of using the extension was to press play on an existing entry and then edit start and end times (as I usually forget to start an entry when I start a new task and also because I round my entries to 15 min). Honestly the best experience was the old macOS app. It wasn't perfect, but worked far better than the new app.
Since the recent update: - modifying the time I'm currently tracking got pretty difficult (e.g. just got a phone call, and would like to modify the spent time - I need to either A) modify the start time or B) stop the timer and modify the end time, and then restart timer - entering description is pretty painful if i have the same description for other project and the auto-suggestion appears - by default the icon looks like i'm tracking time (pink) - if I click on it, it turns grey - opens a tab many times to inform me that there was an update Some of these changes wouldn't be a big issue, but all of them at the same time totally changed my experience. Hope it helps and you could fix somehow, or give us the ability to adjust the settings. Thank you!
This new version breaks my workflow. For example: 1) In Asana press the toggle button to start the timer 2) stop the timer in toggle 3) adjust the time entry - e.g. if I'd actually meant to stop the timer 20mins earlier 4) In Asana start a new timer - Here is the issue -> this stops the old timer and changes the edited time entry to be the start and finish time that was set from asana, My corrections are all overridden with the wrong times. Also I often start the timer in Asana way after I've already been working on a task, so I adjust the start time in Toggle, now when I stop the timer in Asana it overwrites my edited start time!
Ever since version 3.0, The addin has had continuous problems in our business environment. Luckily Firefox still uses 2.0.20 as its current version. Toggl support mentioned they had to update to 3.0 because of a Chrome Store compliance issue. PLEASE FIX!
Disappointing Update to the Toggl Chrome Extension As a long-time user of the Toggl Chrome Extension, I've generally been happy with its performance and features. However, the latest update has introduced a few issues that have made the extension less useful for my daily workflow. Custom Domain Integrations: The update appears to have broken integrations with custom domains, such as self-hosted OpenProject instances. This has severely limited the extension's usability for those of us who rely on these platforms for our project management needs. Time Editing Precision: The ability to edit the current tracked time down to seconds while preserving the original start time (including seconds) has been removed. This was a valuable feature for those of us who need to accurately track time spent on various tasks throughout the day. Deleting Running Tracked Time: In the previous version, it was possible to directly delete the currently running tracked time. The new update has removed this feature, adding extra steps to stop and delete an unwanted time entry. While I appreciate the developers' efforts to improve the Toggl Chrome Extension, this update has, unfortunately, taken away functionality that was crucial to many users. I hope that the team will take this feedback into consideration and restore these features in future releases.
This used to be really great and easy to use. Now when I click the button on various sites I'm using it on, the overlay is huge compared to what it used to be and I can't even tell what I'm supposed to do without scrutinizing over it. You can't even tell there are fields at first glance; it's just a massive white box over the content. PLEASE get your old UI/UX people back or something. The changes over the past year or so (to desktop app, chrome extension, etc.) have been abysmal in terms of look, feel, and usage. The upgrade also lost all of my settings so I had to go re-enable it on all the sites I use it on and re-set custom URLs. Sometimes now I start the timer via an inserted button on a website (i.e. GitLab or Trello) but it won't show up as a running time in the desktop app (sometimes forcing a sync in the desktop app works; other times have to restart it). Have a few websites where the button has stopped showing up sometimes and have to refresh the page to get it there. It's hit or miss now.
Echoing similar statements from other more recent reviews. Since about six months ago the addon and integrations have become very unreliable and seem to loose control over the timer. Whilst a bit of creative juggling, tabbing to other screens and stopping the timer on the site restores this it happens so often that it affects workflow and productivity in a negative way. It used to work perfectly across multiple devices with a better UI design but slowly seems to be getting wreaked. Please start fixing it and stop making it worse it was a 5* product leave it be!
This extension used to be perfect. I used it in conjunction with Clickup for time tracking and it just worked. But after the recent update, it's been absolutely awful. I keep having to refresh the page for the track button to work, it keeps auto-selecting the wrong project, the UI is ugly, it's just an enormous step backwards in almost every way. Really disappointed. I hope they can fix it soon.
It used to be GREAT for the long six years of my experience until the recent update (feb-march of 2023). Integration doesn't work on any site anymore, have to manually add new tracking. Can't edit time by editing the amount of time (simple amount of minutes or hours), have to enter specific date time. The UI in general become worse and unclear to me. MOVE AWAY the "Delete" button or at least add a warning on click. I accidentally removed one of my entries and I can't restore it, nor add it manually, cus I don't remember the title and the amount of time spend.
This extension used to be great but recently it was updated and it's not nearly as easy to use. I'm now finding it harder to get all projects from one client because you can no longer search for a client name and get all projects associated with it. I'm also having to do more math to change the amount of time I've been billing; I used to be able to change the elapsed time, now I have to change the start time. Furthermore, in order to change the start time, I have to do it using two clunky number fields, one before the ":" and one after. It's really difficult to use and I've had to try several times in each field to get it to accept the numbers correctly. Additionally, there may be something different with the syncing as I've had almost zero issues for years, and since the update, I've lost several time entries and had issues syncing across devices. I really wish they would roll the update back. I'm going to look at new systems if things don't improve and will no longer be moving my clients to this platform.
doenst track time automatically like Web Activity Time Tracker
Billable won't stay on by default.
I like your tracking much, but I didn't find a way to contact tech team, so I write this feedback here. I hope so of them read it. As for me all working great, but one issue that really boring me. When I run the chrome the toggle extension icon have active state (ping), but when I press there is not tracking on and icon become grey. Could you plesae fix it so if there is not tracking it was grey as it was.
New version (3.0.0) outfit probably newer, but here are things which made it worse than previous ones: 1. It takes more space 2. Project and Tags fields are not showed anymore for new task, I need to press each button for them separately and then press again to focus in text field for search. 4 additional clicks for every new task! It is really annoying. 3. Text search for tags is case-sensitive - why? 4. There is no button to delete in the list - I need to press on the task firstly. Again additional click - what for?
Good in every aspect but ONE. I had to close my account and delete the extension because the Toggl entries don't show on Google Calendar. I want them both to be in perfect sync, otherwise it is very confusing and against what it aims to achieve.
Custom domain integration does not work more. Last update broken it. No jira, no youtrack. So app useful only for listed at integraion set services.
It WAS good. Now for the past month or so the button doesn't work and no error message is shown either. It used to work like a charm but now it only works on some days while it doesn't work at all on most days. And yes, I do have the latest version.
Does not work properly, the stop button stopped working, very laggy extension, does not store the auth properly, thus asks sign in again from time to time
Love Toggl and the extension is dead simple & consistently getting better.
I wish it supported rounding as time is added instead of just rounding at the end of a period for a report. Since it doesn't round as soon as time is added it's difficult to know when I've hit x hours for the week without going and manually tallying.
An excellent & helpful extension! I like using it for activities because I haven't allocated a defined time, so I can better track & evaluate the time spent. I also combine Toggl with Zapier for the automated additions of these activities in Google Calendar. I also tried the Pomodoro feature, which is nice but different from what I am looking for now. Thank you!
I like this useful extension! But something happened recently - I cannot stop the timer anymore, only on the site
Love it. Needs Google Calendar integration in a way that the time entries will show in google calendars.
jeez i just added for the trial period and already feeling pressure on the premium features... i want to try it out no premium features to see if it works for me as an individal person (I have no team). do i have to wait until the 30 days is up to see if the free plan is enough for my needs? it looks really cool but i don't want to spend time setting up wtih features I won't have in the future. can't you toggle it off?
The face button of the tracker is with no indication of a recent time in work. The embedded Pomodoro timer is with no breaks. I cannot believe in it. Half-stuff (
This is a simple and effective way to track my time while working on projects. Gives me a good sense of my speed and how I can plan for future works.
Working beautifully. Including the shortcuts.
Great tracking tool!
Best Tracker and generous Free Account feature. Thanks Toggl. And the support is very responsive, too. I hope to grow my company with this awesome tool further
the extension works well. I like toggl, BUT... the extension adds malware/unwanted yahoo search engine that you can't get rid off, unless you remove the extension. Shame on you! Disappointing!!!
Very nice service. Help my works really well
I've been using the extension for a while and I love it. Thanks, Toggl!
I just love it!
Really useful
Been using it for years, love it
Amazing! I use it everyday. Recommend.
i cant integrate it with todoist.. the instruction here (https://toggl.com/track/todoist-time-tracking/) was obsolete
Great simple time tracking! Note: If you are a person that works later than 0:00 some days, reports can be pretty confusing (then your log entries will be split into 2 days, as there is no option to choose when your day usually begins)
wow, they added pomodoro timer here which is amazing. the extension and the timer is getting better each time. thank you for your work <3
Very useful, easy and convenient to use. Many additional functionality - pomodoro, statistics, invoicing, reporting.. thanks for all!
Toggl Track offers a fantastic time & activity tracking service through browser extension and apps. I have been running into an issue with the Chrome extension lately, however, that the extension icon appears incorrectly — when there's no running time entry, the icon shows it is activated (pink instead of gray) and the white circular progress bar would randomly changes (at the 6 o'clock mark to the 12 o'clock mark). It'd be great if you could please look into it. Thank you.
I have been using it for a month, and I really like it. I love the reminders (when I leave it on, or when I haven't logged any hours). A wonderful tool!
Great app. Works perfectly, I love the Todoist integration.
I love the Pomodoro functionality! Keeps me honest and optimizes my study sessions.
Removed because it always asks me to log in every day, really annoying. The MACOS app doesnt do this
I've always loved the simplicity of using Toggl, its pretty PDF reports and its gazillion integrations! Also the Chrome add-on is well-worth. It integrates even with self-hosted solutions such as Kanboard. As for the support staff: I remember reporting something to you guys and communication was excellent. All the best to each one of you, you're awesome.
i like it so far!
I am a very basic user. Love it so far. Thank you for the free version.
Simply: the best time manager out there! It works without any problems in sync with Chrome and Android. This is what I was looking for! Great job! Update: minus one start as popup notifications stopped working. Was trying everything to fix that issue in Chrome. I have even removed Chrome with all the settings and nothing...still the same issue.
been using it for a month so far and enjoyed it
Amazing
simple and helpful! thanks
This app has helped me organize everything this summer. Very glad my brother recommended it to me and I in turn would happily recommend it to anyone looking to stay on track or keep themselves accountable for how they spend their time.
Best time tracking app with the best user interface
Waaaa, so nice! Cross platform too! that's what I needed
Fantastic extension, thank you for existing! It would be nice to have the option to block the team members from editing their own time and reserve that option for the admin
Just perfect. Try it, you'll see !!!
The best! I use it from todoist. Awesome Integration! :)
This extension is great, as a freelancer I just couldn't imagine working without that.
I have my misgivings with what all data the extension collects (saw a review that says it tracks my activity on every site), but I've found the app built excellently. Suggestions: Custom pomodoro notification & alternative to ticking sound (a rain background would be really nice). Plus option to decide the length of the pomodoro break (Maybe a bell ring after 5 mins of 25 mins pomodoro passed- as a reminder to get back to work?)
Absolutely LOVE it! I'm using it every day. I primarily use the chrome extension to keep track of time spent on each client's tasks. Also love the easy reporting I can generate for each client. I highly recommend it!
Huge fan of Toggl, mostly because of this extension. You'll definitely want to dig into the options when you set it up as features like the integrations and pomodoro timer are easy to miss but very helpful. If I could change one thing, I'd make Toggl prompt you visit a site it's got an integration with, or perhaps suggest some popular integrations when you install for the first time. Integrations are a game changer, but you probably won't know about them unless you dig through the settings when you install this.
Works great... when it decides to work, way too often am i working and when I click on the stop button it just keeps counting time and I have to then remember to go back and change the amount of time it counted manually. Very frustrating. Other than that its a good experience, If this didn't happen as often as it does I'd be way happier.
Really helpful tool
Very useful for my day to day work, nice work guys
Excellent!
Great tool for time tracking. The chrome extension makes it easy to remember to track tasks. Being able to add a toggl button to apps is great too (specifically salesforce). the Pomodoro method included within the chrome extension is great for maintaining focus and avoiding burnout throughout the day.
I needed a simple extension to keep track of my working hours. That is what I had before the upgrade. Now I cannot figure out how or where to make corrections - or if that is even possible anymore. But I was a free user so I will be on my way, now. ~~~ This reminds me of one of my mottos about the computer age: "I hope that when those genius disrupters in Silicon Valley get old and retire, their kids keep changing everything on them all the time, too."
The best way to track time as a contractor
Great app. Has everything I need.
I just started using this extension with Asana. It works great and I love being to able to track how much time I spend on various tasks. However, one thing I'd love to see is to have the toggl button show up in the "Board" view of tasks. Right now I can only see the toggl button in the "List" view.
I think this extension is great. Currently teaching myself how to code and this is a great way to keep track of how much time I spend per day/week. It's definitely been helpful with my productivity since I started using it. A couple of small suggestions I have found when using the extension. When using the timer in Pomodoro mode, the alarm to notify you when your session is done is great. However, it would be nice to have a timer for your break period as well (i.e. 25 minute on, 5 min break). After the 5 minutes is over, another alarm to signal it's time to get back to work. Besides this, the color scheme could be updated to something lighter and more appealing. When starting a work session, it'd be refreshing to see a prettier theme rather than the current colors. Anyway, still appreciate and enjoy the extension!
I really enjoy this extension, my only problem is that every time I stop a timer (when using the Pomodoro feature) it will start a new cycle, yes, but keep counting the one that I stopped previously. Later on it will mark the end of the stopped Pomodoro cycle and even count it towards my tracked time. It's very annoying to have to go back and erase the time it counted, as it throws off my tracked time.
Pros: Covers my needs for working, easy intuitive interface, convenient reports. Cons: I tried using it for both personal time tracking and work. Created 2 separate workspaces for that. But on the dashboard and in the extension, all time entries get mashed together, with no way to separate them. Gonna have to use other extension for personal time, until a way to separate time entries is added.
Great tool if you use ClickUp. Only wishing for better pomodoro functionality.
Been using it for about a week now. Unbelievable, where has this app been hiding. Tried many time tracking solutions. This one integrates so well with Trello and its interface works really well with my workflow. Took a little bit to figure how to use and thus configure the Projects/Clients/Tags taxonomies for my needs. Wish the Pomodoro feature worked better with Trello and jumping to the next item in a checklist without starting the clock from 0. Also wish even with the Pomodoro feature disabled we could still have the option to keep the clock audibly clicking or any other sound, which serves as my "whip". However, that's all the gripes I can come up with. Highly recommended!!! Love the Timeline feature and the way it records what the hell you are doing regardless. Keeps you honest! :-)
Changing my life.
The bug of this extension IRRITATES me and I've already uninstalled this extension now, I am currently using chromebook now and, After I clicked and use the extension, I've got stuck at the login section even though I've already clicked logged in and currently logged in. I've uninstalled and reinstall this extension many times, but it still doesn't work. I beg you guys PLEASE! fix this bug, thanks.
Great tool! I would like a way to tweak the pomodoro settings directly in the main interface. Other than that, it's perfect.
First of all, great overall app and extension offering plenty of features for free. But there *has* to be a way to single click start & stop the timer. Maybe this can be an option that you can enable, but what I wanna do when I click the extension icon is to start/stop the timer, not bring up the interface. I don't know how you'd access the interface in that case, but being able to stop the clock with a single click is way more important.
Amazing, Amazing, Amazing!! School + Work + Extracurricular + Programming + Life = way too many things to keep track of.
I wish if i could just pause the pomodoro without it re-starting everytime resume and more entries added .Hopefully you'll add this option
Thank you so much for the excellent effort, I prefer the old RED color theme instead of current color #564260
It's a waste of time, Every time needs to check time zone and crashes if you travel
Good enough for my current use.
Advertised Asana integration, but I can't get it to work. All of the website support I've contacted has out of date screenshots and doesn't seem to understand my issue.
I really like this service for the most part, but there's one feature that's missing that makes me use the webpage instead of the browser extension: In the extension, there is no autocomplete for task names. This is vital for me! I track time spent on GitHub issues, so what I do is use the integration the very first time, then I type it in the remaining times. Without autocomplete, it's not realistic for me to manually type in the full issue title and number.
I like the Tracker so much. The only thing, I miss as a feature is auto stopping the tracker after an idle time
It's not something you'd want to pay for providing that you are logged out all the time; the statistics does not stretch further back than recent 01/01/YEAR; there's no search functionality (in the extension) and on and on. I pay for many apps but this is not going to be one of them
Excellent tool
Great tool. It would be nice to be able to see not only the time period for every entry, but also the time it started and ended. And edit those.
Finally I've found a time tracker that has built in Pomodoro! Hurrah! Unfortunately, it's very "Western 9-5 Mon-Fri" centric because the "Remind me to track time" only works on "weekdays". But I need to track time on a Saturday and Sunday, and be reminded to do so!
Very good extension with well made integration in all devices. I miss the classic theme. Please add an option for getting back to the old visual identity. I'm not very keen on purple for tools like this. Only reason why I don't really use Dracula theme for example. It is well made and is made for a huge amount of tools so we can standardise our tools, but purple just doesn't feel good (my personal opinion). Looks like every day is Halloween
great tool but I'd love it if I could change the week days as I work Sunday - Thursday
The new colour scheme is awful. Please turn back previous one or at least provide users with the option to choose.
I hate the new color scheme enough to leave a review, the icon on my location bar makes me throw up, it's so bad. Find a color that looks better on white. Tip: red was perfect.
Used to love it. Unfortunately recent changes provided few bugs that makes it quite annoying to use. Such a shame, happens so many times to good products :(
Used to be a good tool for time tracking, then misguided management and marketing got involved to break all parts - account flow, usage flow, even basic features hidden behind paywalls, site replaced with something that is flashy but unusable. Look elsewhere for something that's worth getting involved with.
Great pomodoro feature, great support.
Absolutely love this chrome extension! SO helpful to use for projects. Just set it and forget it. Love that it does all the heavy lifting for you. Thanks Toggl!
I've been using Toggl and its Chrome app Toggl Button for years now, both for work and personal projects. It's simple and effective - the tool is very accessible and gets out of your way as much as possible. Love it!
My productivity level went through the roof thanks to the Pomodoro feature. I highly suggest you get this extension ^u^)
Toggl is absolutely awesome, and this button extension works great. Intuitive, straightforward, no BS, great for studying or fighting procrastination. I'm very grateful that this is freely available.
Pretty dang good since they added dark theme.
The button is great! I use it to go through my Todoist list using Pomodoro. The only thing that's missing is the ability to start a timed-break after the Pomodoro session ends. It would also be great if, once you finish a given task, you could switch to another task in your todo list if the current Pomodoro still has time left.
Great with integrations!
You are going a great job guys, I will make video tutorial in my Tube channel explaining how to get befint from this amazing tool especially with Asana. <3
Pays for itself by reducing unbilled hours
simple, cross-platform and veryuseful!
Tried different other. Nearly the best solution by the grouping of the same Pomodoro activities. Love it.
I love this tool. I have tried MANY and keep coming back to Toggl. UI is intuitive. It does exactly what it supposed to and I love the multi-platform support. It's made my sessions of deep work much more productive.
I installed this extension on the latest version of Chrome 80.0.3987.163 (Official Build) (64-bit). I logged in to my Toggle account and enabled Evernote in Integrations. I checked that in the "manage extensions" page, that the options "Automatically allow access on the following sites" and *://*.evernote.com/* are on. I turned off the Ublock extension. I restarted Chrome. The "Toggl button" does not appear in any of my Evernote note webpages. Waste of time.
Functional and works as advertised except that there is absolutely no Toggl integration showing up for be in any of my web apps like Google Calendar or Notion. This was one of the main reasons I downloaded the extension and it's frustrating that I can't simply start a Toggl timer from an event in the calendar like advertised.
This extension and Toggl in general are great. I even use their invoice template and attach a PDF of my report for my clients. It's so intuitive and you can customize it down pretty far. I'm a big fan. Even when my client suggested Harvest because it has integrations with Asana, I'm sticking with Toggl...and of course it also has integrations with all the apps I use as well since there are well over 130 in there. Thanks!
doesn't work with windows 10 scaling... EDIT: works now! and works on MacOS too! Thank you for making this that much easier to use!
great! simple as possible
Unfortunately not working with Trello, if so tell me how, but your introduction video ist not showing how.
An amazing plugin, has really helped my business grow and help me be more accountable to myself, my team and my clients. Would highly recommend for the designers, developers and creatives out there who are looking to grow their business and add true structure to it. I love toggl!
Does this take screenshots?
Wow, what a mixed bag. When it works great. Seems to consistently lose track of its mind, though. For example, you stop the timer in your toggl tab. Then randomly you start getting alerts that your timer is still running. Except that its not. Except that it is. Search all your tabs, refresh your timer tab, everything is fine. Then later, when you go to send invoices, the dang thing ran all day and now your clients are hitting the roof. Have a nice day.
Fantastic extension - I love it. I am so thankful to all the developers. No problems at all with it in 2 years of use :)
Improved the app a lot by shipping new features regularly. It's easy to use when you customise the options as per your needs and style.
Toggl is a fantastic company! They are passionate about customer service and feedback, as demonstrated by the fact that they mailed me a free T-shirt some time ago when I provided feedback multiple times within a short period. Syncing among devices has improved and it's extremely convenient to use the Toggl browser button!
It's okay for what I need it to do. It can be annoying to constantly reset the default project even though I have the option enabled to remember the last chosen project. Because of that, I waste a lot of time fixing those errors.
This is a great tool
Amazing app! Keep on developing it please :-)
