Tockler For Linux

Time management has some seriously beneficial advantages, both when it comes to our personal and professional lives. Good time management helps you work smarter, not harder, allowing you to get more things and tasks done in less time and with less stress.

Tockler is an Electron-based app that's all about time tracking. To be more precise, it's an app that automatically tracks application usage and working time. In short, it tracks how you spend your time on a computer.

While Tockler may not be the perfect solution for time-tracking for everybody, it does a pretty good job at it. It tracks how you spend your time while using your computer by tracking active app usage and the computer's state.

It records active app titles, as well as idle, offline, and online state of your computer. Of course, data tracking without a good way of analyzing it can be pretty useless.

Thankfully, Tockler has this covered as well. One of the main advantages of the app is that it provides you with a very interactive timeline chart. You can check out your computer usage for the current day, as well as for any days, weeks, or months past.

It's also very precise. You can "go back in time," and see what you were working on at specific intervals of time. You can see everything like what apps you were using and at what precise point in time.

The app can also help you create reminders for various tasks. For instance, you can configure reminders and notifications to go off when various apps are open.

Another highlight of Tockler is that it works without the need for Internet access. This means that all tracking data is stored locally on your device, and it's even exportable to CSV.

The app's GUI is yet another great aspect of Tockler. There's no getting around the fact that Tockler has a very modern vibe to it. It looks and feels like a modern app should, even though, granted, it's not as fast as a native app would be. It's also very inconspicuous.

Once installed, the app integrates with your Linux distros status bar, and it displays current data via a compact GUI and, if you want more info, you can simply open the main window.

As mentioned before, Tockler may not be for everyone and it's definitely not a complete solution for improving one's productivity. However, when it comes to tracking your computer activity, it does a damn good job, all the while looking great and not getting in your way while working.
