Timesuck

Are you spending too much time on the computer? Find out with Timesuck.

Timesuck logs your

• computer usage
• application usage
• website usage (via browser extensions)

Aren't there better solutions available?

Almost all existing solutions send data back to an external website (I'm looking at you RescueTime).

Timesuck stores all data locally in a SQLite3 database. No data is ever sent to 3rd party servers.

Download

• Timesuck for OS X

Browser Extensions

How do I see my usage?

$ pip install timesuck 

or if you don't have pip

$ easy_install timesuck

Now with the tool installed

$ timesuck

which will show you your usage report for the day, which will look something like this
