How is it different from the in-built time tracking and management in our ios and android devices?

Awesome launch, @tk4! 🎉 Time tracking can be such a bore, but it seems like Trace is adding a splash of color to the whole experience. Love the idea of a color-coded timeline—definitely makes analyzing app usage less of a chore! Also, the focus on privacy is huge nowadays. A local storage solution is definitely a selling point. I bet using this will boost my productivity (hopefully!). Can't wait to see how it performs in the wild! Have you considered any features like reminders or alerts for certain app usage? Just a thought! Excited to give it a spin and upvote this gem!

Congrats on the launch, @tk4! 🎉 I’m curious about the built-in activity monitoring—how does it differentiate between productive and non-productive app usage? Also, for the color-coded timeline, can users customize the colors or categories to better fit their workflow? I'm all for enhancing productivity with tools like Trace, but I'm wondering about any potential impacts on system performance while it's running. Thanks for sharing this, looking forward to your insights!

@dance17219 Thanks Bryan! Trace doesn't differ between productive/non-productive apps, it shows all your app activity during a session. Also, The app colors are determined by the app icon, and you can't currently customize them. As for system performance, a large portion of the app is written in Rust, a fast & memory efficient language. I have a 1st gen M1 Macbook, and it takes < 1% of CPU usage on average.

Hey TK, Does Trace have any features to let users exclude certain apps or time periods from tracking? Have you considered adding goal-setting functionality to help users improve their time management? Congrats on the launch!

@kyrylosilin No, there aren't any features that let you exclude certain apps/time periods from tracking. Goal-setting would be a nice addition to the app - will keep this in mind for future releases.

I haven't tried so I can't give you too much insight, however, the simple home page is great.
