About Time Cop
A time tracking app that respects your privacy and gets the job done without getting too fancy. I'd rather not do time-tracking at all, but since its a necessity for my work, it's either use an app or keep track of things manually (which I'm terrible at). There are many time tracking apps on the app stores (and I have tried several of them), but each of them has at least one pain point that eventually drives me off—some cost more money than I think they should, others have (what I consider) poorly designed interfaces, some are way too complicated, some don't export data easily, most require an internet connection, I have privacy concerns with a large number of them, etc, etc.
Privacy and F-Droid
F-Droid builds Time Cop from its published source code and flags anti-features such as ads, tracking or reliance on non-free services.
