Take screenshot on every tab switch - Applications are more and more becoming tabs
Take screenshot on every application switch is very useful, but I am running more and more 'applications as tabs' in Chrome, so the 'on application switch setting' misses more detail than I would like.
I use this feature to go back in time and recover data, see what was happening at a given time. Storage is not a concern for me, granularity is. I end up setting my screenshot interval to 15 or 30 seconds, but still miss important details at this level for certain 'way back machine' type use cases.
Seems like an relatively easy add, just add a…

Are there any plans to develop ManicTime Mac even further?
I initially thought the ManicTime Mac app was just something with no client interface and I can at least turn on the stopwatch and add a tag to the server. But it appears I cannot? It seems counterproductive to tag certain activity in the Mac later as I'll have to zero in on the parts where actual work was done.
Will there be improvements in the not-so-distant future? Thanks!
3 votesCurrently we are working on cloud/Mt Server interface, so more or less anything which can be done on Windows version can be done on web UI.

Screenshot pop-up window: pin to always on top
I like that I can now pop-out the screenshot pop-up window, but I would like this window to be 'pinnable' so that it stays on top of ManicTime while I am clicking back and forth, doing my timesheets.

Better regex help
Add help text, a GUI, or similar to make regular expressions more discoverable and more easily used by users who are not advanced.
4 votesRegex are quite complex and to make a UI of this would be quite a task. I think there are a lot of good resources online for regex help.

Option to change time format to 24hr
I prefer to use time in 24hr format e.g. 15:30 instead of 3:30 pm.
If there could be an option to set this I would be very appreciative.3 votesIf there are more votes for this we might add this, but currently it takes system settings. So if in windows you use 24h format, ManicTime will also use it.

"treat sound as Active" exept some program
There is missing a very important thing in this option "treat sound as Active", there must be "except this programs" option. For example, some music apps didn't need to "treat sound".

Use the same tag list for Tags and AutoTags
I almost always need to use the same set of tags for both manually tagging and auto-tagging, as auto-tagging will take care of applications and specific app titles or app title filters, but if I switch to more general apps like notepad/chrome/windows explorer in between the specific app, I still want to tag those apps under the same tag (say it's a project name for example). However currently the two lists are completely independent, and I have to create the same tag in both tag lists :(
3 votesNot enough votes. I will just add that Pick from tags is available when created auto tag.

Quick select toolbar
I have used ManicTime for several years, and I think it's the best time tracker on the market. There is one thing, however, that continues to frustrate me.
The way the program works is perfect. However the amount of UI interaction required to do things is too high. For example:When allocating times:
- right click on the time block
- choose 'tag activity as'
- select activity (if on list, otherwise click 'add tag' and type text)this may have to be repeated for 10 or 12 activity blocks suring the day
Likewise, the timer feature is great in…
1 voteI think this is two tasks in one. One is better tagging, which I think is quite fast in ManicTime. You can just select and press a shortcut key to tag. Or just drag time and press down arrow and tag.
The other is for stopwatch with specific tag, which sounds interesting and we could work on it if there is support for the feature.

Track the folders wgere the project files are located
It would be nice if it was possible to track the Folder were the files are located. Most businesess use a folder structure that represents all the projects that are running. This way you only need to track the folder P:\clients\project.. and all files with this string will be tracked for one project.
Thanks,
Jaap3 votesMT tracks folders for specific applications. There is no way to get project file for any open application, so it is not something we can do for all applications which exist. We can support this for specific applications.

Multiple monitors registrations
It will be usefull, in a muli-monitor enviroment, to have a timeline for every monitor.
Sometime I see that the product register Outlook for long time, only because I was working on the other monitor.
Have a timeline for every monitor will be usefull3 votesManicTime will only track active application, not all applications running.
You can set screenshots to capture all desktops at one if that maybe helps.

When exporting a timesheet offer to open the file in the associated app
When I export a timesheet to Excel my very next action is to open it in Excel which I suspect is a common next action for many people. Currently it's a manual process; run Excel, locate where I saved the file and open it. If I'm processing many exports this can be a significant percentage of the time spent.
I'm about to write an autohotkey script to automate this for myself however it would be nice if Manictime offered the option to directly open the exported file after saving.1 votenot enough votes, I will just mention that you could copy, open excel and paste, if that helps.

Function to distinguish 2 programs that share the same .exe name?
I don't know where to ask this so might as well do it here.
I have 2 video games that use the same engine, so when I launched them they both have the same name (ex: engine.exe) but they both have different title name of course. The application tracker treats them as the same thing and lump their hours up together. Is there a way to separate them somehow?3 votesYou could use autotags like Alexander suggested.
ManicTime used to work this way, we used whole path to distinguish apps, but then the problem was then when for example new Firefox came, and it was in a different folder it created a different entry, so you were stuck with two Firefoxes for example. Then we decided to just use the executable for apps and it came in handy on the server as well, where you can it shows a single Firefox from multiple machines.
If this gets some more support, we might add some way where you could tell ManicTime to make an exception for specific apps.

"Until next boot" time tracking off option
Often times my usage times are not in one big, continuous chunk, but involve multiple boots. What this means is sometimes, I want to turn off the tracking which I have to do using the "Go Off The Record" option, in which the most appropriate option is "Until you turn on".
When I do this, I MUST turn it back on manually after boot for it to start/continue tracking, which is easy to forget the next day/morning and indeed I have done so :( A simple option that auto tracks on boot could really help.
2 votesOff the record has a couple of option:
- until tomorrow
- for 1 hour
- for 15 minutes
- until I turn it on
What you are suggesting seems the same as if you just exit ManicTime. Next time you start it, it will start tracking.
