I have a feature request ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

  1. Show billable/non-billable total time summary in Day tab summary

    Currently, in the Day tab, you see the timeline in the top section and in the bottom section you see on the left a breakdown of the individual tags assigned in the order they were assigned with durations, and on the right, these same tags summarised into total duration for the period selected.
    Down in the bottom-right section's statusbar, it shows the total time for all tags which includes both billable and non-billable.

    My request is that this statusbar total be modified to show total billable, total non-billable, as well as the total of these combined. This would make it…

  2. Restart manic after update

    Twice now I have updated the desktop app and not had it restart until I rebooted or noticed it wasn't running. I caught it quick this time but the first time it was 3 days of lost tracking. If I have it set to start automatically with windows you would think restarting after an update would make sense.

  3. PHPStorm plugin

    A plugin for #PHPStorm would be great! Maybe you can use https://github.com/wakatime/jetbrains-wakatime as a basis?

  4. Point in Time Markers

    Ability to add Point-In-Time Markers to any of the timelines.

    I have a custom timeline that pulls from a local web source - it shows me my telephone logs - incoming and outgoing calls. Timelines work great for that because there is a start and a finish.

    I want to also show when I receive and send SMS messages as well. I can already import them from my phone - but they are point in time - not duration.

    Right-click -> Add Marker
    Select the Icon, enter the time it occurred at, one or more tags, and notes.

    It would…

    I wish this would get some more votes. I think there is value in markers, line charts, like CPU usage chart, where it would show a changing value, screenshot timeline, which could also be used for photos...

  5. Merged Timelines View

    It would be very helpful to be able have a merged timeline view with the Applications and Documents merged together. This would give you a much better view of where you spent your time.

  6. Please add ctrl+A screenshot to select entire day in timeline

    Once I finished tracking all periods in a day, I like to select all the rest and assign a generic non-billable task, so I know that the entire day is accounted for. This would make that task much faster.

  7. Request for additional schedule backup options

    I'm using ManicTime Pro.

    I have a feature request for scheduling backup.
    I make regular backups every day, including the screenshot database.

    The contents of the ZIP archive data contain daily screenshots from the day you start the backup.

    I want to back up only one day's worth of screenshots to a ZIP archive.
    This is to save space.

    I made an image of what I want to say, so I hope that you will see the PDF and install it as an additional function.
    * I think it would be good if there was a check function in the…

  8. More Recent Tags options

    Expand the Settings -> Tagging configuration to change the way Recent Tags is displayed:

    1. Recent Tags (Globally)
    2. Recent Tags (Individually)
    3. Recent Tags (Filtered for the Application and/or Document being tagged)

    3 is huge. If the same Application and/or Document is always tagged the same - why do we still need to sift through the recent tags list each and every time.

  9. Total billable time in Timesheet

    Provide totals at the bottom for Billable and Unbillable time as well as the grand total.

    Eliminates some toggling you have to do now to get these numbers.

  10. Custom alert for Tag level 1 based on duration for specific period (month)

    The possibility to set an alarm would be VERY very helpful, if in a certain period (e.g. month) a certain tag on level 1 (!) Has done a user-defined number of hours.

    In this way, a service contingent for a specific customer can be tracked and maintained very easily.

    Or does something already exist? So far, you can only create notes for a day and not at the tag level.

    I would be happy if that would work.

  11. Ability to assign monthly hours goal per tag

    Be able to add in tags and assign a monthly goal for hours assigned to this tag. Actively track actual time assigned to tag vs. goal.

  12. Track the conversation in Skype

    Skype gets tracked correctly when it is running, however not which conversation it is showing. Ideally MT would show which skype thread is being discussed and track against that project. Currently skype title just says "Skype" which is pretty useless. Is it possible to auto detect the chat that is active?

    Using:
    Skype version 8.65.0.78

  13. Citavi Plugin

    A Plugin to see which project is opened in Citavi would be nice. Currently I have multiple projects there and can only track that through the application timeline where i cant tell the projects apart.

  14. Comparing Estimated time with actual time

    Estimated time for a project/task is often different from the actual time spent. It would be great if there's a feature that showed the difference

  15. Hit "play" on a previous tagged entry to start timer again

    After working on Task A, you switch to Task B and create the new tags. Then, when you want to switch back to Task A, it would be nice if you could just right click on the previous block of time (or select from the drop down in the corner) to start the timer again for Task A. Instead of having to retype in the popup (just takes more time).

  16. Installation without admin rights

    ManicTime needs admin rights for installation which is restricted in lots of companies. But there are software which can be installed without admin rights like Visual Studio Code. It is installed in C:\users\youruser\AppData\Local\Programs

    It would be very nice if manic time could do the same if it's possible.

  17. Add export option 'All timelines' instead of each timeline seperately

    By clicking [settings-symbol] -> 'Import,Export' it is very easy to export all data recorded. However you get 4 seperate files.

    There are multiple options to export data to xlsx or csv, but none of them puts the label, usage-, program- and document information next to each other in columns (just like the main screen of Manic time has these timelines above each other).The easiest way I have found to do this is to export each timeline (4 options: labels, somputer usage, programs and documents) seperately and put them together in Excel, but that is quite an exercise.

    If the file…

  19. Tag Editing Tools - Move/Drag, Cut/Split

    More vesitility for tag placement and editing. This could work similar to how a video editing program like Final Cut X works.

    1. Move/Drag Tags - Click hold and drag to move tags to a different location on the timeline. This is especially usefull for planing a day with tags as planned time blocks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSlZC2GZd_Q

    2. Cut/split tags - this would be usefull for editing tags that were placed previously but a change is desired. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVcx24lCvzg

  20. Automatic prompt for call notes

    For the add in call log on Android, it would be nice to be prompted in some way to enter notes about the call which can make it easier to recall events and subjects when tagging later
