  1. Allow regex to match on more than just first line in title

    Sometimes, the key information that might be useful to extract via a regex is in the description rather than in the title.

    Sometimes, the key information that might be useful to extract via a regex is in the description rather than in the title.

    For example in the built-in Computer usage timeline, one can access via Regex whether the computer was active or away this is available via the builtin {{title}} tag.

    However that exact same information is generally available via the {{group}} tag.

    If one uses say the multi-desktop feature of windows https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/multiple-desktops-in-windows-36f52e38-5b4a-557b-2ff9-e1a60c976434
    To for example segment ones work…

  2. create folder automatically in document timeline (when the DocumentType is set to Task or something like that in tracker plugin)

    i create a tracker plugin and i set the DocumentType to Task.
    but ManicTime would not create a Task folder, or put the file into a custom-created Task folder, it just put the file outside any folder.

  3. let user combine or merge the document in Document Timeline

    when file name is changed manictime tracker would treat them as different docs, which is not tracking friendly in some situation (when i still want to treat them as one file). so it would be better if we can combine or merge document maunually, by right click or something like that

  4. ability to fill previous document timeline after loading new tracker plugin (by clicking a button or something like that)

  5. Make the icons solid rather than outlines

    Put the icons back so that that on the stopwatch the Stop and Play buttons have solid symbols rather than outlines. They're too small and fuzzy for just an outline. Now I have to stop and really look. The way they were before this release I didn't even think about it. I know which to press. If you still want to have the little circles around them, that's fine. But at least make Play and Stop solid rather than just outlines.

  6. A plugin to show ARC browser urls!

    I've been using ManicTime for many years; it's a great software. Recently, I switched my browser to Arc and noticed that ManicTime doesn't show the URLs I visit in Arc. A plugin or a native feature for that would be amazing.

  8. Edit locations from mobile app on desktop client and/or server website. View locations on map.

    I would like to edit locations from he mobile app within the desktop app and also view the locations I visited on a map. In general: It would be nice to manage the locations on my desktop or within server website as I can do it in the mobile app. Very useful to check where I was and how long.

  9. Extend/Shrink start/end of a selected tag using keyboard shortcut

    Extend/Shring start/end of a selected tag using keyboard shortcuts.
    When selecting a tag on timeline, If I need to extend/shrink its start/end to a specific point in time, the normal way to do this is to mouse drag the start/end edge to the desired point on the timeline.

    It would be more easier and efficient if there exist the following keyboard shortcuts:
    - keyboard shortcut to move (extend/shrink) the selected tag's start edge to the current mouse's position on the timeline and another one for the end edge.
    - keyboard shortcut to extend the selected tag's start edge to the…

  10. Improved Virtual Desktop Tracking

    I organize my client projects into virtual desktops on Windows 11, with each desktop dedicated to a specific project.

    It would be very helpful if the app could better support tracking these virtual desktops. Currently, it’s possible to see which desktop is used, but it’s subtle and not easy to identify. Hovering over the activity status in the timeline shows the active desktop, but this is cumbersome.

    Could you add a feature to make the active virtual desktop more visible, perhaps with a color-coded bar or indicator? This would greatly improve usability for tracking project times.

    Thanks for considering this…

  11. blur people faces in screenshots, so that the actual faces are never recorded

    would be possible to automatically blur people faces in screenshots, so that the actual faces are never recorded?
    Otherwise this happens during calls.

    OR block recording when the webcam is acrivated in a call.

  12. Custom title: Easier creation / sharing and application to past data (of limited range, e.g. past 7 days)

    It would be great if the CustomTitle.txt feature would get a community source so that not every user has to re-invent the wheel and has to write a regex for every application.
    Similar to the plugin management, a searchable online repository that can be used to add lines to CustomTitle.txt would be great, with an online suggestion feature to add new entries.
    Please also keep the plaintext file and openness of this feature even with this addition.

    Similarly, it would be great to apply new CustomTitle.txt document/application regex rules to the recorded data of the past 7 days.

  14. integrate with gpt-4o

    I've just tested a CSV export of part of my day in chat gpt and it correctly identified which parts of my day were productive, what software I used and the total time I spent in work. I then asked it to include relevant support tasks, like explorer operations, and it did that too. I found this far quicker than assigning tags or autotags.

    I'm not sure what an integration would look like, but a dump to clipboard of csv data of the current day might be a start. The possibilities are amazing, especially if you throw screenshots into the…

  16. make usage details more powerful - add filter, sort by A then B

    Usage details could be so much more powerful if you could filter it in the same way as the timeline. The results of that filter could be turned into a report - without the need to tag.

    For example, I tag all my email usage. But there is nowhere to output a spreadsheet grouped by title. Having totals for each group on that table would also be amazing - so you could see instantly that you'd spent 30 mins on one email thread, and 15 minutes on another.

  17. Request for ManicTime Mac Deployment on Vercel

    Can the Mac version of ManicTime be deployed on Vercel? Currently, deployment is through Docker, which significantly uses resources. Vercel seems more efficient. Are there any plans to support this?

  18. Export video timelapse

    I'd like to be able to show my clients exactly why I'm billing them for 4 (or 44) hours work. Even if the timelpase option was only available per day this would be great. FFMPEG has done the heavy lifting. All you need is to put the jpegs into an array and send them off to FFMPEG. You'd need to specify an output folder in manic time options and bobs your uncle. I have done this manually but its a faff:
    Select only jpegs (not thumbnails). Rename as a sequence, send to video converter.

  20. autotag abilty to remove screenshots for sensitive classifications

    if the use of a banking web site is detected it could be a finance person access a company business account or a staff member accessing their personal bank account at lunch time. there are privacy protection issues and cyber security risks if the screen shots show bank account details.
    the idea is that there is an option on the autotag that automatically deletes the screen shot but the url is kept.
    similarly, a person that does the payroll may need screenshots deleted that relate to staff pay or personal bank account details.
    it would be best if the set…
