  1. Timer or notification every X minutes to tag last untagged time

    I'd like to receive notification every X minutes prompting me to tag. Currently I can use Tag untagged time, but I need to trigger it manually.

  4. Compact design choice

    The new design of ManicTime 2024.3 may look modern, but it wastes a lot of space with margins and padding that make the timeline and lists look crammed while lots of space is wasted with non functional elements.
    It really needs a compact option where white margins and padding are reduced to a minimum like before. Especially for Laptop displays that have small size, the new design is a step backwards.

  6. CSV-Export from Command Line

    I'd like to kick off the CSV-Export from the command line. Basically, what i'm looking for is something that i can automate somewhat like this:

    ManicTime.exe --export="Tags" > mttags.csv
    ManicTime.exe --export="Applications" > mt    apps.csv

    and so on. It does not need to be exactly like that, but if I could
    put this in a batch file, it would remove an error source from my
    current workflow.

    If the export could be limited to a certain date-range (like the existing GUI export), export date-format (unix vs. windows time format) and export delimiter (commas vs. tabs) that would be the icing…

  8. Export timelines (Auto-Tags) to CSV / Excel

    In addition to the existing export functions i'd like to export the auto-tag timeline to csv.

    Another nice feature would be an export of all timelines summarized.

  9. Support ARM architecture for ManicTime Server on Linux

    When running ManicTime Server on my Raspberry PI 4, I get the following error:

    -bash: ./ManicTimeServer: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

    It appears the ARM architecture is currently not supported.

    I would love support for ARM devices so I can run ManicTime Server on my Raspberry PI.

  11. tag shortcuts should work also inside tag window

    It would be nice if configured tag shortcuts would also work in an opened tag windows (so shortcut could be used to tag a time in the automatic popup after returning from a break)

  12. Worktime settings per user per day

    It would be great if you could set the worktime settings per user, per day. If there are multiple employees with parttime jobs, their required attendance can differ from day to day.

  13. More shortcuts please...

    It would be nice to be able to use more shortcuts. For example: Create Autotag rule, Copy Autotags to tag timeline etc. The ideal solution would be to have the opportunity to assign shortcut to every function.

  14. Sound when an event occurs

    One feature, which has been constantly neglected so far is -- sound --. The idea is to connect a sound with a certain event, usually when a time interval is over.

    To emphasize, that I'm not alone in this wish, I'm summarizing the threads which has also expressed this issue:

    • (37 Votes) Pomodoro settings : - sound notification when the break is over
    • (3 Votes) Tag Reminder as New Window : - a window pop up with sound.
    • (6 Votes) Pomodoro Timer steals focus: use system tray pop up as an option : a sound could be played to emphasize…

  16. Pomodoro technique

    It would be great if ManicTime implemented a way of working easily with the Pomodoro Technique[1]. It could be a very simple implementation:

    • A pomodoro checkbox in the stopwatch
    • A way of setting intervals aka "pomodoros" (e.g., the classic 25 minutes work + 5 minutes break)
    • A way of setting how many intervals before prompting for a longer break
    • When an a break or interval is reached, the tags dialog pops up asking you to tag your time (e.g., whether you've just been working, or breaking)

    ManicTime already does so much of what's required for a really rich Pomodoro experience…

  18. Draggable Timeline (middle/right mouse drag)

    I find it slightly cumbersome to navigate the timelines within a day.
    I know there are currently two ways to do this:
    1. Dragging the window in the fixed line below the timelines
    2. Crtl+Mousewheel

    Both are not perfect for me - dragging the timelines (not the orange bar) button would be great.
    This could either be triggered by a middle or a right mouse drag, or with SPACE+Left mouse drag (I think Photoshop uses this combination) - but I like the first two better, because the require less action.

  19. screenshots from other computers

    I can add different timelines from different computers of mine, using the same login on a ManicTime server.
    It would be great if it could download the screenshots from the ManicTime server so I can't have to open up the web interface to see screenshots (which I can't even view full screen of.
