  1. Minimum Hours for being counted present

    Currently, Manictime server marks someone present if they have any time on the computer in a given day. However, it is not uncommon at our company for someone to log in to their computer via Remote Desktop for making arrangements for being OOO (specifically for sick leave).

    It would be helpful to have a configurable minimum value that, if not exceeded, would indicate the person was absent for the day.

  2. customizable copy format of tagged time

    at the moment, a simple "copy" of a tagged time results in a single line containing
    "tag" "start time" "end time" "duration" "notes without line break"

    at the moment I miss the date here as well as line breaks that were originally inside the notes. For the time format I would not need seconds in the copy output.

    maybe you could make the format customizable, or add date and linebreaks?

  6. Add Ability to Specify Tag Beginning... Now.

    Ideally I could hit a button to define what Im working on starting right then (eg Project A), and then hit the button a time later when I switch to something else (eg Project B) and so on with projects and lunch etc so that at the end of the day a complete profile would exist based on the projects I specified I was working on.

  7. Complete search functionality for tags

    The way I enter in notes to tags would allow me to do a search to find out how many tagged entries I've made based on certain keywords and properties. However, ManicTime is missing a search functionality for this. The current search only seems to allow for searching the date you are viewing on the timeline, and the Statistics tab in ManicTime does not have a keyword search function (where it would tally up and calculate everything that met the criteria).

    I would like to be able to search for certain keywords over the past 3 months to see how…

  8. Individual height scaling of timelines

    Instead of scaling all timelines together, it would be much more convenient to scale each timelines height individually.

  9. Update previous tags based on saved file name or folder name

    Please add the functionality to automatically tag email replies and the original message when we save a file in a specific Outlook folder. The tag name would be the same as the folder name.

    This same functionality could be added to automatically tag word documents based on the project folder in which they are saved.

    For instance... I will read an email in my inbox, then reply to that email. As soon as I reply to the email, I have software that automatically moves the original email and the reply to a specific folder in Outlook. I want Manic Time…

  10. Select and copy fields from timesheet

    Since I'm registering time with Oracle PSA I have to reenter the timesheet data manually in the fields of the Oracle PSA Web Application.
    It would help tremendously if it would be possible to select individual fields on the timesheet in MT and copy paste it into corresponding field of the PSA web Application.

  11. Track paths in dayview

    Filenames are listed; date and time is listed; but many filenames are generic, repeated, or simply not descriptive. Knowing where to find them will help to identify what project they relate to.

    This would be great, but sadly there is no silver bullet for this. There is no way we can get file path from open applications. All we can do is rely on APIs of the applications to get this information, but applications need to support this and we need to write this for each application separately.
    So currently it works for some apps, mostly office apps and few others which have this displayed in the window status bar.

  12. Exclude window titles from Screenshots

    It would be great to be able to exclude window titles from screenshots in addition or instead of process name.

    This way I could still reference what kind of task I was doing on a work web site and not collect screenshots of my facebook slacking in the same browser.

  13. save statistics page for later

    currently, it is already possible to save the statistics graph as an image.

    i would like to be able to save the data i'm browsing as an internal manictime file, that i could open later and see the same results, being able to tweak them. essentially, then, loading this saved file would open up the statistics page with the filters and results loaded.

  14. Auto-tag based on other tags

    For example I google ManicTime and click on the ManicTime website. I can tag the latter activity based on its URL, but how do I tag the former as "ManicTime, ~googling"? Sometime the keyword does not go into the title, so I can't use it to autotag. Both the document and application timelines are the same, so I can't use append tag. The absorb tag just has the same color of the activities in between in the timeline, not a tag that I actually want.

    This is also useful when you want an autotag to be prioritized, that is no…

    I don't quite understand the solution. Absorb was added just for this use case, but what you could do instead is make a normal autotag for google, with query part as part of autotag. 


    Select document timeline, in filter below type:

    #"https:\/\/www\.google\.com\/search\?q=([^&]*)"


    then click down arrow on the right of filter text box, Add to autotag and for title type:

    {{1}}, googling


    Then you will get autotags like manictime, googling....

  15. Tag Reminder as New Window

    I don't ever really see the little bubble notifications in the corner of the screen reminding me about my current timer, or to tag untagged time.

    It would be nice if a new window could pop up, or a sound.

    I have two monitors, and I am rarely looking at that bottom corner.

  16. More rounding options (5m, 10m) and hide seconds when rounding

    Would be nice to have more options in the "Round to" drop list (like 5m & 10m).

    When rounding is enabled, the seconds could be hidden from the generated report since they are always ':00'.

  17. Paint with tags

    Select a tag from a list and just use the cursor to apply to timeline. Right now you can do similar, but in reverse order. Select the time, click Add Tag, select tag from list. My idea would be to have a list on the side of the main screen while using the Paint Brush tool. The tool and tag stay active.

  18. Mark tags from tag source

    I do not want to run ManicTime Server on my computer, but I want to see which tags originate in my txt file tag source.

    My use case: I automatically export tags from my employer's database and book the hours tagged in ManicTime automatically via a custom personal tool. The only time where I have to manually intervene is when I chose a tag that does not exist anymore.

  19. Allow MT to self-diagnose and repair the screen-shot function ...

    Screen capture keeps falling over on all my machines. If MT could confirm the last save and run the recommended repair sequence automatically (and hidden) if the screenshot was not obtained, there would be no need for the Admin to do it every few days :)

    I'm a fan of software keeping itself alive when the manual fix is the same every time.

    Great software btw :)!

  20. Email on large chunks of inactivity ...

    It would nice if the unit would email (hidden) when it is sitting without an action for more than x amount of time, allowing management to see a break in activity.

    In v2025.1 overtime violations emails were added which you can set to daily. This might be implemented later on but for now this is declined due to not having enough votes.
