ActivityWatch is an open source app that automatically tracks how time is spent cross-platform on devices, mainly PC and smartphone. It is a privacy-first alternative to services like [[RescueTime]], [[ManicTime]], and [[WakaTime]]. It can be used to keep track of productivity, time spent on different projects, screen habits, or just to understand how users spend their time.
