Updated Time Tracking Apps for iOS and Android
We have just published an update to our mobile apps for Android and iOS. Beside many stability improvements this release also adds more context to your time recording routine. At the bottom you will now see the company for which you are currently working, your status (working, break or signed out) and how much time you have worked today.
