Web Activity Time Tracker

⚠️⚠️⚠️ Important notice! The Chrome extension has been sold. So I am not responsible for any changes to the functionality of the extension. ⚠️⚠️⚠️

The new version is available on the Chrome Store https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/timespy-block-websites-po/ggomgkmpcnmfhgmpfaphkbmnokllflom

Web Activity Time Tracker keeps track of how much time you spend on the web and presents the stats in a useful and intuitive way. You can set a daily visit limit for sites and block it after the expiration of the limit.

The development version can sync activity across multiple browsers and devices through the backend in backend/. The shared backend target is https://tracker.gabrielmalek.com.

You can see your daily stats.

And you can see your overall stats.

If you have suggestions or problems using the extension, please submit a bug or a feature request.

Chrome Web Store

Web Activity Time Tracker is available via the official Chrome Web Store.

Install as an extension from source

1. Build the unpacked extension:

corepack pnpm@8.15.9 install
VITE_GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com \
corepack pnpm@8.15.9 exec vite build --mode development

2. Open local browser extension pages:

corepack pnpm@8.15.9 open:extension-install

3. In each Chromium browser, enable Developer mode.
4. Click "Load unpacked".
5. Select the dist directory from this repo.
6. Enable "Allow in Incognito" if private-window tracking should be collected.

More detailed agent/handoff instructions are in docs/LOCAL_EXTENSION_INSTALL.md.

Run

Extension watch build:

corepack pnpm@8.15.9 dev

Local backend:

TRACKER_SESSION_SECRET=change-me \
GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_IDS=your-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com \
corepack pnpm@8.15.9 backend

The extension defaults to https://tracker.gabrielmalek.com. Set VITE_SYNC_API_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8787 before building if you want a local-only test build.

Google login needs a Google OAuth Chrome Extension/Chrome App client for the stable local development extension ID:

bkiifobeblghdofgfbpakgoknebdkeec

Set VITE_GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID before building the extension and pass the same client ID in GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_IDS when starting the backend.

Backend deployment notes are in docs/TRACKER_BACKEND_DEPLOYMENT.md.
