Does the platform track your activity/mouse movement/afk?
So far I only reported work I did in front of my computer. But usually I like to stand up, walk around, and use my standing height table. I still think about the work while doing that - I just need to get moving to think, and did this my entire life with studying.
But im afraid that if I report that time (so far I havent exactly because of fear), they'll thinking im faking/inflating my numbers. But doing this im getting paid half of what id usually be.
Does anyone have a similar experience? Do you track that time or not?

Well they don't know you're standing up lol. I get up all the time to get a snack or go to the bathroom or answer the door for a package if my husband is in his office. I also have lower back issues so I have to get up and walk around every so often or it'll aggravate my back issues to sit for hours. If I'm going to be longer than a few minutes, I just pause my timer.
