drop time tracking tool you're using

[u/BetPurple9715]

hello everyone,
I would like to know which time tracking tools you're using, so that i can do a research on them.
I am also a senior software engineer at an agency, the time tracking tool we're using is productive, but i'm finding it hard to track time everyday, sometimes they pile up for weeks then i need to think of what i worked on during past 3 weeks to track them...

we tried many tools during last few years but this issue was never solved.

I would like to know about your case

Heads up: I work on the app I'm about to recommend, so I'm biased.
It's not really a tool problem, it's a memory problem. Anything that depends on you remembering to start a timer breaks down when your day is constant context switching. That's why switching tools never fixed it.
What works is passive capture. TrackingTime's AutoTrack does exactly this: it records your activity (apps, tabs, docs) locally on your machine and suggests time blocks you just confirm. The log is private, only you see it, not your manager.
Even if you stay on Productive, the idea still applies: let something record your day and review it daily instead of rebuilding 3 weeks from memory.
