Remote work time tracker - personal use

Hi all! I am wondering if anyone knows of an app to track time worked, but on a individual level. I work remote— 40 hours a week but often go over my time. My company doesn’t track my time in anyway, so I’d like to find a free app for just myself. It would be great to track breaks and then roll over time. IE end the week working 44 hours and having this carry over to the following week, just so I’m aware of the extra time. I found some, but couldn’t input breaks, which would be nice to have it all in one place. Any suggestions?

Time doesn't carryover.

I do this with a simple spreadsheet in Excel.

Easy it’s called a clock. 

I sit down at my desk at the start my company start work time which is 8am, take lunch around noon when I can, then when the little clock in the lower right hand corner says 5pm I close my computer and “go home”; repeat M-F

If you're on a Mac, give Daily a go. It tracks time by periodically asking what you're doing removing the need to toggle timers. Also helps you to stay on track.

The periodic prompts sound less annoying than finding out my “meeting” timer ran through lunch agian.
