Track your time without being tracked
Furtherance is a time tracking app. It allows you to track time spent on different activities without worrying about your data being captured and sold.
Type in the name of the task you are working on, add a @Project, some #tags, and a $rate, and press start. That's really all there is to it.
To sync you task history across multiple devices use Furtherance Sync (opens in a new tab), which is end-to-end encrypted.
To get started, you can either self-host it (free), or subscribe to the paid, easy-to-use, [hosted version](furtherance.com/sync) for $5/month. Sync subscriptions have the added benefit of supporting this project, so thank you!
Besides helping to pay the bills, tips show me people want me to continue spending time on Furtherance. I truly appreciate these, and I am humbled by what I've received so far. If you've gotten value from Furtherance, you can become a patron:
Thank you so much!
