Mac app/software for noting job times & hours

[stablecreative]

What software do you guys use for logging your day to day hours?

I don't want one of those bits of software with the timer etc no need... but something that'll log hours to each project that i do and total when i need?

I use a open word doc, and jot down the time I start and the time I finish parts of projects throughout the day. It really doesn't take that much time.

You could try billings? I bought it years ago (before it went to monthly subscription) and only tried it once or twice before just starting to make a note of hours in a text document... It's quicker. lol

Word doc is what I've done for years too but ball ache manually adding up and separating jobs if to same client/project...

Maybe setup an excel doc? You could have columns for various jobs then add the hours up at the end. I use it for quoting and for working out profits on jobs

We use Free Agent to create projects, log our hours and run our accounts. It is cloud based which has massive advantages and is about £20 a month. Well worth the investment to keep track of all things financial. See here; Online Accounting Software: Small Business and Freelancers - FreeAgent

Or a Google docs spreadsheet if you have multiple computers.
