2.0.6 Latest Mini timer and a smoother experience

New

  • A small floating timer you can keep on screen, with your tracked time shown live in the tray and menu bar.
  • Filter tasks by board section and move a task between sections from the app.
  • After an idle break, the app tells you how much idle time was left out.

Improved

  • A refreshed look, with clearer notifications and smoother scrolling.
  • The idle screen is more accurate.
  • Syncing is more reliable on slow or unstable connections.
  • Sign-in is steadier and the app quits faster.
  • Startup and live updates are faster and more reliable.

2.0.5 Accuracy and reliability update

Improved

  • You can mark a task as complete from the app, and your teammates on that task are notified.
  • Every build is now uniquely identifiable, so we can tell exactly which version a problem came from.
  • Error reporting is cleaner and more precise, so real problems are easier for us to spot and fix.

Fixed

  • Screenshots now work on computers where they had silently stopped being taken.
  • A task can no longer show more time than its project or your day total when you also track from a second device.
  • The activity percentage no longer drops to zero while you are working.
  • macOS The app no longer wrongly asks you to check Input Monitoring after you type a password.
  • Linux Fixed a rare loop that signed you out again and again instead of once.
  • "Sync paused" no longer shows while the app is only waiting to retry.
  • The app no longer reports a problem when screenshots are switched off for you.

2.0.4 Smoother, safer tracking

Improved

  • If screen recording is switched off, your manager is told right away instead of seeing empty hours.
  • Menu items now respond where you click.

Fixed

  • macOS The app no longer freezes or stalls while you work, and hours can no longer go missing because of it.
  • The idle screen now counts correctly and its buttons always respond, so you never get stuck on it.
  • Screenshots keep working after a restart, instead of quietly stopping for the rest of the day.
  • macOS You stay signed in between launches.
  • A running timer can always be paused or stopped.
  • Project and task rows now tick live and always match the total at the top.

2.0.3 Stability update

Improved

  • The Windows and Mac apps are faster and more stable, and they now recover on their own if they stop responding.

Fixed

  • You stay signed in. The app no longer signs you out unexpectedly.
  • The app notices a change to your computer clock right away, so tracked time always reaches the dashboard.

2.0.2 Accuracy and reliability

New

  • Clock drift protection. If your computer clock is wrong, tracked time is kept safe on the device and syncs automatically once the clock is correct.
  • macOS A clear banner appears when Screen Recording or Input Monitoring permission is missing, with one click to open System Settings.

Improved

  • Screenshots taken offline or during a connection problem now upload reliably and appear in the correct time slot.
  • Sync messages now say clearly whether your time is safe and whether you need to do anything.

Fixed

  • Idle detection stops the timer as soon as you go idle, so time no longer counts up behind the idle screen.
  • The timer no longer shows a negative value such as "-5:-4".
  • Creating a task on a slow connection no longer creates duplicate tasks.
  • Windows Clicking the app icon now always brings the window back from the system tray.

2.0.1 Reliability update for Windows and Mac

New

  • Release notes now appear inside the app when an update installs.

Improved

  • Updates can install from the login screen, so a fix can reach you before you sign in.

Fixed

  • Windows Fixed a sign-in error about platform specific components on computers without the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime. TimoDesk now installs with no other software required.
  • Windows The installer is digitally signed, so Smart App Control no longer shows a publisher warning.
  • macOS The app runs natively on both Apple silicon and Intel Macs.

2.0.0 All-new native apps for Windows and Mac

New

  • Windows A rebuilt native Windows app that starts faster, uses less memory and takes up less disk space.
  • macOS A rebuilt native Mac app written in Swift, with native notifications and better battery life.

Improved

  • Tracking continues through restarts, power loss and time offline, without losing recorded time.
  • Projects and tasks are available offline, even when the app starts with no connection.
Updates

Updates install on their own

You do not need to do anything on this page. The apps update themselves, and this page is the record of what each update changed.

01

The app checks for updates

TimoDesk looks for a new version in the background and installs it. You do not download it again, and nobody has to push it to the team.

02

Fixes can install before sign-in

Updates also install from the login screen. If a problem stops someone from signing in, the fix can still reach their computer without anyone touching it.

03

Release notes appear in the app

When an update installs, TimoDesk shows what changed. This page lists the same changes for every version.

04

Nothing else to install first

The installers are signed and include their own runtime. You do not need to add a framework first, and IT has nothing extra to approve.
