Can you please add an idle tracker to this? Please, Please? At least make the timer stop when you computer goes idle.

Hey Frank,

Yes, you can edit the time amount. Just click on the numbers, and edit away!

I’ve got the latest version (1.05), but sometimes keep the timer running by accident. Is there a way to reset it or edit the time before sending it off?

Hey Lex, It sounds like you've got an old version of the widget. Please make sure you've got version 1.0.4 and see if it keeps happening. Hope that helps!

Even though mostly I love the widget, there is a very annoying “but” about it. Every time I restart or shutdown and start my computer it reloads the time with the last time I submitted. This forces me to go into my Freshbooks account, click on Reports > Timesheet Details, generate a report for that project to see if I did or not submit that time. Very annoying! You can’t be too careful with finances and time logging. So, please fix this issue! I would really appreciate it.

Cheers!

Hi guys – any E.T.A. update on when a new API with support for using desktop widgets for staff is coming? We are just in the process of setting up an integrated Freshbooks/Basecamp combo and for me the selling point on the Freshbooks piece was the sexy timetracking widget that might mean I can finally get my whole team on board with a simple, elegant time tracking solution. Woe is me to discover that I can currently only dump all hours into one user id. I see from earlier posts that it wasn’t a “tomorrow” kind of thing as of March, but if you can give any guidance on whether this is weeks, months or years out, it would be very helpful.
