The Timer page is arguably the most important section in Toggl Track. It shows the logged in users their most recent time entries.
Tracking Time
Wondering how you can create a time entry? Visit the Creating a Time Entry article for more information.
Focus Mode
Need to reduce clutter? You can go into Focus mode from the Timer page (paid plan feature). To do so, click the Focus mode button in the Time Entry area while there is a time entry running.
While in Focus mode you can:
Stop Focus mode by clicking X in the top right corner
See the currently running time entry
Stop the currently running time entry
Press Esc to stay in Focus mode without it taking over the full-screen
Just under the Time Entry area you can see your total tracked time for Today and This week, along with a Views drop-down that allows you to visualize the Timer page in different ways. You can choose to view all hours, or only billable hours, via a setting under the Views control.
Clicking on Today's or This Week's totals will take you to a filtered Summary Report. The current running timer will never be included in your reports, and please note Reports are always workspace-specific.
Visual Options for the Timer Page
The Timer page has multiple views:
List view shows you all time entries in a list, allowing you to group them or bulk-edit them as needed. This view is organization-specific. Read more here.
Calendar views show time entries for the week or a single day in a calendar, allowing you to quickly see gaps in your time entries and add/edit time entries as needed. This view shows time entries across your Organizations. Read more here.
Pinned Projects
To make some of your projects easier to find, use the pin icon while interacting with the project field on the Timer page. Pinned projects will always appear at the top of the Timer page projects list.
Extra Visualizations
Besides switching between List-view and Calendar-view, you can also see other useful information using this drop-down.
Do note, you will not see some of these if you have no time entries showing on the page (for example, in a calendar view, where you have no time entries for today or this week).
Switch between showing total hours or billable hours only on Daily/Weekly totals shown on List/Weekly/Daily views.
Extra Visualizations
Daily Projects Breakdown: Total time logged for the current day broken down by Projects.
Weekly Projects Breakdown: Total time logged for the current week broken down by Projects.
Activity Timeline: View graphs of your timeline activity. More on Timeline here.
Hide Visualizations
Show/Hide weekends on calendar view
Show all calendar hours, or choose the hours you want calendar view to include
Keyboard Shortcuts
While tracking time, you can use several shortcuts to start/stop timers, and switch between timer and manual mode. Use Shift + ? on the Timer page to see a list of all shortcuts.
