Creating Favorites

You can create Favorites from all Timer page views: List-view, Weekly Calendar and, Daily Calendar. They can also be created from a running time entry.

On List-view, use the 3-dot control next to any existing time entry to Add a time entry to Favorites.

Please note: You can add a maximum of 10 Favorite time entries.

On both Calendar views (Weekly and Daily), click on an existing time entry and use the 3-dot control on the popup to add the time entry to your Favorites.

Using Favorites

To start a time entry from a Favorite, simply click the Favorite time entry in the bar.

Start timer from Favorites Bar

We display the most micro-level detail for each Favorite's label.

  • If you only have a Project entered for the time entry, we will show the Project name.

  • If you have a Project and Task entered, we will show Task name.

  • If you have project, Task and Description entered, we will display the Description.

To start a Favorite via the keyboard, just press the number that corresponds with the Favorites position on the bar. For example, in the example above, pressing 1 will start a time entry for Responding to Client Emails. Favorites can be re-ordered by dragging and dropping them to their desired locations.

Click on a Favorite in Manual mode to create a new time entry with the same details. Enter a start and end time as needed to it and click on the checkmark to save the time entry.

Deleting Favorites

To delete a Favorite time entry, hover over it on the Favorites bar and click Delete.

Notes:

  • If the chosen Favorite time entry has a Project and Task, the app will display the Task name instead of the Project.

  • To create a Favorite from a Time Entry, it must have either a description or a Project.

  • You can add a maximum of 10 Favorite time entries.

  • Favorites are also available in the Toggl Track Android app, and will be synced between the Android app and webapp.
