The Running Timer Banner

While a Timer runs, a banner sits at the top of every page. You always know what’s tracking, and you can stop it without going back to the Timer page.

  • how long the Timer has been running
  • the Project and Task it’s tracking

The banner doesn’t show on the Timer page, since the Timer is right there. It also goes away when you pause the Timer.

Click Stop in the banner. hrglass tells you how much time it recorded.

To see the Timer itself, click Go to timer.

If a Timer runs for 8 hours or more, the banner turns red and asks if you want to stop it and set the correct time.

  1. Click Stop & fix duration.
  2. In Edit Timer, enter the real amount of time in Time, like 2.5 or 2:30.
  3. Click Save Changes.

Only want to stop it? Click Stop. You can still fix the time later. See Adding Time Manually and Editing Entries.

Signing out doesn’t stop your Timer. hrglass asks what you want to do:

  • Stop timer & sign out stops it and saves the time.
  • Keep running & sign out leaves it running. It keeps adding time until you stop it.
  • Cancel keeps you signed in.
