Love the idea of logging time spent. I do the same. Care to elaborate on what you mean by 'fake work'?

Thanks. Agree that that would be great. But I feel that the complexity and the unpredictability of that additional step outweighs its benefits. What if a user doesn't have an Apple watch? I am sure there are workarounds but the fact that that is even a question a user has to ask already reflects some additional complexity.

I used to think I was working hard until I began tracking my focused work time, excluding trivial tasks like emails. I was surprised to find I averaged only 40-50 hours a week. My goal is to maintain a consistent 60.

I created a web app with a stopwatch and a bar chart log. Start the stopwatch when working and pause for breaks.

Here's an example of how my friend, Sam, has been using the app: www.countthehours.app/u/samdarmali

Hope you guys find it helpful!
