• Fixed a display issue where the total of a category was incorrect if it contained recurring projects
• Improvements in restoring backups and importing data

• The hourly rate and rounding settings of a task are now also saved as "individual" if it contains the same value as the associated project
• Fixed a bug that prevented the Mac from shutting down caused by Tyme

• Fixed an issue in the PDF export of the timesheet

Project Dashboard

We have introduced the Project Dashboard on the projects screen. And this is new: This view provides you with a summary of the progress of your project over the entire course of the project.

You can easily check the total hours incurred, start and deadline, hours used vs. planned, the status of recurring budgets, the tasks with the highest hour consumption and how much of it has already been billed or paid.

The project dashboard can be found on the projects screen in the action menu via secondary click on a project.

Recurring Budgets

By popular request of our Tyme users we have introduced "Recurring Budgets".

For example, if you agreed on a time frame of 20 hours per month as part of a maintenance contract, you used to have to create a fresh project with that same budget every month.

From Tyme version 2023.3 onwards, recurring budgets can now be planned for projects or tasks on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis. As usual in hours or euros or another currency.

You can set a recurring budget in the "Edit" dialog of a project - via secondary click on a project.

Enhancements

• A regular team user now sees the entire spent and left time for a project / task instead of only their own
• Rounding options can now be set directly in the project and overwritten in tasks if required

Changes

• Added calendar week info to bar charts
• Added option to create new time entries directly from the statistics screen (Right click > New Entry)
• Renamed Expenses to make it clearer, that you can use this task type to also enter Fixed Costs or Flat Rates, etc.
• The notes field in the time entries edit form uses the full available space now
• The team screen has been optimized to better reflect the member and license state

Live Activities

Together with the release of iOS 16.1, Tyme adopts the shiny new feature Apple has to offer: Live Activities. Any running timers are now live on your lock screen. So you always have an instant view on how long a timer is already running, what task is active and how many hours you've already worked on that day.

iOS 16 Lockscreen Widgets

With this version and the release of iOS 16, Tyme has integrated widgets for the lock screen. You now have an overview of your current working hours and running timers right on the lock screen. Tapping the widgets also works as quick access into the app. The widgets always show your times live. So all it takes is a quick glance at your iPhone to see how long you've been working today.

Plugins

With this update it is finally possible to write or use plugins for Tyme. Using plugins you can export data from Tyme in any form or feed Tyme with data from other sources. The list of plugins is constantly being expanded and improved. Just have a look at Tyme > Settings > Plugins. If you have an idea for a plugin or want to develop one yourself, check out the Tyme Plugins page and let us know.

Sneak peek at the next version

Time tracking is an important part of the workflow. Hours need to be recorded correctly for projects and tasks, invoices need to be created from the recorded times or the data needs to be transferred to other programs.

That's why we are happy to announce that Tyme will support plugins that allow data flows into or out of Tyme starting with the next release.

For the start we will provide some plugins and also plan to integrate new ones on a regular basis. As always, suggestions and ideas are welcome.

For those interested in the technology, there is already documentation (still under construction) for the plugins: https://github.com/tyme-app/plugins.

Features

• Non-working entries can now be less than a day. Half-day vacations or hourly absence times are possible now
• Categories can now have colors. It should be a lot easier now to identify categories in the statistics

Bugfixes

• Made some improvements in the team sync
• Fixed a rare crash in the time entries screen
• Fixed an issue where the first bar of the chart in the project report PDF was not drawn
