Add notes to time entries

I would like to be able to add details to toggl entries.
A seperate field to the description field, to add detail to the time spent.
Currently I have to use another (much less preferred) application to do this.

Hi Mike, :raised_hands:

Thanks for sharing this! I can see how a separate field for details would be useful. I’ve passed this along to our team for review. Appreciate the feedback! :toggl-heart: Keep them coming!

Would also love this - billing is much harder to calculate when I have to group it by project, but I need to account for where time went within that project that does not align to tasks. Would love a description field on time entries, or project specific tags even. Some finer grain marking.

Thank you so much! Noted :ledger:

+1 for time entry notes. I’m really missing this from the tracker I used previously.

For me the task description is the headline. In the notes I add information I find along the way and a final summary of what was accomplished. Also if I had any significant interruptions I add it to my notes.

I’d also love to see this functionality.

Adding simple notes to tracked sessions I believe is one of the simplest and most cost-effective ways to upgrade Toggle Track’s functionality, releasing a bottleneck. Notes will make it an involved tool used during work and at the conclusion of work, not just as a hindsight tool (besides the timer that runs during work time).

I would also like to be able to tab through to update other fields (in the mini timer, a setting to pop up the field when I tab onto an icon and hit space - the current keyboard shortcuts kinda get in the way of each other).

I agree @Tamas_Perlaky , I think the task should be the primary field, with the project an automatic rollup from the task.

The existing data field could be a summary field, with an additional detailed notes field for when we need it (suggested workflow - tab to icon :pencil:, hit space, pop up a box to type in).

@LinneaCD project-specific tags - absolutely! People on different projects don’t want to wade through tags that are completely irrelevant to them; it actually downgrades that functionality as people just stop using tags, or apply whatever comes closest, or make new ones (and then there are a 102 tags and 37 are essentially the same thing….)
