Hello!
I am enjoying your website, but I have some feedback. I would like to tell you about my situation and how I’m using the timing feature.

I don’t need any of the team functions. I don’t need anything to be “billable”, I don’t need any invoice function, I just want to time what I’m doing in my own personal freelance project. I don’t need profitability reports, or any of customizations for the reports. I have no one to show them to, this is only for me, myself and I. I don’t need project forecasts or templates. I don’t need Advanced team access level management or Add time for team members, or none of the data compliance & quality features. I don’t need to sync multiple calendars or even just one. I don’t need to sync with Jira or outlook.

I do want the fullscreen timer and the ability to have a favourite tag, and more report views. That’s all. I don’t feel like paying $9 for a bigger timer and ability to view what I’ve logged. I understand that you need money to keep the site up, but why is the first tier a whopping $9? I’m just me, I’m no big team, I’m never gonna be a team. I’m working on my own comic that’s going to be published and I want to track how much time each step takes, so I know for when I’m making the next book in the series. I am overall otherwise very pleased with the features you have, but can’t you please have a tier for one-person-use for $3 or something? Scratch all the team features, all the billable features, all the extra management stuff. What about us who just have our own little project and want to just see how much time we spend on it? Most of all I am missing the fullscreen timer. I don’t feel like paying a monthly $9 just to have a big timer.

I understand that Toggl 2.0 is even more team-focused. To us who just want to time our own projects or work, it feels bloated and like we don’t belong. I’m most likely going to have to switch to another timer (again!!), it feels like… It’s really unfortunate.

Please do consider a lower tier for us who aren’t in teams at all.
Best regards,
Elise

I am also a team of one, just trying to accurately track the time I spend at work, mostly from the timer. I am compelled to use a client-approved time sheet reporting tool, where I just paste the data I copy from Toggl.
