Time tracking launched in Toggl Focus

Hey! We’ve recently launched time tracking within Focus.

Track time your way

Flexible time tracking: Manual, real-time, Pomodoro, or calendar-based — however you work best. Learn about active time tracking here and automated time tracking here.

Keyboard shortcuts: Quick adds and updates — so managing tasks feels less like a task. Learn more about them here.

Let us know how you like time tracking in Toggl Focus in comments below! :backhand_index_pointing_down:

Hello @Rasa

I really love what you have done with Toggl Focus. The UI and UX are both great!

But as mentioned on this topic: Focus Tasks - #4 by aebs90 as existing Toggl Track users, we would love the entries under “Logged” to be synced to Toggl Track for Reporting purposes, instead of being totally independent.

Any plans to implement this feature before the version 1 launch?

I agree also there is no option to import my exportable data from track into focus. I would need to recreate all of my already created project. I love the concept but not a lot of options.

@aebs90 @swayer89 We hear you, your feedback has already been shared with the product team. While we are unable to share future plans as they may change, we hope to be able to meet your needs better in the near future :slight_smile:

Toggl Focus is amazing, the UX is perfect and matches my workflow in a shocking way…

However I can’t use this product full-time unless there is bi-directional syncing with Toggl Track. I can’t re-create all of my clients + projects + estimates, previous hours logged, etc. into a new system. The overhead and switching cost is too high.

Yes, we’re definitely working towards allowing users to move their data from Track to Focus :slight_smile:

Loving my experience with Toggl Focus so far. The one thing still missing to allow me to completely replace Toggle Track is the desktop and mobile apps, particularly for macOS and Android in my case. The notifications / reminders and convenience of starting and stopping tasks from global shortcuts are essential to me. Alternatively, this could be circumvented if Focus synchronized automatically with Track which already has all these apps.

Other features I’d like to see are:

  • filter by client in the sidebar tasks filter;
  • task tags;
  • integration with existing task managers (in my case, Todoist)

Hey @tiojoca, thanks so much for your feedback. The team is currently working on a mobile app and tags – so stay tuned. :wink: I’m also curious about the integration you’d need with Todoist. Are you using both tools together now? How do you make them work, and what would an ideal integration look like for you?

Glad to hear you’re already working on the app and tags!

Ideally, Todoist integration would look similar to Focus’ existing integration with Google Calendar (where you can see and edit Google Calendar events in Focus) but with tasks. Tasks with no dates on Todoist would should on the tasks sidebar, and could be edited and scheduled like any other task, and those with dates already scheduled would show on the calendar.

Note that Todoist already supports Google Calendar integration so any integration in Focus with Todoist would mostly be useful for the tasks sidebar or tasks that aren’t currently scheduled, and to edit tasks.

Eventually, a simple Todoist (and other platforms) import might be a better solution as I can see Focus completely replacing it altogether for me at some point.

Is there a way for the chrome plugin to track in focus? Right now it’s tracking separately in toggl track and not really merging properly.

I’d love to easily be able to track with the plugin still!

Hi, are you going to copy different rates and reporting from track to focus? What’s the timeline? There are different roles in projects sometimes for the same person, so it would be great to adapt the rate to these conditions. Or if not - setting rates per project might work as well, but it doubles the amount of work on our end when working on more complicated client relations. And will it be possible to send the timeline or proposal or recent tasks view/status/spent or estimated hours?

Yes! Same here! I would love this feature!

How to read the weekly logged time report? Alternatively is there any way to sync to Toggl Track? Currently there is no function to show the timesheet in Focus making it much less useful.

I’m a toggle track user, switched to focus last month.
I need to invoice my tracked time to my customer, but I can’t find any way to export my tracked time per client or project.

Hi @Toon_Nelissen, we just launched a CSV export, could you give it a go and let us know if that works or if you need something different?

I went back to toggle track and manually copied all my timelogs of half a month into track to generate the reports for my clients.
Until focus has decent time tracking and timetracking reporting features and tags I’m staying in tracks.

Hi Rumi

Thank you for your upfate on CSV export.

Is there any update on the integrition of Toggl Focus and Track?

Is there any update on the timesheet / weekly logged time report function in Toggl Focus
