Tags
Apps say what tool you used; tags say what it was for. A tag groups time across apps — “Client A” can cover an After Effects project, a folder of briefs, and a shared site, and every view can then answer “how much Client A this month?”
Creating and editing tags
Section titled “Creating and editing tags”Create tags from the right-click menu on any app or breakdown (Create new tag), from the Tags button in the Home header, or in Settings → Tags. Each tag has:
- Name and an optional Parent — tags nest into a tree (see below).
- Color — tap the swatch for presets or a custom picker.
- Emoji or icon — pick an emoji from the built-in picker (or paste any),
or upload an image (PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, ICO, SVG,
.icns). It shows wherever the tag appears: chips, charts, calendar, reports.
Nested tags
Section titled “Nested tags”Give a tag a Parent and it becomes part of that tag’s subtree — up to four levels deep. Parents roll up their children everywhere: filtering by “Clients” includes every client under it, a goal on a parent counts the whole branch, and the Timeline’s tag panel shows the tree. When a breakdown carries both a parent and its child, the more specific chip is the one shown.
Applying tags
Section titled “Applying tags”Right-click any app or breakdown and tick a tag. Tagging is additive — it applies to time that isn’t tagged yet, so existing tags survive and one app can carry several tags across a day. Unticking removes just that tag (and pauses it so it doesn’t creep back).
A toast confirms how much time was tagged. Four or more tags on one row collapse into a +N chip — click to expand.
Tagging forward, not backward
Section titled “Tagging forward, not backward”Hover a tag in the right-click menu and hit the fast-forward button to point all new activity on that app or breakdown at the tag from that moment on. Past entries keep their tags — handing a site from one client to the next is one click.
Automatic tagging
Section titled “Automatic tagging”Pin a tag (make it sticky) and it keeps applying itself. Pinned tags have two per-tag switches — Auto-tag new breakdowns and Auto-tag new sub-breakdowns — controlling whether newly seen items under a tagged app inherit the tag. The Applied to list in the tag’s page shows everything it’s attached to; pause any row to stop future auto-tagging there without touching history.
You can also tag directly on the Timeline by selecting blocks — choosing between tagging these blocks only or also tagging new activity like them.
Filtering and stats
Section titled “Filtering and stats”Every major view has a tag filter — Home, Activity, Charts, Timeline, and the report editor. Selecting a parent includes all descendants. Each tag also has a Tag Stats panel with its totals and trends.
Archiving
Section titled “Archiving”Deleting is rarely right — a finished project’s history is still worth keeping. Archive a tag instead: it disappears from filters, pickers, and the manager, but its history stays intact. Archiving cascades to children. Restore anytime from Settings → Tags → Archived.
