7 Free Time Tracking Apps (2023)

Why We Picked It

Toggl Track is a cloud-based start-stop timer that you can use across the web and on mobile and desktops. It has an intuitive interface and is super easy to use.

We chose Toggl Track as the best app for very small teams because its Free plan has been designed with freelancers in mind. It allows up to five users, so you are good even when you grow to have a few other people on your team. You can track time for unlimited clients and projects. Paid plans enable you to track billable hours too. You can also create and use unlimited tags to keep reports organized.

The biggest trouble with start-stop timers is what happens if you forget to switch on or off the timer. Toggl Track resolves this by sending reminders if you are working but the timer is not on and idle time detection. It even sends you an email reminder if the timer is on but you are not working. You can of course choose to opt-out of those emails.

Track provides detailed daily, weekly and monthly reports. You can also generate reports by clients, projects or tags and, if you are in the paid plan, by billable hours.

Who should use it:

Toggl Track Free plan is perfect for freelancers and solopreneurs in teams of up to five people.
