ActivityWatch

ActivityWatch is a free, open-source, and privacy-first automated time tracker that helps you understand how you spend time on your devices. It is cross-platform, running on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android, and offers extensibility through watchers such as browser extensions and editor plugins. ActivityWatch tracks active applications, window titles, and categorizes usage to monitor productivity, manage screen habits, and analyze time spent on projects. All data is stored locally to ensure privacy, making it a great alternative to services like RescueTime and WakaTime.
