“Waste less time and get more done with RescueTime, an outstanding time-management tool that provides intelligent insights into how you spend your days. It's one of the best productivity apps we've ever tested.” - PC Mag
RescueTime for Android is an automatic productivity and time tracker that helps you understand and control the time spent on your Android device. Get rich insights into how you spend your day, build better habits, and beat distractions.
FEATURES:
* Invisible productivity and app-usage tracking for your full digital life
RescueTime automatically tracks application usage on your Android device and desktop computer (with the free RescueTime desktop app) to give you a full and accurate picture of how you spend your time. Activities are automatically categorized by productivity level, so you can see how your phone usage impacts your day, work patterns, and overall focus. (Privacy options let you control exactly what gets tracked.)
* Set screen time goals and control your phone usage
Whether you want to cut hours or minutes from your daily screen time, RescueTime for Android can help. Get an accurate view of how much time you’re spending on your Android device each day and then set custom screen time goals based on your personal targets. We’ll notify you in real-time if you go over.
* Keep all your daily goals front and center to help build better habits
Screen time isn’t the only factor in creating a healthy balance with your digital devices. Want to spend more time writing and designing? Lower your time spent on social media? All your RescueTime goals are front and center in the Android app, so you can get a quick view of how you’re doing and stay on track.
* Log offline activities from your Android device
Get a clearer picture of how you spend your time by logging offline time—meetings, phone calls, lunch breaks—directly from your phone.
* Automatically go into do-not-disturb mode during FocusTime sessions
RescueTime’s FocusTime feature allows you to block distracting websites when you need time to focus. With RescueTime for Android, FocusTime sessions automatically put your phone in do-not-disturb mode so you’re protected from all digital interruptions.
PREMIUM FEATURES:
RescueTime Lite is free forever. However, for even more control over how you spend your time, you can upgrade to RescueTime Premium for 12/month or 78/year.
RescueTime Premium using desktop app and website includes:
FocusTime distraction management: Block distracting websites on desktop and put your phone in do-not-disturb mode when you need help staying focused.
Real-time Alerts: Get instant feedback when you spend too much time on distractions (or a congratulations when you hit your goals!)
Unlimited data history (RescueTime Lite only shows a 3-month history)
More reporting details and filters: Get deeper insights and individual document names
Track Offline Time: Log time in meetings, phone calls, and away from the computer for a full picture of your day
