Time Tracking helps Workspace teams record time spent on board tasks with a single click. Once a timer starts, it can keep running while you switch tabs or apps, and you’ll see it in a small PiP gadget (Chrome) or a status banner (other browsers). Board admins can also add, edit, or delete time entries to keep timesheets accurate.
✅ Who can use this feature
Time Tracking is available for Any.do Workspace users.
