TimeSwitch

by Lightning Fields

Professional time tracking built for fast context switching.

Keep one accurate work timer across web and Mac. Switch between customers, projects, matters, or internal work, continue offline, and turn every session into a clear record.

Built for professional work

Keep the timer close to every workstream.

TimeSwitch focuses on the moments where time records become unreliable: changing workstreams, losing connectivity, and moving between devices.

Workstream switching

Switch customers in one action. TimeSwitch closes the previous session and starts the next at the same timestamp.

Offline tracking

Keep tracking without a connection. Local changes queue safely and synchronize when your device reconnects.

Common questions

What professionals need to know.

Does TimeSwitch work offline?

Yes. Timer actions and completed sessions are stored locally first, then synchronized automatically when a connection returns.

How does switching between workstreams work?

Selecting another customer closes the current session and starts the next at the same timestamp, so the switch does not create an untracked gap.

Can customers use different rates and currencies?

Each customer has an hourly rate and currency. TimeSwitch keeps those values with the session and reports totals by currency without inventing exchange rates.

Can I track non-billable or internal work?

Yes. A customer or internal workstream can use a zero hourly rate, so non-billable time remains visible without being included as a charge.

Can I use TimeSwitch as part of an organization?

Yes. TimeSwitch currently provides an individual account, so a professional inside an organization can capture and export their own records into an existing billing, project, or reporting workflow. Shared workspaces and manager approvals are not part of the current product.

Which devices stay synchronized?

The same active timer is shared across the web app and macOS desktop app when those devices are online. iPhone and Apple Watch apps are also supported when the App Store release is available in your region.
