Setup and start using Activity Tracker Plus
“Timer” is a new feature that we integrated into Activity Tracker Plus 4.0. Think of timer as your stop watch or a count-up timer. Using timers you can do the following
- Track elapsed time since an activity or task took place. You can start a timer and see how long its been in active status. For example, how long its been since I was born? or how long its been since I last watered my plants?. Elapsed time in a timer is always displayed in Years Months Days Hours Minutes format
- Track hours for multiple activities or tasks. Unlike the default Toggle view, Timer view will allow more than one activity or task to be in working status at any given time. You have an option to add the elapsed time in a timer to your total working hours in your time logs or monthly summary.
From your activity list page, you can switch between timer view and toggle view using keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Alt + V or by clicking Menu –> Timer/Toggle View

Managing Active Timers And Timer Logs
You can view all active timers and timer logs from Timers tab under Dashboard. Here you will have option to start a timer, update an active timer, delete active timers or timer logs, add or remove elapsed time in timer logs to your work hours.
Including timer log elapsed time to your work hours
By default, hours in your timer log is not included to your work hours. If you want to include timer log hours to your work hours you have the following options
- Go to Timers tab under Dashboard and under timer log section, select all the timer logs to be included or excluded from work hours. If included, your hours gets added to total hours in your weekly time logs and monthly summary.
- Go to activity or task edit screen and select “Yes” for “Add Timer Log Hours To Work Hours By Default?” and save this activity or task settings. Now when you start timer for this activity or task, the timer logs is automatically included to your work hours
Displaying Active Timers On Web Sites
You can set up social links to display all your active timers on your web site or on social media for your friends or clients. Go to Social Links tab under Dashboard and create a new social link
I always wanted to track time for more than one activity at the same time. This is an excellent feature that allows me to do that!.
Thank YOU!
I really want to download either Activity Tracker (preferred) or Activity Tracker Plus but I’ve looked all over this site and can’t find a download button. I tried clicking on the Vista Sidebar link and all I get is gibberish–a long page of it! I need this app for my work. How can I get it? Thanks!
@Connie: Activity Tracker Plus is a online only application. It uses Google Spreadsheet to store data. To set-up Activity Tracker Plus visit http://www.screeperzone.com/atplus/ and click “Create New Spreadsheet For Activity Tracker Plus” button.
We are working on a offline version that syncs to online version when internet is available. We have planned to release it next month.
