TimeScope 0.2.0 — Reliability & Insights 🕒

A free, open-source, privacy-first RescueTime alternative for Windows. All data stays local — no cloud, no account, no telemetry.

🛠️ Reliability fixes

  • Fixed tracking wedging after sleep/suspend. When Windows dropped the resume/unlock event (common with modern-standby sleep), tracking could silently stop recording. The tracker now self-heals the moment real input returns, backed by a 60-second health watchdog and a resume handler that restart the poll loop. No more "yesterday shows 0" — your data was always safe on disk; now it always displays correctly too.
  • Added a local log file (logs/timescope.log in your data folder) to make any future issue easy to diagnose.

✨ New features

  • Tray menu: added Open Data Folder and Restart TimeScope, and the status line now clearly shows ● Tracking is ON / ● Tracking is PAUSED.
  • Sidebar tracking indicator is now a clear, clickable toggle — green pulsing = on, amber = idle, red = paused. Click to pause/resume.
  • Settings: added Open data folder and Restart app buttons.
  • New "Insights" section on the Overview page: most-used app, top category, longest focus stretch, productive share, daily average, and most-active day.

🔒 Privacy

Unchanged and still the top priority: no keystrokes, passwords, clipboard, screenshots, or message/form content are ever recorded. Everything stays in a local SQLite database on your machine.

📦 Installation

Download TimeScope Setup 0.2.0.exe below and run it (per-user install, no admin rights). Already have TimeScope? Just run the new installer — it updates in place and keeps all your data.

This build isn't code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC" — click More info → Run anyway.
