Does my work day start by itself in Timerfly? (for employees)

43 s video

Your company chooses how the work day starts. If it starts by itself, just use your computer in work hours and a short note says the day has started. With Start work, click the Timerfly icon and press Start work; the app reminds you if you forget. Take a break pauses time and starts again by itself; Private time records nothing. Press Stop work when you finish; a forgotten day closes at your last activity.

Does Timerfly start tracking by itself, or do I press Start?

Your company chooses. Either the day starts by itself on your first keyboard or mouse use in work hours (or a few minutes before, 10 unless your company changed it), or nothing is recorded until you press Start work.

  1. 1Owners and admins: open Settings → Organization.
  2. 2Find Work starts and click the pencil.
  3. 3Choose By itself, when the computer is used during work hours or When each person presses Start work, and save.

With By itself, owners and admins also choose how early before the shift it may start (0, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes, or any number up to 2 hours), for people who come in early. Using the computer earlier than that, at home say, doesn’t start the day.

Either way, Stop work ends the day, and Private time records nothing.
