Getting started with HelloTime

Install HelloTime, invite your team and track your first hours in under 5 minutes — desktop and mobile apps, team roles, projects and budgets.

How it works

  • Create your free HelloTime account and choose a workspace name.
  • Download the desktop app for Windows, Mac or Linux, or install the mobile app on iOS / Android.
  • Invite teammates by email and assign roles: owner, admin, manager or member.
  • Create your first project, set a budget if needed, and start the timer. HelloTime does the rest.
  • Before inviting everyone, decide which projects are billable and whether activity tracking or screenshots will be used at all — it is easier to announce a clear policy on day one.
  • The free plan covers 1 user. Every paid plan can be tried free for 7 days, with no credit card.
