Memtime vs Timing

Memtime

• Lawyers and consultants who bill in short time increments
• People who forget to start and stop timers
• Teams that do not want activity data uploaded to a server

Timing

• Mac users who want time recorded without starting timers
• Freelancers who bill clients from a record of apps and documents used
• People who want tracked data kept on their own Mac by default

Memtime

• There is no free plan; after the 14-day trial a subscription is needed to log in again.
• Automatic tracking runs only on Windows, macOS and Linux, and activity data does not sync between devices.
• Basic has no project software integrations, Connect allows 2, and SSO and call tracking need Premium.
• Dollar prices are listed, but the vendor says checkout shows the amount in euros and the card provider converts it.

Timing

• The tracker runs only on macOS; phones and other computers are limited to the web app.
• There is no free plan: a subscription is needed after the 30-day trial.
• Each seat covers a set number of personal Macs: 1 on Professional, 2 on Expert and 3 on Connect.
• Team features, the Web API, Zapier and MCP integration are limited to the Connect plan.

Memtime

Automatic activity timeline

The app runs in the background and records time spent in programs. A day can be reviewed as a timeline, a list or a week calendar, in intervals from 1 to 60 minutes.

Activity data stays on the device

Captured activity is stored only on the user's computer and is not uploaded or synced. Only the time entries a user creates are shared with a team or an integration.

Calendar sync

Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, the macOS Calendar app, iCloud and other CalDAV calendars show appointments beside tracked activity, on every plan.

Memtime Projects

A built-in web-based project platform for creating projects and tasks, inviting users with roles and reviewing team time entries from any device, including a phone.

Project software integrations

Connect and Premium import project structures from tools such as Jira, Asana, ClickUp and QuickBooks and send time entries back in a two-way sync.

Phone call tracking

Premium adds iPhone and Mac call history and call system integrations such as RingCentral and Zoom, so calls appear in the timeline.

Timing

Automatic tracking

Records the apps, documents and websites used on the Mac without timers. Private and incognito browser tabs are discarded, and an exclusion list keeps chosen items out.

Timeline and rules

An interactive timeline shows the day's activity and lets you add offline time. Option-dragging an activity onto a project creates a rule that assigns similar work from then on.

Calls, meetings and Screen Time

Tracks time spent on phone calls, meetings and calendar events, prompts you when a video or voice call ends, and can import mobile app usage from Screen Time.

AI summaries and MCP

AI summaries group related activities and highlight the main topics of a day. The Connect plan adds MCP integration so an AI agent can work with your time data.

Reports for billing

Timesheets export as PDF, XLSX, CSV or HTML, with rounding and billing status tracking. A GrandTotal integration passes tracked time to that invoicing app.

Web app and teams

A web app syncs with the Mac app and can be installed on a phone to start and stop timers. On Connect, teams share projects and admins review members' times.
