WinHours

Screen time for Windows

Where your day went.

WinHours counts the time you spend in each app, site and window, takes out the minutes you were away, and keeps all of it on your PC.

One click on the tray shows today.

Apps, sites and window titles

The site comes from the address bar of Chrome, Brave or Edge. No extension to install.

Away time taken out

Five minutes without the mouse or keyboard and the clock stops, unless a video, music or a call is playing in the app in front. Three or ten minutes, if you prefer.

Private windows stay private

An incognito or InPrivate window counts as time for the browser. Never its sites, never its titles.

The WinHours panel from the tray: today's total, the day by the hour, the most used apps and the day by category

Your day, week, month and year, in one window.

Click Day, Week, Month, Year or All in the window, as in the app. Every row there opens its own page.

The WinHours window on a made-up week: the total against your usual week, a bar for each day, the busiest day, the apps and sites ranked by time, and the categories on a ring

Seven days against your usual week, and its busiest day.

Your screen time never leaves your PC.

WinHours writes what it counts to one file in your own folder, and reads it back to you. That is the whole trip.

Stays on your PC

  • Every app, site and window title, and every minute of them
  • A site by its name only, like github.com: never the page, never the full address
  • Private windows as the browser's time, nothing more
  • All of it in one file, winhours.db, in your own folder

Leaves your PC

  • Once a day, "is there a new version?", carrying only WinHours' version
  • Anonymous counts, like how often the panel opened. One switch in Settings turns them off
  • Never an app, a site, a title or a time
  • No account to make
  • Delete your history any time
  • Uninstalling asks whether to keep it
  • Read the privacy page

Free for Windows 10 and 11.
