Just circling back to say again how much I hope this gets a sprint soon. With better and better rituals and planning tools in Akiflow, I'm jonesing even more for a way to track not just the planned time but ACTUAL time. Just running a timer doesn't do it for me -- something about having it measure actual time spent on a task right next to what I'd planned for really focuses my attention. It also really helps me plan better as I learn how long things take!

It is a must. I mean, it could even be as simple as a toggl integration

Would really appreciate a time tracker, just a simple timer / pomodoro mode for a single task would absolutely do! This is the only feature that makes akiflow not feature-complete for my workflow

I am new to Akiflow. I came from Sunsama. Akiflow has features that Sunsama doesn't and I am liking the experience (so far). I like time slots (mentioned below and also the way I can filter and/or display and/or order tasks for planning.
What I do miss is a timer. Whilst I didn't always use it, it was (at times) really helpful for keeping myself accountable for time on a task and when combined with a Focus Mode it was a real productivity booster.
Please give tracking time on tasks some serious consideration.
One would also think that the time statistics gathered from such exercises could feed into Akiflow analytics for those that want to take it a step further and examine how they spent their day/week/month in further detail.

Brad: Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying Akiflow so far. We appreciate your suggestion for a timer feature and will definitely consider how it could enhance accountability and productivity. Your idea about integrating time statistics into Akiflow analytics is also valuable. Thanks for sharing!

I love this idea! Right now I create tasks in Airtable that move to the inbox in Akiflow to plan my day. I still need a tool like Airtable to do time tracking, but if that were added to Akiflow, I would be able to remove that step in Airtable and plan right from Akiflow.

I like this idea! ❤
After trying Sunsama, Morgen, Trello and various other tools I love Akiflow so much - mainly because of the time slot functionality that makes the difference to all other apps: Knowing which evening block is allocated for which area of my life having various engagements that are now nicely clubbed together. And putting the individual tasks into the blocks with the possibility to move the whole block or get the remaining tasks automatically rescheduled makes so much ore sense for me.
Time tracking in Sunsama is great indeed.
My current workaround for time tracking in Akiflow (as a guy interested in life management rather than task management) is this:
I block my whole days and weeks using the super-useful recurring time slots. My aim is to know how I spent all 24hrs and 24/7 weeks. As the time slot duration is not counted in the statistics I add in every slot at least one task of the same project (in my case life area) with the total time.
When executing I tick-off the tasks and I re-arrange the start time and durations according to the actuals (that's my time way of tracking). If I finished a time slot I correct the durations of the individal tasks as well or I add urgent surprises if needed. If I get distracted by something I add a task allocated to the project "fun and hobbies" if it was intended or "time waster / social media / games" if it was too much of a distraction.
At the end of the day I make sure the sum of my tasks (not calendar events) is 24hrs. The calendar events I don't count because as far as I know I can't allocate a project to them. This may be a request to improve: allowing the project allocation not only to tasks but to events as well.
Thank you soo much!

or integrate toggl track with Akiflow (https://track.toggl.com)

It would be fantastic to have a way to add time worked on an Akiflow or external task (eg Clickup), even when the task isn't completed. Perhaps add a 'shadow copy' of the task to Akiflow calendar. When you finish working on the task for the day, leave a record on the calendar (Shadow copy), and then reschedule the task for further work.

An integration with the time tracker Rize would be great for this.

James: Is there any specific feature in Rize you like? We'd love to know!

Would love to be able to just have Akiflow open as my project management/calendar/task tool, but without a Time Tracking feature I also have to either have Clickup, Toggl, or Google Calendar open in a browser to track my tasks. That being said- Akiflow already connects to such a variety of tools; "Time Tracker" integrations would be so helpful to add to the list.
