How it works

  1. 1

    Follows the app in front

    Pulse records which window you’re actually using, not what’s open in the background.

  2. 2

    Names things clearly

    Apps appear with their real names and icons, ready to tag as Work or Entertainment.

  3. 3

    Shows focus, not just time

    Switch counts and average focus show how scattered or steady your day was.

What you get

  • Top apps ranked by time, with icons
