Chronovigil

Chronovigil is a time tracker that stays out of your way.

Start a timer in one tap — from the app, your Lock Screen, the Dynamic Island, a Home Screen widget, or your Apple Watch. Chronovigil learns your routine and offers what you're most likely doing right now, so logging time is usually a single tap on a suggestion.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account to create, and no server of ours to trust. Everything lives in your own iCloud database and syncs privately between iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch.

ALWAYS AT HAND • Live Activity — the running timer on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island • Apple Watch app and complication — start and stop from your wrist • Home Screen widgets for the running timer and today's total

KNOWS WHAT YOU'RE PROBABLY DOING Projects are scored by time of day, day of week, location, and what you were doing just before — so the right one is usually offered first.

HABITS, YOUR WAY Define the axes you actually care about — input versus output, importance versus urgency, or your own — and see your days sorted along them. Charts turn weeks of tracked time into something you can read at a glance.

SEE WHERE YOUR TIME GOES • Edit and correct entries as the day goes on • Reports that answer real questions about your weeks and months • Projects with colors, icons, and productivity scores

OPTIONAL AI FEATURES — BRING YOUR OWN KEY Ask a question in plain language, such as "how much deep work did I do last month?", and Chronovigil turns it into a chart you can pin and keep. You can also dictate a time entry, a title, or a note instead of typing it.

These features are entirely optional and off until you set them up. They use an API key that you provide for OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or any OpenAI-compatible service. Your key is stored in the iOS Keychain, and nothing is sent anywhere unless you ask for it.

START IN A MINUTE Pick a role — student, freelancer, consultant, researcher — and Chronovigil sets up a sensible project list that stays editable. Already use Timing.app? Import your existing data.

WORKS WITH YOUR MAC Chronovigil for Mac uses the same private iCloud database, so a timer started on your iPhone or Apple Watch shows up on your Mac, and the other way around.
