Hello Product Hunt 👋! I'm excited to launch Trace today, a macOS time-tracker that shows you insights about your app usage. After using many time-tracking apps, I was frustrated that I couldn't see how my time was spent, so I built Trace to solve this. Here are a few things that make Trace so useful: -> It has built-in activity monitoring that tracks all your open apps -> You can visualize your app activity in a color-coded & easy-to-digest timeline - >You can see a daily/monthly overview of your sessions -> It is free & secure: everything is stored locally and doesn't leave your computer! Try it out and let me know if you have any questions/feedback!

@tk4 Hey TK! 👋 Congrats on the launch! 🎉 Trace sounds like exactly what I’ve been looking for—I’m all about those insights into where my time actually goes. Love that it’s free and everything stays local. Quick question: does it break down the difference between active and idle time in an app? Also, how customizable are those color-coded timelines? Can’t wait to give it a spin.

@tk4 Congrats on launching Trace! The color-coded timeline and local data storage are standout features that make it both user-friendly and secure. One suggestion: have you considered adding a feature to categorize app usage by productivity level? This could provide even deeper insights into time management. Looking forward to seeing how Trace evolves!

Awesome launch, @tk4! 🎉 Time tracking can be such a bore, but it seems like Trace is adding a splash of color to the whole experience. Love the idea of a color-coded timeline—definitely makes analyzing app usage less of a chore! Also, the focus on privacy is huge nowadays. A local storage solution is definitely a selling point. I bet using this will boost my productivity (hopefully!). Can't wait to see how it performs in the wild! Have you considered any features like reminders or alerts for certain app usage? Just a thought! Excited to give it a spin and upvote this gem!
