Q: 1) How is this different than Rize.
io?
2) Any timeline for Windows version?
3) Will same license be honored for windows verison in the future?
4) Do you have always on top desktop widget like rize.io? As it seems super easy to see the current progress without opening the app.

May 15, 2024A: Hi,
I haven't used Rize.io, so I can't make a direct comparison, but one major advantage of TimeMaster is its commitment to data privacy.
TimeMaster encrypts all your tracking data and stores it locally on your devices, ensuring that your daily activities, such as the apps and websites you use and your productivity metrics, remain private. This ensures that every aspect of your daily digital routine, including sensitive business documents, the emails you send, app usage, and website visits, remains strictly private and under your personal control, inaccessible even to TimeMaster's staff.
In contrast, typical productivity apps track your activities every second and upload this data to their servers. This is vital as policy changes or acquisitions (like WhatsApp's case) can compromise data privacy and even risk your business.
Furthermore, TimeMaster stands out with its full automation capabilities. Once installed, it runs in the background, automatically categorizing activities, tagging projects, logging time, and providing accurate productivity analysis. In contrast, other apps require manual categorization of your app and website usage, which can be time-consuming and less precise for calculating productivity metrics.
Additionally, we'll be providing a more detailed comparison of TimeMaster with other productivity apps on our website soon
2) We don't have a timeline for the Windows app at the moment. Please subscribe to this post to get notified when we launch the Windows app - https://timemaster.featurebase.app/submissions/63fc2875b03dc01adfdaa9fe
3) Yes, if we launch the Windows app, you can use the same license to activate timeMaster on Windows
4) You can see the current session duration on the status bar. Additionally, we are working on adding a widget to the status bar that gives you the summary of the day without opening the app.
If you have any further questions or feedback, please let me know.
