Toggl is also helpful for new starters who want to get an idea of their daily productivity or to know how much time they need to translate or review a given number of words, which can be helpful for setting rates. Maybe it could detect if there is no activity at all on the computer and send a notification after only a few minutes, before it’s too late to correct it.
One thing that could be improved is that if you forget to turn off the timer, Toggl only sends a notification after 8 hours, which basically means on the next working day.
Whenever you draft your invoice or want to gain some insight into your productivity, check the reports in Toggl to get the exact time spent on each project. When you switch tasks or leave your desk, press stop. There’s the option to create color-coded clients to sort the projects and, in the paid version, to add rates to the tasks to make the invoicing process easier. You just need to create an account, create a project, give it a name, press play to start the timer and that’s it.

So how can you be sure of the amount of time that is spent on a given task, especially if, like me, you work on many different things at the same time, which means that the time needing tracking is the sum of 45 minutes here, 2:15 hours there, etc.? There’s a simple and free online app that works wonders for this: Toggl. However, some tasks, like proofreading and editing, are commonly charged per hour. Translators usually charge for their work according to the number of words, with several factors thrown in that can alter the final price.
