How the awork browser extension works

Time tracking options

In the extension, you'll find the main time tracking options:

• Start and stop the timer for projects or tasks

Set a default project

When you start the timer from the extension, time is logged to a selected project or task. If no project is selected, your default project is used.

2. Click Open settings in the top right

3. Select a project from your workspace as your default project

Enable timer integration in tools

3. Enable a tool by checking the box

When a tool is enabled, you can use the awork timer directly on that tool's website.

The awork browser icon shows you through its color whether the extension is active:

• Gray: You're not logged in and not tracking time

• Black: You're logged in and not tracking time

• Purple: You're logged in and currently tracking time
