About this app

RescueTime is a productivity suite providing project and app tracking, robust reporting and goal setting, and focus support. Together this gives you a clear view of your habits and the tools to improve them. Understand where your time goes, stay focused when it matters, and build better workdays without extra effort.

One subscription works across all your devices, syncing your data to give you a complete picture of your time on mobile and desktop.

CREATED FOR ANDROID
RescueTime for Android brings powerful, simple focus tools to your phone:

• Automatic app tracking: see every app you use, with productivity ratings and daily and weekly summaries (optional permission).
• Focus Sessions with optional app blocking: stay on task with time-boxing, optionally grant permission to block distractions in real time.
• Project tracking: log time to specific projects and track progress across sessions and timers.
• Offline time: add meetings, calls, and other offline activities to complete your day.
• Reporting: View and manage your time across all your devices in the app
• Available in English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Portuguese, and Russian

FOCUS SESSIONS
Start a Focus Session when you need uninterrupted time to work. RescueTime blocks distractions, tracks your progress, and delivers a summary when you’re done.
Use timers for time boxing or to track open-ended tasks. Sessions and timers can be linked to projects, so your focused time always counts toward something meaningful.

FULL WORKDAY PERSPECTIVE
Install RescueTime on your desktop to see the full picture. Your activity, focus sessions, and progress sync seamlessly across devices. Please note that RescueTime for desktop is only available in English.

GOALS AND INSIGHTS
Set daily goals for focused work, screen-free time, or better online habits. RescueTime tracks your progress automatically and shows how your behavior aligns with your goals.
Weekly summaries highlight trends over time, so you can see what’s working and what’s not.

PERMISSIONS

Several optional features require elevated permissions. Reporting: tracking Android app activity requires the "App usage data" permission, and you can choose to use this feature or not. A few vendors and models do not support this permission. Focus Sessions: using the optional app blocking part of sessions requires both Accessibility and Display Over Other Apps permissions in order to offer its real-time intervention.

PLANS
Solo Focus includes automatic tracking with full history, Focus Sessions with real-time app blocking, offline activity logging, goals with daily targets, alerts and automations, advanced filtering, and integrations.

Solo+ includes everything in Solo Focus, plus automated project and task tracking with RescueTime Timesheets. Link activities and timers to projects to automatically generate timesheets or track progress across work and personal goals.

Free includes automatic basic tracking, daily and weekly reports, the Productivity Pulse, and two weeks of activity history. Offline time logging, project tracking, and distraction blocking require a subscription.

FOR TEAMS
RescueTime also offers team plans with shared projects, team dashboards, manager insights, and centralized settings. Team plans are only available at rescuetime.com.

PRIVACY
RescueTime does not record keystrokes, capture screenshots, or read message and website content.
You control what is tracked, can pause tracking at any time, and can export or delete your data whenever you choose.

Ratings and reviews

Useless. I have an account. I can log in online. When I sign in in the app, it says I can't do anything without a subscription. I click "get subscription through Google Play". There doesn't seem to be any way to get a subscription for this. What is the point of this app exactly? At least RescueTime classic still works.

I tried to log in with my account and I was directed to a paywall (I was always a non subscriber) which I could never leave. I mean, I genuinely considered a subscription, but not even being able to see what I'm missing out on sounds like a very bad business model and user experience.

couldn't even use the app since it says i need to renew the subscription while the website says that i can use recuetime lite with syncing on other devices including android. it also said that 'some' feature may be limited which implies that i could continue without renewing. but the thing is i never had a subscription in the first place so this all is a SCAM

What’s new

This release fixes a build error in the prior that removed permission
registrations used by the app for reporting and app blocking and restores the
features of the previous release with the 2 factor fix from last.
