About Motion Clock

Motion Clock is a time‑tracking utility for Adobe Creative Suite applications. It records the amount of time you spend on a project in real‑time while working in After Effects, Premiere Pro, Illustrator or Photoshop (no UXP). The recorded data can be exported with a single click as a CSV file or visualized as a bar chart. An editable timer field lets you adjust the count, and an optional Idle Time Alert can be enabled with a configurable delay. Chameleon Mode automatically matches the panel’s appearance to the host application’s background. An internal archive stores previous records for later review. Version 1.1.8 adds stability improvements and refines the reset‑to‑zero behavior. Compatibility includes After Effects, Illustrator and Premiere Pro releases from 2020 through 2026, and Photoshop from 2020 through 2024.
