About Time Tracker

Time Tracker is a Blender extension from PhinDev that maintains a running count of how long you work inside each .blend file. A new session begins each time a file is opened, and reopening the same file adds additional sessions for the day. The add‑on uses a modal operator to provide a stop & go function that can be paused or continued manually, and it detects inactivity based on a user‑defined threshold. All tracked files appear in a timetable that can be sorted and filtered for detailed review. Version 0.2.4 introduced a Reset time option, a settings panel, and an autosave compatibility mode that allows the stop & go function to operate alongside Blender’s autosave. The add‑on requires Blender 4.2 LTS or newer and is distributed under GPL‑v3.0 or later.
