Time tracking vs. calendar analytics: how Calenytics categorizes your day
Calendar analytics differs from manual time tracking: learn how Calenytics categorizes your day from events you already schedule on iOS.
Calenytics Team
Manual timers capture clicks; calendars capture commitments. Calenytics focuses on the latter so you spend less time logging.
Why calendars beat timers for some people
If you already live in Apple Calendar, your schedule is the log. Analytics should surface patterns, not add another habit of pressing start/stop.
How categorization works
- Calendars and tags become the backbone for charts.
- Rules group similar titles when helpful.
- Goals roll up categories into targets you choose.
When to still use timers
Deep freelance billing or sub-minute tasks may need timers. Pair them with calendar blocks for the big picture.
