How to Set Up a Chrome Desktop Shortcut for Quick Time Tracking

Tracking time should be easy and simple to do regularly, but we’ve found that sifting through tons of browser tabs to find clicktime.com can sometimes slow us down. Luckily, Google Chrome has a hidden feature that offers the power of their browser neatly packed into what looks and feels like a desktop app.

Enter the Chrome Desktop Shortcut. If you have Google Chrome, you can have a ClickTime App in a few clicks! What’s happening behind the scenes is simple but ingenious: Chrome makes an app shortcut on your Mac or PC, and anytime you open it, you’ll load that website in its own window. No tabs. No resizing. Easy timesheet access.

Remember though, this shortcut is not actually an app! So otherwise it will behave exactly like our website, logging you out securely after you’ve been inactive and requiring an internet connection to work.
