1. Getting Started
Welcome to InputTracker! The app is designed to be minimal and friction-free. Here's how to set it up:
Welcome Screen
When you first launch the app, you'll see a brief text explaining the philosophy of "Input Tracking".
Choosing Tags
InputTracker works by categorizing your time into "Blocks". You'll select a few tags to start with, such as:
- Work
- Study
- Fitness
- Leisure
Tip: Don't worry about picking the perfect tags now. You can always add, edit, or remove them later in Settings.
2. Tracking Your Day
The "Today" tab is your main dashboard. It's built for speed.
Start a Block
Tap the large + button, then choose a tag to begin tracking. The timer starts immediately.
End a Block
Tap End Block to stop the current block. A summary screen lets you adjust the duration or add a note before saving.
3. The Timeline
The Timeline shows your tracked blocks so you can review or adjust them.
- View History: See a chronological list of your tracked sessions.
- Edit Blocks: Tap any block to change its duration, tag, or note.
