TimeSnapper Pro

They say that to error is human. Know what else is human – to forget. To my mind, it is a lot better to make a mistake, realize it, and take measures to fix it – compared to doing something, then completely forgetting about it. If you have problems remembering what you did on your computer, then you need help.

Help from a specialized piece of software that is. Such a specialized piece of software is TimeSnapper Professional, an application that weighs in at about 1.7MB – meaning the download, especially on a high speed internet connection, will complete in a blink. Speaking of things that will happen in a blink, the installation process will go just as fast – all you have to do is follow the instructions in the setup wizard. Almost any Windows version is supported for running the program. That includes Windows XP, 2000, Vista and 7. The system requirements are not out of the ordinary.

What does TimeSnapper Professional do once it is installed on your system? The application is an automatic screenshot journal, so it will take snapshots of your desktop at specific intervals of time. For example, it will take snapshots every few seconds as you go about your day – it can do this all week long. At the end of the week, or at the end of the day, you can play back all the screenshots, like you would with a movie.

The functionality provided by TimeSnapper Professional is great on many levels. Thus, the software can quickly and easily remind you precisely what you did throughout the day or the week. Besides that, it is useful if you get paid by the hour as it helps you calculate the amount of time you spend working on a specific task. That means that the software can track how much time you spend in a specific application.

TimeSnapper Professional lets you assign productivity scores to the apps you work with. Just tell TimeSnapper Professional which applications make you productive and it will run reports that show you how productive you are. The interface facilitates the use of program's features, as it includes some large graphical buttons for accessing functions. The level of productivity can be displayed in a graphical mode and also as text.
