Keeping accurate records of how we spend our time shouldn’t be difficult, but for many professionals, it still is. Whether you’re a freelancer juggling multiple clients, a consultant visiting different sites, or a remote employee managing flexible hours, one thing is certain: manual time tracking doesn’t work very well.

We all know the scenario: you finish a busy day, sit down to log your hours, and realize you can’t quite remember when you started, when you left, or how much time was actually billable. Most people end up guessing—and when you guess, you usually underestimate. Over time, that guesswork adds up to lost income, inaccurate reports, and unnecessary stress.

The problem isn’t a lack of effort; it’s that most time-tracking tools still rely on people remembering to track time manually.

Most time tracking tools ask too much of us. You have to start and stop timers, label sessions, categorize entries, and remember to do it all consistently. That’s a lot to ask—especially for people whose real work requires focus, creativity, and problem-solving.

Then there’s the privacy issue. Many apps automatically upload your location and activity data to cloud servers. While this makes syncing convenient, it also means your data leaves your control. Even when companies promise strong security, users are still trusting that their data won’t be sold, breached, or misused.

For many professionals, that’s not a comfortable trade-off.

Your location data says a lot about you—where you work, where you live, when you travel. Once that data is stored in the cloud, it can be exposed to risks beyond your control, from data breaches to third-party access.

That’s why privacy isn’t just a feature—it’s a foundation. A time-tracking solution that stores all data locally gives users complete control. No uploads. No external servers. No surveillance. Your information remains yours—always.

Time tracking should be both effortless and respectful of privacy. That’s the idea behind WhereWas, our automatic, local-only time tracker.

Instead of relying on manual timers, WhereWas uses intelligent geofence detection to log when you arrive at and leave specific locations. Spend more than ten minutes at a place, and it automatically records your visit. Leave, and it stops tracking. It remembers—so you don’t have to.

And because all data stays on your device, your information never leaves your phone. There’s no account to create, no cloud sync, and no risk of your data being stored elsewhere.

Who Benefits Most:

• Freelancers and contractors who want precise, verifiable time records.
• Remote employees who need reliable, location-based attendance logs.
• Students tracking study hours or campus time.
• Anyone curious about how their time is truly spent.

Automation eliminates the biggest source of human error: forgetfulness. With WhereWas, tracking happens passively and accurately in the background. That means no more lost hours, incomplete logs, or awkward time estimates.

And with a privacy-first architecture, users can enjoy the convenience of automation without giving up control over their data.

WhereWas is available now on the Google Play Store. Setup takes minutes—install, grant location access, and let it do the rest.
