Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about migrating from Toggl Track to Produchive.

helpDo I have to start a timer in Produchive?

No. Once tracking is on, Produchive records the app in the foreground automatically on macOS and Windows. You can still schedule and edit blocks in the routine calendar.

helpIs Produchive good for billing clients?

Not really. Produchive is designed for personal focus, planning and habit insight rather than invoicing. If hourly client billing is your main need, a team time tracker like Toggl Track is a better fit.

helpWhere does Produchive store my data?

On your own computer. There is no required account, and optional multi-device sync is end-to-end encrypted through a folder you choose.
