100% private, native macOS screen time & focus tracker.
TimeLens is a native, privacy-first macOS menu-bar utility designed for deep productivity analytics, screen time tracking, and focus sessions. Core Differentiator — 100% Local Privacy: All activity data is processed and stored strictly on the user's Mac in clean JSON/JSONLines format (/Library/Application Support/TimeLens/). Zero cloud dependencies, zero tracking, and no external servers. Key Features: • Accurate Activity Tracking: Tracks active windows via AppKit (NSWorkspace) with smart idle detection. Instantly pauses tracking on lock screen (loginwindow), display sleep, or user switching. • Smart Categorization & Live Status: Automatically categorizes apps (Development, Browsing, Entertainment, etc.) and generates a human-readable activity phrase (e.g., "Coding in Xcode"). • Private Web Tracking: Logs browsing time across Safari, Chrome, Brave, and Edge at the root domain level only. • Music Analytics: Native AppleScript integration for Apple Music, Spotify, and active YouTube Music tabs with top artist, genre, and album breakdowns. • Deep Work & Gamification: Focus sessions with Pomodoro timers, category limits with notifications, Duolingo-style streak system with freeze shields, and CSV data export. • Polished SwiftUI UI: Floating menu-bar panel featuring native macOS translucent materials, custom accent colors, and light/dark theme support. Monetization & Sale Overview: The codebase includes a pre-built Pro Paywall UI and entitlement controller supporting monthly subscription ($4.99/mo) and lifetime access ($19.99). Built with pure Swift/SwiftUI and compiled via Command Line Tools. The buyer receives the complete modular source code, build scripts (buildapp.sh), UI assets, and full intellectual property (IP) rights.
Next step: <p>1. Distribution & Launch: Connect a payment gateway (Lemon Squeezy, Paddle, or Mac App Store StoreKit) to activate the already coded Pro paywall, and launch on Product Hunt, Hacker News, and macOS subreddits (r/macapps).</p><p>2. Ecosystem Expansion: Submit the app to Setapp to tap into their ready-made pool of paying macOS subscribers for steady monthly recurring revenue.</p><p>3. Feature Additions: Add optional end-to-end encrypted iCloud synchronization across multiple Macs and an iOS/iPadOS companion widget.</p><p>4. B2B / Team Licensing: Package the tracker for remote-first teams or digital agencies that need ethical, local-first productivity insights without intrusive employee surveillance.</p>
