Microsoft has a version of Excel you can use for free from your phone, and save the file to OneDrive. Then access it on your desktop when you get home?
Or, not for free, but pretty darn powerful: Memento database has a $15 version that can be synced to Google sheets. It takes a bit of work to get everything replicated in sheets to begin with, but can do almost whatever you want. You said you don't have time for that, though.

Excel is not the way...
I'm using it right now (the PC version) and it is a pita to handle all the projects...
I'll take a look at Memento, but I would like to get something that works out of the box and dedicated to time tracking...
Thank you for posting!

Maybe also check out Free and trial versions of Anuko products? I've never used it, but it seems to be free, and appears to let you put their code on your servers and use your MySQL DB, so you could set up something else for reporting if you wished. Open sourced, or so it says.

Saw this one days ago... seems interesting and super close to what I'm after...

I used Anuko for years, both the hosted and on prem versions, and found it to do exactly what a consulting organization needs. Super easy to use and can be modified to meet your needs.

I'm planning to check it...
It is really nice as it can be hosted in my NAS and modified at will...

I was searching more an answer like... I'm using this one and I like it because... than a google search with plenty of results...
I've seen a lot of reviews and I would trust more people from ![Green Alien | [Alien]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/alien.gif) than any other place in the whole Internet...
Thanks for posting though.

Well, I would recommend writing your own app to do that. I'd do it but then there's the whole issue of knowing how much of that time should be billable. How much was productive or contributed to productivity, etc.

I've thought doing it too, even I could make a small database and host it in my NAS and then access it using a program like Heidi SQL...
But, even this is probably the best way to do it... I'm really with no time to do projects for me now...
Thanks for posting though!

Google Docs spreadsheet?
Use your computer to set it up, but applying updates on a phone is not a problem for things like hours worked on which projects/customers.

That would be very close to what I'm doing now... using Excel and my own "cloud"/NAS.
But it is a valid option... Thanks!

I don't think it gives you the sql part but what you are after (reporting) is included already.
I have been using it for many years. I like it. It is easy to use. But one issue I had (prior version) was something you specifically asked for - the mobile app - it didn't work well on ios. That may have changed/improved.

I wonder... is it a superior race?

I mulled about and buried the concept. Any other TOD thread's cocoon up in your psyche?

1. debugging in Visual Studio is pathetic -- it requires this alpha release of their test tool. Really?
2. Instead of hitting the endpoint at localhost:5050, you have to create the JSON that simulates the input as it comes in to the lambda function.
3. When using the alpha test tool (I can see why they call it "alpha") your function handler has to be defined with a JObject parameter. Can't use Stream, even though that works just great otherwise.
4. Apparently it has no clue how to load dependent assemblies. Which means any additional project references fail with an "assembly not found" error.
5. So to do any testing, I end up having to publish the function because that's the only way to "debug" it -- with try-catch handlers and "contract" tests to figure out what's wrong.
I can write a better test tool in a day, what moron do they have working on this. Hmmm. Good 4th of July project.  Maybe someone's already done this? Don't want to re-invent the wheel, haha, though many wheels I find are rather flat, broken, and lying in a rut covered in mud.
Microsoft has Amazon beat hands down on this stuff.
And why doesn't the "Normal" view for CP lounge messages stick? It's stuck in "Open All" right now.
