It&rsquo;s a polygon-shaped piece of plastic and electronics that connects to my iPhone.

No need to switch apps on your iPhone or find the right window on your Mac. With that being said, I do sometimes like seeing a running counter and often work with my iPhone in a Qi dock, displaying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hourstimetracking.com\/\">Hours<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>With the current summer sale, Timeular costs $53 for the hardware and basic features, $9\/month for advanced features, or $299 for &ldquo;lifetime&rdquo; tracking with no subscription.
