TimeTurtle: Clutter-free time tracking based on an interactive timeline

Hi! This is Almar from The Netherlands. TimeTurtle is my first product, and I’m excited to launch it here today! Working as a freelancer, I've never been happy with existing time trackers. I found they often had too many features, and therefore failed to do the one thing well. I always felt that the UX missed the notion of time being linear. Last year I decided to have a serious go myself, using my experience with visualization and user interaction to create something unique. Well, hopefully unique enough to stand out among the many other time trackers 😊 Any feedback, advice or comments are much appreciated! 🙏 Thanks!

I think there is a room for improvement in its design. It could be refined more.

Hi @mikedane7, thanks for trying out and giving feedback! Yeah, design is not my strong suit 🙂 Do you have some specifics that I can work on?

I like the idea of it, it's easy to use, I wish the icons were improved to look a little more modern or make it more purposefully stylized. I think you should move the date along the vertical column a little more to the left as it feels too close to the schedule. It feels like it will almost touch or will overlap and could become hard to read. I don't think you really need that info though and keeping it in the top seems fine. I wish you had a few more labels or maybe hover states. What does clicking on my initials do? Does it just refresh? I would have expected account info when clicking on my initials though to be far it doesn't look like a button. I know it's out of scope but a calendar view would be cool. I think you should repeat the background pattern on the colored time block for more visual interest or something, maybe just adding a clock icon pattern or something. If I had more time I'd offer a design mock-up of some small improvements but I'm pretty busy.

Hi @softsound, these are all very valuable suggestions. Thanks for taking the time to write them up! I've noted your points for the next re-design.
