Track a Mac app

How much time do you spend in Google Chrome?

Focus Meter tracks Google Chrome automatically, privately, and at the level of detail that actually answers the question.

What the data usually looks like

Chrome is the single biggest tracking blind spot for most Mac users. Screen Time shows “Chrome: 5 hours” without any website detail — which is useless.

Why it matters

The answer to “where did my day go?” is almost always hiding inside Chrome. Drilling into active URLs turns an opaque 5-hour block into a readable timeline: GitHub, Google Docs, Reddit, YouTube, and so on.

How Focus Meter tracks Google Chrome

Focus Meter reads the active tab’s URL from Chrome via macOS Automation (no extension required) and categorizes each domain separately. You can mark docs.google.com as productive and reddit.com as distracting and each counts independently.

Default category in Focus Meter: neutral. You can change this any time.

Who this is for

Anyone who uses Chrome as their primary browser on Mac. Especially useful for people using Chrome Profiles — Focus Meter sees the URL, not the profile.
