Track a Mac app
How much time do you spend in Obsidian?
Focus Meter tracks Obsidian automatically, privately, and at the level of detail that actually answers the question.
What the data usually looks like
Obsidian users tend to have bursty sessions: long note-taking stretches during research, near-zero during build weeks.
Why it matters
Watching your Obsidian time rise and fall alongside your focus score is a surprisingly honest mirror of which weeks are “thinking” vs “shipping.”
How Focus Meter tracks Obsidian
Focus Meter detects Obsidian as productive by default. Vault names and file contents are never accessed — only the fact that Obsidian is frontmost.
Default category in Focus Meter: productive. You can change this any time.
Who this is for
Writers, researchers, and builders who take notes seriously.
