Track a Mac app
How much time do you spend in VS Code?
Focus Meter tracks VS Code automatically, privately, and at the level of detail that actually answers the question.
What the data usually looks like
For most developers, VS Code hours are the clearest measurable signal of “actually shipping.”
Why it matters
Developers often feel unproductive after a busy-looking day. Looking at VS Code time versus Slack/browser time is the fastest way to see whether the feeling was real.
How Focus Meter tracks VS Code
Focus Meter detects VS Code as productive by default and tracks it at the app level (it doesn’t attempt to read your specific file). Combine this with GitHub URL tracking for a solid “wrote code” signal.
Default category in Focus Meter: productive. You can change this any time.
Who this is for
Software engineers who want a hard number on their actual coding hours.
