Everything your team needs on the move

The most important MetronHR features are as quick to reach in the app as they are at the desk.

  1. Time tracking

    Clock in with the timer, one tap is enough

    Start, pause and stop working time straight from the phone. Every hour lands with the right client, the right project and the right service by itself.

    • A live timer with start, pause and stop
    • Assigned to client, project and service
    • Hours can also be entered by hand afterwards
    • Take the last entries as a template

At the computer

The timer in the menu bar

If you work at a desk, you no longer need to open MetronHR in the browser first. The desktop app for Mac and Windows sits in the menu bar or the taskbar and shows the running time. One click starts, pauses or stops it.

  • Mini bar with the running time and job, switched with one click
  • A reminder when nothing is recorded in the morning or the timer is still running in the evening
  • After a screen lock or sleep, the app asks whether the time away was a break
  • Keyboard shortcuts for the timer and the window, starts with the computer
  • Entries, absences and hours balance as in the phone app, with the same login
