DeskTime url fetcher Extension

DeskTime is an application that allows you to keep track of the the time you spend at the computer. The different internet and desktop applications you used are tracked and divided into categories, which let you evaluate productivity while at the computer for yourself.

To accurately track the different websites you use and to divide them into productive, unproductive and neutral, this extension must be installed. The extension allows DeskTime to view and classify each separate website, rather than simply seeing Chrome as a whole. The extension accompanies the DeskTime app, and does not function on its own. You can get the app at http://desktime.com

Luis Felipe de Melo (ID: 0000001e5323bd49) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/03/2020 This extension keeps tracking and capturing URL's in incognito mode even when its not requested to do, its basically a privacy invasion tool. Already reported as abusive.

Денис Ларионов (ID: 0000001246bbe3ba) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/21/2017 Просто не работает , а это очень важно ,dektime постоянно обозначает посещённые ссылки как браузер , не разделяя их. Смысл приложения теряется.

Арсений Степанов (ID: 000000be4a52f9c2) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/06/2016 Сам Desktime годный как продукт. Но постоянно отваливается данное расширение для Chrome. В большинстве случаев не распознает url ресурса и просто пишет все посещенные страницы как "Chrome".
