Time tracking
that syncs with Jira
A native desktop app that lives in your menu bar. Track time on Jira issues, sync worklogs both ways, and see your week in a calendar — all without leaving your workflow.
macOS
Windows
Linux
Every worklog synced.
Both ways.
Planim Time doesn't just push worklogs to Jira — it pulls them too. Edit a worklog in the app and hit "Save & Push" to update Jira instantly. Status badges show you exactly where each entry stands.
- Push worklogs to Jira with one click or automatically
- Pull existing worklogs from Jira into the app
- Status badges: IN PROGRESS, PENDING, SYNCED
- Edit time entries and push changes back to Jira
Start tracking

The app sits in your menu bar and is always one click away. See all your Jira issues pulled by JQL filter, organized by status. Hit play on any task to start the timer — the active timer stays visible right in the tray.

Your API keys,
never plaintext
Your Jira API token never touches our servers and is never written to a config file. Planim Time stores it in your operating system's native secure credential store — the same vault your browser uses for saved passwords.
- macOS Keychain on Apple devices
- Windows Credential Manager on Windows
- Secret Service (libsecret / GNOME Keyring / KWallet) on Linux
- Encrypted at rest by the OS, unlocked per user session
A hundred little things that stop being annoying
Every engineer has a list of tiny frictions in their time tracker. Here's the stuff we killed on purpose.
Pinned issues
Issues you live on stay at the top, even if JQL would normally hide them behind a sprint boundary.
Status reordering
Drag In Progress above To Do. Your list reorders to match how you actually work.
Daily report, one copy
One click copies your day grouped by issue, with descriptions, ready to paste into standup.
Dynamic tray icon
The menu-bar icon changes when a timer is running, paused, or idle. Glance and know.
Silent auto-update
New releases drop in quietly with release notes in the app. No App Store, no uninstall-reinstall.
Dark, light, system
Three themes, synced with your OS preference if you want. The calendar stays legible in both.
Import existing worklogs
First launch pulls every worklog you or your team already logged on your Jira issues. No blank slate.
Local SQLite
Every worklog lives on your disk in a plain SQLite file. Nothing is lost if your Jira blips.
Works on a plane
Offline-first. Track on a flight, a train, a basement office — it reconciles with Jira when you land.
Your sprint,
summarised for whoever is asking.
Group your people into teams, pick a week, and every worklog on every issue rolls up into one screen. No Jira admin dance, no shared dashboards, no spreadsheets copied at 6pm on Friday.
Four views, one dataset.
Switch between Person Issue Epic Project in a click. Expand any row to read the actual worklog descriptions — who did what, not just how long.
Missing time, caught early.
We compare every logged hour against expected hours per weekday. Dial the expected to 7.5h or 10h and everything recomputes live — anyone under target shows up on their own line, before the sprint ends.
Estimates kept honest.
Original Jira estimates paired with actuals. Worst overruns first, underruns flagged too. +79% on a story is a conversation, not a surprise.
Two blocks managers actually open: Missing time and Estimate vs Actual.
One tells you which teammates are quietly falling behind. The other tells you which stories are quietly eating the sprint. Together they replace the Monday-morning “how did last week go” email.
You can't leave Jira. We can make logging time into it bearable.
Most Jira time trackers are Cloud plugins. They live inside a browser tab, need an active Jira session, and keep your API token on somebody else's server. Every time you switch tabs to see the timer, Jira loads another ten widgets you didn't ask for. Tempo and Clockwork are built for finance departments; Clockify and Everhour are built for agencies. None of them are built for the engineer who just wants a timer that doesn't lose hours when Jira goes dark for five minutes.
Planim Time is a native desktop app — Rust under the hood, tiny installer, one menu-bar icon, no browser tab. Your Jira API token lives in the OS keychain, same vault your browser uses for saved passwords. Worklogs round-trip through Jira's own API, so nothing gets stuck in a third-party silo. Open a plane-mode laptop, start a timer, land, push — done. That's the whole pitch.
