We just released a new version of Toggl Desktop. It features full offline mode.
That means that you don’t have to have access to Internet to use Toggl Desktop.
There is one prerequisite: the first login has to be done while connected to the Internet. Toggl Desktop has to download your projects and tasks and save them on your hard drive.
After that, you can log in/out, open/close the app, create/delete/modify tasks without an Internet connection. The changes made while being offline will be uploaded to our server when Toggl Desktop detects the presence of a connection. You, as a user, won’t have to do anything.
Currently it is not possible to add clients and projects while being offline.
If your Toggl Desktop is currently running and would like to upgrade, then just close the application and reopen it. It will then give you the possibility to download the new version. Or you can just click here: http://download.toggl.com/toggldesktop/TogglDesktopSetup.exe
Cheers,
Toggl Team
I’m the one that suggested this mod a while back
This is awesome!
I have problems restoring the window after minimizing it to tray (using Vista). But beside that it’s great
I have the same problem?! Vista user…
It seems to be our mishap. We’re working on a fix, it will be posted early this Thursday.
And I have problem with restoring after minimizing, WinXp sp2
The best tracking application.
In case you don’t have a work-around, it appears to be this:
Once minimized:
Click the notify icon.
Right-click the “Toggl Desktop” in the taskbar and “Restore”
Right-click it again and “Move”.
Then press an arrow key.
Then use your mouse to position it, clicking when done.
Other variations on the last two steps work too.
Seems to work for me too! Great.
I have the same bug mentionned above regarding the systray restoring issue.
If it can help, I noticed than when toggl opens up after a no-activity period, the restoration is working. When I stay away from the computer and toggl asks whether I want to keep or remove time counted, the window correctly show up from the systray.
Problem fixed !
You can download the version with the fix here: http://download.toggl.com/toggldesktop/TogglDesktopSetup.exe
Toggl Team apologizes for inconveniences.
Any plans for non-Windows clients in the future?
The new version (1.0.1) doesn’t disappear on me anymore, but now it won’t minimize to the icon-taskbar. It just stays on the toolbar
t-dub: non-Windows users can currently use the Timer Widget to run Toggl without the browser: http://www.toggl.com/en_US/public/timer_widget . We are also working on a new cross-platform widget that will also support offline mode, autopilot etc.
Wes: check if the Toggl Desktop setting “Minimize to system tray” is checked.
To jaanus: Yes, that option is set. I’ve figured out that minimizing it will not send it to the systray (system tray), only by clicking the window’s close button (X) will it minimize to the systray. Could be a bug, could not be, at least I’ve figured it out
Aah, yes. We’ll release a new version with some additional functionality (planned tasks and improved autopilot) in a few weeks. It will be fixed there.
Sounds good Jaanus. Also, just for reference, I’m using windows XP. I think I’ll subscribe to this blog now
This is an outstanding app!
Amazing app! I’m just trying to become more organized and a better time manager, and this is absolutely awesome!
