Toggl has applications for iOS and the Android platform, as well as desktop (I would avoid their desktop application) and the standard web application.

You then set up your projects (we’ll go through exactly what projects you need in detail below): Found under “Settings” in the top-right. You open an account: Go to Sign up for an account.

There is a precept that what you can measure, you can improve. “If you can not measure it, you can not improve it.” – Lord Kelvin
