I'm trying to keep a log of the time that I spend doing specific tasks throughout the day. Currently, the way that I am doing this is by constantly running a stopwatch and filling out a spreadsheet for the day — when a task is completed, I lap the stopwatch and add the task and the time spent on that task in a row in the spreadsheet. It does the job, but it is very tedious. Does anyone have a recommendation for an app that can do this for me? I would like it to:

Log the time constantly (when a task is completed, immedately start a new task)
Time a task
Allow naming of tasks
(optional) Allow categorizing of tasks with tags
(optional) Show graphics for how time is spent each day, and statistics on how much time is spent
The ability to export the data (e.g. CSV)

It would probably be the most convenient for this to be an Android app, but I am also open to suggestions for a Desktop (Linux) app.

I think you are looking for Simple Time Tracker: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.razeeman.util.simpletimetracker/

definitely recommend. I've been using it for a year and a half now and it's one of my most favorite apps on my phone.

I've been using this for the past day, and it is a great app! It seems to cover exactly what I'm looking for, and it's a pretty well designed app. Thank you for the recommendation!

Np, I'm glad my random app testing has paid off. Has a nice UI as well which is rare in FOSS.
