FAQ

Short answers to the questions you’ll ask before switching tools.

Who is Indie Hours for? +

Indie Hours is built for freelancers and indie builders who need a simple way to manage tasks, track work sessions, and produce clean exports for clients.

How does time tracking work? +

Start a timer from the app header by selecting a task, or start it directly from a task drawer. Every session is saved to your history, where you can edit or add past sessions if you forgot to track in real time.

Can I mark work as billable and set an hourly rate? +

Yes. Projects can use hourly billing, and each work session can be marked billable (or not). Billable sessions include an hourly rate so your exports reflect real client work.

Can I export work sessions for clients? +

Yes. Filter your work sessions however you need, then export to PDF or XLSX. You can also choose to group sessions by task for clearer client updates.

What happens when I archive a project? +

Archiving hides the project and its related data across the app, so you can keep your workspace clean without deleting everything.Archiving hides the project and its related data across the app, so you can keep your workspace clean without deleting everything.
