We use Workflowmax for this job and many of us dislike it because it's frustrating to enter time. Based on the images on the https://www.timepike.com/#keyfeatures page it looks like this follows a similar pattern - which is a shame.

I like the idea of more of a 'painting' style where I colour in different blocks of the week for different projects.

Thanks for your feedback! So you mean that you would rather use mouse to do (by painting) instead of keyboard to put those numbers, or you mean that you would be able to "paint" how much you worked on projects at the end of the week? Somehow problematic could be to set minutes.

I only need it to be to the nearest 15 mins really - perhaps this is uncommon.

Yeah, it'd be good to just drag over sections to colour them in for a certain project. Entering the numbers is a pain and the reason I dislike wfm.

I see, thanks for that, it is interesting idea. If I introduced this feature into TimePike, should I inform you about it?

Cool - you could do but it's not my decision to use WFM :(

You need would need to provide your contact info then - email?

Try out https://wakatime.com which automates entering the time.

The issue with this is that I have time to bill for afk too.
