Kimai Time-Tracker

Happy to support nonprofit teams! One of them is Pulse of Europe e.V., a pro-European citizens' movement.

💬 "What particularly impresses us about Kimai is its simple and intuitive user experience. Working hours can be recorded quickly and easily, while projects and tasks can be clearly categorized and flexibly filtered. This allows us to maintain an overview across multiple teams, projects, and responsibilities", - shared Hendrick Michel.

Our contributor just released KDE Plasmoid - an open-source time tracking widget for your KDE Plasma desktop. It lives right there on your screen, so you can start and stop your time tracker without jumping between tabs or apps.

Big thanks to Daniele Scasciafratte, an Open Source advocate and developer, who made this widget happen 🙌

🇨🇭 A small business owner from Switzerland told us something we hear all the time: "I'm great at tracking my hours, but I'm terrible at turning them into invoices."

She uses bexio as her accounting solution and Kimai for time tracking. Every month, reconciling the two steals half of her day.

KlockShift - a new integration - connects Kimai directly to bexio, transforming your time data into invoices automatically.

We’ve upgraded the monitoring infrastructure for Kimai Cloud with Uptime Kuma.

💬 "A huge congratulations to Kimai! It's such a great, really well-thought-out tool. Everything you could wish for in time tracking, presented in a modern design and style."

⚠️ Important update for self-hosters: Kimai now requires PHP 8.2 as the minimum version.

We’re officially raising the minimum PHP version for Kimai, our open-source time-tracking app, to 8.2, for better security, better performance, and fewer headaches.

🚀 Our tip: upgrade straight to PHP 8.5. The 8.2 requirement is just an intermediate step, and we’ll be raising the minimum to 8.5 sooner rather than later — so you can avoid a double upgrade.
