TimeSnapper

TimeSnapper is a handy little software tool that tracks your PC activity for as long as you want. It does this by taking regular screenshots of your desktop and saving them as image files. If you're ever curious about what you've done in the past, you can easily load all those snapshots in a built-in slideshow player. It's super simple!

Easy to Use for Everyone

This program is designed to be user-friendly, meaning anyone can handle it without needing a tech degree! Just to be clear, it’s not meant for spying on others; that's not what it's built for.

Quick Access and Silent Operation

Once you start it up, TimeSnapper puts an icon in your system tray so you can access it quickly. It runs quietly in the background while recording, so there are no annoying pop-ups or notifications to distract you from what you're doing.

Customize Your Experience

Before you kick off a recording session, you can choose where to save your snapshots and how often to take them (in seconds). You can also set the image resolution and pick file types like PNG, JPG, GIF, WMF, TIFF, BMP, or EMF!

Select What You Want to Capture

TimeSnapper lets you capture everything on your screens: all displays or just the active app. Plus, if you'd like to keep things tidy, you can delete old snapshots automatically or set limits on storage space.

Organized Snapshots

Your screenshots are neatly organized into folders by day. After you're done recording, just load up all those images into its built-in slideshow player! You control the speed of the slideshow and can easily jump between days using a calendar view.

Smooth Performance

The software runs smoothly without slowing down your computer. It doesn’t use much CPU or RAM either! The best part? All those screenshots are taken without anyone noticing.

A Great Tool for Everyone

In short, TimeSnapper is perfect for keeping track of your desktop activity through automatic snapshots. It's got practical settings that suit all kinds of users. However, keep in mind that there's no option right now to export your slides as GIFs or videos.
