Fugit

A private, native macOS menu-bar app for seeing where your time went.

Fugit tracks active-app time locally and turns a day into a clear productivity receipt: focused time, distractions, neutral apps, and a weekly trend. It does not require an account or cloud sync.

Download the latest macOS release

What it does

• tracks the active macOS application in short intervals;
• groups activity into productive, distracting, and neutral categories;
• shows a readable daily receipt and weekly trend;
• stores data locally, without an account or server sync;
• provides a lightweight menu-bar experience instead of another full-screen dashboard.

Install

1. Open Releases.
2. Download Fugit.dmg or Fugit.zip for your Mac.
3. Move Fugit.app to Applications and grant the requested Accessibility / System Events permissions on first launch.

Terminal install (optional)

The installer downloads the ZIP from the latest GitHub Release, verifies the app bundle signature, installs it into ~/Applications, and leaves existing Fugit data untouched.

curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jann5/fugit/main/scripts/install-fugit-macos.sh
bash install-fugit-macos.sh
