About this tool

A Simple Daily Work Log — No Signup, 60-Day History, Standup in One Click

Runs in your browser
No install or signup
Free forever

The Daily Focus Log is a browser-based work log for developers, freelancers, and anyone who wants a lightweight record of what they worked on each day. No signup, no account, no uploads — all data stays in your browser.

Every day has two parts. The focus task list is where you put what you intend to do — check tasks off as you complete them. The timestamped work log is where you record what you actually did throughout the day — each entry is stamped with the time automatically. At day end, click Copy Summary to get a clean text block ready to paste into Slack, a standup bot, GitHub, or a timesheet.

60-day rolling history. The tool keeps the last 60 days of data and automatically removes anything older when you open the app. The monthly calendar grays out dates beyond the 60-day window and the back arrow stops at the oldest available month — so the calendar always shows what is actually accessible. Export a ZIP backup if you need to archive older records permanently.

Day streak tracking. The streak counter shows how many consecutive days you used the tool. Your best streak is recorded separately. Even one checked task or one log entry keeps the streak alive.

Weekly and monthly progress. The weekly bar chart shows tasks done plus log entries for the last seven days. The monthly calendar shows activity intensity per day — click any day to review and edit that day's tasks and entries.

50 levels of undo/redo. Press Ctrl+Z to undo any change — adding tasks, checking them off, adding log entries, clearing data. Ctrl+Y to redo. Undo/Redo buttons are visible in the header.

Search across all days. Search by keyword across the current day or the full 60-day history. Results from other days show the originating date.

Export and import backups. Click the ··· menu and Export to download a ZIP of all your data. For larger exports the ZIP is split into multiple files with a shared manifest. Import selects all files at once and reassembles everything.

Use the Daily Focus Log alongside the Mini Kanban for full daily workflow coverage — kanban for project-level task tracking, focus log for day-by-day recording and standup generation. The Freelance Dashboard combines both tools in a single view.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Daily Focus Log has two sections per day: a focus task list and a timestamped work log. Add tasks to the focus list at the start of your day and check them off as you complete them. Use the log area throughout the day to record what you actually did — each entry gets a timestamp automatically. At the end of the day, click Copy Summary to get a formatted text block ready to paste into Slack, a standup bot, or a timesheet.

The Daily Focus Log keeps 60 days of data. Entries older than 60 days are automatically removed when you open the tool. The monthly calendar grays out dates beyond the 60-day window and the left navigation arrow stops at the oldest available month. Export a ZIP backup regularly if you need to archive older data.

Yes. Click Copy Summary in the "What I Did Today" section header. This copies a formatted text block: your focus tasks with done/not-done status and every log entry with timestamps. Paste it into Slack, Teams, GitHub, or your standup bot. The output is clean plain text that reads naturally in any context.

The streak counter tracks consecutive days where you completed at least one task or added at least one log entry. The streak increments each day you use the tool and resets if you miss a day. Your best streak is saved separately and shown alongside the current streak.

Yes. The tool supports up to 50 levels of undo and redo. Press Ctrl+Z (Cmd+Z on Mac) to undo adding or deleting tasks, checking tasks off, adding or removing log entries, or clearing data. Press Ctrl+Y (Cmd+Shift+Z) to redo. Undo/Redo buttons are visible in the header. History is held in memory and cleared on page close.

Yes. The search bar has a scope selector — choose "This day" to search only the selected day, or "All days" to search across the full 60-day history. Results from other days show their originating date.

Click the ··· button in the header, then Export to download a ZIP archive of all your log data. For larger exports the ZIP is split automatically with a shared manifest. To restore, click Import and select all the ZIP files — the tool reassembles everything.

Yes. All data is stored in your browser's IndexedDB. Nothing is uploaded to any server. No account or login required. Clearing site data for fwdtools.com deletes your log — export a backup periodically.

Dates older than 60 days are grayed out with strikethrough because the data retention limit is 60 days. Any data from before that window has been auto-removed. The back arrow in the calendar navigation stops at the month containing the oldest available date (60 days ago).

Yes. Log each piece of billable work as you finish it. At day end, Copy Summary gives a timestamped list of everything done. Export ZIP at month-end for a permanent archive of billable work.
