This didn't even report as an application to the Finder or the Dock. I couldn't even force quit it. It never appeared in Finder's Force Quit window. I'd had Help open for another application when I started TimeTrack, and its Help file immediately opened in front of the app when I started the app, and although TimeTrack's window was emblazoned across my screen, and although I could access it, it would not show up in the menus or anywhere in the Finder, and it was The App That Would Not Die. Never had any app in my long history of Mac usage do anything even close. I had to power down to get rid of it.
Even if I hadn't experienced this bizarre behavior, the categories in the left pane appeared to be "overlapping" each other, so the words were cut off at the bottom of each line, which seems to be rather shoddy. I also find that a program that *defaults* to tracking my musical whims and web browsing and application usage to be not only whimsical but downright invasive when all I want to track is billable hours. Even if these can be "turned off," why they are there in the first place without specific user intention to have them tracked is beyond me.
This may be a fun diversion for people curious about their own habits, but as a serious time-tracking tool I found it unusable and deleted it.

TrackTime is a Status Bar application. Status Bar applications do not appear in the dock (this is standard behaviour). Status Bar applications do have an icon in the Status Bar, if you click the icon you can choose "Quit TrackTime"You can turn off the tracking of music and website very simply using the buttons on the main windows tools bar.
