You have the possibility to activate e-mail notifications in timr. The following options are available:

1. 'Your timr is still running...' notification

2. timr Newsletter

3. Notification of status changes of requests

4. Specify Email address for invoicing

1. 'Your timr is still running...' Notification

If you sometimes forget to stop timr before leaving the office, you can configure a notification. Simply configure the time at which you're most likely no longer working and if you forget to stop timr in the future you’ll be notified within the same day through this reminder. Thus you can stop your running recording immediately. This enables you to really finish time tracking for your working day right on the same day.

In the timr android app you have in addition icon notifications. You'll find here more information about the notifications in the timr android app.

If you or your employees forget to stop timr before leaving the office, you'll get a 'Your timr is still running...' notification. The default value for the reminder for every user is 6:00 PM. The notification can be configured individually by each user and works for Working and Project time tracking.

2. timr Newsletter

We’re using the timr newsletter to periodically update you about new timr features, training opportunities, App updates, etc. By default, the newsletter is disabled for an employee. In order to update your employees about new features and e.g. allow them to automatically update the Apps by themselves, it is important that your employees also activate the newsletter. Of course the employees can activate the newsletter also individually.
