Release date: April 2, 2026
Version: 2.1.0
primaTime 2.1 is the biggest update we've ever released — a complete rework of how the app looks, feels, and works.
A lot of these changes came directly from your feedback. We redesigned the sidebar, unified the main work area, rebuilt the stopwatch, overhauled permissions, and standardized reports — all to give you a faster, cleaner, and more predictable experience.
1. App Layout Redesign
The entire app layout has been reworked — from the sidebar to the main content area. Everything is more consistent, faster to navigate, and adapts to how you actually work.
🗂️ Sidebar
The sidebar got a full rework — it's faster, cleaner, and remembers how you like it.
📌 Pin & Unpin
Pin the sidebar to keep it open, or unpin it to tuck it away and give yourself more workspace.
Why you'll love it:
You control how much screen space you need — toggle the sidebar in one click depending on what you're doing.
Where to find it:
Sidebar → Pin/Unpin icon (top)
💾 Persistent State
Collapse or expand any group in the sidebar and it stays that way next time you log in. No more re-opening the same folders every morning.
Why you'll love it:
Your sidebar layout is remembered automatically — it always looks exactly how you left it.
⚙️ Consolidated Settings
All module settings (time tracking, reports, and more) now live under one Settings group. No more jumping between different places to configure things.
Why you'll love it:
One place for everything — find and change any setting quickly without guessing where it lives.
Where to find it:
Sidebar → Settings
🔍 Sidebar Search
Search through the entire navigation bar directly from the sidebar. Type a keyword and instantly find the module, page, or setting you need.
Why you'll love it: No more clicking through menus — just type and go. It's the fastest way to get anywhere in primaTime.
Where to find it: Sidebar → Search field (top)
🔀 Naming & Location Changes
We've renamed and reorganized several things to make the app more intuitive:
Organization → Workspace — Same functionality, just a name that makes more sense. It's where your whole team works — now it's called that.
Users → Teammates — The people in your workspace are now called Teammates. Same functionality, clearer name.
Roles — Roles used to be inside Users. Now they have their own dedicated page — easier to find and manage.
Table → Time Entries — The old "Table" view is now called Time Entries, which better describes what it actually shows.
Billing → Additional Items — Now its own standalone group in the sidebar. Easier to find, easier to manage.
🖥️ Main Work Area
The main work area is more consistent and easier to navigate — regardless of which module you're in.
🧭 Breadcrumbs
You always know where you are. Click any parent in the breadcrumb trail to jump straight back.
Why you'll love it:
Navigate complex hierarchies without getting lost — one click takes you exactly where you need to go.
Where to find it:
Top of any detail page
🔽 Entity Dropdown
Click the dropdown on any entity name to see all others of the same type. Jump between projects, clients, or tasks without going back to the overview.
Why you'll love it:
Switch between related items instantly — no extra clicks, no page reloads.
Where to find it:
Any entity detail → Click the entity name
⋯ Three-Dot Menu Relocated
The action menu used to be tucked away on the far right. Now it sits right next to the entity title — copy link, duplicate, save as template, archive, or move to trash. All right there.
Why you'll love it:
Actions are always visible and within reach — no more hunting for the menu.
Where to find it:
Any entity detail → Next to the title
📑 Sub-View Tabs
Each entity now has its own set of tabs (e.g., Details, Board, Members, Tasks, Tasks Workflow for projects). Navigate everything without leaving the page.
Why you'll love it:
All the information about an entity is organized in one place — switch views with a single click.
Where to find it:
Any entity detail → Tab bar
🎯 Repositioned Action Button & Filters
The main action button (e.g., + Task) is now on the left, filters on the right. Create on the left, refine on the right — it just flows better.
Why you'll love it:
The layout matches how you actually work: create first, then filter and review.
Where to find it:
Any list or table view
2. Stopwatch
The stopwatch was already in 2.0, but it was limited. In 2.1, it actually works the way you'd expect.
⏸️ Pause & Resume
Pause your timer and pick up exactly where you left off. No more losing time when you step away.
Why you'll love it:
Take a break, handle an interruption, and come back without missing a second.
Where to find it:
Stopwatch → Pause / Resume button
🔄 Restart
Save the current time entry and start a fresh stopwatch immediately. Switch between activities without losing a second.
Why you'll love it:
Moving between tasks is seamless — one click saves your current work and starts the next timer.
Where to find it:
Stopwatch → Restart button
💡 Smart Save
If your stopwatch already has a client, project, or task assigned, it saves instantly — no extra modal, no extra clicks.
Why you'll love it:
Saving is instant when everything is already set up. Less friction, more tracking.
Where to find it:
Stopwatch → Save
⚠️ Unassigned Warning
If nothing is assigned when you try to save, you'll see a warning right away so you can fix it before you forget.
Why you'll love it:
No more orphaned time entries — you'll always know when something needs to be assigned before saving.
Where to find it:
Stopwatch → Save (when unassigned)
3. Reports
Reports across the app now share a unified layout with smarter defaults — so they're useful from the moment you open them.
📊 Unified Report Tables
All reports now share the actively selected date across every report type. Each report comes with a carefully chosen default column setup and sorting — so you see the most relevant data first, every time.
Default columns by report type:
Time Records: Start, User, Project, Task, Client, Labels, Duration (h), Billable ratio (%), Hourly rate, To invoice — sorted by Start date (descending)
Users: User, Duration (h), Billable ratio (%), Revenue, Profit — sorted by Duration descending
Projects: Name, Client, Status, Duration (h), Billable ratio (%), Revenue, Profit — sorted by Duration descending
Clients: Name, Duration (h), Billable ratio (%), Revenue, Profit — sorted by Duration descending
Tasks: Name, Project, Status, Duration (h), Billable ratio (%), Revenue, Profit — sorted by Duration descending
Why you'll love it:
Reports are immediately useful without manual configuration. The defaults answer your most common questions at a glance — and you can still customize everything.
Where to find it:
Any report section
4. Permissions
Permissions have been completely reworked to give you precise control over who can see and do what — at every level.
🔐 Time Records Permissions
A new, flexible permission model for time records that works across four scopes: User (whole app access), Team, Project, and Client.
Two permission levels:
Time Records Basic — Grants read access to other users' time records within the given scope. Data is visible across all reports and (at Global/Team level) the users calendar.
Time Records Ultimate — Grants full access to read, create, update, and delete other users' time records within the given scope.
How scopes work:
Users (global): See or manage all time records in the organization
Team: See or manage time records of all members in a specific team
Project: See or manage time records of all members in a specific project
Client: See or manage time records of all users working on a specific client
By default, users can only create and update their own time records. These permissions let you extend visibility and control exactly where it's needed.
Why you'll love it:
Fine-grained control means managers see what they need, team leads manage their teams, and project owners stay on top of their projects — without giving everyone access to everything.
Where to find it:
Settings → Roles → Users roles
🛡️ Project Permission Enhancements
Project detail permissions now have four clear tiers, so you can control exactly what each user can see and edit.
Permission tiers:
None (default): Can view basic details (name, client, status, time budget) but cannot make changes. Price budget is hidden.
Basic: Can view and edit project details. Price budget is still hidden.
Advanced: Can view and edit details, and can also see the price budget. However, the price budget itself cannot be edited.
Ultimate: Can view and edit all project details, including the price budget. No restrictions.
Why you'll love it:
You decide who sees financials and who doesn't — perfect for separating team members, project managers, and admins with the right level of access.
Where to find it:
Settings → Roles → Project roles
5. Billing & Finance
📝 Time record Draft billed state
Invoices and billing reports now support a Draft state, giving you a clear workflow before finalizing documents.
What's new:
A new "Draft" billing state for both time records and billing items
Filter by Draft Invoiced? (Yes/No) across time records and billing items
Draft status is visually indicated in detail views and tables — with a link to the draft invoice or billing report
Why you'll love it:
Review before you commit. Draft invoices let you prepare, double-check, and finalize billing on your own terms — no accidental invoicing.
Where to find it:
Finance → Invoices / Billing Reports
💳 Monthly & Yearly Licenses Simultaneously
You can now run both monthly and yearly subscriptions at the same time — giving you full flexibility in how you manage your plan.
Why you'll love it:
No more being locked into one billing cycle. Mix and match subscriptions to fit your team's needs and budget.
Where to find it:
Workspace Settings → Subscription
