<dt>Who uses Traqq?</dt>
<dd>
Traqq is a time tracking tool made for easy team monitoring. Company owners, team managers, HR departments and freelancers working locally or remotely, with any number of people on the team, can use Traqq. The app will use automated methods, such as activity tracking, app and website tracking to provide users with an insight into the teams&rsquo; productivity and performance.
</dd>
<dt>How does Traqq work?</dt>
<dd>
Traqq works via a desktop app, which users can <a href="/support/desktop-app/downloading-the-traqq-desktop-app/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> and <a href="/support/desktop-app/installing-the-traqq-desktop-app-mac-win" target="_blank" rel="noopener">install</a> after sign-up. Once the tracker is activated, the app tracks your <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/timelines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">active hours</a>, as well as the <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/apps-and-websites/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">applications</a> you run and websites you visit.
</dd>
<dt>Does Traqq have a browser extension or a web app?</dt>
<dd>
Nope. Traqq uses a desktop app to track user activity, including <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/apps-and-websites/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">apps &amp; websites</a>.
</dd>
<dt>How do I book a demo with Traqq?</dt>
<dd>
You can book a free Traqq demo session via our <a href="//traqq.com/demo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&rsquo;Demo Offer&rsquo;</a> page.
</dd>
<dt>Does Traqq work offline or with no internet access?</dt>
<dd>
Yes! Traqq is not internet-dependent. Your <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/timelines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">activity</a>, <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/apps-and-websites/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">apps and website</a> use will be accurately tracked and stored on your computer. The data gets synchronized with your online Traqq account once you are back online.
</dd>
<dt>Is Traqq a productivity tool?</dt>
<dd>
Yes! Traqq gives users an insight into their productivity by measuring their activity levels throughout the hours they&rsquo;ve worked. Traqq also shows the amount of time the users have spent on different <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/apps-and-websites/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">apps and websites</a>. You can use this information to analyze your productivity throughout the day, pinpoint distractions and make changes to ensure better efficiency.
</dd>
<dt>How do I send feedback to Traqq?</dt>
<dd>
There are two ways you can submit your feedback to us:
1 - You can send us feedback from the desktop app. Simply click on the tracker, and select the &lsquo;Support&rsquo; menu option.
&nbsp;
<img src="/upload/editor/2023-11-15_15:42:17_Step 11.png" alt="">
 2 - You can send us feedback via email at <a href="mailto:support@traqq.com">support@traqq.com</a>
</dd>
<dt>How can I send my Traqq logs to support?</dt>
<dd>
You can send us feedback from the desktop app. Simply click on the tracker, and select the &lsquo;Support&rsquo; menu option. Logs are collected and sent automatically when you hit Send. You can also describe the issue in more detail using the Comment field, which will help us work on a solution.
</dd>
<dt>Does Traqq have a stealth/silent mode?</dt>
<dd>
No, Traqq offers no such option. Our software is installed openly and has no stealth mode. We have created software that is meant to track employee work time, help improve their productivity and self-discipline, but not to spy on them.
</dd>
<dt>What is ethical tracking?</dt>
<dd>
We track the users&rsquo; activity, but never spy on them. Ethical tracking is built on the principles of:
-&nbsp;Fairness between the employee and the employer, where employees have full control over their tracked time. Time can not be deleted by admins or other users &ndash; you can delete only what is yours.
-&nbsp;User consent: you start the timer when you want your time and activity to be tracked, and stop it when you need to use your computer for personal needs.
</dd>
<dt>What's the difference between a task tracker and a time tracker?</dt>
<dd>
Task trackers are specialized project management tools, such as Trello or Asana, that allow users to set up projects and tasks for their teams. While task trackers only monitor task completion, a time tracker is able to track its progress, while also being compatible with tracking activity for the whole day (like Traqq) instead of particular tasks. Lastly, time trackers provide users with insight into the team&rsquo;s performance and productivity.&nbsp;
</dd>
<dt>How can I create invoices?</dt>
<dd>
We are currently working on the invoicing functionality. You will be able to create invoices on Traqq soon.
</dd>
<dt>Can I restore deleted time?</dt>
<dd>
No, your deleted time, along with the attached activity, may not be restored.&nbsp;

Team management

<dl>
<dt>What are roles?</dt>
<dd>
Roles correspond to different access levels users can have to viewing activity or managing accounts. The higher the level, the more rights the user has. Those rights include: viewing pay rates, inviting users or archiving them. Traqq supports four roles: Users, Managers, Admins, Owners.
Users can view/manage their personal activity and accounts only. Managers can view/manage activity and accounts of all users in their assigned team.&nbsp; Admins have access to company settings and can view/manage activity of all users and managers. Owners have global company permissions and full permissions for every user, manager or admin.
</dd>
<dt>What is the Owner role on Traqq?</dt>
<dd>
Owners have global company permissions and full permissions for every user, manager or admin.
</dd>

<dd>
Admins have access to company settings and can view/manage activity of all users and managers.
</dd>
<dt>What&rsquo;s the difference between Admin and Owner?</dt>
<dd>
Admins cannot manage some <a href="/support/managing-organization/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">organization settings</a>, such as deleting the organization&rsquo;s account. They may not be able to view <a href="/support/managing-teams/managing-pay-rates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pay rates</a>, unless the Owner enables this option.
</dd>
<dt>What is the Manager role on Traqq?</dt>
<dd>
Managers can view/manage activity and accounts of all users in their assigned team.
</dd>
<dt>What&rsquo;s the difference between Admin and Manager?</dt>
<dd>
While Managers can only view activity of users in their own teams, Admins have access to activity info for all users in the company. Admins also have access to&nbsp;<a href="/support/managing-organization/">organization settings</a>, while Managers don&rsquo;t.
</dd>
<dt>What do Managers have access to?</dt>
<dd>
Managers can view activity for all users in their assigned teams.
</dd>
<dt>Who selects Managers?</dt>
<dd>
Admins and Owners can assign team managers.
</dd>
<dt>Do teams require managers?</dt>

</dd>
<dt>Can one user manage two teams?</dt>
<dd>
Yes. There are no limits to how many teams a Manager can be assigned to.
</dd>
<dt>Why can&rsquo;t account Owners be team Managers?</dt>

</dd>

Traqq tracks users&rsquo; activity, as well as the apps and websites they use. Under Top <a href="https://app.traqq.com/activity/apps" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Apps &amp; Websites</a> you see the apps and sites that are used the most by users or teams.
</dd>
<dt>How is average activity calculated?</dt>
<dd>
Activity percentage is calculated in 15-minute increments throughout the day. When you review your timeline, you see that each time slot has the corresponding activity percentage listed next to it. Average activity is the average of those 15-minute activity increments calculated for the selected period of time, be it a day, a week, a month or a custom date range.
</dd>
<dt>How is total time calculated?</dt>
<dd>
Total time is the sum of the hours and minutes a user has tracked during a selected period of time.
</dd>
<dt>Why doesn&rsquo;t my team have any data displayed under Time and Activity?</dt>
<dd>
If you can&rsquo;t view a user&rsquo;s Time and Activity, it usually means that the user hasn&rsquo;t installed or executed the app after registering for Traqq.

Dashboard - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

<dl>
<dt>Can Traqq detect activity if I&rsquo;m offline?</dt>
<dd>
If the tracker is on, then yes. Traqq works offline as well as online. It will track your activity. It will be uploaded to your online Traqq timeline once you have a stable internet connection.
</dd>
<dt>Is Traqq tracking my activity accurately?</dt>
<dd>
Yes. Traqq detects keystrokes and mouse movements to track user activity. If you&rsquo;re experiencing discrepancies between your actual activity and what&rsquo;s tracked by the app, you either may not have enabled all of the required tracking options on your computer, or, in rare cases, the tracking may be interfered with by third-party programs, antiviruses or firewalls. You may contact <a href="mailto:support@traqq.com">support@traqq.com</a> to schedule a live troubleshooting session.
</dd>
<dt>Can users increase their activity level by power clicking?</dt>
<dd>
Nope. Traqq is equipped with an anti-cheating algorithm, which detects and nullifies power clicks and redundant mouse movements.
</dd>
<dt>How can I increase my activity level?</dt>
<dd>
Your activity is calculated based on your keystrokes and mouse movements. Having activity on the time slot will result in higher <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/timelines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">activity levels</a> being recorded. However, note that Traqq is equipped with an anti-cheating algorithm, which detects and nullifies power clicks and redundant mouse movements.
If you&rsquo;re experiencing discrepancies between your actual activity and what&rsquo;s tracked by the app, you either may not have enabled all of the required tracking options on your computer, or have a third-party firewall or antivirus interfering with activity detection. You may contact <a href="mailto:support@traqq.com">support@traqq.com</a> to schedule a live troubleshooting session.
</dd>
<dt>Why is Traqq showing my activity as low despite me being very active on my computer?</dt>
<dd>
If you&rsquo;re experiencing discrepancies between your actual activity and what&rsquo;s tracked by the app, you either may not have enabled all of the required tracking options on your computer, or have a third-party firewall or antivirus interfering with activity detection. You may contact <a href="mailto:support@traqq.com">support@traqq.com</a> to schedule a live troubleshooting session.
</dd>
<dt>Why does my timeline have different colors?</dt>
<dd>
The colors on your <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/timesheet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">timeline</a> are meant to mark different activity levels. Green is for high activity, yellow stands for normal activity, and red means low activity or idle time. This is a system of measuring user performance and productivity throughout their working hours.
</dd>
<dt>What do different colors on my timeline mean?</dt>
<dd>
The colors on your <a href="/support/monitoring-teams/timesheet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">timeline</a> are meant to mark different activity levels. Green is for high activity, yellow stands for normal activity, and red means low activity or idle time. This is a system of measuring user performance and productivity throughout their working hours.
</dd>
<dt>What is the threshold for different activity levels?</dt>
<dd>
Idle - 0% Low activity is 1 - 39% Normal activity is 40 - 59%&nbsp; High activity is 60 - 100%
</dd>
<dt>Why am I seeing low activity during video or voice calls?</dt>
<dd>
Traqq records mouse and keyboard activity intensity. Generally, users are less active during conference calls or VOIP meetings, which leads to lower activity levels. Activity levels cannot be the sole criteria for evaluating employee performance. For instance, HR managers tend to have many meetings per day with lower activity levels compared to coders or copywriters.
