Time Markers

The time markers allow users to add 'Notes' to their timeline information of the tasks that they are working on. 

For example, if you use Westlaw there is no useful information that WiseTime can detect from the URL so it can not be identified how much time was spent on what.

There are two ways that you can add a time marker in your Timeline, you can add it directly from your timeline or from the WiseTime desktop app.

Desktop App

To add a time marker to your Timeline from the Desktop app, follow the steps below:

• Open the WiseTime Desktop App
• Select the Mark Time tab 

• Add a description and the time 
  • Recently used time markers descriptions are remembered for you to re-use 
  • The label/description can be a project/client name or a case/matter reference
• Click the icon to add this marker to your Timeline

Timeline

To add a time marker directly from your Timeline, follow the below steps:

• Click from your Timeline 
• Select 'Time Markers' from the drop down
• A pop-up will appear for your to add the label/description and change the time 
• Click Submit

The time marker will then be added to your timeline with the necessary time rows appearing underneath that relate to the marker. 

Users can add time markers when they switch working between matters (can add the matter name/number to the time marker label/description) so that there is more context in the Timeline for when time needs to be posted.

Add Time Markers to iPhone Siri Shortcuts

You can create Siri Shortcut on your iPhone, by which you can simply say "Hey Siri Add Marker" and it will bring up the Add Time Marker dialog. Then you can immediately type or dictate the marker-description if you wish.

You can also bookmark the Add Time Marker dialog in your browser (and also on your phone, e.g. as a home screen icon). The URL is: https://wisetime.com/timeline/day/today#time-marker

An example of when you could use the Time Markers feature, is if you use Westlaw, there is no useful information that WiseTime can detect from the URL so it can not be identified what exactly you're look at and how much time was spent on what but now if you have a time marker you can easily reflect that time back to the relevant project or matter.
