Important

This repository and extension has been superseded by Browsing Stats. It has more features, options and has improved user experience. The How long I've been here add-on will no longer be maintained.

Please give the Browsing Stats extension a shot by visiting the page and downloading it. Thank you!

How long I've been here?

Keep the track of how much time you spent on a website

How Long Ive Been Here is released under the GNU GPL v3 license. Unit Tests status Package verification status

This project is the Mozilla Firefox extension plugin.
It's purpose is to allow user to track, monitor the time spent on each website.

How does it work?

Once you visit a website (no matter if by switching the tab, or entering a URL in the current tab), the extension catches that moment and summarize the time spent on the website you are leaving.
Please note, that this extension summarizes and shows the time spent for a website in general, not for a certain webpage. What it means is that, for example of youtube service - this extension will calculate time spent on youtube in general, not the time spent on separate videos.

Privacy

This extension is to allow user to track his time, not to gather any data for statistics.
This extension does not sends any data to anywhere, but saves the data locally on your machine so that your data stays with you.
