What are the differences between Premium and Lite accounts?
RescueTime Premium gives you enhanced reporting and additional features—like Focus Sessions—that proactively promote productivity.
Advanced Reporting
Premium reports contain specific details about files and web pages within the programs you use and the websites you visit. For example, you'll be able to see which emails you wrote and how long you spent on each one! This is a great feature for anyone who needs to know exactly how much time they're spending on a project.
Using the Summary tab, you can edit an activity, delete sub-activities, and categorize your sub-activities. As an example, you can categorize some YouTube videos as distracting and others as work-related, depending on their content.
Premium users can also create custom sub-categories. If you use multiple programs for the same project, you can put them all in the same sub-category and see your progress at a glance.
Premium accounts have access to all their historical account data and can generate yearly activity reports, while Lite accounts are limited to two weeks of data. For Premium subscribers, no matter how long you use RescueTime, your data will still be available.
RescueTime Timesheets
Premium accounts can keep track of projects, tasks, clients, and billable hours with RescueTime Timesheets.
RescueTime Lite accounts have access to only one day on the Timeline and cannot generate Timesheets Reports.
Focus Sessions—Website & App Blocking
Focus Sessions block access to distracting websites and apps so that you can focus on productive activities. Only RescueTime Premium users have access to this feature. You can choose to continue with the distraction, change it to a work activity, or continue to focus.
Goals & Alerts
Premium accounts also have access to unlimited Goals and Alerts. Set multiple goals for more time on productive activities or less time on distracting activities. Lite accounts are limited to one active goal.
Alerts are a premium-only feature that allow you to trigger Focus Sessions based on your computer habits.
You'll receive notifications in the Assistant when you've reached a goal or met the conditions of an alert.
Offline Time Entry
Premium accounts may enter details for offline activities manually on the RescueTime website or through the Offline Time popup.
You can also enter offline time with the automated offline time popup. Just ensure its enabled in the offline time settings.
Offline time can be scored as Focus Work, Other Work, Neutral, Personal, or Distracting just like your online activities.
Advanced Filters
Premium accounts can create time filters to screen your data by time period and to set custom ranges for goals and alerts.
