Built for billing clients, not building discipline.
Toggl Track is a solid tool if you invoice clients by the hour. If what you actually want is to build a daily practice — show up, stay consistent, see your streaks — it wasn't built for that. Tupp was.
The short version
Toggl Track started as (and still mostly is) a web-first time-billing tool for freelancers and teams — timers, projects, invoicing exports. Tupp is a mobile-first discipline system: the same core time tracking, plus habits, routines, a calendar, and an AI assistant that logs what you tell it, all running live on your lock screen and Apple Watch. If billable hours are the whole job, Toggl's reporting is more mature. If the job is showing up for yourself every day, Tupp is built around that instead.

Why people switch
It's not just a timer
Habits, routines, a calendar, and a checklist system are all built in — Toggl only tracks time.
Always visible, without opening the app
Live Activity keeps your session on the lock screen and Dynamic Island; Toggl's mobile app has to be reopened to check.
Built for you, not your invoice
No client fields, no billable-rate settings to configure — just activities you actually do.
Cheaper, and free stays useful
Tupp's free tier has no user cap or feature wall — PRO is $4.99/mo. Toggl's paid tiers start around $9–10/mo per user.
Tupp vs Toggl — frequently asked.
Can I import my Toggl data into Tupp?
Not automatically today — Toggl doesn't offer a compatible export format for activities and habits. Most people find it faster to just start fresh: add your usual activities once, and every session from then on is tracked automatically.
Is Tupp free to use, or do I need PRO?
The focus timer, checklist, habit tracker, and 7 days of history are all free forever. PRO ($4.99/mo or $39.99/yr) unlocks unlimited custom activities, full history, and advanced fields — you don't need it to actually use the app.
Does Tupp support teams and client billing like Toggl?
Tupp Business adds shared activity libraries and org-wide tracking for teams, but it's built around accountability and routines, not invoicing. If hourly client billing and rate-based reporting is your main need, Toggl's reporting tools are more mature there.
Which one actually helps me stay consistent?
That's the core difference: Toggl tells you where your time went after the fact. Tupp is built to keep you showing up — Live Activity keeps a session visible while it's running, and habits and routines carry the discipline forward day to day, not just log it.
