If you use the Projects and Tasks feature of the Time Doctor application, the Admin or Manager of your Time Doctor account can create Projects & Tasks and assign them to you as explained in this article so you can track time to these tasks. 

Time Doctor Chrome OS Application - No Task Version

If you don’t use the Projects and Tasks feature of the Time Doctor application, you can still use the Chrome OS application to track time using the Play and Pause buttons on the application.

Chrome OS Application and the Chrome Extension:

Time Doctor offers integrations with some third-party apps via a Chrome Extension. You can use the Chrome OS application along with the extension, which inserts a button to begin tracking time to third-party application tasks.

Here is a list of 3rd party applications that our Chrome extension supports, and here is a video tutorial that shows how the extension works.

Note: 

The Chrome OS application can only take screenshots and record the activity of the user within the web browser window only. Any user activity outside of the web browser isn’t tracked by the application.
