Note: The Time Doctor Browser App is available in all Time Doctor subscription plans for devices operating in ChromeOS and can be accessed by all users.
TL;DR:
Deploy the Time Doctor Browser App to ChromeOS devices through the Google Admin console. Add it from the Chrome Web Store, choose an install option (force, allow, or block), and ensure Chrome users also install the Chrome Extension. Inviting Users from the Invite page remains necessary, as deployment does not create accounts.
Prerequisites
-
Admin-level access to the Google Admin console is required.
-
The Browser App is supported on ChromeOS devices.
-
For users on Chrome browsers (non-ChromeOS), also deploy the Time Doctor Chrome Extension. Refer to the article: How to Install the Time Doctor Chrome Extension Using Google Workspace.
Steps to Install
-
Log into admin.google.com.
-
From the left sidebar, go to Devices.
-
Select Chrome → Apps & extensions.
-
Under Apps & extensions, choose the organizational unit(s) to apply the installation (specific OUs or the entire organization).
-
Select Users & browsers.
-
Click the + icon at the bottom-right corner and choose Add from Chrome Web Store.
-
Search for Time Doctor: Workforce Analytics and Time Tracker.
- Select the app and click Accept on the permissions screen.
Installation Options
Choose the deployment method that best suits your organization:
-
Force install + pin – Installs automatically and pins to the browser toolbar.
-
Force install – Installs automatically without pinning.
-
Allow install – Makes the app available for users to install manually.
-
Block – Prevents installation.
Important
-
Deployment does not automatically create Time Doctor accounts. Users must still be invited through the Invite page.

For Chrome browser users, ensure the Time Doctor Chrome Extension is also installed.
