timeghost Time tracking can be used in different ways, depending on how you prefer to work. You can access the application through Microsoft Teams, directly in a web browser, or install it as a Progressive Web App (PWA) on supported desktop and mobile devices.

The same timeghost workspace can be accessed through these different options, so you can choose the one that best fits your workflow.


In short

Use timeghost directly in Microsoft Teams if you want it integrated into your Microsoft 365 environment, open it in a browser for quick independent access, or install it as a PWA for an app-like experience on your device.


Use timeghost in Microsoft Teams


timeghost Time tracking is available through the Microsoft Teams Store and can be used directly inside Microsoft Teams.


This is particularly useful if Teams is already the central place where you work. You can open timeghost without switching to a separate application and keep your time tracking within your Microsoft 365 environment.


After adding timeghost to Teams, you can also pin the app so that it remains easily accessible from the Teams navigation.


Depending on how your Microsoft 365 environment is managed, your organization may need to allow or deploy the app before you can use it.

Use timeghost in a web browser


You can also use timeghost Time tracking directly in a supported web browser.


Browser access can be useful if you want to keep timeghost open separately from Microsoft Teams—for example, while continuing to work in Teams chats or meetings at the same time.


Your workspace, permissions and recorded data remain the same regardless of whether you access timeghost through Teams or your browser.

Install timeghost as a Progressive Web App


On supported browsers and operating systems, timeghost can be installed as a Progressive Web App (PWA).


A PWA opens in its own application window and can usually be launched directly from your desktop, taskbar, Start menu or home screen. This provides an app-like experience without requiring a separate native timeghost application.


For users who work with timeghost frequently, this can be a convenient way to keep time tracking immediately accessible.

Use timeghost on mobile devices


timeghost Time tracking can also be accessed on mobile devices.


You can use it through Microsoft Teams mobile, in a supported mobile browser, or—where supported—install the web application on your home screen as a PWA.


Which option works best may depend on your device and your personal workflow. If you use timeghost frequently on mobile, browser or PWA access can be a useful alternative to opening the application through Teams each time.

Switching between access methods

You are not tied to one access method.

For example, you can use timeghost:

  • in Microsoft Teams during your regular workday,
  • in a separate browser window while keeping Teams open,
  • as an installed PWA on your desktop,
  • and from your mobile device when you are away from your computer.

All of these options access the same timeghost workspace.
