No screenshots. No keylogging. Captured activity stays on your device.

One row per session, with application, URL, and tab context. End-of-day review takes minutes instead of the manual reconstruction that typically drags into Friday afternoons.
Sensible defaults out of the box — browsers, IDEs, mail clients, chat apps all detected. Pro lets you refine that with two kinds of rules:
linear.app → Planning, github.com → DevelopmentOUTLOOK.EXE → Communication, code.exe → DevelopmentEvery session lands in the right bucket, so the timeline reads as project work instead of generic app names.
See the rules guide →
DayReplay samples the foreground app, window title, and active browser tab every five seconds. There are no timers to start, stop, or remember — context-switching no longer erodes your records.
Beyond the application name, DayReplay records the active tab's URL and the titles of other open tabs in the focused window. Sessions are grouped by domain so the timeline reads as project work rather than “Chrome, 4 hours.”
Pro CSV export produces one row per session with start, end, duration, application, domain, and tab list — a structured artifact you can hand to a client or import into a billing system directly.
Captured activity is stored in a SQLite database under your user profile, with file mode 0600 on macOS. The data does not leave your device; the only outbound network calls are update checks and license validation.
The app verifies your license with Lemon Squeezy on activation, then revalidates at most once every 24 hours in the background. A seven-day offline grace window keeps Pro features available during travel or intermittent connectivity.
Native Windows and macOS builds, with the same license key activating on either platform — up to five devices per key. Manage active devices any time from the activation portal in your purchase confirmation email.
Both builds are self-contained — no .NET runtime install required.
Install from the Microsoft Store to skip the SmartScreen warning, or use the direct MSI installer (Windows 10/11, x64). The MSI is Authenticode-signed by Zaahr Inc. via Azure Trusted Signing; on the direct download SmartScreen may still show a reputation warning on early installs until Microsoft Defender accumulates download data — click More info → Run anyway. See the FAQ for steps and SHA-256 verification.
Signed & notarized .dmg, macOS 13+ (Apple Silicon). Open the .dmg, drag DayReplay to your /Applications folder (one admin password prompt to copy in), then grant Accessibility when DayReplay asks. Runs as a menu-bar utility, so you won't see a dock icon. One-click uninstall from the in-app Updates dialog, with optional history + Keychain wipe — no Terminal. See the FAQ for details.
Free covers today's replay (1-day history), the built-in category rules (read-only), and the diagnostics panel. Pro adds 30-day history, day navigation (← →), custom category-rule editing, and CSV export.
Same license works on Windows and macOS — up to five devices. Compare plans →
