Screenshots add up: about 10 MB per person per working day. TimeTrackr keeps this under control for you, and only holds staff screenshots as long as you choose.
Where to find it:
Settings, the Data retention section in the first panel. Press Save settings after changing it.
Delete screenshots older than:
Choose 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year or Never delete. The default is 90 days. The cleanup runs shortly after TimeTrackr starts, then every 6 hours, and removes both the pictures and their records.
Auto-close timers running longer than:
Choose 8, 10, 12, 16 or 24 hours, or Never auto-close. The default is 12 hours. A timer left running longer than this is closed at that length and its note says so, so nobody is paid for a night they slept through.
How much space is used:
Under the two settings you can see how many screenshot files there are, how much disk they use, how many screenshot records are in the database, and when the last cleanup ran.
Run cleanup now:
Press Run cleanup now to clean up straight away instead of waiting. It asks you to confirm, then tells you how many screenshots were removed and how many runaway timers were closed.
A worked example:
Fern & Fig Studio has five people tracking. At about 10 MB each per day, 90 days of screenshots comes to roughly 4 to 5 GB, which fits comfortably on a small server.
