Time Tracker for Azure DevOps
Log hours against work items. See your month at a glance. Slice project-wide reports for billing and capacity. All without leaving Azure DevOps and without paying per seat.

Built for two audiences
For developers
- One-click add on every work item. The "Time Tracking" panel slides in beside the description, so you log time where you already are — no separate timesheet app, no context switch.
- Quick-add buttons
+0.5h / +1h / +2h / +4h for common durations, plus precise From/To inputs that snap to 15-minute steps with arrow keys or scroll wheel.
- Personal monthly calendar showing every day's total, your week, and your month — hover any cell to add time with a single click.

For project managers and admins
- Team breakdown on every ticket. See exactly who logged how much on this work item, with a proportional progress bar — without leaving the ticket.
- Reports hub with daily stacked chart, summary cards, and a per-user table that expands into work-item-level detail. Filter by date range, users, or iteration.
- CSV export of any filtered view — drop into invoicing, capacity planning, or external dashboards.
- Iteration filter to slice reports per sprint.

If you need a heavyweight stand-alone product (invoicing, salary integration, time-off accrual, dozens of report views), this isn't it. If you need solid in-Azure-DevOps time logging that team members will actually use, this is it.

Privacy
Everything stays inside your Azure DevOps organization:
- Time entries are stored in Azure DevOps Extension Data Service (Microsoft-hosted, scoped to your org)
- No external API calls, no telemetry, no analytics
- Two scopes per entry: User (only the author reads) and Collection (project members read for aggregate views)
- Uninstalling the extension does not delete your data — it remains in your org's EDS until manually purged
OAuth scopes requested: vso.work (read work items so we can show titles next to entry IDs) and vso.identity (legacy identities endpoint for the optional admin gate on Reports).
Install
- Open the Marketplace listing (or search for Time Tracker in your org's Extensions panel).
- Click Get it free and pick the target Azure DevOps organization.
- Project Collection Administrator rights are required to install. If you don't see the Install button, ask a PCA group member.
After install, Time Tracker appears as a top-level entry in every project's navigation (with Monthly and Time Reports under it), and Time Tracking appears as a section on every work item form.
Compatible with
- Azure DevOps Services (
dev.azure.com)
- Azure DevOps Server 2020+
