Google Chrome extension: common questions
What are the everyday advantages of managing project time?
A clear understanding of project cost, with visibility into the time employees spend on activities.
Can I see productivity reports with task management?
In Day.io, you see your productivity reports as soon as the manager approves the task, so you can decide quickly on cost and a project's next steps.
Is time logging accurate and reliable?
Yes. To guarantee accuracy, project managers should regularly approve the time recorded by team members.
How to ensure accurate timesheet data and avoid errors or fraud?
Review and approve team members' activities to make sure recorded data is correct and complete. This includes checking whether time spent on each task matches the plan and is reasonable and justified.
Will employees have trouble clocking in with Day.io?
No. The company decides which device each employee clocks in on: a phone, a tablet, the website or the browser extension. The employee just presses a button to clock in or out.
Do employees have to use facial recognition?
No. Your company collects consent in its own process and switches facial recognition on for each employee. Anyone else clocks in with a PIN.
What are the main benefits for employees and leaders of incorporating the Chrome extension and Day.io into their work routine?
Employees clock in quickly and can see their own overtime. Managers see who's working, where they clocked in, each person's overtime, and any lateness or absences.
How is our data protected?

Is it easy to remove the Day.io extension from the browser?
