# Tracking Settings

# Tracking Settings

The Tracking settings pane controls when Chronoid records activity and how it handles edge cases like idle time, meetings, and privacy-sensitive browsing.

![Tracking Settings](/docs/tracking/tracking.webp)

## Idle Detection

Chronoid can suspend tracking after a chosen period of inactivity.

You can configure:

- whether idle detection is enabled
- how long Chronoid waits before considering you idle
- whether to prompt you to log offline time when you return

The return prompt is useful for calls, meetings, or offline work that still belongs in your day.

## Automatic Tracking Schedule

If you do not want Chronoid tracking all day, enable a schedule and choose:

- start time
- end time
- active weekdays

Chronoid then tracks only during those windows.

## Meeting Detection

Chronoid can detect when a meeting ends and offer to log that time as a manual entry.

You can choose:

- whether the meeting-end prompt is enabled
- the minimum meeting duration required before Chronoid shows the prompt

## Privacy And Filtering

Chronoid includes settings to reduce noisy or sensitive tracking.

Depending on your setup, this can include:

- filtering out very short entries
- avoiding private browsing details
- using ignore rules for apps or sites you do not want treated like normal tracked work

For more on dedicated exclusions, see [Ignore Rules](/docs/settings/ignore-rules).
