Feature request: grouping time into tasks with manual editing

[sgrodnik]

I’d love to be able to manually group time intervals into logical Tasks.

Typical scenario:

• I start working on Task 1 at 12:00 and finish around 15:00
• Then I switch to Task 2
• During my evening review, I want to look back at what I did between 12:00 and 15:00
• If I notice that from 13:00 to 13:30 I was doing something unrelated, I want to remove that chunk from Task 1 or move it to another task

The problem is: I can’t rely on categories like window titles or app names - I might be working on multiple tasks in the same file or tool.

Usually, I remember approximate start and end times for each task, and I just want to subtract AFK time or clearly unrelated distractions from that block.

This kind of workflow would really help with task-focused productivity analysis instead of just app-based tracking.

If there’s no built-in way to do this in ActivityWatch, I’d still appreciate any hacky workaround: external tools, export/import flows (even to Excel and back), or scripts. I just need some direction on where to start.

Thanks in advance for any pointers!

I don't know if you saw but I think this relates a little bit to this discussion and especially this comment

Unfortunately this seems not possible for the moment 🥺
