Easy to use, intergrates with workflow

Really like the new version. Sometime while I wasn’t paying attention they added a way to keep the timesheet visible at all times. You add time just like you do in the web app. Neither the web app, nor the desktop app have lost any of my data. (This was mentioned in another comment.) No crashes, and everything works the way I’d expect.

Now that I can keep the timesheet visible at all times, the desktop app fits into my workflow a lot better. Seeing the timesheet helps make sure I don’t leave timers running or forget to record a time entry.

Two downsides: First, if I add a new project on the site, I have to restart the desktop app before the new project will show up in the list. (Not sure if I’m not patient enough for it to poll an updated list of projects, or if it only updates on launch.) Second, the list of entries appears in the order it was added. I switch across multiple projects pretty frequently, so it’d be better for me if it was alphabetized by project.
