When the end of day update asks what you did and your brain says nothing

End of day summaries are annoying when the work was real but scattered. You opened docs, fixed one bug, checked a client thread, reviewed a file, answered messages, got pulled into a call, and now the update box wants a clean little paragraph. Trackr gives Mac users a private local activity trail so the summary starts from actual five-minute slices instead of panic scrolling browser history.
