How KeepXo tracking features work
Delivering transparency, control, and access to every member of the team.
Built for transparency and efficiency
Employee privacy and empowerment are important to us. With every new feature, we work to ensure team members stay in control, that they understand how the software works, when it's running, and that they have access to all of their data. OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES :

You’re in control
KeepXo works like a traditional time clock system that’s installed on a desktop or mobile device. You decide when to start the timer, and can easily stop it whenever you need to do something else. The app only captures proof of work (screenshots, app and URL tracking, and activity rates) if your organization has these features turned on and you’re actively tracking time.

How it works
- Choose your appYou choose which app or web timer to use, based on what makes the most sense for your role.
- Set permissionsDepending on the device, you’ll likely be asked to allow permissions so that you know what’s being tracked.
- Clock in and outYou decide when to start and stop the timer. That means that proof of work features including time tracking, activity rates, and app and URL tracking are only active when you’re actively working.
Know what’s being tracked

What each app tracks
See how the KeepXo apps differ in what they capture and keep track of while you’re working.

Customizable for each person
KeepXo can be set up with preferences for each individual. While we’re showcasing all functionality, your organization might choose to turn off or customize certain features.
Access to all your own information
You have access to your own data and can see exactly what management sees. Further, KeepXo’s default settings allow you to delete your time and the information attached to it if you choose. Your data will never be sold to third parties.

Benefits for the whole team
SMARTER TRACKING, GREATER PRODUCTIVITY
Avoid frequent check-ins
Many distributed teams have to submit progress reports so that everyone else knows what was worked on. KeepXo takes care of that.
Screenshots can show work in progress so instead of pausing to hop on a call or share sketches, you can keep working. Managers can check the KeepXo dashboard instead of interrupting their team’s workflow


Know more, work smarter
With the information KeepXo provides, employees and managers can make smarter decisions and focus more time on their most critical work. Your dashboard gives you a clear overview of your day and workweek.
Hate having to punch in?
Then we have good news. You can create geofences around job sites that tell the KeepXo mobile app to automatically start and stop the timer when you arrive and leave. You won’t have to fill out time cards at the end of the day or week — it’s already done for you. And you didn’t have to spend a minute thinking about it.


Get paid
Some workplaces pay their teams through KeepXo and require timesheet approvals. If that’s the case, you’ll need to submit a timesheet when prompted. Then, payments can be automatically sent to you. Using KeepXo timesheets to get paid can help avoid any disputes or questions about what was worked on.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know when screenshots are taken?
You will get alerts as screenshots are captured.
Does KeepXo take webcam photos?
No. And we never do this. We are only concerned with capturing the work being done on this device.
Does KeepXo log keystrokes?
No. KeepXo does not track what your typing, only if you are typing or not.
Who has access to my screenshots?
You, your manager(s) and the organizations owner(s). Learn more about who can see your screenshots.
I forgot to stop the timer, and KeepXo captured private data. Can I delete the screenshot?
Yes, all users can delete their own screenshots. Please note that this will also delete the time tracked for that screenshot. Learn more about modifying time and deleting screenshots. If you’re concerned about private information being shared while working, ask your manager about the option to blur screenshots
What can the mobile app track?
Similar to the desktop apps, the mobile features can be customized. Here is everything you can track from KeepXo mobile apps:
- Time Worked
- projects and tasks worked on (you select)
- Locations while tracking time
- Fleet tracking- you choose always on, just while tracking time, during a shift, or turned off.
How about the Chrome extension?
You can track time to projects and tasks in the chrome extension. You’ll also get an activity rate based on the mouse and keyboard usage.
How about the Chromebook app?
The Chromebook app can record:
- Time worked
- Projects and tasks worked on.
- Activity rates
- Screenshots
What information does KeepXo monitor and store, while I'm not tracking time and have fleet tracker disabled?
Nothing. KeepXo only tracks when you start and stop the timer. You’re in control of your data.
What does fleet tracking mean?
Fleet tracking is a feature available only within the mobile app that has to be enabled by the owner of the device to function. When the permission is granted, the device is tracked with in KeepXo to show where it is and when. This feature is common among field teams that have Job Sites set up so they are automatically clocked in-out when they reach or leave their work destination.
How does KeepXo discard timed tracked with low activity levels?
No. KeepXo does not allow rules to be set that would automatically discard the time tracked below a certain activity level. We do however allow idle time to be removed on a per-user setting, but that’s when there is no activity whatsoever; not just low activity rates below a certain number.
We understand that activity rates can vary by role and even throughout the day or week. Instead of relying solely on activity percentages, we encourage managers to use the KeepXo dashboard, timesheet approvals, and other proof of work features to get a clearer picture of how your team works.
