Frequently Asked Questions
How does TimeWasted.io calculate wasted time?
We multiply your daily hours spent on a habit by 365.25 days per year, then by the number of years. The result shows total hours, days, weeks, months, years and percentage of your awake life.
What could I have done with my wasted time?
We convert your wasted hours into real-world equivalences: books you could have read, languages learned, marathons run, novels written, university degrees earned, paintings created, and much more.
Can I calculate multiple habits at once?
Yes! You can select multiple daily habits like TV, social media, gaming, commuting and more, then see the combined total of all your wasted time together.
