Snag help

Snag for the desktop

Snag is a desktop app for quick capture and time tracking. One keypress opens a box that files a task, logs time or adds a note to your Snag account. A timer in the tray and the status bar records time locally first and syncs it afterwards, so it keeps working through suspend, reboots and lost connections.

Version 0.7.0. Linux only, Wayland or X11. Built and tested on Hyprland.
