Problem: If i use the time allocation for once the time is noted on the app, but when i want to use twice the the total time that is stored is disappears and it starts form new time.
Bug Report: Timer Session History Is Not Preserved for a Task
Hello Routine Team,
I found an issue with the task timer.
Problem
When I start and stop the timer on a task multiple times throughout the day, Routine does not preserve the timestamp/history of each individual timer session.
Steps to Reproduce
Create or open a task.
Start the timer.
Stop the timer after working for some time.
Start the timer again on the same task.
Repeat this process multiple times.
Expected Behavior
Each timer session should be recorded separately, including:
Start time
End time
Duration of the session
This would allow users to review exactly when they worked on the task throughout the day.
Actual Behavior
Only the latest timer information is visible. Previous timer sessions and their timestamps are not available, making it impossible to review the complete work history for that task.
Why This Matters
Many users work on the same task in multiple sessions. Without a history of each timer session, it is difficult to:
Review when work was done.
Track productivity accurately.
Audit time spent across multiple work intervals.
I have attached a screen recording demonstrating the issue.

Hi there, thanks for reaching out! This is Manos from Routine and I’m here to help.
From what I understand, you’re trying to do multiple allocations for a task and once you use it the second time, the original is disappearing?
Did you follow the steps listed here: https://help.routine.co/articles/7160115-task-allocations
Any screenshots or video recording showcasing the steps you’re taking will be greatly helpful!
Looking forward to continuing the discussion.
All the best,
Manos @Routine
