Features	7.0 TimeOWare offers basic functions for checking the time spent on websites. These include time recording on websites, where the percentage of total time taken up by each website is displayed directly in real-time in a statistic. Another feature is the blocking of websites. Websites can easily be blocked manually if you think that you no longer want to use this website. Here we would like to see the manual blocking of websites. However, it lacks advanced features such as detailed analytics or customizable alerts that some users may find useful. Nevertheless, the core features are well implemented and serve the main purpose of improving digital well-being.	8.5 Evernote Web Clipper offers a large number of functions that make it easier to save and organize web content. These include simple bookmarking, but also other functions such as the ability to add highlights and comments to screenshots, which we find particularly useful. A very important main function for us is also to set tags and easily find saved data, photos, or similar using tags. Titles can also be added here to display them clearly in your notebook.
Performance	9.0 TimeOWare works reliably, with no noticeable slowdowns or performance issues during use. The extension runs in the background and provides real-time updates on time spent without affecting browser speed.	7.0 Performance is a major drawback of Evernote Web Clipper. Many users report issues in reviews about the tool not loading or not working properly. Although it offers many features, these performance issues can be annoying and limit overall effectiveness. In our tests, only a few minor performance issues were detected.
Design	7.5 The design of TimeOWare is clear and intuitive, making it easy to find your way around immediately. All available functions can be used directly. The minimalist interface ensures that users are clearly shown which websites may pose problems for their digital well-being. In our tests, however, we found that there could be a little more customization options to adapt the displays to our own needs.	7.0 The design is functional, but not particularly intuitive. Although the interface is clear, navigating the settings and functions is somewhat confusing. Improvements in the design of the user interface could improve the accessibility of the tool for a larger target group.
Value for Money	9.0 As a completely free tool, TimeOWare offers excellent value for money as it provides essential time management features at no cost whatsoever. The open-source nature of the extension also adds value as it allows users to review and modify the code if desired. The only reason it doesn't get full marks is that some features offered by competitors are not yet available.	7.5 The extension itself is free, but it is only really useful when the paid version of Evernote is activated. Considering that you have to think your way in to set everything up and use it, the price-performance ratio might be a bit expensive for basic users.
Ease of Use	8.5 TimeOWare is easy to use, with little set-up time. Once installed, it starts tracking time immediately. Likewise, the limited settings are self-explanatory and should be easy for anyone to understand. In our tests, we noticed that if several tabs are opened next to each other, they are also added up in the extension at the same time. The total number of hours is therefore higher than the actual number in the browser. This can be somewhat confusing for new users.	6.5 The tool has a slightly larger learning curve, especially for new users. Numerous shortcuts can be defined for easy clipping, but it can take a long time from initial setup to full use. In addition, many users have reported problems with logging in and loading the tool.
Security & Privacy	10 TimeOWare is characterized by security and privacy, as it does not transmit any user data to the outside world and all information is only stored offline on the user's device. This privacy-focused approach is a key benefit for users who are concerned about data security. Users can also check the code used on GitHub themselves if they have any concerns.	8.0 Evernote Web Clipper handles user data responsibly and has clear data protection guidelines. However, the tool does not respond to “Do Not Track” signals, which could be problematic for some users who value this. The data is stored on US servers, meaning data protection law applies there.
Conclusion	TimeOWare is a great choice for anyone who wants to manage their online time more effectively and realize how much time is spent on websites. Its simple design and privacy-focused approach make it, in our opinion, a standout option in the time management space. We felt in testing that a little more customization and even more features could further improve the extension. Overall, however, we think TimeOWare is already a valuable tool for anyone looking to improve their digital well-being.	Evernote Web Clipper is a good tool for anyone who needs to save and organize web content. Its integration with Evernote makes it a powerful extension for productivity enthusiasts, especially if Evernote is already in use. Drawbacks include ease of use and performance issues reported by users. Overall, it is a strong tool but may require some patience and troubleshooting.
