Everhour Basecamp 3 Integration

December 16, 2015

I bet everyone already heard of an all-new version of Basecamp called Basecamp 3. If not – check out the following blog post where Jason Fried explains everything in great detail.

At the same time, it was a new challenge for us because we had to change the entire “embed” mechanism for our Basecamp time tracking integration (you can check out other Basecamp integrations or Basecamp alternatives too) to follow the new interface and principles. And today we are happy to showcase the result.

Inline timer

Same as before, everywhere in the app, you can start a timer by clicking the tiny icon next to the to-do title. Right there you can find the elapsed time, original estimate, and remaining time accordingly.

Task details

If you go to the task details, you’ll have all the same functionality, in a slightly different representation (more conveniently).

At the top, you’ll notice the “Add time” button. Very useful if you have forgotten to report time yesterday or have started working on something earlier today and forgot to start the timer.

Edit details

In order to set or update an estimate, you either go to the edit page or use the inline form.

That’s it! In case we missed something and if you feel like you have reasonable and realistic ideas in mind, go ahead and tell us. We are always happy to make the product better 🙂
