New Features

Support for the Total Time Active Criterion in Applications Rules

We are adding support for the Total Time Active (min) criterion in Applications rules:

This will let you detect how long the user has been active for the entire day* in certain application(s).

You can use the Application Name and Application Caption with this criterion and the following actions: Notify, Block, and Warn.


*Total active time measures active time accumulated in a day. The time will reset the next day.

Support for the Total Time Idle Criterion in Applications Rules

We are adding support for the Total Time Idle (min) criterion in Applications rules:

This will let you detect how long the user has been idle for the entire day* in certain application(s).

You can use the Application Name and Application Caption with this criterion and the following actions: Notify, Block, and Warn.


*Total idle time measures idle time accumulated in a day. The time will reset the next day.

Support for the Time Focused Criterion in Applications Rules

We are adding support for the Time Focused (min) criterion in Applications rules:

This will let you detect how long the user has been focused on certain application(s).

You can use the Application Name and Application Caption with this criterion and the following actions: Notify, Block, and Warn.


*Time Focused = Time Active + Time Idle. It detects if the user stayed on an application for the specified duration. It doesn’t matter whether the user was active (e.g., keyboard/mouse is used) or idle (no keyboard/mouse activity); as long as they stayed on the app without switching to other apps, the condition will be triggered.

Support for the Total Time Focused Criterion in Applications Rules

We are adding support for the Total Time Focused (min) criterion in Applications rules:

This criterion is similar to the Time Focused criterion but detects the total time focused in a day*.

You can use the Application Name and Application Caption with this criterion and the following actions: Notify, Block, and Warn.


*Total focus time measures focus time accumulated in a day. The time will reset the next day.

Bug Fixes

Input Malfunction in the Remote Control Feature

Due to a bug, some versions of the Agent would have issues with the remote control feature on the Session Player. As a result, double clicks, drag-and-drop, text selection and some hotkeys/key combinations wouldn't work on the remote host.

The bug is fixed now.

Note that some key combinations such as Command(⌘)+Tab, Command(⌘)+Q, etc. will not work. This is expected behavior as these hotkeys are intercepted by the operating system or the browser and will not reach the Agent.

The Revealed Agent would Crash when Exiting with Command(⌘)+Q

Due to a bug, in rare situations, the Agent would crash if you pressed Command(⌘)+Q to quit the Agent.

The bug is fixed now.

The Revealed Agent would Crash when Starting a Task

Due to a bug, the Agent would crash just after starting a task. The user would see an error message, "Teramind Agent quit unexpectedly.":

This seems to happen on macOS Monterey, but other versions might be affected too.

The bug is fixed now.
