TimeTrex started in 1999 as a similar custom application under a different name.

In November 2016, the developers removed files from SourceForge and began making the user download the software from their website. However, no version number or release notes are being provided, so it's not clear what version is being downloaded.[5] Last known version number is 9.1.3 on August 12, 2016.
