Actually Played vs PS Playtime

Actually Played is a free, client-side Minecraft mod that tracks playtime separately for each server and singleplayer world, distinguishing active play from AFK time. After five minutes without qualifying activity, it stops the counter and reclassifies the recently counted idle period as AFK. Signals include movement intent, camera rotation, keyboard or mouse input, and actions such as breaking or placing blocks. Since the mod checks movement intent rather than position, being carried by water or a minecart does not count as active input. It needs no server installation and says it does not communicate with servers. History remains on the user's machine as readable, editable JSON. Sessions stay detailed for 90 days before older records are grouped into monthly summaries. Listed Minecraft versions are 1.7.10, 1.12.2, 1.16.5, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with Forge, Fabric or NeoForge support depending on the version. Realms are not tracked because the client lacks a stable identifier. On Minecraft 1.16 and later, settings are edited in a properties file rather than an in-game settings screen.

PS Playtime is a free web tool for checking time played on PlayStation games. It retrieves public data from PlayStation Network for PS4 and PS5 titles. To run a lookup, enter a PlayStation Network online ID or display name; the search is case-sensitive. No registration is required, and PS Playtime says it never asks for a PlayStation password, email, or login credentials. The library view shows each game’s hours played, first played date, and last played date, with sorting by playtime or most recently played. The game library and playtime must be publicly visible for access. Every lookup fetches current information from PlayStation Network, and gaming lookup data is not permanently stored on PS Playtime’s servers. Older PS3-era games and games played offline for long periods may have incomplete data. The terms allow access to be limited or blocked to protect the service from excessive requests or harmful scraping. PS Playtime describes itself as an independent fan-made tool, not affiliated with Sony Interactive Entertainment or PlayStation.
