If you would like to try out a mktplace app for this need, pls take a look at

@kenny hi! 

You might want to consider exploring the third-party plugins available on the Atlassian marketplace for time tracking, e.g. TMetric.

I would find it quite useful. It offers a wide range of features, including tracking time spent on tasks by users, and provides helpful reporting capabilities with tasks summaries. It might be worth checking out.

Best,

Kate

Hi @kenny  Welcome to the community!

As mentioned here, Jira does not offer such a native feature. However, if you are open to solutions available on the Atlassian marketplace then the Worklogs - Time Tracking and Time Reports app has such a feature - this marketplace app belongs to the vendor I work for.

You can easily add multiple worklogs gadgets to your Jira Dashboard and configure them the way you need using a rich array of filters.

The app is based on native logged time in Jira, so if you log time this way then you will be ready to view reports after installation, both on the Jira Dashboard and directly in the app.

If you have any questions then please contact us or schedule a meeting.

Hello @kenny ,

Welcome to the community !
Worklog gadget isn't available, but you do have 'Time tracking' and 'user workload' report available in the Board-Reports.

If you would like to have Worklog  - then one may need to have addons from marketplace.
Alternate, you can have a Filter result with columns as Original Estimate, TIme remaining, and rows as assignee. 

Refer this about Log work in JIRA Cloud.
