Time is tracked and logged upon workflow actions like Start/Stop Progress. Close, Resolve, etc. for assignee. Timer is ticking only when issue status category is 'In Progress' and assignee is set. Read more about status category in JIRA. .
This mode supports all JIRA workflows (including custom ones).

When switching from "Manual Mode" all running timers will be removed.

Simultaneous timers

Only one user can start timer for an issue (no simultaneous timers for an issue, manual mode only)

You can combine those two timer options. In automatic mode timer starts only for assignee
