How the focus timer works

Our Focus Timer helps you maintain productivity by alternating between focused work sessions and restorative breaks. This method has been proven to enhance concentration and reduce mental fatigue.

How to use the timer:

1. Click "Start" to begin a focus session.
2. Work on your task until the timer ends.
3. Take a short break when prompted.
4. Use "Pause" to temporarily stop the timer.
5. Use "Reset" to start over at any time.

Customizing the timer:

You can change the duration of focus sessions and breaks in the Settings page to match your personal productivity rhythm.

Managing tasks

• Enter a task title and click "Add" to create a new task.
• Click the checkbox to mark a task as complete.
• Use "Edit" to modify a task's title or description.
• Use "Delete" to remove a task permanently.
• Completed tasks are moved to a separate list below the active tasks.

Using templates for recurring tasks

Templates are a powerful feature that let you save and reuse groups of tasks for your daily routines:

• Click "Templates" to open the template manager.
• Select a template and click "Load Template" to instantly add those tasks to your list.
• Click "Save current task list as template" to create a new template from your current tasks.
• Create separate templates for different situations (work days, weekends, specific projects).
• Use templates to quickly set up your recurring daily tasks without retyping them.

Pro tip: Create a template for your daily recurring tasks to save time and ensure consistency in your routine!

Building streaks

Streaks help you build consistent habits:

• Complete at least one task each day OR finish one focus session to maintain your streak.
• Weekend grace period: You can skip Saturday and Sunday without breaking your streak, as long as you complete tasks on Friday and Monday.
• Your current streak shows how many consecutive days you've completed tasks or focus sessions.
• The contribution graph displays your activity over the last 60 days.
• Missing a day will reset your current streak.

Available settings

• Customize focus timer duration (1-60 minutes)
• Customize break timer duration (1-30 minutes)
• Toggle between light and dark mode
• Reset all application data if needed
