Focus.
A focus countdown in the bar’s own corner. Click to start, click to pause, and the ring fills while you work. Rain, Ocean or Fireplace fades in to keep you there.
Twenty-five minutes. Nothing else.
Every state lives in the same spot in your bar, so nothing around it ever moves.
Idle
A play button in an empty ring. Click to start your chosen length.
Running
Orange pause, the time left, and a ring that fills each second.
Paused
Orange play and time; the ring breathes until you’re back.
Hover for stop
A small stop button fades in over the time. Nothing moves.
Done
A green check, a chime and a card with Again, for 3 seconds.
Play with it.
The real controls, with sound. Tap to start.
One click, right in the bar
Click to start, click to pause, hover for stop. Pick 5 to 90 minutes from the right-click menu.
Tied to your group
A session belongs to the group you started it in. Turn on “Pause outside this group” and it waits while you’re elsewhere.
Focus music
Rain, Ocean or Fireplace, generated live so it never loops audibly, or your own file. Fades in on start, out on pause.
Honest time
Sessions end on the wall clock, so late ticks never stretch one, and a running session survives a restart.
Done, clearly
A green check, a soft chime and a card with an Again button. Click sounds can be turned off in the menu.
Today’s total
The menu shows how long you’ve focused today, per group.
