How are the Pomodoros sized?
From the task’s estimate. A 1h50 estimate runs as 4 cycles of 25/5 and a 10-minute wrap-up, and sessions move on by themselves with a chime. Change the lengths in Settings: work sessions from 15 to 60 minutes, breaks from 3 to 15.
What does focus mode show?
The task, its steps and the time left, on a dark screen with nothing else on it. Add 5 or 15 minutes, pause, or finish the task with Enter. Minimize it and the timer keeps running in a corner.
What if a thought interrupts me?
Type it into the capture line at the bottom. It becomes a task that waits in Triage, and the block keeps running.
Where do the minutes go?
To the task. Report adds them up by category for a day, week, month or year, so you can see whether marketing or one course took the week.
