The Companion — focus timer
Having an issue, found a bug, or have a suggestion? Get in touch at [email protected] and I'll get back to you.
How do I start a focus session?
Type what you want to get done into the field on the home screen, pick a duration (15, 25, 45, 60, or a custom number of minutes), and tap "just start."
Can I set my own custom time instead of the presets?
Yes — tap the "+" pill next to the minute options and scroll the wheel to pick any duration.
How do I change the app's colour theme?
Tap the paintbrush icon on the home screen to open the theme picker, including a dark mode option.
Can I add more time if I'm not finished?
Yes — while a session is running, tap "+10 min" to extend it without losing your progress.
How do breaks work?
Tap "break" during a focus session to step away for 5 minutes. When you're ready, "end break early" resumes your focus session with exactly the time that was left — it never restarts the timer.
Can I see my task list without leaving the timer?
Yes — tap the list icon in the top corner of the timer screen at any time.
Where do my completed tasks go?
Open the list icon on the home screen. Completed tasks appear in a "completed" section marked with the date you finished them, and can be tapped again to mark them as not done.
