Focus records and Statistics

Every finished Pomo and every Stopwatch session of a minute or more is saved to your focus record. The record shows where your time went, day by day. Statistics zooms out to the week, month or year, with what got done, what’s late, focus time and habits kept.

Your focus record is yours only. The other person can’t see it.

When to use it

  • At the end of the day, to see what you actually worked on.
  • To add a session you forgot to time.
  • Once a week or month, to see if the time went where you meant it to.

See today’s numbers and your record

  1. Open Pomodoro (the Menu tab, then Pomodoro on a phone; the app bar on a computer).
  2. On a computer the Overview and Focus record sit on the right. On a phone, scroll down under the timer.
  3. Overview shows four numbers: Today’s Pomo, Today’s focus, Total Pomo and Total focus duration.
  4. Focus record lists each session under its day (Today, Yesterday, then the date), with the time, what you worked on and how long it ran.

Add a session by hand

  1. Tap + next to Focus record. Add focus record opens.
  2. Pick the Task (optional).
  3. Set the start day and time, and the end day and time.
  4. Pick the type: Pomo (then how many Pomos) or Stopwatch (the length is worked out for you).
  5. Add a Focus note if you like, then tap Save.

Note: The end has to be at least a minute after the start, or Save stays grey.

Delete a session

  1. On a computer, hover the session in Focus record. A ✕ shows at the right end of the row.
  2. Click the ✕. The message at the bottom reads Focus record deleted.
  3. Click Undo in that message if it was the wrong one.

Note: On a phone the ✕ stays hidden, so deleting is easiest from a computer draft.

Open Statistics

Phone

  1. Tap the Menu tab.
  2. Under Focus, tap Statistics.

Computer

  1. Click your picture at the top of the app bar.
  2. Pick Statistics.

Pick a period and a view

  1. Use the dropdown by the title: This week, Last week, This month, Last month or This year.
  2. Pick Overview, Tasks or Focus under the title.
  • Overview: Done, Late right now, Focus sessions, Habits kept and Day streak, with bars for what was done each day, by Area, finished projects and Upkeep.
  • Tasks: projects finished, to-dos done, what’s late and the daily average, with the full list of what got finished.
  • Focus: Pomos, focus time, sessions and the average, with focus each day and what you focused on.

Note: Projects and Area to-dos count on the day they were finished. Steps don’t have a finished day, so they aren’t counted. Upkeep counts on its last done day.

Questions

Can the other person see my focus time?

No. Your focus record only shows for you.

Why doesn’t my Timer show up?

The plain Timer is never saved. Only Pomo blocks and Stopwatch sessions are.

I skipped a focus block. Is it lost?

No. The minutes you did are saved, but it counts as 0 Pomos.
