Swipe to adjust the duration, and double-tap to start, pause, or resume. FOCUS, THEN TAKE A BREAK Use focus mode to move between a work session and a short break. Adjust the work and break durations in Settings. FIND YOUR GLOW Choose a color theme to suit the moment, and change the app language from Settings. Some themes require an in-app purchase.
