What it shows

Small

• During a focus session: the sessions done today out of your goal, the time left, a small ring and the task.
• During a break: the time left and the task.
• When no session runs, or one has ended: today's sessions out of your goal, and Start focus or Start break.

Medium

• When no session runs: "Ready when you are.", today's focus time, and Start focus.
• During a session: the ring with the time left, the task, when the session started, today's focus time and a bar for each session of your goal.
• When a session has ended: Focus complete or Break complete, and Start break or Start focus.

The buttons

• Start focus and Start break start the next session.
• Skip ends a focus session and starts the break. During a break, Start focus ends it and starts a focus session.
• Pause and Resume appear during a focus session when Pause is turned on in Settings.
• The medium widget also has Stop, which ends the session.

A focus session started from the widget has no task. To tag it, open the app and pick one. See Tasks.
