Juno Help Center

Practical guides for the daily Juno workflows: capture work, connect calendars and inboxes, plan a realistic day, focus, and close the loop.

How-tos & Workflows

Focus mode

Run a single-task focus session with a timer and minimal UI.

1 min read

Start a focus session

  1. Open the task you want to work on.
  2. Click Focus in the task actions.
  3. Juno opens the focused view and starts tracking time for that task.

Juno hides distractions, shows the active task and timer, and tracks elapsed time against your estimate.

During focus

  • The timer shows the active task and elapsed time.
  • You can pause for a real interruption.
  • Subtasks remain visible so you can check them off as you go.
  • When focus and break reminders are enabled, Juno can nudge you after each work interval.

End a focus session

  • Done completes the task and moves to the next planned task, if there is one.
  • Skip stops tracking this task and moves on without completing it.
  • Pause stops the timer while you take a break. Use Exit focus to return to the planner.

The session feeds into your daily progress, which you'll review during the shutdown ritual.

Settings to know

In Settings -> Focus you can:

  • Enable focus and break reminders.
  • Choose reminders-only or strict pomodoro mode.
  • Set work, short-break, and long-break durations.
  • Enable sounds on reminder.
  • Use a floating focus bar on supported web or desktop environments.

Tips

  • Use a time estimate that reflects the work you intend to do.
  • Don't multi-focus. The point is to commit to one task.
  • If a task is hard to start, try defining a smaller next step or adding subtasks.
