What's new

1.0.0-beta.48

Your tasks now sync to your Mac and Windows PC.

• New: on your computer, Settings → Tasks turns on task sync, or unlocks your tasks by approving it from your phone or entering your recovery code. Your tasks stay end-to-end encrypted. Needs Pro.
• New: when another of your devices asks to see your tasks, your computer can approve it too.

1.0.0-beta.47

The menu bar on Mac and the tray on Windows work better.

• Fixed: Start break in the menu bar or tray now starts your break right after focus ends, without opening the window.
• Fixed: in a small window, the time stays inside the ring instead of running over its edge.
• Better: on a Mac, the menu bar icon is a ring that moves with your session, emptying during focus and filling during a break, and shows pause bars when it's paused. It matches the menu bar in light and dark mode.

1.0.0-beta.46

Focus Ring fits short screens better.

• Fixed: on a short screen, such as an iPhone Duo folded or an iPhone SE, the timer's ring gets a little smaller so Pause and End stay above the task list instead of going under it.
