Day View
The calm home screen — what's happening now, what's next, and nothing else.
Day View is where Fokus opens: a full-screen photo, the time, the weather, and one card telling you what deserves your attention right now. It's deliberately the opposite of a dense dashboard — a place to land between tasks, not another thing to manage.
The center panel is Day at a Glance. When something is scheduled right now, you'll see it front and center — with its time block, priority, bucket, and a mini timeline of the surrounding half hours. When nothing is scheduled, it gently suggests a break or a plan. Underneath, the NEXT line always tells you what's coming and in how long.
Use the left and right arrows (or swipe) to flip through the panel's cards — upcoming tasks and events for the rest of the day:
The focus menu
The three-dot menu in the top-right corner holds the distraction dials:
- Change background — a fresh ambient photo whenever you want one.
- Immersive mode — hides the panels, leaving just the greeting, date, and clock. The dock collapses too (down to a Focus music player for your saved Spotify playlists). Toggle it with Alt+I.
- Full screen — takes over the whole display, browser chrome and all.
- Deep Fokus & DND — the outward-facing half of focus: with Slack or Microsoft Teams connected, it flips your presence to Do Not Disturb there while you work.
Good to know
- The greeting, clock, weather, and background all follow your local time and location — Day View doubles nicely as a desk clock on a second monitor.
- Fokus can rotate through beautiful nature photography; if you'd rather choose the theme, that's in Settings → General.
- Day View is the fastest way to answer "should I start something new or is a meeting about to interrupt me?" — that's what the NEXT line is for.
- Completing your current task from here (click its circle) immediately promotes the next thing into the spotlight.
