Is there a way to reset statistics? I'd like to make fresh starts sometimes. I'm sure many would want it as well.

@__developer_ Yes, it's possible to reset statistics. Unfortunately, there's no integrated simple way to do it, yet. But we're planning on implementing it soon. Please write us at support@flowapp.info so we can assist you with resetting your statistics. 🙂

Feedback: 1- It's annoying to have flow as a popup. It would be better if it was attached to the top bar. 2- I want one simple shortkey to start and pause the flow Shortkeys + attached menu would improve my flow. (intended pum)

@mextremartini Hi, thanks for your feedback! 🙂 The idea is to be able to easily drag the Flow window where you need it to be. For example, when using multiple monitors, users can simply keep the Flow window open on a secondary screen. You don't have to open the Flow window to start or stop the timer. Simply right-clicking on the menu bar icon does the trick. You can use ‘cmd+f’ to start or stop a Flow or break. Use ‘cmd+h’ to hide Flow. For now, you need to have the Flow window selected in order for the shortcuts to work. In an upcoming update, we'll implement global hotkeys with which you can control Flow from anywhere in your system. If you have more suggestions or feedback, feel free to write us at support@flowapp.info. ☺️

Loving this app. Just switched over from Be Focused. So far i really like the clean simple design and the ability to block apps during pomo sessions. One suggestions I'd like to see is the ability to customize work and break times. Prefer the 45/15 mins, and there's only max of 10 mins. Any plans for making those changes? Referring this to few other entrepreneurs.

@akeeljabber Hi Akeel, thank you so much for your kind words! Yes, we plan to implement custom duration options in the future. We'll also add a 15 mins break option (for short breaks as well as for the long break) with an upcoming update, so stay tuned. ☺️

I love the integration you're working on between the Mac and iPhone app. For someone who jumps back and forth between devices constantly, this is really powerful.

@baotri Thank you so much, Baotri! 😊

?makers Will you consider providing a hotkey toggle? Or even better integrate it into Alfred4? Developers like to work with keyboard for speed. I think you can relate to that very well. :)
Lea Hirschmüller
@tmasjc Hi Thomas, thank you for your suggestions! We're already working on global hotkeys, so you can expect to see this feature in the near future. Regarding the Alfred integration: this is a great idea! It's already on our list. ☺️

Great design! Are you planning to add a mini-feature which hides timer in the menu bar?
Lea Hirschmüller
@paulius_aleksiunas Hi Paulius, we can't hide the timer in the menu bar because Flow is a Mac Menu Bar App. But we plan to implement alternative, less distractive menu bar icons to choose from. 🙂
