Focus Mode answers one question: what should I do next? The point is not more filters. The point is fewer decisions. On a light day of 3 tasks or fewer, the Top 3 card hides. Your list is already the answer.
Feature
Your daily Top 3, plus a timer that keeps the day from sprawling.
Focus Mode narrows your attention to the most important tasks now. You do not scan the whole backlog every time. When you are ready, the built-in Pomodoro timer is one tap away.
Focus Mode is part of TapTidy Pro.
Rank locally
TapTidy surfaces the day's top tasks using due-date proximity and the priority signals already in your system. There is no cloud scoring pass required to open the screen.
Stay in motion
When you are ready to work, the Pomodoro timer is already part of the same surface. 6 timer skins run on web and Android. Each skin has its own palette, background, particles, font, and a hand-drawn tomato mascot. All are rendered natively with no third-party assets.
Why it helps
Focus Mode is not for show. It helps you keep working.
It works best when the system holds more work than you can do today. The interface should not increase that pressure.
Morning reset
Open one screen. See the day's critical work. Start, instead of sorting tasks for 10 minutes.
Widget glance
The Top 3 also shows in the widget. You see the day's focus without opening the whole app.
Timer continuity
Timed work and breaks stay tied to the same focus surface rather than sending you to another disconnected tool.
