Break timer

[Qasym]

Dear, super-productivity creators!
Thank you for developing such a wonderful app!

I have one issue with the break timer in the 7.10.1 version of the app. The issue is the break time notifications.
Let's say I am currently focusing on a task, then I decide to take a break, I pause the work timer, however app still thinks that I am working and notifies me to take a break.
That sometimes become really annoying, is there a way to keep receiving break notifications but not when the work timer is off?

Hey there! You mean with the pomodoro integration, right? I think there is already an open issue somewhere, though I am unable to find it now.... :)

No, it's not the pomodoro integration.

When you add tasks for today, you can start focus session and it tracks your time. With default settings, after an hour, you receive a notification (something of a similar meaning) "you've been focusing without break for 1h, take a break to be efficient in the long run".

My issue is, I do follow the advice in the notification and pause my focus session, however the app doesn't count it as a break.

Ah I see! Thanks for the explanation! There are two things that reset the break reminder (maybe the translation is also a bit off, not sure):

1. The idle dialog appears and you choose break there
2. You press on the little clock icon on the right of "Without break: x"

Hey, am new user ( an I take a lot of breaks )
I create a Chronometre Counter for my breaks.
When I click on, I would like to active the Break Timer...
I find options to start the Pomodoro pause timer... or a specific task but not the SP breaker timer.

-> Say to SP am doing a pause (am unfocused right now) should help SP not ask me to take a break when am allready a full breaker...

An other option should be :
Add an option in the popup for not tracked time to say, its was a break.

Thanks you are amazing
