Microsoft slowly teases the integrated applications that will arrive with Windows 11, but most of them have been criticized for only aesthetic changes. Microsoft Paint is one of the few who get more than rounded corners or a support of dark themes, but even this has not satisfied Windows users or venerable fans paint program. The Windows 11 clock application, however, stands out from the crowd because of a new feature that apparently deserved its own blog post.
Panos Panay has already displayed in upcoming discussion sessions of the enhanced clock application, but Microsoft is now more and more deeply in the new application productivity. The application of the clock already has timers in Gogo, but the sessions of the concentration put a new rotation on this idea with a dashboard that can perform productivity enthusiasts blush with Glee. And, of course, you can integrate it with other services, including Spotify.
Focus sessions are like a unique shop for visualizing and performing your tasks in an environment that encourages productivity. You have a single timer to operate your engines by starting a focus session for a defined time period with a short pause after. Users of Pomodoro’s popular productivity technique will feel at home here.
The highlight functionality, however, is the integration of the clock with Spotify. Relying on research that points to how audio helps reduce distraction and improve focus, focus sessions can connect to a user’s Spotify account and play music that will help them Enter “the area”. Microsoft has not detailed if users might select their own music or if only the theme playlists will be available.
Clock development sessions also integrate with Microsoft to do, so you will not lose time or tilting inertia between applications. A dashboard also provides a quick overview of how you have been productive, depending on the goals you have defined. Ironically, the clock application is the built-in Windows 11 application where Microsoft has not demonstrated the possibility of switching between clear and dark themes.
