App Lifecycle Events

Whenever the app is minimized the timer will remember the time that the app was closed, and when the app is resumed, the timer will account for the time between these events.

Focus & Break States

The timer switches between focus mode and break mode.

• While the app is open either in the foreground or background, it will remember the duration of the user's last focus and break sessions and reset the timer to those durations when switching to those states.

User Session Tracking

• Whenever a focus session is completed, if the user is logged in, it'll track the session on the API and the mobile database.
