Getting Started

Learn the basics: start a focus session, add a task, use fullscreen, and get comfortable with Focero.

• What is Focero?Focero is an aesthetic study timer and browser-based focus workspace that brings timers, clocks, Study Rooms, audio, tasks, saved Focus Spaces, sharing, and Report into one place.
• Start a focus sessionUse the main timer to start, pause, resume, reset, and move between Focus and Break without leaving your focus space.
• Use focus tasksKeep a short task list beside the timer, choose the task you are working on now, and mark work complete without opening another app.
• Use fullscreenFullscreen removes extra browser chrome and gives the timer or clock more room when you want a cleaner display while studying or presenting.

Timers & Focus

Choose a focus routine, change the timer display, set alerts, and use clocks, widgets, and focus companions.

• Choose a focus routineRoutines set the Focus and Break lengths together so you can switch between common session patterns without rebuilding the timer.
• Change the timer displayChange how time looks without changing the timer itself by choosing a display style, font, color, and visual size.
• Set focus and break alertsChoose what Focero plays when a Focus or Break session finishes, set the alert volume, and test a sound before you use it.
• Use clock and time toolsFocero includes Clock, Countdown, Count Up, flip-clock, classroom, exam, and presentation-oriented time displays built on shared controls.
• Use Focero Widgets in NotionFocero Widgets are lightweight timer and clock surfaces that can be opened directly or embedded in Notion and other iframe-compatible pages.
• Choose a Focus CompanionFocus Companions are character versions of the Pomodoro widget that keep the same simple focus flow while giving each session a distinct study buddy.

Sounds & Environments

Build the atmosphere with backgrounds, ambient sounds, music, Soundspaces, Study Rooms, and the Virtual Cafe.

• Change your backgroundChoose a built-in Focero background and adjust the overlay so the timer remains readable over bright or detailed scenes.
• Use your own backgroundAdd your own image, GIF, or supported video as a personal Focero background and keep that media stored on your device.
• Use ambient soundsOpen Audio to play focus sounds, search the library, adjust each layer separately, and mix several sounds into one background soundscape.
• Save a SoundspaceA Soundspace saves a combination of ambient sounds and their volume levels so you can return to the same mix later on this device.
• Use music and playlistsUse the Music and Playlists tabs to add Spotify, YouTube, SoundCloud, or Apple Music links, or choose one of Focero’s ready-to-play focus selections.
• Use a Study RoomStudy Rooms combine Focero timing, background, audio, and display controls into ready-made environments for different focus moods.
• Use the Virtual CafeVirtual Cafe is a room-style focus experience with dedicated cafe scenes, a compact timer stage, shared audio controls, and a minimal fullscreen state.

Focus Spaces & Sharing

Save a setup that works for you, reopen it later, and share the same focus setup with someone else.

• What can I save in a Focus Space?A Focus Space is a reusable saved setup containing timing, background, audio, and display settings so you can return to the same focus environment later.
• Can I share my Focero setup?Yes. Sharing creates a fixed snapshot of a Focus Space that another person can open by link without changing your original saved setup.

Report & Account

Review your focus activity, understand what stays on this device, and use account sync where it is supported.

• What does Focero Report track?Report shows the focus time and sessions recorded on this device, with Overview, Sessions, and Focus Calendar views plus your current streak.
• What does Focero sync across devices?Signing in is optional. In the current version, cross-device sync is for Focus Spaces; timer, audio, background, tasks, and local Report history remain usable without an account.
• Understand local data and privacyFocero keeps many everyday focus settings on your device and only uses account-backed cloud features where a feature such as Focus Space sync requires them.
