This tutorial will show you how to switch between a quick view or full view of a focus session timer from the Clock app for your account in Windows 11.
Focus is a Windows feature designed to help you stay on task by minimizing distractions. Whether you're working on an important project, studying for an exam, or simply need some uninterrupted time, Focus can help you maintain your concentration and productivity.
When you start a focus session, a focus timer appears on the desktop. To use additional focus tools in the Clock app, expand the focus timer to get the full view of the Clock app.
A focus timer in quick view is a small widget on your desktop that can be resized and moved. It will always stay on top of other windows.
