"Minutes only" no clear clue that the countdown started #218

Closed oluc closed 3 years ago

oluc commented 3 years ago

when using with "Minutes only", there's no real clear clue that the count actually started

it's confusing.

(maybe you could display something when the countdown is not running, that would vanish when it starts. maybe just a string like "tap to start", or should it display "24", or something else?)

The notification icon will appear in the top left when starting a session. That's how you can check if the session is active.

right, but not in fullscreen mode.

(I'd like to use it in the most minimalistic way, with no distraction : no seconds counting, no notifications, just the minutes.)

Here's a solution: In fullscreen mode, touch the screen once to reveal the top bar with the notification icon and it will automatically hide. Sorry but I don't plan to change this at the moment but you could do it yourself if you want to and use a custom build of Goodtime.
