Timer Changes for Better UX
mboyadjian
There are a couple of suggestions I have for the task timer, as I have started to use it more often.
- Desktop Notification + Sound: It would be nice to have a Taskade notification on the desktop and a notification sound when a timer is completed for a task. I think this could really improve the experience because, let's face it, email notifications alone aren't always reliable—especially if you turn them off while you're deep into your work. With a quick pop-up and a sound, you'll know right away when a timer finishes, keeping you on track.
- Pre-planned Timer Workflow: To enhance task management and workflow, I think it is worth considering the option to set a timer that starts when you press "Start," rather than starting right when you create a task timer. This feature is particularly beneficial for those who organize their day by creating time blocks in advance. By allowing timers to be set for specific durations ahead of time, users can seamlessly transition into focused work sessions. This method provides greater flexibility and convenience, ensuring a smooth workflow. As a result, users can manage their time more effectively and ensure tasks are executed as planned, aligning with their pre-scheduled timeline. In most cases, it is not convenient to create the workflow and work on the task at the same time.
Thanks!
