Settings has a Study card: the Pomodoro profiles, and a switch "Show
the Pomodoro timer while studying" (on unless switched off). Like the
appearance, it is the device's own setting.

- Above every studied card (but a matching one): the PDF it came from,
its tags on one line ("+2 tags" for the rest) or "Add tags", and a
menu to tag, edit or delete it; the session follows (an edited card
shows as saved, a deleted one leaves the round).
- On phones, a front/back or vocabulary card swiped right is rated
Good, left Bad; it tilts over the colour it heads for, and springs
back when let go early.
- The session's settings: "Settings", a 48 dp Save that warns mid-round
("Heads up!"), steppers in an outlined box ("20 / day", "5 / 50"),
the order in an outlined dropdown, the chosen tags with the rest
behind "Filter by tags" / "+3 more".
- A studyset's study options: Save above Reset to defaults, the
description small, reviews a day in steps of 25.
- One stepper look everywhere (study, Pomodoro profiles), its buttons
"Decrease" and "Increase".

The study session, reworked:
- Ratings are coloured tiles with a face each (frown, meh, smile,
laugh), when the card comes back below them with a clock ("in 1
min", "in 3 days"), always shown, so a card can be rated without
revealing it; at most 540 dp wide, centred.
- Cards are centred in a section card: the question large, then a line
with 24 dp on either side and the answer a size smaller, or "Show
answer" 40 dp below; a tap anywhere on the card shows or hides the
answer. Read-only rich text takes a text style and an alignment.
- Words show their reading small above the expression once answered,
and several meanings numbered.
- Choice, matching and map cards: Check below the card, the ratings in
its place once checked; options marked before their text; matching
lists the categories first, then what is left to place; the map
fills the card with one caption below it.
- Header and progress on a band of their own; title start-aligned,
the Pomodoro timer only to watch, the back-first toggle in every
state; leaving a round under way asks first.
- Cramming goes round the round; back is there with two cards or more,
skipping always.
- The end of a round: the cards done of those due, accuracy (OK counts
half) and time, over the whole session.

Found on the Pixel 9a with v0.2.1:
- Do Not Disturb while focusing: switching it on opens Android's list
of apps with Do Not Disturb access; once the person allowed it there
and came back, the switch was still off, saying the app may not, and
had to be switched on again. The profile's sheet now looks again when
the app comes back, and the switch goes on by itself once allowed.
- The timer's notification, posted while Android was still asking for
leave to notify at the first start, showed nowhere until the timer
next changed. It is now posted again as soon as notifications are
allowed.

From the snap, nothing showed in the top bar: AppArmor refused the
item's bus name (dbus_bind org.freedesktop.StatusNotifierItem-<pid>-1),
which snapd's desktop plug doesn't grant, contrary to what the research
found. The item is now laid out as libayatana-appindicator lays itself
out, within what snapd v2.77's desktop-legacy plug allows: at
/org/ayatana/NotificationItem/halkyon_learn, the only path from which
the label's signal (XAyatanaNewLabel) may come, and registered with the
watcher by that path under the connection's own name, binding no name
at all. Checked against GNOME's watcher here: it registers as the
system's own indicators do.

Found testing on the laptop: deleting the chosen profile left the
choice pointing at it, and a timer running on it went on with the
deleted profile's lengths and name. Deleting it now chooses the first
profile left, and the timer goes on with that one, its phase keeping
its end.
The top bar's suggestion didn't show with the app started from
VSCodium's terminal, which sets XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP to Unity for what
it starts. The app now asks the bus whether GNOME's Shell is there.

Decided 2026-10-07: where GNOME's top bar shows no icons (the
AppIndicator extension missing or off), the timer shows in the app
alone, and no notification stands in for it. The Pomodoro card says
that the timer can count down in the top bar, with a button that asks
GNOME Shell to switch the extension on where it is installed or to
install it (GNOME's own dialog), or opens its page on
extensions.gnome.org where Shell can't be asked; until the person says
not to suggest it again. An app can't install or switch on a Shell
extension by itself. The alert at a phase's end stays.

A review of the timer found:
- Stop in the notification with the app swiped away took the timer
away there, but the app showed it again at its next start. The
service now leaves a mark the app takes when it starts, and the timer
it kept is forgotten.
- Pause, Resume and Skip did nothing with the app gone: since Android
12 a service may not start an activity from a notification's button.
The notification is posted again with buttons that open the app.
- A timer kept while the app was closed was shown as it was before it
caught up, so its ended phase alerted a second time. It is now caught
up before it first shows.
- Dart's timers sleep with the device, so a phase that ended while the
phone or laptop slept went unnoticed until the app came back. While a
phase runs the timer looks every 15 seconds, and on Android the
alarm's receiver wakes it too.
- On Linux, changes that came at once overlapped on the bus (an
indicator registered twice, notifications left over, a ticking label
never stopped); they now go one at a time. The indicator registers
again when GNOME's watcher restarts, and with a watcher that only
turns up later.
- Changing the running profile could put the timer outside its cycle
("Focus 6 of 4", the Live Update's bar past its end); where it is
stays within the new cycle, and a phase waiting at its full length
takes the new length. A countdown past its end shows 00:00.
- Writes of the kept timer go one at a time, and a closed timer arms no
more timers.
- The alert no longer renames the timer's notification channel, and a
German hint said the alert came at the device's end.

Home has a Pomodoro timer (decided 2026-10-07, after Goodtime): the
profile it runs, chosen there while no timer is set, the time left of
the phase, and Start, Pause or Resume, Skip and Stop. While studying, a
small countdown sits in the study screen's header, and a tap pauses it
or goes on. A phase that ends leads to the next, which starts by itself
where the profile says so and otherwise waits, paused at its full
length.
Profiles follow the person to every device, in their settings (schema
4, still written as schema 3 while the profiles are as they come, so
older apps go on reading the settings): Classic, 25 minutes of focus,
5 of break and 15 after four, and 52/17 without long breaks, built in;
both can be changed, more added and deleted, from Home's card or from
Settings. A profile can start breaks and focus by themselves, and keep
the device quiet while focusing. The running timer is the device's own,
kept in the person's folder: closed and opened again, the app catches
up with the phases that ran out meanwhile.
Android: the app's own foreground service (Kotlin, specialUse, as
Goodtime does) shows an ongoing notification counting the phase down,
with Pause or Resume, Skip and Stop; on Android 16 it is a Live Update,
its progress bar the profile's cycle, each phase a segment, focus in
cobalt and breaks in copper. An exact alarm (USE_EXACT_ALARM) alerts
with sound and vibration when the phase ends, also with the app
closed, and Do Not Disturb goes on while focusing once the person
allowed it, the filter before given back afterwards. No notification
plugin: flutter_local_notifications has Live Updates only in a
prerelease that needs compileSdk 37; androidx.core 1.18, which the
build resolved already, has every API needed.
Linux, over the session bus (package:dbus, already in the build): where
the desktop shows icons in its top bar (GNOME with the AppIndicator
extension, which Ubuntu has built in; KDE) the timer counts down there,
the buttons in the icon's menu, as a StatusNotifierItem written in Dart
on the names and paths the snap's desktop plug allows; elsewhere a
notification with the buttons says until when the phase runs. An alert
with sound ends each phase while the app runs, and GNOME's banners stay
off while focusing, through gsettings. xdg-desktop-portal's Background
status, the planned fallback, serves Flatpaks only.
