---Version 1.3.0---
Clearer end-of-stretch chime
The end chime now uses the same sound as the switch chime, rung three times, so it's just as easy to hear. It also plays the moment your last stretch ends instead of a few seconds later.
Choose your chime sound and volume
Pick from Bell, Bright chime, Singing bowl, or Wood block, set the volume, and preview both chimes in Settings.
Fixes
The end chime now plays even when your break is the same length as your stretch time.
---Version 1.2.0---
Audio chime for stretch switches
A gentle bell now plays each time it's time to move to the next stretch, plus a completion tone when your stretch session ends. Turn it off anytime in Settings.
---Version 1.1.0---
Timer now runs in the background
The focus and stretch timers continue counting down even when the popup is closed. You can keep browsing normally and Dharana will notify you when it's time to stretch.
Stretch timer fixed
The per-stretch countdown on the stretch page now works correctly from start to finish.
Auto-start during work hours
Set your work hours and days in Settings and Dharana starts your first focus session automatically each morning, cycling through focus, stretch, and break until your workday ends. No more remembering to hit Start.
