You can now structure your work with πŸ… timed focus sessions!

ongoing timer
in two places:
  • In the Akiflow header
  • Floating on your computer screen -> yes, you can move it!
β˜‘οΈ Tasks
: The timer will show your
current task
in calendar, so the first task in your Today's "
Schedule in calendar
" section, based on your sorting option.
β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή Oops:
If that section is empty..well you should plan tasks in your calendar;) but until then, the timer will show your
To-Dos and Overdue tasks.
🎧 Settings:
Set your timer with the
settings
that work for you. The default is
25m focus, 15m break
, repeated 4 times.
πŸ”” Sound:
With a nice
sound,
it’ll remind you when it’s time to start a break or focus period.

πŸ””
Notifications:
Your desktop and mobile apps (download them here!) will notify you of any Aki messages.
Automations πŸ€–
Aki can automatically:
  • 🌀️ Deliver your
    daily weather
    forecast each morning.
  • πŸ“…
    Review your schedule
    for conflicting events.
  • πŸ’Έ
    Monitor Bitcoin prices
    and alert you when it drops below $80k.
  • πŸ“ Provide a
    daily overview
    of your schedule.
  • πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ
    Schedule your morning run based on tomorrow’s weather:
    For example, β€œEvery day at 7:30 AM, check tomorrow's weather in Barcelona. If it's good, add a morning run to my calendar and remind me.”
The possibilities are endless! ✨ You can set up any of Aki’s existing capabilities (tasks, events, scheduling, weather, currency tracking) to run automatically on a recurring basis. The only thing automations can’t do is create other automations.
How to Use It πŸ› οΈ
Simply phrase your request with timing words like:
  • ⏰ "Remind me of this every day"
  • πŸ“… "Do that every Monday"
If multiple automations run within 15 minutes of each other,
Aki will smartly combine them
into a single message to avoid spam.
You'll receive automations on
Aki in apps only
(not on WhatsApp!)
