Interface

Menu Bar

The FocusMo status-bar icon — planning popover, context menu, and update status.

FocusMo lives in your menu bar as a small target icon (it adapts to light/dark mode).

Clicks

ActionResult
Left-click (Productivity Mode)Opens the planning popover — timeline + task list

The context menu

  • Quick Access — opens the command palette
  • Show Main Window (⇧⌘M)
  • Daily Goal Dashboard, Activity Tracking — jump to those sections
  • Show/Hide Floating Button
  • Update section (see below)
  • Preferences (⌘,) and Quit (⌘Q)

Free users also see trial/license entries (Start Free Trial, Purchase License, Activate License). In Zen Mode the menu is minimal, with "Switch to Productivity Mode" on top.

Update status

FocusMo's silent auto-updater surfaces its state right in the menu:

  • A live status line: Checking for Updates… → Update Available → Downloading → Update Ready.
  • Install vX and Relaunch when ready — during an active session it's disabled and reads "Install after session" so an update never interrupts your focus.
  • A badge dot on the menu bar icon: orange while downloading, green when ready to install.
  • After updating, the menu briefly shows "Updated to vX.Y" to confirm.
  • Check for Updates is always available.
